Hey Moray!
Andy Dunlop Does one which has multiple Wordles at the same time. I did Wordle for a while. I got it in one go once. Andy also got it in one another time. A 1/2309 chance. Andy is the person to ask about these sorts of things. I slid off Wordle after a couple of months. My newest one is called WRITE A SONG. It’s bloody tricky.

This is the best part of parenting. Filling them with shit loads of cool experiences. And that cane be a gig or it can be fiddly winks on a rainy day or building forts with covers or dancing in the kitchen. Good on you. Glad you made the trip. Vive La France!

Unfortunately that happens. It’s hard to stop. At least here you know it’s us.

Belle and Sebastian at The Vic Bar, Glasgow School School of Art. One of their first gigs. I’d known Stuart for 4 years. His best friend Ciara (person on the cover of Sinister) was the sister of my best friend Jude so we would see us in the hallway from time to time. Anyways I was not expecting what I saw. Proper genius level songwriting and the band were totally locked. Just saw them in Hollywood the other night playing that very album. So many incredible bands to have come out of our wee city.

Hey Leslivon,
We are from Glasgow and mostly, Glasgow folk are that way. It’s always cool to meet folk after the show and we always try to do it. I remember one time on a tour in the US ages ago, we were all jet lagged and had had a very technically challenging show. Our tour manager at the time said there were a lot of fans outside but there was a side door we could exit “quietly” I remember thinking hmmm I don’t know about this… So we packed up and exited and were walking up the alley when suddenly we heard a scream and then our tour manager shouted RUN and we all just bolted and fans were chasing us up the alley and their screams soon turned into expletive laden tirades “Fuck youuuu Travis” “Fucking assholes!!” etc. It was horrible. Lesson learned 🙂

Not us. I’ll have the brass look into it. We have had various other Travis’s post songs in that platform which have logged as us. Some quite exotic music and others. Takes ages to fix it. Thanks for flagging.

I’m always amazed to see fights break out in a Travis audience. Always alcohol related. Always to do with one person telling someone else to shut up or put their phone away. I was at the Belle and Sebastian show on Friday and Saturday this week in LA at the Hollywood Palladium. On the Saturday we were standing and 2 couples came in and shouted loudly at each other throughout the first half of the set. I eventually turned around and told them I knew the band and if they wanted, I could go and ask the sound guy to turn it down a bit so they could hear themselves better. One of them got fighty but his girlfriend tamped it out and they went elsewhere.
Anyways

There are no plans to do that album live as yet. It’s interesting, because for a long time I couldn’t listen to the record… not that I listen to our records after we finish them. By the time we finish them they have been listened to death. It’s more maybe that it left a foul taste in my mouth. I was whipped hard for more singles and more singles, so much so that I was left feeling the album was never good enough. Afew of years ago I listened to it again and was overwhelmed. It was really good. My Eyes, Closer, Selfish Jean, Big Chair. I HATE Eyes Wide Open…. oh god it’s awful. My favorite part of the recording was double tracking the baseline with timpani drums to get the desired “Lust for Life” feel we were after. That was one of the first covers we played when we rehearsed above The Horseshoe Bar in Glasgow in 1996. I think it was because it was on the Trainspoting soundtrack.
