Sinister: another newbie
by Larissa Slurpee 27 Oct '98

27 Oct '98

Hello, all! I've heard wonderful things about this list and finally persuaded myself to join. Hope there isn't too much mail, as school (college, music student) takes up much of my time and I don't get nearly as much time on the net as I'd like....(as in, 2-3 hours a day...hehe) I'm Larissa from Vancouver, BC. I'm 18. My very favourite band is Pulp (I'm also on Lipgloss). I heard about B&S over a year ago, but didn't get to hear IYFS until about 2 months ago. It was definately worth the wait! My friend Nick has both albums, and we even got together in the summer to do a somewhat half-assed recording of Fox in the Snow. Already you guys seem like great people! I loved the pome this morning, it set me on the right track after a horrid weekend! ~Larissa http://www.geocities.com/RainForest/2196 +----------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list please mail "sinister(a)majordomo.net".

top shag album in the opinion of someone who has done quite a bit of shagging to different soundtracks - Suede's "Suede" album. definetly. even the cover just SCREAMS sensuality. the tracks "The Drowners" and "Animal Nitrate" are enough to give anyone nocturnal emissions for a whole week.

Sinister: Whew.. WHAT a weekend.
by Taboonmb7＠aol.com 27 Oct '98

27 Oct '98

hello beautiful people. i just returned from Toronto on Sunday night with the hopes of seeing Belle & Sebastian with a few ace people that i planned on meeting there. well, where to begin... i left my home about 10:30, thinking this to be plenty of time to make it to my hotel in Toronto at 2, which is where i was meeting these people. at around 1:40, i thought "damn, i'm making good time." i was just 5 miles away from Toronto, on 401 East just pass Missasauga. and then SPLAT. i got myself into a situation - i rear ended a car who came to a complete grinding halt on the hwy at 120 Kms (about... 75 mph?) .. i was following approximately 20 ft behind, which wasn't enough for my little, black, and quaintly cute Geo Prism, aka the Gnome Hearse (sp.) . i smashed into him at about 40 Kms, enough to smash the front end of my car about 2 ft and for it to be considered "totalled." i had NO idea what to do.. i mean, i'm in this foreign country, i have a perfect driving record, so i've never had experiences with this before, and i had little money. luckily Canadians are seemingly more helpful than Americans, for about 20 of them stopped, offered me access to their phones, cigs, and everything else i needed. a tow truck even came about 5 min after the accident. since i was in shock afterwards, i honestly didn't even care, i was just worried about making it to the hotel by 2 to meet my friends. unfortunatly by the time i made it to the collision shoppe the shock wore right off and i immediately started crying.. i was seriously screwed, i couldn't rent a car with my credit card for i only have a 500 dollar limit and the car would be over 750... luckily a man who felt sympathy for me called a cab, and the cabbie also felt pity so he turned his meter off and only charged me 40 dollars for a ride to my hotel (it would've been in the area of 70 dollars!)... and thus ends "the worst day of my life." . cue in one of the best nights of my life now. Sheila, Cheryl, and Cheryl's friend Megan were all waiting for me like 3 hours after i said i'd be there! such sweet people... Sheila is a glossie (pulp mailing list peep) by the way. She's so ace! thanks for the scarf dear! one of the most uniquely cool people i've ever met. she just radiated with these happy vibes which made me forget all about my poor car. well i'm sick of typing now. we went to a few clubs for drinks, stores, etc.. just spent a "night on the town.". and then we hear about the concert being cancelled, but i was drunk and having much fun so i was indifferent to that at the time. i cannot type anymore since iam quite intoxicated right now so i apologize for any incoherency.. i do not blame the band at all for what happen. there is no one to blame at all - they did what was right. they are a band and should play as one, and if that means that one of the members is ill and they feel that they shouldn't play without her, then i commend them on their group unity! that's wonderful to see that they care enough about each other in such a way. i'm sure they'll reschedual the shows anyways.. which is good because it will give me another excuse to go to Toronto (driving more slower and safer, that is...).. ! it's a beautiful city, such a relief from the neo-industrial wasteland of Flint Michigan. well goodbye i rambled enough..

