@CILDAD A pastie is typically a pastery snack filled with meat and/or vegitables.
Or see what qwerty2409 said =]
I think it is more the pastry type stuart is singing of as in the interview gerdex refered to it was said that it was written on Greggs, which if you didnt know, is a shop that sells bakes foods etc =]
From an Interview with John McKeown of The Yummy Fur:
"[...] before they did Belle and Sebastian, they were called Le Pastie De la Bourgeoisie. Me and my sister and Jamie, we lived across from Greggs, (bakery) and we spray-painted that. We wanted to do a Jean-Luc Godard meets '68 slogan, but totally empty, really empty, empty statement. But Stuart must've seen it written on the side of Greggs' wall, and took it or whatever, which I thought was quite nice"
Well, I don't know..incredible!

A wonderful performance, but I thought the woman's backup vocals were a bit too much.

Very very nice performance. Thank you for posting it. This is one of my favourites songs, but it's really better live.
