by MR NICK SANT 06 Nov '97

Has the list been VERY quiet or have i been moved to only getting the digest version? Anywho, i know someone with an original Tigermilk, Caitlin Moran who used to write for Melody Maker has got a copy. There, how many are accounted for now? Take Care, Love & Rage, Nick.

Sinister: Re: unfair kind of fame
by Katie Kinnear 06 Nov '97

06 Nov '97

Hello I saw someone who looked v. much like Dickon in Tower Records in Camden on Saturday. But not wanting to prostrate myself in front of a "name", I didn't say anything. :) And the floor didn't look very clean. bye Katie ----------------------------------------------------------------------- .

Sinister: London list meet
by stephen troussé 06 Nov '97

06 Nov '97

um, I had an idea about a possible location for the London meet up. We've got a very nice bar/café where I work in Covent Garden. Not only is it perfectly situated in the heart of London's swingin' west end, but it also has a very nice B&S ambience, and we could have complete control of the sound system. We could even get David or Katrina to bring along some of their highly prized merchandise. Friday nights aren't very busy, so that would probably be the best time to do it... What do you think?? Stephen whose claim to fame is that he was once kissed by Harriet from the Sundays... ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- ------------------------ The Poetry Society Website http://www.poetrysoc.com ----------------------------------------------------------------------- .

Sinister:register,London meet and lots,lots more (well...)
by G R Thomas 06 Nov '97

06 Nov '97

Hello all, And now for the intro proper... After my little missive (and accompanying apology) a while back, and what with the recent register mailings, I thought it about time I contributed to the list again. Age:19 Occupation: Another student, this time studying Linguistics, here at the University of Essex, in Colchester. Been into B+S since about September/October 1996, after hearing "Judy" on Mark Radcliffe (who I have to thank for introducing me to the whole of this type of music-more of that later). My favourite B+S song is probably Judy, and I own IYFS and the 3 EPs (DOW-CD, LLPJ-CD,7,12, 369-CD,7,12).I saw the band live in Oxford in August, where I met Katrina and David. A quick little profile of what I listen to: (i'll try not to make this too long,and I really hope no-body minds me doing this) I've been listening to Hip-Hop for 8/9 years now, and UK Hip-Hop exclusively for the last 4. I've been into Jungle and Happy Hardcore since '95, and am a semi-regular raver, And basically have been into pop/rock/guitar music (call it what you want, I don't think there's one unifying term to describe the music I like outside of Hip-Hop and Hardcore dance) since about Sept. 1996. The main bands I like in this genre are B+S (obv!!), Kenickie and the Sneaker Pimps. But, since I started listening to these types of music, my tastes have broadened significatly. This month (well October/early Nov) I've bought Ash, The Shirehorses,Dweeb, China Drum, B+S, plus various Hip-Hop and Jungle singles and albums (this might give you lot a small idea of what I like). Anyway, you'll have to excuse me if this message rambles or is boring or unimportant as I'm feeling highly unwell at the moment, and my brain is absolutely swimming, as I've just had to sort my way through 215 messagesn (a whole lot for me), 99% of 'em from you lot. Anyway, the London meet sounds great. Colchester is 50 mins. away, and my home tome is Reading (a big HIYA! to Mussadiq, mail me privately if you want to compare notes), so if it falls at a point when I'm home, then that wouldn't be a prob. So kids, that's about it, I'll speak to you all again soon (I promise,) Love, GIDEONxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx ----------------------------------------------------------------------- .

Sinister: My Claim To Fame
by klas.ericsson＠student.jmg.gu.se 06 Nov '97

06 Nov '97

Hi! My Claim To Fame is nothing really: When I was over in New York two months ago, I lived in the appartment of my girlfriends friend and her boyfriend. They had had Carlos (not the terrorist, but Madonnas stallion) visiting them one evening. So I guess I ´ve been sitting in the same sofa as Carlos, and overflowing the toilet which Carlos might have used! Everybody go: Woooooooooooooow!!! I also talked to Yngwie Malmsteens former drummer who had some EXCITING stories to tell. And I met Pavement on the latenight ferry from Helsingor to Helsingborg. They were playing flipper. And I´ve spoken to Stuart David for two minutes!!!!!!!!!! HOW ABOUT THAT? ///Klas ----------------------------------------------------------------------- .

Sinister: fame? maybe not...
by barzy＠networkmags.com 06 Nov '97

06 Nov '97

I don't know Jarvis Cocker, or Damon from Blur (tho I did see his willy once in a bar in LA, cause he had a waz with the door right open...of course I looked. sheesh. He didn't wash his hands either. Ew.) But in NYC, Stuart Murdoch started chatting to me about my SFA patch on my jumper and I went "um...ergh....ak....sputter....och......" Then smoothly added, as i'm SO smooth...... "you're not a bloody HUN are you?" (NO OFFENSE TO YOU RANGERS ON THE LIST...I SUPPORT ABERDEEN SO I *HAVE* TO HATE THE HUNS.)" He started laughing and just looked at me like I was off my trolly....and said "no..not really....I tend to support Celtic..." At least I THINK that's what he said. My head was spinning and I was about to pass out. But who wouldn't with a stuffy nose and a foot in their mouth? fame indeed. beth ----------------------------------------------------------------------- .

Sinister: being young
by Chris Worth 06 Nov '97

06 Nov '97

In response to the person who asked why all the spring chickens were apologising for being young, well, I can't really answer that, except to say that I am definitely not sorry for being 19!! Katrina! I'm sure you said sometime last week that the details of the Manchester gig(s) were going to be released the next day, and that you'd let us all know that day. Maybe I've missed the message and the dates are all sold out by now, at which point I would seriously have to contemplate becoming a monk, devoting myself to a contemplative life... This Sarah records thing is, I'm afraid to say, going straight over my head. Zooom! Oh yeah, I'm a production on our student radio station and today I got the presenters to play 'Le Pastie...'; woah, cool!! I nearly keeled over when I saw 'Dog on Wheels' and '3.. 6.. 9..' in the (not very extensively stocked) CD library in the studio. To whoever was going on about Suede and the Manics: the thing with the Manics, and maybe to a much lesser extent Suede, was that they new and even advertised the fact that there was so much pretense to them. The Manics gave the music scene a much-needed kick up the arse when they exploded onto it, and while B&S haven't exactly exploded onto the scene, they look like giving it a good punch in the face (ie. NME and all that). That's it for now, Later, Chris. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- . This message was brought to you by the Sinister mailing list. .
