I'd release my pigeons too if I had any. "Fly free my feathered friends... Fly... Fly". Pop group no, no, fraid not, mind you I'll be playing on a remix of the new Finitribe single which should be quite good fun. My mum and dad both liked Belle and Sebastian too. I'm buying a computer this week too so I'll get a fantastic new email account at home. At that point too Peter, fancy a bit of Internet Relay Chat, indeed we could designate a quiet chat room and the Belle and Sebastian list could have a "Virtual Robo-Cyber meeting" - let me know if anyone fanices that. Cheers, Keith. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- . This message was brought to you by the Sinister mailing list. .

Sinister: Tigermilk offer...in a bit.
by ben ferneyhough 26 Nov '97

For all those desperate for a copy of Tigermilk, I'll do a copy for people in the UK, but you'll just have to wait a week, as I'm moving house, and so this is just to say I'll re-post this offer next week or the week after. This note-ette is to let you know someone will do the honours for you, just hang on for a bit longer.....Ben. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- .

>speaking of which is anyone else finding the surfeit of 'perfect day' a bit strange? i mean, bbc1 are using the new version to urge people to pay their television licenses and channel 4 are using the (much better) original in order to publicise the fact that they're showing 'trainspotting' sometime this week... I wonder if the BBC realize that 'Perfect Day' is all about taking heroin? Danny Boyle presumably did. Nigel xx ----------------------------------------------------------------------- .

Sinister: Foyles bookstore... a big favor
by mlang＠inch.com 26 Nov '97

26 Nov '97

I need a big favor. The company I work for is trying to re-make a feature film and apparently the script is really really hard to find. I have heard it is possible to find at Foyles bookstore, but there is no way I can do this from New York. Foyles is in London I believe. If anyone is willing or can do anything to help me out, please email me and I will give you the details. I would really really appreciate it. By the way, the remake is extremely B&S related... one of their songs refers to the original and I would hope to get that very song to open the film..... all the best, steve ----------------------------------------------------------------------- .

Re: Sinister: I don't do drugs, all my friends are on their holidays
by Keith Watson 25 Nov '97

Now it's funny you should say that. On the first of the two occasions I ever took ecstacy, it was at a Flowered Up gig at Shoreditch Town Hall (this is 1990 or something). And I was convinced that the support were the future of music. Their name - Ocean Colour Scene. Kids - just say no.... ====================== Hoho - Top one, Sorted, i'm on one matey! Flowered up were a strange band really, very contrived "Baggy from the South" style thing, but surprisingly good in compared to what they should have been given that they were at the total arse end of that scene. Tag - got your tape and it's great, I haven't got through all of it yet but I've done you a tape - yourself and Peter's tape should be in the post this week, major apologies for the timing on this front as I say it's been release time for us and it's hectic. Listening to the song that St.Etienne played a few years ago brought back vivid memories which was good. I suppose I should have told Bob that as a matter of politeness - although I suppose also it may've seemed rude given that it's not their song! On the tape is a pile of Mo'Wax stuff, not including Shadow, although I've put Zimbabwe Legit and the Shadow mix of Krush's Meiso on it - which you may have, but it was worth the risk as they're brilliant. See you're meeting Susannah and Steven Trousee (can't find e acute on my keyboard I'm afraid) next week, hope that goes well and say hello from me, cheers for the ticket, are you coming up for the Glasgow thing then? I'll be going certainly, just put a new fan belt on my car so a wee jaunt along the M8 ought to recharge the battery! David Nicoll - Coming to Manchester then! Give us a shout. Cheers, Keith. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- . This message was brought to you by the Sinister mailing list. .

Sinister: tigermilk taping

I hated to be the one to break it to her. anyway, I offered some time back and I'll mention it again for the newcomers: if you're nearish to the u.s. and need a tape copy of tigermilk, get in touch privately. I'll do overseas ones if you're desperate (as I was mere months ago), but I'll bet there are still non-u.s. people who are up for it and you'll save on postage. cheers, pam pberry(a)washcp.com work plb(a)tiac.net home ----------------------------------------------------------------------- .

Sinister: tigermilk
by K. R. Scofield 25 Nov '97

25 Nov '97

I'm assuming that almost everyday there are new people joining this list. I myself joined not too long ago. Tell me if this is a good idea: perhaps someone/some people would like to post to the list that they're willing to tape Tigermilk for those who don't have it yet. Lot's of new people are asking for it, and it seems this would be a good way to make it work. Is this a good idea? I myself still don't have a copy, and was refraining from asking on the list for someone to tape it, because I figured people were sick of people asking for it. I don't know.......

Sinister: to all those in Glasgow....
by Soozy 25 Nov '97

25 Nov '97

Just a quick warning to all of you... There's going to be an enormous rag raid (ie collection) for the Royal National Institute For The Blind there this coming Saturday. So anyone wandering the city centre is liable to get pounced on and asked for any spare change they might have. On the bright side, you do get an attractive sticker! I only mention it as I'll be coming up with a few friends from Birmingham uni to join in, so if you see anyone dressed as an angel (all in silver, golden wings, tinsel halo) then come and say hi! Oh, and I'll probably be getting pissed with all the other raggies on Saturday evening so look out for me wherever the cheapest alcohol is to be found.

I can bear it no longer, I've been signed up to the list for less than a week and now must beg on my knees for someone, anyone to copy Tigermilk for me. Please, if anyone in Glasgow University or anyone even in the west end has a copy, get in touch. Eoghan ----------------------------------------------------------------------- .
