This age distribution is skewed horribly I reckon (I hope!) by people either too young or more likely too old wanting to admit it. Please someone come out and pretend to be older than me or something. Or give me a medal for still liking decent music and caring at my age. Or something.

ho hum, i was trying to avoid responding to all this hoo-ha, but here we go: i'm (cough) 31 and i teach art and design to a bunch of ingrates in a dull town in Devon. (Tim, amongst others will tell you the best thing about this town is it's by-pass). I don't live in said town, however, preferring the rarified atmosphere of Exeter. I am constantly plugging B&S, and yesterday stuck up big posters for Sinister and the Glasgow/Edinburgh shows (thanks Leslie, a bunch of things on the way as trade!) on my wall, to which a few yr10 responded today with admiration. I've also a collection of promo photos, clippings, the cartoon... etc up to show how hip i am :-). Not content woth this, I also played them and talked about them in assemblies recently for yr 10 and 11, so now they all at least know the name and the alleged story of how they formed! A number have also asked for tapes and badges... Oh yeah, and all the expressive arts dept now sport the enamel badges, and the Duchess, who teaches english, wears a dog on wheels button. Are we the coolest teachers in Britain?? ha ha.

P.S. Hint to the aged: Mogwai keeps away those wrinkles

oh indeed they do, indeed they do.

does anyone out there have any sort of B&S poster/picture/wrapper/ANYTHING that might be used as wall decor? I would love to have something of theirs (a promo poster for one of the EPs, say) but as of yet my search for B&S memorabilia has not been fruitful. all I have is the ticket stub from the NY gig that I went to, and the tiny Dog on Wheels pin that they gave out for free there. nothing particularly suited for wall aesthetics. babe, you got more than me. I've been looking for stuff too..again unsucessfully, I have just blown stuff up (in size b4 anyone makes any amusing bomber jokes!)avec the lovlier photocopier!
