In Other News...
The Beta Band have split up, probably because of the (rumoured) huge debt they owe their record company, which in turn is probably because they keep making wonderful, expensive, luscious records that no bugger buys.

Hey, as soon as it's not $26.99 in my local HMV, I'll finally be able to afford buying it (I know that's not the band's fault, but it's a problem, nonetheless).
Haven't you heard of the internet?
Downloading the album isn't exactly supporting the band financially, is it?
I didn't say I hadn't heard it, I did say I wasn't helping.
Oh, and PS - fuck off, asshole.
Boys, toys back in the pram please, this is most unseemly.
Ian - Geoff Love is one of my oldest friends (well, no, actuallynot, it just seems that way).
Geoff - makes a change for you to make a bad impression and me to pave it over!
Plus the band don't actually NEED supporting financially because they've split up and therefore presumably liquidated / posted as bankrupt. Also the people at their label are meant to be total cunts.
This is a lesson that complete creative control is NOT necessarily a good thing.
What i actually meant was that you can buy things cheaper on the internet. Buy it in England and ship it over, purchase it in Finland and fly it to you. I meant pay less than $26.99 in your local HMV, they're the people who are actually arseholes.
Those and the people who download music and don't buy it when they've heard it for free. They're arseholes too.
Ah, I see. Apologies, Geoff (although that's still a pretty poor way to phrase it) (and I'd had a few, a phenomenon I know Nick is familiar with).
