I can't wait 'till I get my "Stow" t-Shirt :)

the sad tomato suggested:
let's make a deal where every time you see someone in a B&S shirt you walk up and introduce yourself.
If i ever saw someone wearing a Belle and Sebastian t-shirt, i would probably cover them with hugs and kisses just out of the excitement of finally chancing upon someone who found Belle and Sebastian fashionable. Actually, i'd probably be too shy, but i'd for SURE say hello and compliment them on their shirt. Maybe if they sent properly reassuring signals, i'd cover them with hugs and kisses after i finished my awkward introduction. Every time i wear my Study at Stow t-shirt (which, in fact, Goon, is a little bit too big for me, so it's a good thing i got that M and not a L!), i feel this overwhelming sense of potentiality. At any minute my ordinary day could turn extraordinary as someone stops me on the street and covers me with hugs and kisses. Unfortunately, though, it never happens, and i keep having people ask me, "Study at Stow, what's that?" One friend of mine who is acquainted with B&S thought "Study at Stow With Belle And Sebastian" was a tour shirt and that B&S was supposed to have opened for a band called Study at Stow in Philadelphia. Then i feel somewhat obsessive when i have to give the history of Tigermilk and Electric Honey Records in order to explain what, up until then, had been an excitingly cute shirt. That didn't stop me from wearing my Study at Stow shirt three days in a row the other weekend. (Don't look at me like that! I wore it on top of a different long-sleeved shirt each time, and i always smelled it to make sure it was clean! Oh pish, you'd do the same thing if YOU had a brand-new baby-blue Study at Stow t-shirt, too, admit it.)
