first of all a big thank you to everyone who has ordered through the on-line shop. you've helped incredibly and as a reward we've gone and splashed out all our profits already. the on-line store has been upgraded to a fully operational secure server and has been expanded to include ALL of the merchandise and records (this includes the hard to get posters and mugs for belle & sebastian). as regards the web sites, we've placed a link on the front page (http://www.jeepster.co.uk/) to a page that is running a petition against the capital radio take over of the london alternative radio station xfm. this is something we feel strongly about and felt that we should be supporting. we've just completed updates of various parts of the sites, most are behind the scenes things. but key areas include liquid audio on the snow patrol site (some bits are still uploading as i type this, i'll make those available tomorrow!), an update of the voting system on the belle and sebastian site. an update of the fiction section on the belle and sebastia site. and a few other bits (see if you can find them). a new addition to the belle and sebastian site is buried in the news section. to relieve some of the strain on the 'sinister' mailing list a message board is running to help co-ordinate meet-ups at the forthcoming european and US gigs. you can simply post messages to help co-ordinate meet-ups or to find out more info. please note though that this is not a chat board and is moderated to keep it from being so, you should still use the 'sinister' mailing list if you just wish to contact and mail other fans (see the b&s site under 'mailing lists' for info). anyhow, that's it for the current info thing. for your info the b&s album made it to number 1 in the uk indie chart (number 12 in the big chart). cheers david kitchen ----------------------------------------------------------------------- david kitchen : merchandising and websites : jeepster records http://www.jeepster.co.uk/ http://www.jeepster.co.uk/belleandsebastian/ mailto:shop@jeepster.co.uk jeepster recordings ltd, 217 canalot, 222 kensal road, london w10 5bn ----------------------------------------------------------------------- This is a message from the Jeepster Records news mailing list.
