Hey kids,
     Once again, I'm providing an excerpt from the Aquarius Records 
e-newsletter.  I take no responsibility for any factual errors!  Some 
other bands touted in this edition were lambchop, heavy vegetable, and 
boards of canada.

Loves, Miss Erin

>BELLE & SEBASTIAN  "The Boy With The Arab Strap"  lp/cd  8.98/13.98
>   Well-informed customer tells us that an arab strap is a sexual >aid 
for horses that helps their penises to point in the correct >direction. 
Customer also tells us that the particular B&S song with >this title is 
making fun of (the band) Arab Strap's lead singer who  >is forever 
whining about his failed relationships. And the lyric >does in fact 
read, "the boy WITH the arab strap". Make of this what >you will. 
Current bestseller in the lispy pop department.

>    "It seems to me in England, rock or guitar music is mainstream,

around.

>     you wanna be bad, you buy a drum machine. If you wanna be healthy
