In further pursuit of my goal of turning TMS into a Belle & Sebastian fansite, here’s the INTERNET VIDEO PROGRAMME that the band have been streaming on their home page for the last wee whiley. NOW WITH ADDED iPHONE DOWNLOADABILITY! I might give that a shot to see if I can get it on my iPod Classic.
Despite it’s online free-ness, I’m a little disappointed that this isn’t going to be appearing as a DVD bonus (like the DVD edition of The Life Pursuit). I love me some DVD bonus guff.
It’s a charming thing with some music, interviews and a bunch of shots of Glesgae looking improbably sunny. And a slightly poseurish opening statement about “what music can give us”. Never change, Belle & Sebastian!
(Tour dates and more after the jump…)
B&S also made an appearance on Late Night with Jimmy Fallon. No doubt you’ve seen the vid already, but in case you missed the appearance:
