Hello, all --- I've never posted here before ... and I'm insomniac at the moment, so this should be a good time to ramble about myself, but I'm feeling a bit shy to do so. So, instead, I'll talk about some Very Cool Stuff Indeed. Yes, B&S concerts in America. Bliss, bliss: I have two tickets to the Boston show on May 4th (*one day before my birthday!) ... Ticketmaster lists tickets for sale: (http://www.ticketmaster.com/cgi/artist1.idc?actname=BELLE_AND_SEBASTIAN&MajorCATID=10001&MinorCATID=60) May 4, Boston, Orpheum Theater May 10, Detroit, State Theater And then there's this band, "Belle and Sabastian," that's playing in Upper Darby, PA: http://www.ticketmaster.com/cgi/artist1.idc?actname=BELLE___SABASTIAN&MajorCATID=10001&MinorCATID=52 ... but tickets for that are not on sale yet. Probably because they can't spell the damn thing. Oh, and the tickets I got in Boston last night are in the orchestra section right next to the stage! so I can get up and walk five steps to gaze worshipfully up at Our Heroes. Blissfully (albeit $25+$7.40 "convenience fee" each lighter), Richard. +-------------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail sinister@missprint.org.
