Hi guys,
most of you won't have a damn clue who I am, but I
thought that after being accused <grin> of being a
lurker on the list, I would show my face and reply to
a couple of emails recently sent.

Firstly, if I remeber correctly, it's generally a good
idea to have a bit of B+S content in emails so here
goes...
Has anyone seen the piano book for FISHYCLAPS (or is
that term outdated now and I have to type the
oh-so-boring FYHCYWLAP) and does anyone know if there
is a guitar tab book?  Also, on the official website
there is talk of a guitar tab book with EVERY B+S song
in it.  Has that idea been scrapped, and the
FISHYCLAPS book taken its place, or is that book still
likely to be released.
The reason I'm asking is that even though Troika (my
1st Band) is a little too punky to play B+S songs as
surprise covers at gigs, I'm thinking of starting a
rather twee 'side project' (oh, very muso!!!!) called
'the cupcakes' or some other intensely twee name, and
we'll play some b+S songs at gigs.
Can anyone help?

Anyway, moving on...
I'm gutted that Jason has left us...  I know he says
he won't but I bet he comes back one day...
I'll send a virtual wink whenever he does :o)
A really true friend who doesn't have any hidden
agenda like a couple of my other so-called-friends...
You Know Who You Are!!!!  (although none of them are
on this list so the last comment was a bit pointless!)

HAPPY BIRTHDAY....
to both Andy (our singer), Paul (our Drummer) and
belatedly (although I spent most of her birthday with
her) to Amy Jackson!!!!!

Yes Idlewild was excellent!!!  In both Aberdeen and
Glasgow!  YOU JUST HAVE TO BE WHO YOU ARE!!!!!!

OK... Troika...
Thank you to both Amy and Jason for publicly praising
my band.
To explain a bit about us...
We are melodic, punky, alternative, fresh, and fun!
To date we have been compared to the following
bands... Idlewild, R.E.M., The flaming lips, The Gang
of Four, Joy Division, Mogwai, At the Drive In,
Radiohead, The Delgados, and Seafood.
If anyone is at all interested we have a website you
can visit..
Http://www.troikaonline.co.uk
where you can find out more...


Ok, just a couple of hellos to finish off...
to the following... Hello, it was nice to meet you,
email me anytime...
*JenOwl
*the bloke she was with in Flip (sorry mate, names!!!
tsk tsk tsk)
*Ian Radcliffe
*Ally Cook

To the following... Hi, lots of love, c ya soon...
*Amy Jackson
*Sweetie
*Jason (if he hasn't deserted us yet!)

last words of the day...
Read Alisdair Gray's Lanark.  It is outstanding!!!!

Simpsons Quote of the day...
Mr Burns: I think you should leave. Immediately!
Homer: Or What?  You'll release the dogs?  Or the
bees?  Or the dogs with bees in their mouths, and when
they open their mouths they shoot bees at you!

thanks for reading,
cheers,
Neil.x.x.
