Sinister: BS in Dublin shocker
by Claire Timmins 20 Jan '98

20 Jan '98

No, hold back, it's not news that the band are playing three matinee gigs in Dublin castle. Unfortunately... I was just in HMW trying to beg for a part-time job. I'm fed up of working in bars. And I wandered about looking for something to grab my attention when all I could see was IYFS on the listening booth style thing. Wow a free listen, not like I have to pay to listen to the album anyway. Gosh Dublin is finally catching on. And they are selling it for the bargin price of IRpounds 15.49 !!! This is in the store who three months ago had never even heard of them. Shit I need to go to work.. Bye, Claire. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- .

Miss Orton, her voice and 500 believers. oh. I was there too. While my friends watched Weller and my girlfriend, the seahorses, I stood in the front row, directly in front of her, in a daze. Beautiful stuff indeed. It was the highlight of the weekend. Just a shame they wouldn't let her play an encore. John. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- .

... Tag was wondering... >And perhaps someone could explain why I kept seeing the word >'Skrotum' at Swedish railway stations. You must have had those filth-tinted muso-shades on again....it's apparently written skotrum...a facility for decrusting & nappy(diaper) changing a baby, it turns out. Honey(what's that about anyway)Paul carries on the infant theme... >It's all very serious and freudian but I can't explain why erm... >just now. Please send me your baby pictures - Don't you get a night in the cells for solicitations of that kind? Inspector paedo-knacker (of the web) is always GREPing for traffic like that on the electronic ether. They can take your list-award away as well, y'know. Can I send some childishly-drawn pics instead? -Rod xx ----------------------------------------------------------------------- . This message was brought to you by the Sinister mailing list. .

Sinister: Air, the devil, Pastels
by Julia Mary Brown 20 Jan '98

20 Jan '98

Lots of people have been going on about Air, and the singles they have had out. I got a 12" (also available on CD, I think) called Premiers Symptoms, and it has 5 tracks on it. I got it in John Smiths, Glasgow where Stephen Pastel works, and it had a sticker on the front that he wrote, to the effect that it was the first 5 releases from Air collected together, with 'no lame remixes'. If you want to investigate more than the album- which I'm going to buy today- then it's excellent. And on a French electronic pop connection, does anyone else like Kid Loco? He's quite similar to Air, and absolutely lovely. Oh, and I have photographic evidence that Steven Welles is in fact the devil. A truely nasty piece of work. Sorry to go off B%S topic, or rather remain off it, but does anyone have the address for the Pastels website. The one I scribbled from somewhere doesn't work, and searces just get me stuff about painting and decorationg. Juilaxx ----------------------------------------------------------------------- .

Miss Orton, her voice and 500 believers. oh. I must stop feeling so old and get along to these things...trouble is, being in Devon and without transport you are somewhat cut off from the "real" world. She has a truly wonderful voice. When I bought the "Touch me with Your Love" cd and listened for the first time, I just couldn't believe the version of "Galaxy of Emptiness" was recorded live (until the crownd cheer at the end,obviously). > > lovely > Lovely Indeed. -- Adrian.

Re: Sinister: no b&s-- go betweens

>> Furthermore, you may be very lucky in finding >> any of the following at >> reasonable prices ... "Lee Remick" 7", "People >> say" 7", "I need two heads" >> 7", >you'll be lucky... if you find these and don;t >have to fork out loads of cash i'll be surprised. I got my copy of "I need two heads" in a crap junk shop stall in Peckham covered market about five years ago. Cost: nicht because my mum was buying some shelves or something and the owner clearly didn't know his Postcard from his Telstar. So I was *very* *very* lucky. It doesn't often happen. "I need two heads" worries me a little because I can't deny that it sounds remarkably like early Cure. And anyway, why does Robert Forster need two heads - the one he's got is really very good in itself. What a greedy man. I'm glad to hear that Tag is striving for the RF look. I am half-trying myself. The hair's getting there (or is it just turning into a mullet - gulp?! Thought: was this the inspiration for Billy the Fish?) but the jawline's got a long way to go. Which brings me nicely (bald lies are the best) onto my B&S content. It's come to my attention that certain wonderful tracks like "The Boy Done Wrong Again" and "Belle And Sebastian" are hovering criminally near to the lowest depths of the voing chart. Also, cute as it is, "She's Losing It" should not be beating "The State I Am In" in the top slot. And I feel sorry for "Electronic Renaissance". If you share my sense of injustice, tactical vote vote vote your way to http://www.totalweb.co.uk/bluesoda/cgi-bin/vote.cgi and make recompense. The link from the top page didn't seem to work last time I tried it. Nick nick_dastoor.bsho(a)notes.compuserve.com ----------------------------------------------------------------------- .
