Hiya,

I thought I'd delurk to say I am very excited becuase B&S and ballboy will 
be on the same tv show! (see below) It is like a dream come true or 
something! I just have to find a way of watching Scottish TV but that should 
be possible right?!

Speaking of ballboy is anyone going to see Gordon ballboy's new Money Can't 
Buy Music in Edinburgh/ Glasgow? (the shows are 5th november- glasgow, and 
9th november - edinburgh)
dot to dot will be supporting so you really should come. it your sinister 
duty!

I'm off to be excited else where for now,

Take Care
Rachel

PS I'm not married but congratulations to everyone who is or will be soon

has it really been that long?

a lovely birthday present! I'll be 24! finally (?) I still feel 19, as when 
I joined the list, I think... years pass, and I've probably changed more 
than I'd care to admit.

sorry for the blather, I've been suffering from sinister withdrawal, not 
having web access, and I'm a little less inhibited about posting at the 
moment, can you guess why?

Hello all,

As there's generally not much to do January, we thought we'd come out and do some shows for you UK folk. It's safe to assume there will be an album and single around this time too, but the press reports are slightly ahead of themselves. Not saying they're wrong. Just saying they're a little previous in declaring it all done and dusted.

January 15th GLASGOW, ABC
January 16th GLASGOW, ABC
January 17th GLASGOW, ABC
January 18th ABERDEEN, Music Hall
January 26th BIRMINGHAM, Academy
January 27th LIVERPOOL, Academy

February 3rd BRIGHTON, Dome
February 5th DUBLIN, Ambassador
February 7th BELFAST, Ulster Hall
February 9th SHEFFIELD, Octagon
February 10th LONDON, Hammersmith Apollo

Tickets go on sale at 9am on Thursday November 3rd (it says Friday in the music press, but that's just to give you people a day's start on people who don't love us enough to give us their e-mail address) Visit the Tour section of the website at http://www.belleandsebastian.com/tour.php for prices and details of where to buy. Needless to say, we'll have details of worldwide tours fairly soon. It's all happening though.

In other news, The Music Show programme B&S filmed for the other week starts this Friday November 4th on BBC Two Scotland. It airs between 11.35pm and 12.05am and one of the new B&S tracks will be on it, so tune in!

Thanks,
Belle and Sebastian.

*Extreme shallowness alert!*

A rapid scan of recent emails I missed reveals a proved-to-be-controversial 
mail from Stuart asking for Sinister extras. My eye was caught by this line: 
"How about the odd cloak?"

Well, exactly: how about the Odd Cloak? Clearly someone must have it 
somewhere in the back of their wardrobe.

Stuart may, or may not (and I suspect the latter) be aware that cloaks are 
*everywhere* in the shops this season (yes, even in Hong Kong where it could 
hardly be described as cloak weather even now).

Cloak is one of those words which, repeated to the point of nausea, becomes 
meaningless.

My friend G, always a sartorial pioneer, used to sweep down the streets of 
Edinburgh in her cloak long before Alexander McQueen made them de rigeur 
again (and if you don't believe me, check out the fetching green one in his 
A/W 2005 collection here: http://www.alexandermcqueen.com - perhaps not 
quite the look that Stuart had in mind?) - oblivious to the dogs barking, 
old ladies choking and children crying in her wake.

Charlotte

hey everyone,

found this today on http://www.bookslut.com/blog/

<<Anne Marson looks at Paul Whitelaw's Belle and Sebastian: Just a Modern Rock Story, and finds it interesting but way fanboyish. 

