This tidbit comes to you courtesy of this month's issue of Select magazine: The Scottish version of News of the World struck a blow for investigative journalism when they pursued 'trendy celebs' Belle & Sebastian to their secret lair. It turns out that mainman Stuart Murdoch and drummer Richard Colburn lead Hong Kong Phooey-like double lives as lowly janitors in Hyndland Parish Church in Glasgow. "The guys help set up the chairs and tables and make sure the place is all neat and tidy," said an 'unnamed band spokesman' of the duo's duties, which include opening the hall for coffee mornings for the elderly and mother-and- baby groups. "They love it!" he added. The good old NOTW even added some amusing parodies of songs the reclusive Scots could cover: "What about '(Broom Broom) Shake the Room' and 'Detergent Pepper?'" Speaking of tidying, I am off to hoover my flat now. au reservoir, Swannie -------------------------------- visit RED ROSES FOR ME fanzine @ http://surf.to/redroses +----------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list please mail "sinister@majordomo.net".
