Hi All, I felt better about not having got my own act together in sufficient time to submit an application for one of the Reporter jobs when I saw the quality of the ones rejected: Peter's one here http://www.banchory.net/belleandsebastian/reporters.html had me spluttering tea all over my computer screen at work yesterday afternoon. Good thing for Big Stu that Isobel's left the band now, that'll save him any embarrassment over that old asthmatic gerbil stuff. Over on the other side, in the death throes of the Bowlie Board, people are trying to sort out the lyrics to this song: If You Find Yourself Caught In Love If you find yourself caught in love Say a prayer to the Man above Thank Him for everything you know You should thank Him for every breath you blow. If you find yourself caught in love Say a prayer to the Man above Thank him for every day you pass You should thank Him for saving your sorry ass. If you're single, but looking out You must raise your prayer to a shout Another partner must be found Someone to take your life beyond Another TV I Love 1999 Another box of rosé wine If you find yourself caught in love Say a prayer to the Man above If you don't listen to the voices Then, my friend, you'll soon run out of choices What a pity it would be Oh you talk of freedom don't you see The only freedom that you'll ever really know Is written in books from long ago Give up your word to Him but don't you? things will change I'm not saying overnight but Something has to change You're too good looking not to live If you find yourself out of love Shed a tear for the one you love Tell your boss that you've gone away Down your tools for a holiday but, If you're going off to war Then I wish you well, but don't be sore If I cheer the other team Cos killing people's not my scene And please would you give the inhabitants a say before you blow the town away Oh I like to watch them? be? I like to marvel at the Random beauty of a simple village girl Why should she be the one who's killed? If you find yourself caught in love.... Any help in resolving the ?'s would be appreciated, thanks. This afternoon I participated in an argument as to whether this gig would be oversubscribed or not: A Valentine's Day special featuring Camera Obscura & The Ladybug Transistor, Friday 14th February, Hyndland Church Hall, Novar Drive, Hyndland (just off Hyndland Road along from Clarence Drive), Glasgow. (Scene of their first ever gig, according to the big man. I never realised until today that the Bowlie Festival was only their second, wow!) Only a fiver to get in, doors @ 8.30 p.m. What do you reckon, will the Hall be packed?
