so on the xx website, there's that new link to 'shirts' and there are shirts and cds and vinyl and stuff and also some pretty rad buttons. a couple of the buttons, however, confuse me. why do they say 'oui oui' instead of xiu xiu? example: www.backstreet-merch.com/bands/xiu/product.asp?item=xiu19pourquoi, monsieur, pourquoi??? |

has anyone read 'women as lovers' the book? it's written by the same guy who wrote the book that 'the piano teacher' is based off of, right?
