Hello, hello, I hope you are all in good moods in this fine, September Sunday. I'm taking a break from all the homework that I have for school tomorrow. This is coming into my 5th week back, and I hate it. This year's my make-or-break year to get my highers for uni, so I can be a legal man, and to prove that I'm no lie .It might not quite be make-or-break, but if I get my grades this year next year could actually be fun... I live in the highlands, and I was so chuffed when I saw Amy's post yesterday morning. That put me in the bestest mood for the whole of yesterday. I live in Dingwall Amy, do you know where that is? It's on the opposite coast, near Inverness. It's rubbish, coz no1's ever heard of belle&seb, they probably don't even know what indie-pop is. Too busy shagging sheep & chasing the haggis around the hills. Does any1 else live up here too? I'd love to meet other fans, have a pic-nic, etc. It would be brill if ne1 up here could play instruments up here too. It gets a bit lonely when your playing to yourself, trying to sing like Mr. Murdoch. Can't wait till uni when I can meet some of you. I should've started some of this homework yesterday. I would've too, if it wasn't for my band "commitments" My band might be getting their first gig soon. We're called the, "Prisoners of Society" and we are pretty dire. All we play is manics covers, because the rest of the band are too "hard" to play any b&s stuff. That's why i want out of it.I'm the lead guitarist, and I used to be the singer. Then the bassist, takes over the band, tries to tell us what we're going to play and so forth. Anyway, I can't leave coz they're all my friends and they need me. So I'm tolerating it 4now. Don't you just feel so grate after listening to B&S? I absolutely love them, and try to influence as much people as I can to listen to them. I still can't stop listening to "Is it wicked not to care?" after 1 1/2 years. Which leads me onto Isobelle. She must have a good influence on the band. I know I prefer Stuart fronting most of the songs, but where would B&S be without her? Where would Stu D get his inspiration for the story on the back sleeve of tigermilk from? I'm gonna hav to go now. This short break lasted 40mins. Bye, John ;) _______________________________________________________________________ FSmail - Get your free web-based email from Freeserve: www.fsmail.net +----------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the undead Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail sinister@missprint.org.
