Unfortunately, the biggest problem with the B&S list is that there is 
nothing going on with B&S.  It will be some time before the records are 
released and the gigging starts.  That said, other than the occassional 
radio sessions (I really wanna hear "Wrong Love"), there is nothing for 
us to do except twiddle our thumbs and have the occassional picnic.

That said, Paul said we should talk about our lives.  My life involves 
pop music which involves bands other than B&S.  On tuesday, I did a 
radio show on a college station in Boston (WMBR Cambridge) called 
Breakfast of Champions (named either after the cereal Wheaties or the 
Kurt Vonnegut novel).  I played lots of indie pop including Belle and 
Sebastian (You made me Forget my dreams) and bands the list talks about 
(Stone Roses, Biff Bang Pow, the Jasmine Minks).  

Yesterday, I did another radio show called Ma Petite Pamplemousse where 
I played  mostly french (Serge Gainsbourg, Francoise Hardy, Louis 
Philippe), cheesy french (Vanessa Paradis, Veronique Sasson) or wannabe 
french (Cat's Miaow, Velocette, Jane Birkin, Baby Birkin, Luna's version 
of Bonnie & Clyde, Dutronc).  I did manage a petit scottish set (Adv. in 
Stereo, Belle and Sebastian, and  Primal Scream).

Ummm...today I'll see Grease hopefully with my girlfriend (if it isn't 
sold out).  Our company is doing well (4 million in financing --- I know 
I know boo to the business world).  It's 80 degrees and beautiful.  Life 
is good.