“Indie god”: It’s a term that Glaswegian arts writer Paul Whitelaw uses unashamedly in his new book, Belle and Sebastian: Just a Modern Rock Story. The biographer is clearly smitten with his subject — which is both blessing and curse. As its press demurely attests, Whitelaw’s book is “THE FIRST BIOGRAPHY OF BELLE AND SEBASTIAN — WRITTEN WITH THE BAND’S COOPERATION!” And that cooperation surely came courtesy of a couple of well-placed smooches.>>

and here's the link to the full article:

tchau,

ana

Other famous people who wore cloaks apart from Charlotte's friend G:

- DOCTOR WHO (third incarnation innit)
- Dracula (I once read a rubbish COMIC poss in BUNTY about a mysterious
Dr. Ula who appeared in a small country village and then oh noes!! all
this patients started dying. Blah blah some stuff, and then he dies for
some reason, and the one girl who felt sorry the lonely doctor visits
his gravestone to find out it reads DR. A.C ULA! Spooky eh)
- Dumbledore from Harry Potter (possibly all the other wizardly little
tykes too, I dunno)

NOT Batfink, because he had WINGS of steel, not CLOAKS of steel. Come
now.

I support this Belle & Sebastian cloak wearing initiative. However, did
not the OBSERVER FASHION RAG (end times alert #32498573297) state that
it is actually "cloak/coat hybrids" that are de rigeur this season? 

I dunno, I only have two coats. One is grey and enormous, and the other
is ummm, "camel" colour. It either makes me look cool and sophisticated
or a bit like Arthur Daley. I have been practising saying 'goh-uh new
moh-ur' in my best glottal stopped cockney accent just in case.

Kind regards, 
Sarah

Dear Sinister,

What seems like a very long time ago i used to be d at nnypie on this list. I 
have spent about half an hour trying to find a way to word this well or good 
or whatever but i really can't find one so i guess this is it:

Some of you may remember amyk*ns/amy l*ngcore. She was also on this list a 
time ago. She passed away on november 2nd. She died of coronary arterial 
atherosclerosis which as far as i know and have been told is where the 
arteries clog and harden, usually in a situation like this theillness leads 
on to a heart attack or some form of heart failure but with amy it was 
apparently just the atherosclerosis itself that killed her.

Just four or five days before she passed she had really bad chest pains and 
went to the emergency room, they gave her an ekg, it showed that her heart 
was fine and they told her it must be acid reflux and sent her home. It 
obviously wasn't. I have been informed if they had done something called an 
echo-cardiogram they could have spotted the blockage in her arteries and 
perhaps could have performed surgery to fix it. That never happened but i 
have no idea how routine a test it is. Basically i don't know if the 
hospital was negligent and if this could or should have been prevented and i 
don't know if my hatred and anger towards them is justified or just  because 
i need to be angry at something.

Amy was my partner/fiancee and november the 2nd was exactly one year after i 
returned from spending the best 3 months of my life with her. A lot of her 
family and close friends from home believe in god, i am not one of them but 
if he does exist i really hate his sense of humour. We were getting married 
early spring of next year and she was moving from the united states so we 
could live together. I know no-one else knew amy in the same way i did, as 
far as i know very few people met her in person but i think the people who 
read her posts and chatted with her on #sinister liked her a great deal.

I really don't know what to say about her except she was the most beautiful 
person i have ever met in every way possible. I wanted to write more about 
her and how wonderful a person she is but i just can't find words right now. 
I'm sure anyone who remembers her won't need me to tell them anyway.

I am trying to put together a website archive of photo's of her. It might 
take quite a while because sometimes going through all the photo's is too 
painful to bear. It will happen at some point soon though. If anyone would 
like to see these just send me an e-mail and i will send you the website 
address as soon as it is completed.

Please take care everyone,

D at nnypie xoxo

Hi,

I feel a bit odd writing this, as it's been several years since I was one 
the sinister list. I peek in a bit every once and a while, and I read 
Danny's post on the web archives and it was like getting punched in the gut. 
I'm afraid I didn't know Amy that well, but she was one of the Michigan 
Sinister people and one day back at the beginning of November I met Amy and 
her brother at a Quasi/Stereolab show in Detroit and had a fantastic time 
chatting with the two of them.

They followed me to a diner on the way back to my home between Detroit and 
Grand Rapids and we stayed out a bit and had some food and laughed and had a 
generally great time. She later posted about it and said nice things about 
me. She was a charming young lady and her, her brother, and I had a great 
time laughing at each other and chatting for a time.

We kept in touch with a few emails here and there and she always wanted to 
make it to one of the Great Lakes picnics we had. Then life got in the way 
and I left the list and lost track of her and here it is years later and 
Elise asks me if I've read the list lately and did I know an Amy.

