Hello-- Yet another fresh-faced kid just arrived from the nursery, so before I begin telling you one of the great injustices of living in Phoenix some basic info about myself.-> My name is Rachel, and I discovered B+S a little over a year ago (all you old timers pipe down), after my sister (starving artist in NYC type) reccommended TBWTAS to me. I fell in love with the title track and since then I've been smitten. I'm in high school, my first day of exams was today but they were pretty relaxed and groovy so I'm grateful. My favorite track off the new Looper album is "Puddle Monkey"--I wish it was longer. I just saw Stereolab on Saturday and they were fabulous; and Looper w/ The Flaming Lips on April 1, which was beyond superb--I'm still picking confetti out of my clothing. I also enjoy the music of Blur (because they realized they were s***ing out so they released 13), The Velvet Underground (because Waldo Jeffers had reached his limit), and The Smiths (of course!!), to name a few. The Trial is my favorite movie, because in it Tony Perkins looks like a frightened spider monkey. The great injustice of living in the Phoenix area--Legal Man isn't out until Friday!! :-(( That and the fact that it was 109 degrees today. Has anyone noticed that: * At certain times (especially when singing the chorus), Stuart M sounds a little like Nico? * The titles to B+S albums are getting longer? ( 1 word, 4 words, 6 words, 9 words) * Mike Love really is the devil? Another thought that's keeping me awake--> "Is Morrissey lonely?" I keep picturing him in some giant echo-y house in LA, wandering from room to room and finally getting bored and switching on his big screen TV, a tear trickling down his eye because this is the third day in a row nobody's phoned him. Maybe it's just me. But I think I need to go find a handkercheif anyway.......... (sorry this post was longer than intended, and not as B+S related as it could've been. I'll try harder next time.) Ciao!
