inquiring typical girl needs to know:

where can i buy ana's UK 7" "in awe of a painting" here in the US?   i'd rather not have to order it from overseas if possible.    (by the way, amazon has her CD!    i know it's not an indie shop, but it still makes me happy to see it there available to all.)

by the way dept.:    if you call a gap store and are put on hold, it is likely that you'll hear le tigre's "TKO" as i've heard them play it several times.    another non-indie thing to smile about!   actually, the gap began, in 1969, as a record shop that sold some clothing too.   reminds me of the beloved 99 records store (in nyc in the 80's), where records and clothing also shared the shop's space and where i bought the first raincoats album based on the cover and, then, ed bahlman's recommendation!   : )