I can't even begin to imagine what Danny and her family are feeling now and 
I wouldn't begin to think that any words I had might make things easier on 
anyone, but Danny mentioned that he hadn't thought many people had met her 
and I just wanted to say that I had the pleasure and it was a lovely time 
and she was a lovely young lady with intelligence and energy and it's a 
poorer world without her.

I'm glancing at other windows as I write this. One has Danny's post and the 
other has a post from Amy from the 4th of November, 2001 and she mentioned 
the concert and the diner and myself in passing and it makes me smile to 
think of it and to see her writing where she calls me Mr. Punk Rawk. I've 
been thinking of that concert and all the laughs I had with her brother and 
her all day, and I just wanted to say something, to tip my hat to the memory 
of a wonderful person.

I wish I had more to say. I wish I had known her better so I could have 
something to say. I just wanted to say that once upon a time I had the 
pleasure of meeting  two great people at a concert thanks to the sinister 
list and years later it breaks my heart to think that one of those lovely 
people have passed on.

Like Danny I don't believe in any type of god, so I don't have any prayers 
for her, but I have memories and my thoughts are with Danny and Amy's 
family.

Take care, Danny.

To all the old sinster kids, cheers, and bless the lot of you.

Jim.

I know Danny will know all this, as he's heard from me separately,
but I always feel it's so important to mark time and loss, and
Sinister seems to be being hurt badly recently, with the loss of two
lovely people.  I knew Amy through the list of course, and through
the #sinister chatroom in Sinister's "Amy years" of 2001 and 2002 and
she just was a joy: always a lightning bundle of fizzing energy, and
so inclusive and kind to all.  She was the only Sinister member who
apparently made up poems about me in her head while shaving her legs.
I never got to hear one, sadly.  I don't know what to say without
making it sound like an elegy, but, as with Liz, I just feel such an
urge to call out to them that they'll not be forgotten.

Like Danny and James, I've long ago dropped my fierce teenage clinging
to religious belief as a way through, and am still to come to terms
with a world where people disappearing makes any sense.  Yet, as with
everyone who dies, it feels like such a cruel thing to use the past
tense and I always pull back from it, as if it's bad grammar or just
nonsensical.  I still talk and think of my mum in the present, and
she was gone before Sinister was even born.  I wish she'd been here
to meet you all (she'd have loved everything about this list), and
I'm sure she'd have mailed you all more frequently than me.  Maybe my
intuition's trying to tell me something: regardless, there's a candle
lit today by my bed, it smells sweet and gentle and it's for you, Amy.
Cardamon and orange, if you need to know.

Danny, I can tell already from our mails and hearing from your elsewhere
that you're strong enough to get through this: or not through, but with
this.  To all those who knew and loved Amy much better than me, love
love.

Honey

Helloooo sinisters,

Sorry I haven't been in touch lately, I had like, loads of things to talk
about too but one thing led to another and I didn't get round to it.

So, apparently, the new album is gonna be made all the way in LA, and
involves writing in a circle with everyone in the band.  I am secretly
hoping that this was like a Tandem Writing kind of thing, or like the
drinking game in which, in a circle in turn you have to add a word to the
end of a sentence and then repeat it, and keep it making sense.

I once played this game with some friends and we realised that as long as we
keep adding adjectives to the end the game will never end.

My ideal lyrics to "Crazy Little Frog"
--------------------------------------
I saw a big white crazy cute mental automatic
pneumatic demented
cyclic psychotic insane
loony harebrained
nutty potty trained

Frog

Who was absurd and foolish
and mentally deficient and
likes nutty cheese with the
wacky brain smelling like a

Frog.

<refrain>
Frog, frog, frog, here it comes
Frog, frog, frog, here it comes
</refrain>

And repeat.


Honestly though.  Am I the only one who is quite happy for the band now that
they're hitting Proper big time?  With LA studios and biography and a
comic!!  Plus filming for the BBC with colour coordinated fans!

