At the risk of prompting more bad jokes about eating in the middle of the
ocean, I've been asked to post an important announcement about the September
6 mid-Atlantic picnic:
Kim Girton, picnic organizer extraordinaire, has been struck by one of those
nasty computer viruses going around and has been forced to change her email
address. If you are interesting in attending, please write to her at her
new email -- kg11053(a)yahoo.com.
(Kim is back in the Sinister nursery since switching to the new email
address, so all future picnic announcements will be sent off-list.)

Dear Sinister
This is a very short post (slap wrist) but it's chock full of content.
Specifically, the new album cover shown on mtv.comhttp://www.mtv.com/bands/az/belle_sebastian/353763/album.jhtml
is different from the one shown on amazon.co.uk
http://images-eu.amazon.com/images/P/B0000C84MZ.02.LZZZZZZZ.jpg
So which is the real one? Or are there different US/UK versions that
we'll need to fork out for? Huh?

I found this little review of the new Belle and Sebastian album, where it
mentions a few interesting things, notably the song "Piazza, New York
Catcher":
http://www.parasol.com/catalog/newcart.asp?zoomtitle=65663&RRETURN=words%3D…
On the basis of this article I thought I'd "imagineer" and "makeupify" the
lyrics to Piazza, New York Catcher. I think it goes something like this:
::::::::::::::::::::::::
Piazza, New York Catcher
++++++++++++++++++++++++
You're the pitcher,
I'm the catcher,
You're John Major,
I'm Margaret Thatcher.
Why don't you come over to Number Ten?
We can watch Bergerac on the telly.
I'll never get over,
Our night in Kidderminster.
You're my Chancellor,
I'm your Prime Minister.
Why don't I come over to Number Eleven?
We can watch Columbo on the telly.
<<10-minute tuba and castanet solo>>
Forget about Norma,
I'll forget about Dennis.
But I'll never get over,
The size of your hampster.
Why don't we fly over to New York?
We can stay in and have a pi(a)zza.
<<Sound of schoolboys baiting badgers to fade..>>
::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::
I like this song a lot. It showcases the band's new thrash-metal sound. I'm
not sure about the tuba solo, though. I blame Trevor Horn.
On the radio yesterday evening (or "morning" as you call it in America - ha
ha! You crazy yanks!!) I heard B+S on the radio. They were ace. Especially
ace were the full version of Scooby Driver and Lord Anthony. Unfortunately,
Lord Anthony still doesn't appear to have the verses about the naughty dog,
but it still sounds good. You know, I reckon Lord Anthony is at least seven
years old. He'll be in long trousers soon.

Hello Sinister,
Still coming off my B&S high this past week. I was wondering if anyone has
documented the shows either by audio, video, or photos (digital or real)
that people are willing to share. Of course, I will fully reimburse any
out-of-pocket costs you might incur.
Please e-mail! Thanks guys!
Cheers,
Ian

Hello,
Crikey, you lot like a fight don't you.
I haven't been offended by anything I've read so far. It's a bit of a laugh
really.
I wasn't unhappy that day, I didn't care if I did the sex thing with Sarah
or not. It didn't matter. I just melted away to those beautiful words.
Can we all agree on beautiful words?
I was unhappy though. I was unhappy that I couldn't bring back those
innocent days of my youth. Treasure them kids, you'll be unhappy when you
lose them too.
Here are some more beautiful words; Shakespear's:
"What's in a name? that which we call a rose
By any other name would smell as sweet;"
So twee, indie, chamber pop. It don't matter. Love it like you love your
partner.
Love to you all, each and every one.
I'll see if my friend James will burn A CD for all you who have asked for a
tape.
Bye
Paulo
PS - I like lots of other music too, anyone into: Filthy Acid Techno - Hmm
Liberator DJ's, Big Beat (a bit), Indie, Old Indie (Smiths, Echo and the
Bunnymen), Manchester (Stone Roses, Mondays), Banghra, Roysopp, Air, Some
French rapping is really cool, fogotten the names though, other stuff I
can't remember?
I used to like a splash of Iron Maiden, but I was about 13.
I bloody hate Pop Idol though. Jimi Hendrix would never have been picked.

Hullo, it's me again.
Will people get upset if I post the lyrics to Stay Loose? I'll mark the
email with BIG LETTERS if you're trying not to open your presents till
christmas. I was trying too as well, but I lasted about five seconds.
For anyone who doesn't know the lyrics for Lord Anthony, we had a go at
working them out a few years ago. The first attempt was by Chris "Bendy"
Leonard:
>Lord Anthony, your little dog
>Keeps trying to lick my face
>It's a disgrace yes a disgrace.
>Trained dogs should not jump on boys
>Are you stupid?
>You're not fit to have a dog Lord Anthony.
It eventually turned out that Christopher's version was spot on, except for
the bit about the dog.
Peter "Windy" Miller had a go with this:
>------------------------------------------------
>Ladybird pants and socks and vest,
>My mum buys them, she knows best,
>Clark's shoes shiny, scuff-proof, have you seen?
>I had to go on the tickly foot measuring machine,
>My smart new trousers, it's plain to see,
>Were made for poofters by Lord Anthony!
>
>Lord Anthony, Lord Anthony,
>Helped by gnomes and a little fairy!
>Lord Anthony, Lord Anthony
>Reasonable prices, but not for free!
>-------------------------------------------------
These were also very close to the real lyrics, apart from the verse and the
chorus.
I wonder what the proper lyrics are. Hmmm. Hmmmmmmm.... Oh! They're here:

bye!

hey folks
two posts in as many days... you lucky lucky things.
Inspired by Robin's post, I thought I'd throw my hat
into the ring. When I saw the track listings for the
new album, one of the song titles stuck out, and
reminded me of another song. Until the album is
released, I thought I'd just sing the new B&S song to
the tune of the old song. Feel free to join in if you
know what song I'm talking about.
*******************************************
"(I Believe In) Travellin' Light"
I believe in travellin' light
I believe in travellin' light
Wheels are made for rollin'
Mules are made to pack
I never seen a sight
that didn't look better lookin' back
I believe in travellin' light
Mud can make you pris'ner and
The plains can make you dry
Snow can burn your eyes
But only people make you cry
Home is made for comin' from
For dreams of goin' to
Which, with any luck
will never come true
I believe in travellin' light
I believe in travellin' light
Do I know where hell is?
Hell is in hello
Heaven is goodbye forever
It's time for me to go
I believe in travellin' light
I believe in travellin' light
When I get to heaven
Tie me to a tree
Or I'll begin to roam
And soon you'll know where I'll be
I believe in travellin' light
I believe in travellin' light
*******************************************
I think it works rather well, you may agree.
i thank yew
