Sinister: Artist royalties and begging request for tigermilk tape.

On the subject of artists royalties. Taping a CD for a friend is not an
attempt to make a profit at the artists expense. Those who love the tape and
can afford to will buy the CD anyway if they can. Pirate CD's of currently
available (or soon to be available - Tigermilk we pray) material is taking
money out of the pocket of the artist. Pirate CD's / Tapes of live gigs ?
I'm not sure whether it's fair or not. If any band members read this, how do
you feel on this one?

Which leads me on nicely to a desperate request, one which I suspect gets
asked rather a lot. Could anyone please tape me a copy of Tigermilk if I
send them a blank tape? I know it's a bit cheeky, but I promise to buy if if
it ever becomes available on CD.
Can't offer much back in return b&s way, as all I have is the stuff
everyone's got, but I would be really very grateful.

Thank you in advance to some generous kind hearted soul out there.

p.s. does anyone out there like Momus ? I think that he's a noticable
influence in quite a few b&s songs. He's released tons of stuff over the
years, some a bit iffy, but some is sublime. He's got a great web site at