Also: The other day, I found "Wrapped up in books" "I'm a cuckoo" and "Step
into my office, baby" at a video juke box inside an "It's A Scream!" pub, I
sat down, and listened to some B+S while I polished off an orange crush
Sourz Towers.  It was good times.

Things I would like to see next.
1) Chix-factor - a nationwide talent search with the winner becoming a new
member of B+S.
2) Belle and Sebastian the TV series (but not as in LE belle et sebastien TV
series with that dog thing)
3) Goalkeeper's revenge - a 'celebrity' 5-a-side football game for the PS2,
featuring teams such as B+S, Mogwai, sigur ros.  Plus unlockable hidden
teams Slot Jockey and NME

(notice email subject line!)


-----------------------

More seriously now.  Just want to send my condolences to Danny and all who
knew Amy, I only knew her through the chatroom and also a brief encounter in
Chicago before the B+S show and I already know from there now wonderful a
person she was.  I still remember the nice pressie I once got, and the
transatlantic mixtape challenge.

The answer is..

I am confused. Although "pisses over any bit torrents" is an image that 
will stay with me..

The time for teasing is over.

The "surprise" album, alluded to in our previous mail, is "If You're Feeling Sinister: Live At The Barbican". This download-only album, which pisses all over any bit torrents you may have heard, will be available exclusively from iTunes on December 6th. As a further incentive to follow the path of righteousness, all proceeds will be donated to the DEC's Asia Quake Appeal.

We are fairly sure it's going to be available in all the International iTunes shops from the above date, BUT it's not absolutely certain, and it's kind of outwith our control, so no promises in that department. Bear with us though, because it will happen, and it's worth it, as anyone who was at the show could testify.

You can download iTunes from http://www.apple.com/itunes/

Enjoy!
Cheers, B&S.

That reminds me, I still haven't got that downloadable
track that I *paid for* out of my *pocket money* off
the Save The Whale album or whatever it was. The one
about a kebab shop.

I think the Another Late Night album was more of a
surprise really. I had a quick aural shufty at the B&S
track and it sounded warm and sophisticated,
multi-layered and exqusitely textured.

That is all. I just wanted to contribute to our
thriving online community.

I went past the Po Caff the other day.

Hello again,

Two posts in the space of three days.  If posting to sinister were  some
kind of profession that one has a manager for, my sinister manager would be
complaining right now about my suffocating posting schedule.

But as it is, there are song title puns to be made, and there are soon to be
more, from the exciting new album!  I'm filling myself up to the ears with
anticipation right now, and especially now, that I hear there will be a song
called 'Mornington Crescent'.  Which I presume is either a reference to the
place between Camden Town and Euston, or a reference to that game that
references said place.

Would it just be a recording of Stuart playing 'Mornington Crescent', with
some jaunty guitar in the background?  Who would win?  And by what rule
would victory have been achieved?

----------

Sod it, I'm going to try and guess the whole lot.

Act Of The Apostle Part 1
- Something about how this man once forgot his own song lyrics 3 times,
until some cock from the crowd shouts it out to remind him

Another Sunny Day
- Global Warming

White Collar Boy
- A boy in a juvenile detention centre who got gang raped by fellow inmates,
and then given the pearl necklace

The Blues Are Still Blue
- How Chelsea Football Club hasn't really changed despite the influx of cash
from Roman Abramovich

Dress Up In You
- Transvestism, and/or the fur trade.

Sukie In The Graveyard
- Taking his beloved Suzuki Vitara to the pound after it failed the MOT.

We Are The Sleepyheads
- Date rape

Song For Sunshine
- Ozone layer

Funny Little Frog
- Result of a drinking game (see previous post)

To Be Myself Completely
- Parody of Radiohead.  Lyrics: That there, that is me.  I am here, this is
happening.  *wailing*

Act Of The Apostle Part 2
- About how this dude sold a Belle and Sebastian ticket on ebay, for £30.
And then the computer hanged itself.

For The Price Of A Cup Of A Tea
- Oh I don't know.  Isobel?

