Sinister: do your dance; do your funny little dance

Hello Sinister,

I'm just sitting here "chillin'" after reading some Torts and doing a
Contracts hypothetical.  For you kids planning on going to law school or its
equivalent, hope you're having as much fun as I am!!  (note sarcasm).

So, I haven't had a chance to listen to my new CDs of late.  My friend just
came back from England and she gave me the most wonderful present: Pulp.
The new CD was "weird" at first to me.  Jarvis talking about shrubbery and
all that (weeds, weeds II, and trees).  But now I absolutely love it!!  My
favourite line in the entire CD is the subject line above.  Jarvis says it
so sexy like.

And I'm still mourning about the Divine Comedy breaking up.  Does anyone
else here think that Parlophone intentionally did this?  Why is it that
Parlophone only contracted Neil Hannon but not the Talbots and the others?
Regeneration was the first album, to my knowledge, where I actually saw the
entire band in full.  Usually, it's just Neil on there looking all pretty
and witty with his scarf.

I was listening to my Divine Comedy bootleg from their Edinburgh Liquid Room
gig on 25 February 2000.  It's weird to hear the Regeneration songs in there
in it's infancy.  Did you know that line in "Timestretched" where he says
the said title was originally penned as "let's dance"?  And one of the songs
(sorry, forgot the title) sounded like a rumba with the bongo drums?

And now Tim Booth of James is no more as well.  What gives?

New SFA in the USA on Tuesday.  Support your local Welsh indie bands.  I
hear it's a superb album.

Anyways, enough of my yapping.  I'll let Kenneth Y P Chu, the Rachels, and
the Williams' do the more creative yappin here.

By the way, my second first name is Wil.  Do I get to be in the Williams'
group?

Cheers,

Ian Wil
