He also said that the French lady creator of the cartoon B&S was not very happy about the use of her characters' names, and that they were possibly going to have to change the name of the Band.
Is this true? And if so any suggestions for an alternative? For starters how about _Deacon Blue_?
Eek! That would be horrible. I've always loved Belle & Sebastian's name. But, this couldn't be 100% true, as the cartoon borrowed its name & plotline (I think) from an old french serial. I guess the creator of the serial could be angry. Oh well. If they did change their name, I would think they should make a sly little change, enough that you can tell it's the same band. Like perhaps, La Belle Sebastian, or just Belle Sebastian. Some little play on words like that. /"\_/"\_/"\ Mick McMick - mick@indiepop.com - ICQ#5056758 \ / Sandcastle Records - sandcastlerecords@indiepop.com | | Sandcastle Homepage - http://indiepop.com/sandcastle/ | | | | "Everyone has their own cup of tea. | | Some just happen to like a lot of sugar in it!" | | - Me! ----------------------------------------------------------------------- This message was brought to you by the Sinister mailing list.
