This one's total toss. Don't worry about it. You're not going to get a virus
by opening an email, running an executable attachment perhaps, but not
viewing a file.

Hello everyone. Mark Radcliffe has just confirmed that B&S are on the evening
session tonight, along with a session from Ocean Colour Scene (yes !!).
I hope it's a new session, but bet it's the one they broadcast in September.
Ben.

Future Pilot Aka is the brain-child of Sushil Dade, once of The Soup Dragons fame. But don't be put off by this, because, on record at least, they sound very interesting - weird keyboards, sampled vocals, eastern rhythms. Their first single, "Night Flight To Memphis" on Creeping Bent records (as far as I know it was their first) was a collaboration with Kim Fowley, who delivered his trade-mark drawl over the top a cyclic keybord sample, and it's dead good. They have a second single out on Creeping Bent (I can't remember the title) which is a reworking of The Revolutionary Corps of Teenage Jesus/Alan Vega tune, "Protection Rat" (the title's a corruption of that), which I'm sure you're all familiar with? I've no idea what they'll be like live.

This is patently NOT true. I have promoted quite a few gigs by
Spiritualized and Jason is no stranger to the catering room. Good rumour
though....
I once heard that Apple Computers were so called because Steve Jobs thought
if you ate an apple each day, you wouldn't need to wash!

He might not have - they are totally wicked live. The Albert Hall show was
one of the best things I've seen on a stage.

OK here's my 'corrected' version.
Some changes from Rob's:
* Pam turns into Karen (or Wee Karen).
* "It was pretty much the colour of it" becomes "He was playing with his
collar a bit" (very elvis thing to do)
* They didn't have strange manners and stuff, it was just elvis
* It's definitely not the desk that they were sitting on - maybe (and
this came to me in a flash of inspiration) the "mezzanine"
we were sitting in the living room on the sofa, the wrong way round,
looking out the window. it was quiet, and then in the car park across
the road we saw elvis - look, there beside the postman's van, and he was
walking round the postman's van, looking in the open door. he looked as
if he was thinking about getting in, but then the postman came back, and
he swaggered off, walked past the window and down the stairs, and then at
the bottom of the stairs right by the caretaker's office, he started
licking the pavement. every night now since we moved in that new house
there's this noise outside the door at just about half seven or eight o'
clock every night. and if we go and look outside the door, elvis'll be
standing there waiting to be let in. and then he wanders into the living
room, maybe sits down on one of the chairs or even lies down on the
floor. he doesn't say much, he just stays there for an hour or two,
watching the tv. we talk to him a bit, and then around ten o' clock,
he'll go away again, and not come back until the next night. there's a
lot of lanes and stuff around here, around the house - although it's
right in the middle of the city it seems quite like the country, it's
dead hidden - safe i suppose, made for night living. there's a lot of
squirrels and birds, and stuart says he's seen about nine foxes there
when he's jumped over the fence on his way to prior's road. sometimes
you can go out walking, and when you've been out for a wee while even you
don't know where you are anymore, so it would be pretty hard for anyone
else to find you. i suppose that's why he spends so much time there,
that's why he's come to live there, or maybe it's just the squirrels. i
read about somewhere that he likes squirrels quite a lot. there's these
two videos that we got for wedding presents - called the e-files, e-files
one and e-files two about how elvis is supposed to be still alive. and
one time when he came round we were watching one of those, but he didn't
say anything he just sat on the armchair. he was playing with his collar
a bit, and we watched it right through and then when it finished he just
got up and walked off into the mist and didn't say anything. the first
few times he came round i didn't speak to him at all, i wasn't really
sure what to say. and karen spoke to him quite a lot - she seemed to
know what to do more than i do. he had quite a strange manner though,
he'd go into your stuff and look through it, then he'd maybe pick
something up and play with it for a wee while, but he'd never make any
comment about any of it. seemed pretty rude to me. i just watched
whatever karen did, and listened to how she talked to him and then, after
a while i started to copy that, and tell him a few things, not really
bothered about whether he responded or said anything back or not. i
think the first time i spoke to him we were sitting up on the mezzanine
and i said that i would tell him about me and wee karen, and how it was
that we'd come to be living there. i thought he probably liked the fact
that we were living there because he came round so much, so i thought he
might want to know how it was that it came about. we did it all over
backwards, i told him . first of all we got to know each other, and then
a while after that we met, and when we'd known each other for about seven
years we decided to have an anniversary, and that went quite well, so
after the anniversary we had a honeymoon, and that went well too, so
after that we decided that we would get married. that's why we're living
there now. i used to think my dad was elvis, but i haven't told him that
yet. i haven't told my dad either...
Will this do? I thought it might be nice to print it out in a nice font
like gill sans, centre-justified and all, then to blow it up on the work
photocopier and hope noone spots me doing it. Someone has already
discovered the initial printout in the laser printer and wondered what on
earth it was. Actually I quite enjoyed the confuision it generated. And
reading it on the tube in my suit was even better. Adopting the air of a
thrusting young business hotshot reading an important document in
progress (which of course it was). I hope it was being read over my
shoulder.
Umm... really embarassing, shameful request that I've delayed making
because there have been so many other people out-grovelling and
out-apologising each other with the same plea that I've held back. But
where has that got me? Nowhere. Coyness is nice and so on. So,
hrrrmm... yes, if anyone would offer to tape 'Tigermilk' and/or R1
sessions for me I would so grateful that I'd probably build an effigy and
found some kind of rudimentary religion around them. If that appeals
then please get in touch by e-mail. Phew, done it.
Oh yes, another thing - did I read somewhere that one of the band members
works in John Smiths on Byre's Road? Just because that's where my sister
worked for a little while about three years ago when she lived in one of
the tenements just opposite. I seem to recall her telling me that
someone out of the Pastels used to work there too.

Hello,
First of all cheers to all the people who gave me advuice about how
to handle my wee computer problem. It seems to be sorted now.... at
least I haven't heard anymore from the computer people at glasgow.
Secondly, the 13th note did close for refurbishement, but it also
moved. So I think theyre basically opening up two places when they re
open (if they haven't already). I dont know wich bit Belle and
Sebastian will be playing, or where the new bit is. Maybe someone
else does.....
And finally... wow! Suddenly everyones gone all sexy. Probably we've
all heard the stuff about sexuality being blurred nowadays and all
that and whateversexuall not really meaning that much anymore.
Anyways I think Stuarts lyrics reflect this... he seems to feel some
kind of attratction to both men and women anyhows.
Also I think guys are obssesed with lesbians because we all secretly
want to be lesbains.... it would solve some problems anyway.
cheerio,
neil

Hello all,
Now I know know you're all excited (and worried) about tickets for the
Manchester gigs, but we are not able to reserve tickets for anyone. I
know this is annoying, but the promoter is basically handling the sales
for us, and we don't have the tickets (or the orders for them from you
all) to check. So, please don't mail me about tickets unless you are
really really worried. I will speak to Barry over the next couple of
days to see how the tickets are going, and pass that info onto you all,
but apart from that it is out of my hands.
Sorry guys, hope you forgive us!
Cheers,
Katrina & David.

In reply to the other guy's post it's quite hard to identify. Stuart's
sitting down, I can see Mick but the rest are pretty hard to pick out
really, I haven't got it in front of me today.
Won't be in at the Egg next this weekend Paul - got to go and visit my
parents and pick up my stricken fan-beltless car - was there last week
though, and you weren't (This could constitute a breach of contract!)
Cheers,
Keith.
