SMALL TOWN BEATINGS well I've been home for the past 4 days and in that time managed to not get beaten up which makes a change, in fact I only got threatened twice which has to be some sort of record. Once was for wearing a B&S T-shirt though ("thats a fuckin' puffs shirt that is") and the other was for being 'not from round here' (I was born there and it's been home for 22 years now...oh well). I have now decided that when I finnish uni I am never going back there and will live somewhere where having musical taste is not a crime and they dont beat you up just cos they dont recognize you. Ermm does any such place exist. 3TRACK/4TRACK SINGLES Jason asked about this but I thought I'd post to the list to hopefully end what seems to me to be a common misconception about the band. The band are not dedicated to value for money for us the fans, and are not in any way hostile to the idea of releasing 3 track singles. Stuart M told me that the band had actually planned to release a 3 track, however, they then decided that they wanted to make modern rock song available to us and so the release became a 4 track. Oh and while we were on the subject I asked him whether in the event of a 3 track being released and the band being asked would they do top of the pops. Stuart said that they most definately would and that they had talked about such things, I you see, had been sceptical due to Bel's stage fright. STIRLING MEETUP This plan has been shelved for now due to the staggering demand (I was staggered that nobody but sweetie was interested). Rest assured that the glasgow listees will be severely reprimanded when I next see them. thats all from me you can now go and read an interesting mail from someone else. owen With that the narrow wizard waggled his bushy eyebrows and disappeared in a flash of blue flame leaving behind only a faint smell of cinnamon +----------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the reborn Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail "sinister@majordomo.net".
