Mysterious underground band? Intensely devoted following? Makes us sound like fucking satanists (satin-ists more like)
I've always had this notion that this mailing list seems a bit "cult-ish" I'm glad that someone has noticed this, I was too scared to say anything. You know what cults are like, I might wake up dead one morning.. It seems that everyone on the outside can see this, the cultishness of us fans is always the first thing friends comment upon, and the first thing
And then, on Tue, 4 Aug 1998 14:03:56 -0500, krivas@codon.nih.gov added: papers write about. For instance:
From the (London) Evening Standard, 26 july So fey they make the Cardigans look and sound like Aerosmith, this Scottish eight piece have a fiercely loyal cult following with their introspective melancholic brand of instrumental P!O!P!. <snip>
After I read that I started to think about it. And it's true; we're all cult members, I mean, why else am I sat typing when I could be down the P!U!B!, why does a glazed look come over my eyes whenever I hear Tigermilk playing, why else do I risk a kicking by wearing flares in a town which sees baggy trousers as dagerously deviant, and quite probaby homosexual. I was brainwashed the moment I heard the first few bars of The State I'm in come crackling over the airwaves back in 96, and I haven't gone for more than a minute since without thinking of the band. So has anyone experienced this before? With the S****s maybe, or Felt? Does the love affair ever end, is there a cure? This must be how Boyzone fans feel- I haven't wet my knickers yet, though if I met Stu M, I quite probably would.. Anyway, I'll shut up now, as I'm probably overreacting. Katrina wrote:
The supports for the UK dates have been confirmed.
Elliott Smith will appear at all three dates and National Park will also play London.
Oh. Can't we have a drunk poet like last time? I enjoy a good heckle. Are National Park any good? I haven't heard of them, though I quite probably should have.
