was mailed privately, apparently there's mild confusion over the london
blue soda social.
this is just to re-assure everyone that there is a social today, plus
this week we'll be screening in own private cinema (small but great
sound!) "Withnail and I".
lots of details at http://www.totalweb.co.uk/bluesoda/social.htm
cheers
hope your having fun

sinisterines tangerines
it's a beautiful day today.. finally, summer!
so, lessee.. every so often i get the urge to lug out all my old school
sassy magazines - remember when it was the coolest magazine around? i was
outraged when it turned into another ym clone.. anyway, in the bookstore
yesterday, i decided to buy -jane- magazine, created by the former sassy
editor with a few of the writers alongside.. ergg, not as good as sassy, but
okay i suppose... i still miss sassy. i could imagine b&s being a cute band
alert or something.. or stuart murdoch as an advice giver for the "dear boy"
column.. heehee.
anyway, as i was reading the magazine, christina kelly (the coolest writer
from sassy!) mentioned the documentary about bob dylan, -don't look back- .
i'm probably the last one to know that this is what b&s were referring to in
"like dylan in the movies".. she says that Dylan in the 60s documentary is
"a hilarious, sarcastic badass who toyed with the media and the cult of
celebrity, and stood for revolution and freedom of expression.." - it kind
of describes b&s too, no?
umm, what else.. oh, i've been playing this a lot lately, and i didnt notice
it with the other tigermilk chords, so - if you're so inclined to add this
to your b&s cover band repertoire, voila.. (it's really easy, and im
probably wrong :) )

band name from a book? well, isnt it a shame that roald dahl's wonderful
-charlie and the chocolate factory-'s veruca salt is attributed to that
band? if i myself started a band (i'm warning you now - this will happen
soon), i always liked the name the quentin blake's, after the illustrator of
many dahl books.. yes.
bye :)

top notch. The Trial is indeed a grand read. Take a copy wherever you go
and chuckles on buses and trains the world over will be yours forever...
>>>>>>>>>>
Hey! Did you people see the movie? Did I miss the laughable parts???
It's eerie, depressive, dark, scary.... Sure, there's irony all over, but not the
sort that makes you laugh... I liked it, but it wasn't the sort of thing to lift
my spirits...
It seems to me the book (which I didn't read) leaves a very different
impression compared to the movie. Did anyone read the movie AND see
the book (well, the other way round)?
So, which is it?
a) Orson Welles really turned everything around in the movie;
b) I didn't get any of it - the joke is too subtle;
c) You people are laughing at that weird paranoia stuff;
d) All of the above.
...
Is there a comic book version of The Trial?
Just wondering... :-)

hiya kiddos!
(even though you are possibly all older than me, apart from those ickle
brats joooooongggggeeeeeee and beeeetheeey, who are squirts.)
Chris Browning, I am going to contadict the others. I do not know
Galaxie 500 at all, but thanks to the PARTICIPATING! Alistair Eff, i
*do* know Felt. And bloodly marvellous they are as well. Then again, tis
only a mere tad that I know off them. But more than Galaxie 500. In my
opinion, Galaxie 500 make me think of these two things alternatively.
Galaxy bars AND washing powder.
gaaawd knows why at all.
but i'll tell you what. AIR ARE SPLENDIFEROUSLY FAB! i bought the single
today (albums! hahahhhahahaha, affording albums!!! thats funnny!
hahahahahahahhaha!), and its bloody ace. I also got an Undertones single
from the market of Preston, mainly cos it was 2 quid. and the
Undertones. Prestons cool for hoary old punk singles etcetera. Perhaps
due to the amount of hoary old punks lying about in Preston. Even though
there isn't many.
you looking at me?
I'M GOING NOW BYE!!!!!!

This is a tough one. I have the G500 box set, and love it. It is
definative, containing nearly everything they did, all releases, and some
neat live/demo stuff. Galaxie 500 really affected my musical taste and
style. I remember listenening to Today about 9 years ago, thinking that
it was okay to make music full of beauty, and not to be angry all the time.
But recently, I have discovered Felt via reccommendations of this list.
I like what I hear, and see Felt as a closer musical cousin (Or bastard
step-child, more likes), to B&S. I think the band woul dreccommend Felt.
Also, the G500 is re-mixed from the original studio albums. I have some
of it on the original Rough Trade releases, and when re-mixing for the box
set, Mr. Kramer toned down some of the ethereal delays, much to my chagrin.
I hop ehtis completely confused the issue for you.

