Here's my tuppenceworth for today. Hey, kids, I've set up a rival list where the only topic allowed is "is Electronic Renaissance crap?" at noitsnot@yesitis.com <mailto:noitsnot@yesitis.com> . Now don't you young scamps even think about trying to discuss anything with thought or reason behind it - we just want those yes/no answers! Okay, that was a bit nasty. Sorry about that. But I have a feeling our fairy godmother would want it said... She also wouldn't want anyone going on about football, but I'm going to anyway. Yes, I'm gutted that Euro 2000 is over, but after both extremes of gut-wrenching emotion over the last 4 days of the tournament (check my surname) I think it's a good thing as far as my heart and fingernails are concerned. Roll on August 12th and Tranmere Rovers... Yes, the boy on 3,6,9, Motorway is indeed Struan. Girls, you can see his tits. Boys, you can also see his tits, but for the hardcore winkie shot you have to be Owen Lowery. And the "love, love, love" song - isn't that Winter Wooksie (sp?)? You'd recognise Rhoda if you heard it because it's just about the most beautiful thing B&S have ever done. It's pretty naïve-sounding, very simple, folky and a-fucking-mazing. And it'll never be released. Some things suck. About writing to the band. Blimey, it's embarrassing to recall this, but before I even joined sinister I wrote them a...(oh god)...poem. It was about Helen Love, if I remember rightly. I don't know what I was thinking - that I wanted to give something to a band who had given so much to me. To show them how they made me feel. And yet I came across as a weirdo sadboy loser with no life and no discernible writing talent. So pretty spot on then. Enough or I'll be too embarrassed to send it, Markx ******************************************************************* HIT Entertainment PLC 5th Floor, Maple House 141-150 Tottenham Court Road LONDON, W1P 9LL Tel: +44 (20)7 554 2500 Fax: +44 (20)7 388 9321 The contents of this e mail from HIT Entertainment PLC are confidential and intended for the addressee only.
