Sinister: Pastie on American radio
by Andrew Hung Nguyen 03 Nov '97

03 Nov '97

Yesterday I was listening to the radio and I hear Pastie... on a aka modern rock radio station in LA. It was the first time I heard the song and to be honest I did not recognize the song at first. Does this give some hope that American radio programmers will play more B&S? And I am not talking about college radio. For the Tigermilk search: I get so paranoid that I will miss a copy, I flip through the "S" and "T" section in case the ignorant employee misplaced it.

Sinister: Registers-a-go-go

Tigermilk one: I haven't got one. I know four people who have: One, my flatmate who works in a 2nd hand record shop got his for =A33 and never tires of telling everyone, punctuated with Nelson-off-the-Simpsons style 'haha'. One day I'll kill him (with a knife or a bike chain). Two, a pop celebrity/journalist/record company executive (work it out yourselves, I'm giving nothing away, except that it's not Alan McGhee.) Three, a graphic designer/DJ in a Glasgow nitespot. Four, a girl who works in a Manchester record shop. No names, these people are my friends and I don't want them getting mobbed. Other one I'm 30, I'm not a student, my birthday is March 25th (an Aries). I support Manchester City, my favourite colour is blue, and my favourite food is Tiramisu. Fascinating. Time for Alan Partridge. Goodnight Tag ----------------------------------------------------------------------- . This message was brought to you by the Sinister mailing list. .

Sinister: Greetings!
by faeiry＠dircon.co.uk 03 Nov '97

hello everyone! i'm just writing to say a general hello! i've been on the list for some time but never quite managed to write anything, which, on reflection seems quite hopeless! hmmm... well.. here we go - register about ME! age: 16 years old... occupation: am doing my GCSE's (that can't fail but to sound bad) and erm.... don't posses a copy of tigermilk down here in london, however, i have a friend in oxford, called caroline who does... which is always useful! hmmm... one last thing! why not arrange a B&S meet in London! (incidentally, how many of the people on the list are from London?) should possibly be fun? well.... can only hope with the possibility in mind that perhaps one day soon, i shall meet people who are aware that Belle and Sebastian is not just the name of that well loved cartoon of a boy and his dog, yet that they are a wonderful, downright sound band! well.. i can only dream, and hopefully, not have it shattered! hmmm... not sure what that spiele just was, but anyhow~ nice to be here and to finally have figured out how to work this damned thing! Petra anyone ever heard of a band called Telephone. i'm just wonder what common opinion of this band are.. as with belle and sebastian my contemporaries have never heard of them. i dunno! ----------------------------------------------------------------------- .

Sinister: Tigermilk Register
by Paige Rosella 03 Nov '97

I know that WUNH 91.1 FM, at the University of New Hampshire in Durham, NH rec'd a vinyl copy in November of 96. It changed my life back when I was there. "Expectations" was the first song I played. I don't know if it's individually numbered, and I think it was sent to us by a kindly boy in the UK. If you want specifics, email idf(a)hopper.unh.edu-- that's Ian, and he's the music director. He'll help. Cheers! paige ----------------------------------------------------------------------- . This message was brought to you by the Sinister mailing list. .

Sinister: Thanks Ben - sorry everybody else

Thanks for the tape Ben - I've lost your address which is why I'm writing here - sorry people. Dazza ************ Tick, tick, tick, the machine continued. Time was passing. The audience was wandering, dispersing. Only the tick tick of the gramophone held them together. ************ ----------------------------------------------------------------------- .

RE: Sinister: TIGERMILK REGISTER
by Keith Watson 03 Nov '97

03 Nov '97

I don't have one myself (boo-hoo!) as I buried my head in the sand while Keith Watson told me how good it was!!!. I know Keith has one he had to go through to Glasgow for. I'm sure he'll tell you himself if he gets back on-line. Judging by the jumps the dodgy tape he gave me had, it sounds like his is scratched. [Keith Watson] Yes - indeed, though frankly I just don't have the time to do copies of it really - I spend loads of time doing constant copies for people in Edinburgh, who want their tapes replaced and stuff, Paul, I'll do you another one, it's not a scratched record, it's fine, it'll be my 20 year old tape player having a bad day more than likely. Incidentally, I've been on holiday and ill last week. - who's name is Ritchie Thomson has one in Oakville Terrace, [Keith Watson] This'll be the guy that I know him as, and he knows me as "Belle and Sebastian man". [Keith Watson] Sorry to have missed the Egg night that was my idea! Oops, I was not well I'm afraid, oh well, never mind, next time, how did it go? Cheers, Keith. Oh... Peter, I've done you a tape, I'll get it in the post as soon as possible. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- .

the internet movie database will let you search for birthdates. 16th january is given by: http://us.imdb.com/M/on-this-day?day=16&month=January and turns up kate moss, john carpenter (and about 50 or so others). it'll also show you deaths and marriages and films that opened: the apartment (one of my favourite films) opened (albeit in sweden) on your birthday in 1961. andy sat here, bored, waiting for email... ----------------------------------------------------------------------- .

Coffee-stains, scratches that tell a tale I don't have one myself (boo-hoo!) as I buried my head in the sand while Keith Watson told me how good it was!!!. I know Keith has one he had to go through to Glasgow for. I'm sure he'll tell you himself if he gets back on-line. Judging by the jumps the dodgy tape he gave me had, it sounds like his is scratched. Our drunken regular at The Egg - >a rabid B&S fan - drunkenly accosting Pam and friend with the offer of >a party. Not a bad thing in itself, but given the state he was in, >more like Rab C Nesbitt with expletives whilst strumming 'The State I >am in'.(try to imagine it!)" - who's name is Ritchie Thomson has one in Oakville Terrace, Edinburgh. A close friend of my girlfriend and I has a friend called Ken - who lives near Dean Village, Edinburgh, who has Tigermilk too. Our close friend also buried his head while Ken raved about B&S, despite being a huge Felt fan he didn't like the B&S sound at first - and now it's too late!!!. So Paul, that's another 3 accounted for. Byee, Paul <plaird(a)ndirect.co.uk> "Go to work on an Egg" - THE EGG Marketing Board ----------------------------------------------------------------------- .
