From the Melody Maker, October 18th 1997:
Hello wee Karn. This is Bel. I like the Angel Orensanz. He gave me two souvenir T-shirts for free! Angel owns the very pretty synagogue where we played and he's a sculptor like you. He is tall and twinkly and around 50 years of age. The Angel Orensanz Arts centre is quite rusty and untidy and unsafe. It is pastel green and gold. They are looking for money to restore it. Before Angel took over it was an unofficial home for punks. They must have had fun listening to the Sex Pistols and swinging from the balconies. New York is tall and generously proportioned with many poised, civilised and elegant people. Our hotel is even worse, I think it's the music television mecca of the city. It is 'delicately' lit for night vampires and I'm often walking into things. The doorman's budgies are dead and their shoulders are artificially very high. In Scotland, I rented "Annie Hall" with a friend. Everything seemed so much better then. Maybe soon I'll have less MTV, more Central Park. I hope so. Anyway, here's Mick...
