Sinister: Masters and servants, servants and masters

[Matthew Henderson]

I'm leaving to the see the Super Furries in a bit, but I have to write a 
paper before I go.  However, there is one thing I have to ask.

For those of you who saw our lovely belles on Conan last night, was isobel 
not there?  The cellist didn't look like her, but they never ever showed a 
closeup.  They just cut right as the camera got onto her.  But why would 
they sit a back-up musician so far away from the others?  And in, what is 
genearlly, isobel's place?  Is she not on the tour?

I would also like to apologize for endorsing the Top 10 list thing.  I did 
not realize it was against list rules.  Come to think of it, I really don't 
remember that in the list rules.  My mind is going in my old age, so I'm 
going to go reread them to refresh my memory before I do something else.  
However, you have to understand that many on the list are music geeks, and 
music geeks LOVE top 10 lists.  It's just a can of worms that should never 
be opened.

One last point, an old lady came into the record store where I work.  She 
picked up the "I'm Waking Up to Us" 12" and asked what it was.  I told her 
it was the newest Belle and Sebastian single.  She told me that was her 
favourite breed of dog, and she promptly bought it.  It's kind of endearing 
in a way, but I don't think she'll play it.  I wonder if it could have gone 
to a better home.  Ah well, it made her happy.  Now if I can only explain 
the old lady who came in looking for deleted nine inch nails and smashing 
pumpkins singles...for herself.

Red-faced with top 10s
-Matt
