Hi Twee Majority. *Edinburgh Picnic* Come on people, it's this Saturday, and it's gonna be an absolute kick-ass day (or prod-buttock day, if you're gentler than me <wink>) *Amy Jackson* She's coming down to join me at the Edinburgh Picnic and the Looper gig - I hope you're all as nice to her as you were to me - I'm certainly looking forward to it <smiles> *FYHCYWLAP* I was in the car, coming home, new album clutched tightly in my sweaty paws, when Mark and Lard played "I Fought In A War." They went on to tell the average listener that the new album is *better* than Tigermilk!! Now, I may not have listened to it as much as Tigermilk, and it *is* good, but it's never a Tigermilk beater, maybe if "Beyond The Sunrise" had been the b-side to Legal Man, and Winter Wooksie (<grins> sorry Alasdair) swapped over, then it could have been a contender. But as it is, it just falls short. My estimation of B&S album greatness follows: (1) Sinister (2) Tigermilk (3) Peasant and finally (4) Arab Strap - despite this, though, I still love them all. *Stuart David being tired* I say leave the poor guy alone. I mean, true, the job isn't the most rigerous in the world, but when you take into account rehersals, soundchecks, and all the jetting around a US tour would involve, added to the Trans-Atlantic flight home, I can pretty much understand how he could be a little tired. And to the person who said Stu hates his fans - I've met him a few times, and he's been nothing but pleasant to me, even when I confessed to only coming to see Looper because of B&S connections. *Jeepster ignore me again* I have asked Jeepster *so many times* to add me to the postcard mailing list, and have sent that bluddy wee postcard in each album/single away every time, and they *still* keep me on e-mail only! I wanna postcard to stick on my wall!!!! ******My FYHCYWLAP poster was stolen!!!!!!!!!!!****** A few weeks ago in Glasgow's Tower Records, there was a Fishyclap poster on the wall, which I attempted to blag - the guy behind the counter said he'd give it to me if I came back a couple of weeks later, and took my name and stuff. I went back the other day to get it, and I was told that some evil villain had *stolen* it from the wall. I could have cried - I *wanted* that poster so badly! If the thief is on Sinister, I hope you feel ashamed of yourself! *checks clock and notices he's over 15 mins* That's me for now - cheerio xx --Jason Andreas If nice guys finish last, then I'll never finish at all...
