Sinister: Merry Christmas Everybody

Despite being an atheist, I love christmas and as a christmas pressie to you all I have put a wav of B&S singing we wish you a merry christmas on beat patrol on sunday onto my website, which is actually all that's on there. You can find it at http://easyweb.easynet.co.uk/~zulu/ Hope you all enjoy the manchester gigs, my mummy wouldn't let me go on my own as I am only 18 years old. Oh yeh, she thinks B&S sound like donovan, any comments? Colin P.S. You are all quite welcome to park in my street whenever you like. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- .

Humbug: bought 'if you're feeling sinister' on friday, went away for the weekend, only to find on my return that one of my housemates had played it, left it by the draining board, and managed to get water over the sleeve. so now it;s all stuck together and i hadn't even read the lyrics. so life's not fair. yours, grumpy ----------------------------------------------------------------------- .

Re: Sinister: Upset about Sessions: WAIT!!

In a message dated 97-12-23 15:35:39 EST, you write: > >The television broadcast of B&S has been cancelled because they didn't play > very well...to say the least. I'm not sure if it was the decision of the > band, PBS, the producers or all three. > Matthew Kaplan< > > Anyone heard anything about this? Do we need to send mass mailings to PBS > insisting they air the session? I mean, it's all I want for Christmas!! > Okay -- I heard that rumor last week from someone, who heard it from a record distributor. I was talking to the aforementioned Matthew Kaplan last Thursday night in NYC and, since we were both at the taping, I repeated it to him, noting that it was just a rumor and that the B&S list had said it would air on the 27th. The next day I got an e-mail from Chris Douridas who hosts the show, which I posted to this list, and it said he "thought" the show would air in February. Then I got an e-mail from someone on the list who said Karen David told him/her that the segment would air in January. Do you suppose they're trying to get everyone to watch every week in order to boost their ratings? And, that will teach me to repeat cheap gossip, especially to lawyers! ----------------------------------------------------------------------- .

Sinister: Beat Patrol tapes
by Honey 24 Dec '97

24 Dec '97

I'm getting LOADS of requests for tapes and I'm stacking them up - I'm going out and I may be some time. When I start sending them out could I ask pretty please for other people to offer to do second generation dubs for others? But it'll be New Year before I get started. Chris meanwhile is I'm sure being asked for lots too. Meanwhile I will have a very limited no. of tapes with me for the Saturday concert and pub before - there's a strict list of people who might be there but if you want one and ask me I may have at least a few going - bring a tape to swap with me with something that I *have* to hear but probably haven't... ANYTHING. By the way I've heard the Spice Girls LP already and the DJ Shadow remixes. Honey ----------------------------------------------------------------------- .

Sinister: sightings and non-sightings
by Seu05 23 Dec '97

23 Dec '97

I just got some bad news for all US listers, according to the appropiate website the sessions TV programme on saturday will NOT have B&S this week. You can check for yourselves (I haven't yet) at http://www.sessionsatwest54th.com This info comes from a friend who was at the taping and will send me a copy when it appears. I'll let Jarrett introduce himself when he appears on the list soon. Meanwhile, back in Blighty, John Peel is doing the biz on the radio. Great stuff, but haven't heard any B&S yet (he's up to number 24 in the festive 31). Anyway, before Peel, Newsbeat ran a feature about Scotland wanting its own pop charts. The idea is that i will give more exposure and prominence to Scottish bands. B&S were namechecked by a punter outside HMV on Argyle Street, and Monica's bit in Lazy Line could be heard as backing music. Graham Kemp from Urusei Yatsura was interviewed for it, and he basically doesn't think it will do much good for anyone. Other web B&S sightings, www.sirendisc.com lists jan 25 as the streetdate for Modern Rock Song. If we do get an accompaning tour, my vote is for Brighton, quite a lovely town, and we've all taken B&S to our hearts. Enjoy Christmas and the weekend, and drinking too much at the meet before hand can sightly impare your enjoyment of B&S at the gig afterwards, as some of us found out in Oxford. Anyone taping the gigs? Tape tree please! Alex ----------------------------------------------------------------------- . This message was brought to you by the Sinister mailing list. .
