Halo peeps Has anyone else thought of a conspiracy theory concerning Legal Man and its artwork? To me it suggests that B&S are unhappy with Jeepster and all the bureaucratic malarky that they impose on the band: long mixing times for the records, love affair between sleeve artist and legal man (?), big (unnecessary) expenditures on bank account, letter of contract extension dated 1998 (not to be renewed?), Katrina looming over paperwork with scissors in hand (having left Jeepster?). Is Stevie playing the part of Jeepster's legal man, with THE LOVELY Bel and Maisons wielding gun, rope and dagger behind him? Or is that just what they want us to think? Or is that just what they want us to think that they think that we think that they think that we think? I particularly like the retro globe piggy bank, and the picture frame like the ones we were forced to make at skool. But what does it all mean?!!! I like to read too much into things, makes humdrum life more melodramatic. Hopefully the artwork also suggests that Middle Distance will be the next single, but I'm only saying that because I think it's definitely a 'single', in that it's a catchy song which I got bored with after a few listens. I recently acquired Lordy Antony and Pocketbook Angel, which I infinitely prefer (esp the former) Pleeeeeeese let them be the B-sides. And would it be GRAYT if Dick Flap appeared on another release, but with singing (a la Century of Fake Elvises)? Kishes Mikey Michael.x P.S. I like Clinic's album I hope you do too. +----------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the undead Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail sinister@missprint.org.