Mornington Crescent
- Recording of Sturan playing Mornington Crescent

Are you excited?
Ken

I'm toying with the idea of taking my 5 year old girl to the Bristol show in
February but they don't allow U-14s in the bar - Christ thats 4/5ths of the
fan base ruled out then....takings will be down that night.  Maybe i'll
deposit the maid in left luggage at Templemeads with my portable digital
gramaphone - she'll never know the difference.

Maybe someone could kindly tell the bands management that there is a modern
road network beyond Portishead and that we're not all cattle-worrying,
cyder-swilling, incestuous yokels that would undoubtably put the woolies up
Struan.  Obviously I can't exclude my wife from that last bit...

As for portable digital gramaphones, if I've already donated a Breville
Sandwich Toaster and a winter duvet to the earthquake appeal, can I have a
freebie?  No really, for an extra 4 shillings can you just send me the
noisy, cheery crowd scenes and I'll try and do something clever with the
original???

So Peter Miller is still having problems with the badly packaged kebab
download...it sounds terrible Miller - the track that is - does anyone know
how to edit the sound on there so it doesn't f**k my earphones up?

I think Ken's been around Peter's watching old porn flicks....I'm struggling
to work out the white collar link but it's given me wood none-the-less.

I'm going on another 6 year sabbatical now...

Subject: Sinister: I want that Kebabsong but how?
Message-ID: <BAY110-F215B4BBFA3F3785961C48CBE5E0@phx.gbl>

Ihhh, my shelf is crowded with records. Soon I'll have to buy a new one. 
I've been shopping online, every record I've been wanting to check out since 
I was about fifteen, and some new ones I found to. Actually there's so much 
good music out there that I'm getting all dizzy when I think about it, and 
have to sit down in my armchair and write a few poems and eat some icecream 
to calm myself down. I think it's a good thing that my newly bought computer 
is in a city far away so that I can not use it regularly. If I did I would 
spend all the money I've saved and end up on the street with a big big 
collection of records which I would have to drag after me in a big big sack, 
and they would get broken and I would get thin an sick. All in all it would 
be bad.

I've also bought a vacuum cleaner online. It really sucks to pay money for 
such a boring thing, but I guess it's part of growing up, at least in this 
twisted world. Hrm...maybe my problems aren't that big. I've probably never 
end up on the street, unless I start doing drugs and I don't think I'll need 
that. I'll stick to coffee. It actually gives me psycadelic perception and a 
strong feeling of hapiness. I guess I'm lucky, coffee is not too dangerous.

I've got one more problem, though it's not the biggest problem in the world. 
I bought a record called Help! A Day in the Life and thought that the 
Kebabsong that's been discussed recently, would be on it. There was a lot of 
other great songs so it was a good mistake I made, but I still want the 
Kebabsong. If someone could help me out I would really be pleased.

In my town the grass and the trees and the roof and everything else is 
covered with a pale glittering frost. I feel like I'm part of a fairytale 
and I'm quite fascinated by the fact that I'm not, that it's actually 
reality this place were I'm walking around.

Hope you to are enjoying the winter starting.

... it's worth mentioning, for the record, that even if the
download-only "Sinister live" thing is available at various
internation iTunes music stores, there are still a hell of a lot of
countries whicu don't actually have an iTunes music store. Like, for
example, New Zealand. (And, OK, I'nly thinking of myself here, but I'm
sure the indie kids in Iceland are probably equally pissed ...)

I've been stung before by this sort of thing, from other bands I love
a lot less than B&S. But now I'm kinda miffed and annoyed. And it's
not like I can even give someone else the money and they can download
the songs for me, because iTunes wraps Digital Rights Management
software around the files, to lock them to the specific computer they
were bought from.

I guess the other, more fundamental issue is, even when the
opportunity presents itself, I really hate paying for digial music.
There's something so nice about the physical oblect of a record or a
CD, and scrolling to an MP3 in iTunes has none of those exciting
tactile thrills. You know the excitement of going to the record store,
and then tearingopen the shrinkwrap on the bus home, poring over the
booklet, reading the lyrics and the credits? It's all gone ...

OK, so this is basically a big whinge, and I'm sorry. But I feel
annoued that, as someone whose been a massive fan of B&S for something
like nine years, my country of choice now prevents me from even buying
the bands' new album. It's bad enough knowing they'll never ever play
a shpw here, but I'd always assumed I'd at least be able to buy every
one of their albums.