Sinister: Shag Album
by Pinaplcrsh＠aol.com 27 Oct '98

i've found that i have the best luck with rocketship's album 'a certain smile, a certain sadness'. it's sweet mellow background music and when i catch one of the lyrics about lost love it makes me appreciate who i'm there with even more. my girlfriend swears by dub narcotic featuring lois. we haven't tried it yet though. we usually play 'if you're feeling sinister'. i've made her a belle and sebastian fan through this because she knows what's going to happen when i bring the album over to her house. *alyssa marie* +----------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list please mail "sinister(a)majordomo.net".

Sinister: Summer Wasting tab
by IndiaRubb＠aol.com 27 Oct '98

27 Oct '98

A Summer Wasting I think this song is played with a capo on the 2nd fret, that makes the intro/outro the easiest to play. I'll put the basic chords down, and also an alternate, easier way to play them with the capo on (ie no barre chords). Intro/Outro (relative to capo on 2nd fret) e--------0-2--------3-2--------0-2--------9-7-(0)- <--(0) optional for intro b----3----------3----------3----------3-------(3)- <--(3) optional for outro G--2---2------2---2------2---2------2---2--------- D------------------------------------------------- A------------------------------------------------- E------------------------------------------------- (intro played with this part) Summer in winter Winter in springtime You heard the birds sing Everything will be fine F#m B I spent the summer wasting F#m B A The time was passed so easily F#m B But if the summer's wasted F#m B A How come that I could feel so free F#m B I spent the summer wasting F#m B A The sky was blue beyond compare F#m B A photograph of myself F#m B Is all I have to show for E A Seven weeks of river walkways E D Seven weeks of staying up all night F#m B (interlude) I spent the summer wasting The time was passed so pleasantly Say cheerio to books now The only things I'll read are faces 1 spent the summer wasting Under a canopy of E A Seven weeks of reading papers E A Seven weeks of river walkways E A Seven weeks of feeling guilty E D Seven weeks of staying up all night F#m B (interlude) (intro/outro played with this) Summer in winter Winter is springtime You heard the bird say Everything will be fine Chord fingerings with the capo (all are relative to the capo): EADGbe F#m: 022000 B: x02220 A: 320033 E: x00232 D: x32010 so basically, an F#m is played like Em, B like an A, A like a G, etc. I don't know whether they actually play it like this...anyone notice if Stuart M. used a capo for this at one of the shows?

Sinister: cinerama at the troc
by matthew william snyder 26 Oct '98

26 Oct '98

| > It was their 2nd show _in the USA_. | | Sorry, but The Trocadero was CINERAMA's first gig in the US, and, indeed, | their 2nd gig ever! The first gig took place a few mos. ago: a free | affair at the Camden Falcon. | Their debut gig was supposed to have been at the Phoenix festival, | but, as some already are aware, the festival was cancelled .... | well, some of you may remember that i had pretty harshly criticized the debut cinerama album, and was told to give them a chance at the concert. which i did. and they were better than i expected, but not much. my main complaint was that there were 6 of them on stage, and they sounded like 3. i don't think it was the fault of the sound guy, because i was standing right next to the sound booth and was hearing the mix the same way he was, and i would think that he would have fixed the problem if he could have. they were pleasant enough, but watching david's guitar playing, i noticed that most of the songs have the same chords in different orders, and really simple keyboard parts, so they all come off sounding pretty much the same. the best song was one of the last ones they did, when there was a pretty flute part. it's just that when you have 6 people on stage, the possibilities for song variation are pretty great, and they just didn't grasp that. i guess i am the last philly attendee to post his or her thoughts, and much of what i would have said has already been said. no one mentioned, though, the audience member who shouted "This is pish!" when chris made his announcement. who are you? come on, fess up. the post-show party went fairly well, but the atmosphere felt more funereal than festive. julie's retarded kitten is a neverending source of amusement. thanks for all that showed up and a special thanks to those who brought food. matthew, hoping that the philly show will be rescheduled. +----------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list please mail "sinister(a)majordomo.net".

Sinister: belle & sebastian.

hiya. i'm new to the list. i just wanted to express my disappointment in attending the philadelphia show but i am glad to hear that isobelle is in high spirits again. also, some members of the crowd were *very* cruel to chris though i must say that the drunk guy in the balcony who spelled out words using his arms and body in cheerleader form and later poured a cup of beer and smashed said cup upon his forehead certainly gave us something to talk about while we awaited the news. i'll also be going (or attempting to go to) the washington d.c. gig. is anyone else making the trek from afar? lv, -dannyb +----------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list please mail "sinister(a)majordomo.net".