LUCKIES! If you Londoners haven't seen LOW...By all means...go go go.
They're georgous. And tell them I say hi!!!
beth
P.S. Very odd that Low was mentioned today in a post, because in the midst
of a montage of hellish nightmares...last night I dreamed that someone gave
me a box of Low CDs....How very strange. Then someone got killed by huge,
killer spiders that wove nets of thick spiderwebbies and at the top, were
lion rampants woven in.....

I never watched this, but I did see him on Richard and Judy one morning,
talking about hair loss. "I dont have a problem with it", he said
through clenched teeth. Now then, how about Jason Orange in that
"killer net" the other night! Smoking! Drinking! Shagging!
Threatening behavior! And worse of all SWEARING! Oh how the
mighty have fallen. I feel abused. Howard would never let me down.
And was that Rusty Lee stripping? Gosh.
Big Country, eh? Was never much of a fan myself though
as a pup I did adore the tunes in "Restless Natives" (scots film
about the clown and the wolf man robbing buses of merkin tourists).
It's a great film, specially when the protagonist is cleaning up the
princes
street gardens, and the young run through shouting "C'MERE YA FANNY".
ho ho.
You'll be glad to hear that The Incredible String Band documentary
the other night was on first watch bemusing, but on second watch
entirely fantastic. Robin Williamson has the biggest physical head
I have ever seen, without being a joke.I like him even more now.
What a splendid fellow!
Have a happy,
Chris Corpus

Hi all,
since everyone is talking about converting people to B&S (a task not
altogether difficult), I might as well put in my 2 escudos:
- my dad listened to 30 seconds of it (a friend had lent it to me - ola'
Tiago!), asked what is this, I replied it was great, one week later he had
bought the CD, which saved me from the inevitable purchase.
- another friend, quite older - over 40 I think also fell in love with B&S (and
The Tindersticks, by the way).
- People my age keep ignoring it, some say it sounds old fashioned, which
I think is bullshit.
- I haven't given up, there are two or three targets which I'm sure will be
easy converts.
Do we get medals? Free Tigermilk bootlegs? What?...
- Pedro

I helped bring my friend into her 22nd b-day the other day by going on a
pub crawl of sorts. Since this is austin, it means going from one dive to
another adorned with picnic tables. Well, even so we only made it to 2
places before I decided I was going to play the part of God and finish 1
pint of Guinness and 1 pint of Fosters in nearly 30 minutes on top of what
I had already drank.. I'm the sort who easily bragged that I drank such
and such and felt fine afterwards. I didn't need help walking home, but
one of my friends decided to act as the rudder as I went one place to
another shuffling along. We got back to their place and I decided I needed
birthday cake. Lots of it. 30 minutes later, I felt the room spinning,
but not overly ill, but I decided to go into the bathroom just in case.
As to not gross out my audience, i won't finish that part. I'll just say I
was telling one of my friends not to clean that up because I wouldn't even
touch that, but she blamed herself for me getting drunk. There speaks a
true friend. I ended up sleeping over there and getting up at 5 in the
morning to go to work, but it was too much and I drove queasily back to my
house and sat at the table picking at a piece of bread and trying to drink
some water to get rid of the nausea I felt from every movement.
22 does suck. And I'm a near christmas baby. I was 22 last year and from
the 1st moment (I was studying in Glasgow and watched as everyone went home
for the holidays when my flight didn't leave until Sunday) until the last
day (in Austin watching the rockabilly band reverend Horton Heat by myself
at a club because everyone had once again gone home for the holidays and I
was in the process of moving back into town) it was all filled with pure
crap. It had a highlight or two, but I don't even want to go into that.
s.s.

I simply *adore* Sarah Crackers she is my idol you know... ..well, right
after Elizabeth Hurley. And Emma Peel. Oh yeah Audrey Hepburn too.
Anyway Sarah's up there somewhere...
In a tenuous B&S semi-related note, she used to go out with him from
Felt, and claims to have been a go-go dancer for their shows. (?!?) From
David's observation, guess it's been a while...
When are you Bay Area types gonna get yourselves sorted and organize a
picnic??? There are people in Wisconsin and DC, groups in Seattle and LA
doing them and nobody here is even interested? or was i just not
invited? pssshhh
