I have a complete sense of empathy for those who are not able to attend the U.S. shows for Belle and Sebastian. But as we may know, a lot of what is desired in British/ European music is unattainable for us Americans. This is a special treat as this tour is in conjunction with the release of Todd Solondz' movie "Storytelling". If you are familiar with his work, this is a great mixture of creative forces! I could see "If Your'e Feeling Sinister" as the soundscape to "Welcome To The Dollhouse". "Happiness" was a bit dark for B & S. But I presume that the next film, set in the American suburb's, will be just as twisted and daring. I am counting the days until the film, c.d. release and concert. Been listening to a lot of varying things these days- Rufus Wainwright-"Poses" Air-"10,000 MZ Legend" Travis-"The Invisible Band" Coldplay-"Parachutes" Nelly Furtado-"Whoa Nelly!" Bye all!
