Oh I think you can be forgiven for that. Being the low key sods that they
are and not having seen them live.... yet, I wouldn't know one member of B&S
from the next. So merely knowing what each individual member looks like
(oooh err) is anal to me. Before you all comment on it, yes I am ashamed
that i've not taken the time to see the band live yet, I have good excuses
though.

You can find a few in Hairys in Liverpool. In fact they used to have loads
of the postcard singles, but they'd had a move around last time I went in
and I can't find anything now.

Soul Survivors looks good, i've been after it for donkeys, but there's
always something more important to get. Oh well, I suppose the one you got
had to be 1.99 for a reason.

It's my fave B&S song by a country mile, it's fantastic and why the hell has
it not been released yet, it's a crime. In days when boy/girl bands dominate
our phoney chart, LOTMDR could come along and crush the teenybopping little
bastards to hell. Anyone fancy starting a campaign to have it released......
well it worked for Deirdre Rachid didn't it ?.
