Liking Belle and Sebastian is about being young and clever.  Liking
Marilyn Manson is about being young and webellious.  I've never been
sure which is more P!O!P!, but I was never very good at being
webellious, whereas being clever is easy.  I did once making a long
atonal noise for several hours when my parents refused to let me stay
up to watch 'Psycho', but they kept their nerve and I fell asleep.  By
the way, being webellious is definitely different to being rebellious,
but is quite similar to being billious.

Anyway, they next time these girls make an idiotic remark along these
lines, make like you're squaring up for a fight, with your face right
in theirs.  Then lick them.  They will probably taste horrid, but at
least you'll gain the moral advantage.

Last weekend, my friends were singing stupid songs like 'Bohemian
Rhapsody' in a cave somewhere on the north Cornish coast and I
insisted on not getting the point at all and piping up with countless
Belle and Sebastian songs.  Although I forgot the verse about priests
in booths, my rendition of 'The State I Am In' nearly won round some
non-believers.  Hello Lindsey.

So is anyone else going on the demo David and Katrina are holding

What a terrific name.  I can't be the only one to spot that this was
one of the C&A labels from the 80s.  I used to have a great elephant. 
Also I had a great elephant grey anorak with a 'Lord Anthony' label on
the left breast.  Other great C&A labels: Clockhouse and Avanti! 
Actually, thinking about it, it might not have been a C&A label at
all.  It could have been a genuine independent imprint.  Sorry, Lord
Anthony.

Then he asked:

Paper Boar?  What a terrific idea.  Reminds me of last weekend again,
when minibus games degenerated to 'Smiths songs with meat products in
them'.  'Miserable Pie' was my favourite.

And Keith, where is this street where forthcoming Belle and Sebastian
releases get discussed.  It sounds like my kind of thoroughfare.
