Not really dear :) OK, I know most of you have probably seen this, but just in case. Also I assume the offer of a trip to g-town is UK only... Real actual ink polaroids at some point in the near future when/if work stops being a complete bee-yotch, have immensely enjoyed reading everyone elses... xoxo CarsmileSteve PS W *W* DPD, btw? --- shop@banchory.net wrote:

Hi you guys

As you maybe know, one of the many little pies that we currently have our sticky fingers wedged into is this DVD that we''re compiling. Well its shaping up OK thanks to our canny editor, Blair, but we feel that it needs a little bit of spicing up in some departments. The footage is spread obviously back to 1996, and you do see a little bit of the band talking about their hobbies and weaknesses in a 1996 kind of way. But now it''s 2003 and we feel like this needs to be investigated a little further, so we''re looking for 2 reporters amongst you to come to Glasgow and spend some time with the band in a series of personal and probably unexotic locations.

Blair would like to film you as you cruised into Glasgow on a mission.He''d film you interviewing the whole band in groups or one at a time, over a couple of days. A genuine curiousity about the group and what we''re up to and what we''re into is probably just about all you would need. You would also need to be available pretty soon. I think Blair wants to shoot in under two weeks though that''s subject to confirmation.

It''s maybe a chance to ask us some of the things that I personally never get round to answering on the QA''s (though Sarah, Beans, Mick and Stevie seem to do pretty well just now) Ask us anything you want. Well you can ask me anything you want, I can''t speak for us all...

Tell you what, if you are keen, write and tell us in less than 200 words why you might like to be chosen for this particular project. Aside from the fact that we''ll get you here, put you up in a nice hotel, take you out for a slap up dinner and probably get you pissed.

Go on, it could be fun! Stuart

If you want to take part in this, please email your "essay" to band@banchory.net and put "reporter" in the subject line. Thanks, Katrina.
