I only wish I hadn't typo'd every other word of that :P

 

:lol: it's alright, I didn't mind

Eeeeeep, new Travis newsletter. I'll post it here in case of someone doesn't have it.

 

 

Dear All,

 

Travis are currently approaching the end of a three week tour of Canada, the US and Mexico.

Between US dates they also paid a visit to the radio station- KCRW, as guests of Nic

Harcourt on the show "Morning Becomes Eclectic".

 

Travis' first appearance on this show was way back in 1997, with their first album Good

Feeling and they have returned on a regular basis ever since. KCRW host an excellent archive

of all these appearances, including the real video stream of the show from January 29th this

year, which features an interview and live session.

 

You can view this at:

UK NEWS: U16 GIRLS SURFBOARD AT THE ICA

 

The surfboard featured on Travis' single U16 Girls is travelling to the ICA this February as part

of an exhibition of the artwork of John Squire. Squire's artwork became one of the defining

images of the 'Madchester' movement, gracing the cover of The Stone Roses debut album and all

the single sleeves. As far as we know Travis are the only band to have a sleeve designed by John

Squire, other than The Stone Roses & The Seahorses.

Another European tour!!! Pleeeeeeeeeeease, Barcelonaaaaaaaa!!!

 

*sends mental messages to travis crew*

^ wow I just got that news letter, you'd be SUPER lucky if you got to see them again! :o :D

Ooooh yeah, it would be FRAN-tastic... *imitates Mandy's words*

 

And you should come here to see them with me, whoooaa!! :D

HE is the sweetest, definitely!! Aaaaaaaaaaaw... :kiss:

 

Ok, then there's no need to sniff it? :P :P :P

I hope you won't need my glue, no broken hearts! :smug:

 

That wouldn't be cool if you chose to sniff the glue instead of mend my heart.

Oh.

 

Awww! hahaha that would be terrible!! :lol: awwwwwwwwwww poor Richard lol

 

I have this vision of my sitting on one side of a busy city street. Across the traffic, on the opposite sidewalk, stands Noni, bottle of glue in hand, queer smile on her face.

 

At first I'm excited. She's finally come to put my heart back together! For a moment, the pain that's been plaguing me for years dissipates. Anticipation takes over.

 

A large freight truck passes, obscurring my view temporarily. Flashes of colored paint from the truck's side panel artwork give way to the re-vision of Noni. This time her smile is not queer and she's no longer just holding the glue bottle. The pain in my chest shoots back, and I take a step forward to go and convince her of the mistake. "No, Noni!" I would say. "You don't realize what you're going!"

 

But I stop after one step, realizing the traffic is too heavy. Another freight truck passes, but this time my head turns to follow it. To my right I see no intersections, no stop lights. The only thing I see is traffic coming, traffic going. I turn my head to the left: Same thing. Buildings, cars, asphault and traffic. And Noni across the street sniffing away.

 

The tears form in my eyes and I sit on the curb, elbows on my knees as my feet plant themselves in the gutter. My chin in my palms, hands cupped on the sides of my face, I sit and stare at my love sniff, sniff, sniffing away my last chance at a mended heart. Love will never be for me again. My love has chosen the glue over us.

 

Where are the kings horses and kings men when you need them?

 

:stunned: Oh my!! I'm gonna contract you as script writer!! When I was reading I had the sequence in my mind!!

HE is the sweetest, definitely!! Aaaaaaaaaaaw... :kiss:

 

Ok, then there's no need to sniff it? :P :P :P

I hope you won't need my glue, no broken hearts! :smug:

 

If you sniff it, then how is my heart gonna get put back together?

That wouldn't be cool if you chose to sniff the glue instead of mend my heart.

Oh.

I'm getting sad just thinking about it.

My, broken hearted, watching V sniff the glue ... feeling the pain well in my chest as she's sniffing away.

 

No.

Not cool.

Don't do it, Noni.

 

I didn't know your heart needed to be put back... :cry: But I got the glue and I'll use it if you need it.

You know I was just joking. I'm not gonna sniff it. I only need a drug, and it's not glue...

:kiss:

Hottest summer in a hundred years

But summer didn't bother

Getting up this morning

And so all the trees forgot to wake

They were dropping all their leaves

On the ground below them

 

But here

Closer every year

So near

The fear is coming clear

My dear

 

******** The fEaR is Here ********
