Sinister: my two cents on the B&S VCD
hello everyone, I hope everyone had a nice Christmas, or anyone Jewish had a nice day playing golf or pool. That's what all my Jewish friends seem to do every year, anyway,. Play golf or pool and get Chinese takeaways for dinner. This is quite appealing, actually. I have "inherited" (via my recent marriage) a fairly large family, and seem to have spent the last few days endlessly visiting people I've never met before, when all I've wanted to do is stay home and listen to my new post-Christmas CDs. (sigh) Can I encourage everyone to get a Jeepster Records DJ bag? This was my main present, and it's ace. My old satchel was falling apart, and now I'll be the hippest kid at work. anyway, the VCD ....... A few days ago I got a copy of Suede's "Lost in TV" DVD. It's great, for a number of reasons. Firstly, it's been great to see all the promos. Living in New Zealand, I've missed out on pretty much every decent music video, and those I have seen have been via third or fourth generation dubs. So having a decent quality copy is fantastic. Secondly, and what I really like, is the interactivity. Suede don't really like many of their videos, and the DVD gives the user the option of hearing the band members actually talk about the videos, what they liked, didn't like etc. So, anyway, it would be nice if B&S could do something similar. I remember that, back in '99, there was some talk via the Jeepster newsletters, or releasing a VHS compilation of B&S TV appearances, promos, plus Gentle Waves stuff too. I think B&S could put together a really nice package, along similar lines to :lost in TV". Anyway, that's my two cents. Merry Christmas, and a happy new year everyone, Lawrence +-------------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail sinister@missprint.org.
