Sinister: Re: belle & sebastian on aceeeeeeed!

[SErringt at xxx.com]

So here's the scoop on WFNX playing our beloved Belle & Sebby:
I just called one of the djs (cruze if you need to know) because I heard
him mention B&S on the air right after playing the Smiths, and because I
didn't hear what he said about them, I called the station.  When I asked if
they were going to be added to the playlist, he said possibly (he's the
program director too), but the reason why they were played on Friday night
was because they were part of their "millennium preview weekend" where they
played all "up and coming" bands that they think we'll all be listening to
in the future.  So there you go.
