He’s based in Germany, which does lend kudos, so I’ll second it.

If you've got a German on board, it won't just be a clique or a gang. It'll be Der Shins-Anhängerverein von 2021 e. V... There'll be official titles, membership fees, tax relief on those membership fees, compulsory video conferences starting at 20:23 hrs. every third Friday of the month (with minutes and attendance lists), password-protected spreadsheets that never work, weekly newsletters containing broken links, payment reminders and countless reprimands about the state of the clubhouse kitchen, a quarterly magazine called Tibia and club tracksuits with your initials on the breast pocket and thigh that cost 500 euros a go.

Given our respective lines of work, those sound exactly the kinds of things that Sits and I would be into.

Sweet sounding merch. I might retro-fit liking The Shins just to get the tracksuit.

Sorry sunshine but "I'll just retrofit liking The Shins" isn't going to hack it.

Harsh. It was like sunshine breaking through clouds, the first time that I heard, erm, The Shins' Greatest Hits.

This is way too accurate to be funny. Though I do possess a nice tracksuit from the football club where I coach(ed)* with the initials IMP on that didn't cost me a penny. And I never go to meetings of any description if I can help it.

*they recently invited me to a coaches' bbq, where my replacement as head coach on the boys U10 team plied me with drink, then persuaded me to come back as his assistant coach in the new year. "No pressure!" he kept saying as he placed another bottle in front of me.

I don't think you can get "Greatest Hits" from the Shins, because every single one is a Great Hit (I want in on the tracksuit action too)

No, I remember that one too. (Presumably you are referring to 'Below The Belt').

That's the one.
