Sinister: Just a little public service announcement

[Grace Howarth]

Greetings,
I've just rung Leeds City Varieties and they've confirmed that Gorky's 
aren't playing tonight, or indeed for the rest of the tour.It says as much 
on nme.com and has been posted on other webrings but i thought i'd check 
you'd got the message but I thought it was worth finding out from the venue 
knowing the general unreliability of nme.com journalists.

Apparently it's being postponed until mid-July, with all bought tickets 
still usable. At least they've got a proper excuse: Norman Blake's daughter 
is in hospital after a car crash; none of the promotional commitments crap 
we usually get fed when a band don't sell enough tickets.

Still, just in the hope of catching a few people before they set off with a 
general gorky's anticipation in their hearts only to be turned away by a 
cleaning lady who thinks you are looking for a mad primate.

Apart from that disappointment i have had a lovely day sat in my garden 
listening to Legal Man. It made me very happy and I had to be calmed down 
with a glass of orange squash and a digestive biscuit, both of which are 
always guaranteed to dampen the spirits. I maintain the belief that 
digestives are the creation of evil scientists to see if we will eat dog 
food if it is marketed as a human product. Which means I can never eat one 
without imagining a bearded professor sat in a room chortling away at the 
sick joke he has played on society.

But the music was great and I love Judy.. more than legal Man itself. It is 
on 'repeat this track'on my stereo, which I know is not sensible in the 
longrun as the novelty is completely lost, but it's very nice for the 
moment.

Cheerio
Grace



And she spent the rest of the day separating the bits from the marmalade, 
or, if you prefer, the marmalade from the bits.
