"Chickfactor" is edited by Gail O'Hara. It's very good. Gail is pictured on the cover of The Magnetic Fields "Get Lost" record, which many of you probably own, I suspect (if you don't, you should. It's a perfect record). She's the one with the wavy-ish hair in the center of the back row. She and Stephin from The Magneic Fields are also rock critics for Time Out New York. I haven't seen it, but she apparently has a piece on B&S in this week's issue, and when she mentions Chickfactor (the song) she says something like "the song Chickfactor is about the New York music 'zine edited by...um....me." Kind of funny. love love love, Butch Sweaters Thessaly1@aol.com wrote:

hi there kids!

i met a wonderful girl last weekend who explained to me what the song chickfactor is about. it is the name of an indie magazine run from new york and the girl really likes belle and sebastian. this girl i met had gone from la to new york to see b and s last summer and met the "chickfactor" chick there at the show. supposedly she is really big on the indie scene there in nyc. so the 5 hours spoken of is the time difference from the uk to new york. the song is about her and the magazine.

too bad i forgot the name of chickfactor girl!
