gulp,you talked with him? oh he is lovely...you are so lucky!

fade to interior monologue inside my brain...
*woah...she touched him..woah* I become all silly and light-headed with
mention of suede and ex-suedies..
I would love to meet him,he really IS a nice person,and such good taste in
guitar.
Oh that lovely feeling...I remember I almost fainted when I saw Brett buying
a veggie burger....Oh sweet Brett,will there ever be another as lovely as
you. Why doesn't he realize he needs to marry ME. Oh justine pooh..oh 'dark
star' supermodel pooh...oh that Sam girl pooh..let US frolic in the fields.
        ok yes..other things,just let me calm down.
I like b-sides! No one song!i like a little treasure cd...you search out the
precious gems,with the lovely little designs and everything..but,as some of
of us must save save save,we're not living in the olden days you know ('yes
jessup,i remember when a nickel bought me a pound of ham and some sassafrass
candy'..sassafrass is candy right? i hope it's not something rude,it just
always comes to my mind with the word candy)i need to spend my tiny amount
of money on things like a)peach juice b)film c)price of developing film
it's no fun to buy singles with one track for the same price of an album..i
don't understand how 3 pounds goes to 20+ dollars..i mean i know the taxes
are high,and shipping and handling..oh well.. if i could,i would buy that
little spiritualized pill set because it's so pretty..i just get slightly
annoyed when it's like 'Oh yay new single in! *look on back* What the...Live
version at blah blah place,Live version no.2 at some other place,live
version at another place..track no.3 the RADIO EDIT (oh goody!) or 10
different remixes that all sound the same...zzzzzzzz...or just a whole bunch
of junk songs that didn't make it to the album,just passed off as
'new,unreleased!' material...now it's so nice to hear b-sides that are even
better than songs on the album, like that riverwatching geneva song...
but i don't want to talk too much on this,and bore you lil' dearies,i don't
know many of those little P!O!P bands speshially the older ones,so i can't
make any statements...oh fiddlesticks.

i can ask about..
belle and sebastian tour dates can't i? or is it a secret thing? it seems to
go unnoticed or maybe i am just being impatient,sorry! :)