In positive news, Vanessa and I celebrated our fourth wedding
anniversary a couple of days ago. I can't remember if I ever posted
this to the list, but when I was sendoing out invites, I took a punt
and sent one, along with a wee note, to Stuart Murdoch. About 10 days
larer I got a lovely hanfwritten note back, saying he couldn't make
it, but wishing us well for the day. That gesture meant so much to me,
and the letter still sits neatly tucked in the sleeve of my "The Boy
With The Arab Strap" LP.

Anyway, hope all's well in sisist*r-land

Lawrence

don't you girls?

Although hopefully i won't actually be on fire as such.  As I'm supposed to 
board a plane eastboard to the orient.  No not Leyton.  But Hong Kong!  
Sweet.  In about two hours!  Yeah I'm actually at the airport right now on 
this internet machine.  How high tech?  I'm really bored as you can imagine. 
  I've even already sprayed each of my fingers with a different Bodyshop 
perfume scent sample and now my hand smells really weird.

When will B+S have their own private jet?  The way they tour the world these 
days... Is there a continent that they have not played in aside from 
Antarctica?  Have they done Africa yet?

Any Hong Kong sinisters fancy a pint sometime in the next couple weeks?  
Email me.  we can share perfume tips.

okay one minute left.  Bye!

Hey there
  Thought you lovely folk might appreciate the chance
to cut some rug within perspiring distance of members
of Belle and Sebastian. I was lucky enough to cavort
around to the discs spun by Stuart Murdoch at How Does
it Feel in London last year. It was really nice to
interact in a "normal" way with someone who has always
been an inspiration. He even reacted with gentle good
humour when I asked him in a comedy fashion about some
lyrics I had misinterpreted for years (I now realise
it is "Old Compton" a street in London mentioned in
the Boy with the Arab Strap and not "Contin" a little
known village in Scotland. Hey-ho
) Anyway, I
digress
members of Belle & Sebastian will be DJ-ing on
Friday 25th November @ 9pm, the Mint Lounge,
Manchester.
There is also a B&S night @ Smile, the Star & Garter,
Manchester on Saturday 26th November for all those
fortunate enough to reside in Lancashire.
  Mr Murdoch was also kind enough to listen to my
shamelessly B&S inspired music released under the
moniker of the Jim Muir Slideshow. The Guardian gave
us single of the week and said it "Comes from that
great Cocker/Weller/Morrissey tradition of kitchen
sink dramas set to fantastic tunes." You can listen
and download the EP for free at the following link

I'd be delighted to know people's thoughts on my
blatant plagiary! Please mail me your learned thoughts
off the list.
You all take care & have a great weekend whatever you
get up to

This is my first post in maybe....6 years? It is only a matter I thought might
be of some interest to members of the list that pulled me out of my lurking
status. It is almost impossible to find B & S gigposters, as it seems in the UK
they are not as popular or profitable for the artists (see gigposters.com if you
are curious) and in the U.S. they play often in festivals so the posters are not
just B & S posters, but posters for the entire festival itself(like Coachella).
My fiance makes gigposters freelance and while I wish I could say he had done
the lovely Belle and Sebastian one currently available- it is not so. The artist
name is Michael Michael Motorcycle. His work is all self done, start to finish
(including the screenprinting, etc. This was a rather limited run of posters
(several hundred) and if you go to his website you will see how lovely his work
is. We had the good fortune to be located across the row from him and his
beautiful wife and faithful dog this summer at Flatstock/Bumbershoot in Seattle
and they are some of the nicest and most talented people I have ever had the
pleasure of meeting. We have even asked them to do our wedding announcements (if
we ever figure out when we are actually going to do this marriage thing).
Anyway...I am running on. Right now the prints are I think 100 dollars US, the
price will go up when he gets to the posters numbered 100 and below.  I am not
sure how many of you would be interested but I was when I found out in August he
was going to do a poster for them and have been waiting ever since...

All those years nurturing his creativity on the dole has paid off, Stuart
David, estwhile bassist of Belle and Sebastian has made pots of cash by
allowing one of his tunes to be used by Xerox.

