Topic: brett in bristol Name: david Date: 16-10-01 18:10 hi folks this was supposed to go up on suede.net yesterday, but there seems to be some kind of technical hitch, so here's what happened . . . *************************************************** BRETT PREVIEWS NEW MATERIAL AT BRISTOL POETRY FESTIVAL Brett Anderson treated fans to a sneak preview of new Suede songs during his headlining appearance at the climax of the Bristol Poetry Festival last night (Sunday 14th). The Suede frontman read selected parts of various lyrics from his back catalogue including "Killing Of A Flash Boy", "Trash", "Introducing The Band", "Beautiful Ones", "Heroine" and "Daddy's Speeding". He also read from two new works. The very topical- sounding "Refugees" contained the lines "Standing at the traffic lights / threading through the hostile cars / staring with our almond eyes / not allowed in certain bars / We虐e all refugees / drifting through doorways / walking the streets / seeking asylum / safe from disease / we are all refugees." The other new reading was from "Simon", a song of love and loss: "It's raining inside and it旧 raining tonight and it旧 raining for me and for you / Cos all that we see is a life fucked by money and a world of celebrity fools." The undoubted highlight, however, was when Brett pulled out an acoustic guitar and sang three songs to the delighted crowd. He opened with "Indian Strings" from 1999's Head Music album followed up with another new song, "Oceans" and ended with the classic 1994 b-side, "The Living Dead." ***************************************************** also . . . expect loads of stuff about the dvd soon. we're planning to do a web based competition, involving our favourite fan sites. we welcome your suggestions as to the best sites in your valued opinions . . . meanwhile, details of the vhs version of lost in tv have been confirmed. it will contain all the uk singles, plus the drowners (us version), europe is our playground and can't get enough (australian version), running to something like 90 minutes. the dvd will contain something like 4 hours worth of stuff! dbx -- suede information service p.o. box 3431 london n1 7lw uk --
