Sinister: nottingham

[James]

hello

I'm on the digest and as people on the digest probably know it's not been
very well and we've all been getting little parcels of nothingness instead
of mail for some time now. So since the nottingham gig I've had no mail at
all, and thus have not been able to play my part in the post gig
joyousness. I've just received all the digests I missed as one huge bulging
sackful, but it's going to take me hours to wade through it all, and I want
to talk NOW NOW NOW or my limbs'll fall off or something.

So anyhows, my point is this, I'm going to tell you my nottingham
experiences, and you've probably heard it all before, because you've been
nattering for ages, but I'm going to tell you anyway. So, erm, sorry...and
all that.

Well, during the course of my quick flick through I've noticed that a lot
of you have been complaining about the heat and such like, and I kind of
noticed that (it was hard not to), but to be honest, with a performance
like that it sooo didn't bother me. I would have felt positively greedy
asking to be able to breathe as WELL.... But OK, I see your point, if that
sort of thing gets to you.

And I could hear them perfectly well (and I wasn't right at the front), so
I don't really understand all this stuff about sound problems. The only
problem as far as I could see was people talking too loudly, and too often
and over the top of songs. But then you get that everywhere.

And I cried during two of the songs. Prize to anyone who can guess which
two. 

And oh my god, oh my god, Isobel looked so beautiful. I'm praying to god my
photos come out. And her cello, and her voice were both spot on.

And Stuart's voice was on top form. And Stevie sounded fantastic too. And
thay just sound so much like a band now rather than loads of separate
little things. And they were so smooth and so lush and so competent.
Manchester seems light years away.

It was magic.

And we took some white wine with us called Tigermilk. 

And on the way home there was a full moon, and the best fog EVER, and we
saw a BAT!  A bloody bat. It flickered right over our car on the M42. A
really big one too.

Oh you're all so beautiful.
