I saw that film HIGH FIDELITY. THE BOSS makes a CAMEO appearance. I would have preferred CAMEO to make a BOSS appearance. My favourite CAMEO song is SINGLE LIFE. The film HIGH FIDELITY is terrible. They might just have been able to pull it off with some homegrown talent like LENNY GODBER, EDNA WELTHORPE and EDDIE YEATS in the cast. As it stands, it's one of the worst films I'm ever seen. On the RADIO BROADCAST of BELLE AND SEBASTIAN's Benicassim performance, the annoying between song commentators kept saying that BELLE AND SEBASTIAN had REFUSED to play the main stage because they were FRIGHTENED. Normally I would ask someone at Banchory Central to confirm or deny this, but we're an unofficial fan site. If it is true, BUNCH OF PUFFS. If it is false, WHO'S BEEN SPREADING FALSE RUMOURS? And does anyone really care? I know I don't. I've decided that the BELLE AND SEBASTIANS are REALLY IMMATURE, except for SARAH. I had never realised that FELT and DENIM are both fabrics. FELT had a song called something like ALL MY FAVOURITE PEOPLE ARE THOSE THAT ARE DEAD. In much the same spirit, I say ALL MY FAVOURITE LISTEES ARE THOSE THAT HAVE UNSUBSCRIBED IN DISGUST. I hope they are all well. If I were a hospital radio station I would now play THE CURE's IN BETWEEN DAYS and dedicate it to departed listees. Other pop performers with fabric-related names include STEVE SILK HURLEY, SATIN ODYSSEY and DOT COTTON. I hope this helps. I am reading a book called KING OF THE WORLD by David Remnick. It is about Muhammed Ali. It is near perfect, as is STRANGE FRUIT by DAVID MARGOLICK. It is about current list favourite Billie Holiday. She's BLUDDY GRATE, at least in this book. I think STRANGE FRUIT might be better than KING OF THE WORLD. Which means it must be perfect. Thank you Big Dave for mentioning MUCKY PUPS, provisionally retitled DOG BUSINESS. I am very gratefull for any clicks. Modesty prevents me from indulging in gratuitous self-promotion, but has anyone noticed the Ken P. Chu content? Perhaps it becomes clearer in next month's chapter, which is twice as long! PF's list of Great Songwriters certainly had me scratching my head. Merrit at number 8? There'd have to be a whole holocaust of songwriters for Merritt to reach number 8. I was also puzzled by King at number 17. Now I like LOVE AND PRIDE as much as the next man, especially in the extended 12 inch format, but I can't think of a single other song written by the spray-painted Doc Marten boys. I bet PF's editor contributed this one anyway. Cole at number 25 is a joke as well. He's a right jobbie-faced nob-end. I wonder how Genviève is getting on in the Scotland region?
