Bless me, sinisters, for I have sinned. It's been about a month or so since my last confession. I _meant_ to write a good report of the show I saw in St. Paul, but then I had to write a paper about it and it never occurred to me until the other day to just copy and paste that, and now it's 450 miles away with the rest of my stuff since I'm home for the holidays now. Sad! I'll try and give a brief rundown of the good costumes which the band was wearing on account of it having been Halloween and all. Actually I only remember three of them doing anything out of the ordinary so this will be pretty quick. Stuart came out dressed in one of those full-body skeleton outfits you can buy at Wal-Mart for like $5 (but don't buy them from Wal-Mart, they suck). He played the ribs on it like a xylophone, and then that was the end of that and he had some other outfit on underneath that which he wore for the rest of the night. Mick had his face painted all in white and had put fake blood all over the front of his shirt, which rocked all of us like the real thing. Sarah had one of those little plastic devil's pitchforks and a pair of devil horns which she was wearing as a headband. I think that about covers it. Also they played some songs, and they were all pretty good. Did I mention I was sitting in an opera box seat at the show? I think I did in the last e-mail I tried to send, before the internet devoured it alive. Well, I did. I wish I'd had opera glasses to view the concert with but I think it would have been at odds with my singing along to basically every song and shouting "Celtic!" when someone down below shouted "Partick Thistle" first. I don't think people in box seats do that sort of thing. Anyway, so I'm in Illinois right now so I watch a lot of TV. I don't get to see Belle and Sebastian on it, though, so I can't report back on anything like that, though. The video for "Hey Ya!" is totally awesome, though. Hello to the #sinister people I know. I should be back around soon enough. shaking it like a polaroid picture, -kevin (jackflaps) +-------------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail sinister@missprint.org.
