My little nectarines:
Let me be the first to toss out an honestly flabbergasted "jigga what?"
in response to the announcement that Bright Eyes hisself will be
playing /on the same stage/ as Belle and Sebastian. The only reason I'm
sure it's not a joke is that you can't make that kind of shit up.
Seriously, now. Bright Eyes? What a waste. Of Space. Of breath. Of a
good hour of your life while you await Belle and Sebastiany goodness.
I'd be less surprised to hear it was Napalm Death or, like, someone
who's dead. Bright Eyes? Hopefully they'll have a crew nearby to mop of
the pool of faux-self-effacing arrogance so the band don't get any on
their shoes. That shit is toxic, yo.
In other (less grumpy) news, I moved. From urban New Jersey all the way
past suburban New Jersey into rural New Jersey. Very soon, I'm going to
have a car. Exciting stuff, I tells ya. But here's a shout-out to my
friends in JC: big up to JC; give it up for JC; sorry I haven't seen
any of you for like a month and a half. I'll come down and visit.
Please keep the TV as your free gift.
Also, mad love for the Sauer-Hewitt household down under. They're in
Australia, but it's funner to say 'down under' on account of the sexual
connotations it bears for us prudish types.
xes and os to spare,
Will Porter

It is when it was up you in the morning gently tickling on the window, and everything outside doesn´t really look like any other day and is changing shape any now and then. I can stand watching at it sitting on the bad and listening to that noise that sparse cars are making while running away in the early hours. Then the world doesn´t look so crowded when I can look the widow in the morning.
It is when I can smell the flowers and leaves and the ground and the grass. It just remembers me of some summer days of childhood when after the storm I use to rush in the woods to spot the trembling light filtered by the leaves of the chestnuts and the last few drops of rain hanged in their last breath to them. It´s when the autumn is coming that I wish I could walk back in my wood, to see the copper and the gold on the trees stretching their skinny arms to the open wide space. But I can still catch the smell of the ground in the way that leads me home. And that is good enough.
The wind was blowing in the thick green curtains my granddads used to repair from the sun in the warmth of the afternoon. And I dreamt to be a mariner. Like a character of an adventure book. Not a pirate. Just boarding to go somewhere far and mysterious. Somewhere hidden and undiscovered. But most of all staying in the middle of nothing surrounded by water, and the curtain, my sails, where dragger here and there and around, I was just stay starring at them, trying to catch the smell of the breeze, with my eyes half close, daydreaming of being god knows where. And that was enough to make my day. Until my grandmum would come and grab me, and lead me in the living the room from which I could loom at the thunderstorm, hanging on the armchair, as much as I am doing now. Was happy cause was cosy and the rain came rattling in.
Is going be a sunny week end the weather forecast said.
Take care

he could hear a voice but

if I'm so far from your

and time won't wait for us

Lucy seems to hink I'm handily out of he way, and that
she can introduce scandal and rumour at my expense
willy-nilly. But she fogets that WE ARE ALL ONE GLOBAL
COMMUNITY OF HUGGLEZ, and I can see everything she
types. I can even see her as she's typing. Is that a
bit of toast in your cleavage, dear?
That first picture of me is just horrible. And as for
the hot pants, it's just scurrilous gossip on a
slow-news day. They're perfectly innocent shorts,
bought for $2 at a goodwill store in Denver, and they
don't reveal anything they shouldn't. I'm not that
kind of boy!
I hope all the REPORTING BACK inspires people to come
to more picnics 'n' clubs, cos they really can be
super. And I don't *only* play r'n'b, either.
It's raining in Italy, and I'm about to go cycling.
Terrifying skidding/insane drivers/wrong side of the
road images are flashing before my mind, so I'm off to
steel myself. Think of me always.

hello,
this first bit is a request for information and is very uninteresting, but it gets more interesting after that, i promise.
I COULD DANCE ALL NIGHT LIKE I'M A SOUL BOY
A friend and I are going to try and organise a once a month or so club night, where we will play things like Belle and Sebastian, Jonathan Richman, The Go-Betweens, Nancy Sinatra, The Pastels, Beach Boys, Camera Obscura, Nina Simone...., and also some Electro Clash too. I was hoping some of you lovely people could give me some advice, warnings etc about starting a club night. Any info at all would be greatly appreciated.
NOW I'M IN A MILLION PIECES, PICKED UP FOR DELIBERATION
Recently I have been emailing chocolate companies complaining about their product. Here is an example:
"I recently purchased a *<insert name of chocolate bar here>* in a vending machine, and when I opened it the product had gone whiteish and had a much stronger cocoa flavour to it than normal. I am a big fan of *<insert name of chocolate bar here>*, and of most *<insert name of chocolate manufacturer here>* products (especially *<insert name of different chocolate bar here>* so was a little disappointed by this experience."
So far this little ploy has yielded me $10 in postal orders, $10 in supermarket vouchers and a $4 cheque. Next up I'm going to be "purchasing" several packets of soggy crisps.
I WANT TO PLAY FOOTBALL
Especially in the new Belle and Sebastian football shirt! Gosh they're cute - as is Stuart in the pics...
PERTH PICNICS
Mid-August seems like a nice time for a Perth picnic. You all know you want to, but I don't know that you want to, so tell me you want to and I shall organise something, somewhere, sometime.
HOT LINKS
Finally, if you go here: http://www.spunk.com.au/artists/belle.html
and scroll right down to the bottom there are some media downloads about a few B&S releases. There are some interesting bits and pieces.
love,
terry
