hello everybody (hello doctor Nick), Senor Miller mentioned showing off his Sebs (as I shall insist on calling them from now on, it's more RAWK) T-shirt to his ma + pa. Keeping the family theme alive, my father asked me last week 'who's this Belle and Sebastian then? What have they done that I know?'. Apparently my sister had been discussing the possibility of going to the Manchester gigs (her and her husband are particularly fond of 'Stars of Track and Field', he's a keen athelete and is convinced the song is about him - I do wonder if he's listened to the lyrics), and this had aroused my father's curiosity. It's always difficult to answer questions like this from my parents. 'They're a pop group....err...they're great...my favourite group...err, they're from Glasgow, like you (remind me never to go into advertising)'. Then I played 'IYFS'. The response...'Could you just turn it down a wee bit, please, it's quite good, but awful noisy'. Well, I tried. Can anyone confirm that Channel 4 text are giving double points to any vote for the Sebs in their single of the year poll? Them and All Saints, apparently. Oh one other thing....

What???? Our Steve, the nation's favourite Indie Guru, with his 'trusty DM's' his chirpy 'see you down the front at the next Embrace gig', and his hard-hitting weekly column in Melody Maker (the highlight of this boy's Wednesdays). We have a picture of him on our wall. He's the cutting edge, yet somehow 'down with the kids' as well. Anyone who heard the Sebs' session last time around will know that no-one in the world can say 'whooping' quite like Steve Lamacq. Andrew, you're right. He is Satan.