I heard Stuart interviewed and he seemed surprised that this story was
picked up now, as the advert has been running for years, but here it is..

Article in the Herald last Monday (courtesy of Google cache)..

 " The few seconds of music that proved a œ500,000 earner
  MARTIN WILLIAMS       November 22 2005

 THEY don't have a record deal and give away their music free through
Their website. But Looper, a little-known Scottish band, have earned about
£500,000 in royalties after one of their instrumentals was adopted as the
signature tune for Xerox, the largest document management company in the
world.

Mondo 77 is heard each day by millions of Americans on national
television, although the vast majority will have no idea that the band,
which formed through Glasgow School of Art, is responsible for it.
While pop tracks are often used to sell everything from iPods to cars,
they usually have a short shelf life.

However, Looper's simple electronic tune has become a permanent fixture
in the US, having been a staple on every Xerox advert since it was
discovered by company executives three years ago.
The track, which was first released five years ago on the band's album
Geometrid, has also previously cropped up on the films Vanilla Sky and
The Edukators. The Glasgow-based band was formed by Stuart David, a
founding member of Belle and Sebastian, and his wife, Karn.
Mondo 77 was chosen for use in the commercials by Adam Leibovitz, who
edited the initial adverts for Xerox. "The song's simplicity, energy,
modern style and sense of humour made it an important element that worked
well with the communications objective of the commercials," said a
spokeswoman for the firm.

Their UK record company Jeepster closed four years ago, and Looper
recorded their last album, The Snare, the following year.
  It was the first of a proposed five-LP deal with the Mute record label,
  also home to Depeche Mode, Erasure and Goldfrapp, but the band
  subsequently left Mute.

  "We don't sell any records any more," said David. "I am pleased that
  Looper didn't take off in a big way it's not good for you in the long
  run, I don't think.

  "I can only think of two or three fans we've ever heard from off the back
  of the Xerox ad. I think people who hear it on the ad have less
  opportunity to find out what it is.

  "It [Mondo 77] brings in enough money for us to have been able to treat
It as being our job."

  The band is working on an album which they hope will be available as a
  download only.

  David formed Belle and Sebastian with Stuart Murdoch in an all-night cafe
  in Glasgow in 1996, after meeting while on a youth opportunity scheme
  learning to be music engineers.

  Looper formed the following year for a show at the Glasgow School of Art,
  initially as a side project of Belle and Sebastian, with which David was
  the bass player.

  He played samplers, sang and told stories, while his wife projected her
  films and presented kinetic sculptures.

LOOPER MAKE A LIVING OUT OF A PHOTOCOPIER TV AD

STUART DAVID, FORMERLY OF BELLE AND SEBASTIAN AND 
CURRENTLY OF LOOPER, HAS RAKED IN £500,000 IN 
ROYALTIES FROM SELLING HIS SONG 'MONDO 77' TO 
XEROX FOR USE IN AN ADVERT.
"WE DON'T SELL ANY RECORDS ANY MORE," SAID DAVID. 
"I AM PLEASED THAT LOOPER DIDN'T TAKE OFF IN A 
BIG WAY - IT'S NOT GOOD FOR YOU IN THE LONG RUN, 
I DON'T THINK."
"I CAN ONLY THINK OF TWO OR THREE FANS WE'VE EVER 
HEARD FROM OFF THE BACK OF THE XEROX AD. I THINK 
PEOPLE WHO HEAR IT ON THE AD HAVE LESS 
OPPORTUNITY TO FIND OUT WHAT IT IS."
WHAT'S MORE, THE BAND HAVE BEEN ABLE TO LIVE ON 
THE PROCEEDS OF THE SONG FOR THE LAST FIVE YEARS. 
FANTASTIC NEWS. MAYBE NOW WE KNOW WHY HE LEFT 
B&S. TO TOP THAT OFF, LOOPER ARE CURRENTLY 
WORKING ON AN ALBUM WHICH FANS WILL BE ABLE TO 
DOWNLOAD FROM THEIR WEBSITE FOR FREE.
