Sinister: words i hate=workshop,readyreckoner,timeplan

one shares, the other chooses - you choose on my ceiling is a larger than life drawing of carlos the jackal. it is done in red lipstick, and my friend tom drew it in a moment of boredom. it is the stereotypical picture of carlos, and strangely benevolent looking. anyway, for ages i had my futon under this bit of ceiling, so every morning, and moonlit night i would occasionally look up, often half asleep and see this nightmarish face watching me. ok, this is a description of a photo. it's me in my room, the light's bad and yellowy, i look quite hollow eyed, and appear to be sporting a feather boa. i am holding up a papier mache gilt picture frame, in which are mounted a pair of fake tits(this was a birthday present, unsurprisingly from tom - i had to carry it around school all day). But in the bad light it looks really odd, like i'm in some kind of bondage gear..maybe...enough, methinks of this filth. as to dogs on wheels - when live dogs are on wheels, it is coz they have hip dyspleysia, coz their backs are too long, though i'm not 100% sure, or even 75% sure about this(i'm no rolf harris, you know), but i once saw a thing on telly about alsatians, who are apparently prone to this. it gives them a new lease of life, said the vet, but that's not the kind of wheelied dog i want, so ner. +----------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list please mail "sinister(a)majordomo.net".

Sinister: Tigermilk release
by James Goncalves 04 Nov '98

04 Nov '98

I just picked up a copy of this month's Magnet in which there is a short B&S profile (with the help of Richard Colburn). In the article it's mentioned that Tigermilk will be officially released by Jeepster in January. Perhaps David Kitchen at Jeepster can confirm (or deny) this for us? ______________________________________________________ +----------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list please mail "sinister(a)majordomo.net".

Sinister: Richard Roundtree Report

Chrispoof wrote: >Peter, now that you've finished the duke's book can I possibly borrow >your copy? Are there any pictures of the duke in it in a mess and in a >dress during his pop odyssey? I like it when the duke is in a mess and >in a dress. Sadly, Duke's book has no pictures whatsoever. "What is the point" etc. Of course you can borrow it, Christopher. In fact, I've just had a great idea. I hereby convene the Duke's Book Tree. I send the book to Chris, and three months later Chris sends it to another lucky listee, who in turn sends it to the next fortunate pop fan, and so on! That way, Brad will eventually get to read it too. Duke very kindly signed my copy, so I will sign it too, and then Chris can sign it, and so on and so on. People the world over will be abkle to scratch their heads and think "who the fuck are Eggs?" I thought it was Eels at first. Well, that's my proposal, obviously it'll have to be discussed at the House of Lords first, but I think it's a winner. Send me your address, Chris, and I'll thrust it in your direction. Richard Roundtree - even as I write, the star of "Shaft", "Shaft's Big Score" and "Shaft in Africa" is strutting his funky stuff across the silver screen. In other words, it was sold out. Bugger bastard bugger bastard bugger bastard wank! In order to cheer myself up a bit and keep the blaxploitation faith, I bought "Shorty the Pimp". I'm holding it now. As I listen to the record. It is suitably seedy. I like Stuart M's Babylon Zoo pantaloons. I also like the idea of Elliot from "E.T." being at the New York shows. I'm only sorry he wasn't joined by Elliot from "Pete's Dragon". Warrander John sent me a lovely tape with a lovely cover and a lovely little note written on what appears to be a child's birthday party invitation. It pictures a very attractive young lady dressed in capri pants. I think she's French. I like her a lot. In fact I think I love her. Warrander John kindly put an end to my embarrassing France Gall virginity. She sings in German. Thank you, Warrander John, you're the tops! Football's shit, isn't it? Someone mentioned the DJ at the concerts in New York. It was the dude who does the cover designs for all those lovely B&S records, Andrew Symington. He has a vinyl copy of "They Call Me Mister Tibbs". What I really want to know is, was there a curly-haired little chap by his side? I'm outta here!

Re: Sinister: celeb spotting at the nyc show

awright, janine and our gang were just kidding! though when fran pointed up at the balcony and shouted, 'marilyn!' i did look. that's cos i'm gullible. m.m. *was* at radiohead last year, though... but if we're celebrity-spotting...evan dando was there too. (yeah...i went 'wot?' just like you.) in the balcony. he's chubby now. he was lurking around a pre-gig wee chris and so were we. (you know, i really did want to run up to wee chris and hug him until he shrunk to a size so tiny he'd fit inside my pocket. then i could carry him around with me all the time and bring him out every now and then to prove that something so adorable really exists! but we figured that if i even attempted a hug, he'd be scared and traumatized and fall ill and then b&s would cancel and everyone would blame the tall scary girl for smothering chris.) oh...and there is an ex-fannie in mogwai...it's brendan o'hare, drummer boy. he didn't play with them when mogwai came over here last fall, pity that. oh dear, i've posted twice today.

No, but members of Pavement were in attendance, as was a Mr. Chris Lombardi, Gerard's sidekick at Matador Records. Also, I heard a rumor that one of the former members of Teenage Fanclub (the one who's in Mogwai? Is there a former member of Teenage Fanclub in Mogwai?) was there.

Sinister: for the non-twee among us...a placebo question
by Anastasia Signoretta 04 Nov '98

04 Nov '98

hey, sorry about the lack of belle and sebastian content in this post, but... we heard a rumor that placebo is playing here in new york this thursday, but we don't know where or when. i've been scouring the www for two days now and the only thing i've turned up is some mention of a gig at the knitting factory...but when i phoned the club, i found out this is a lie. does anyone have any correct information? i really do need to know, especially since it is also rumored that gomez is playing with them and i'm currently nursing a *serious* crush on ian ball. silly girl am i. so if anyone knows anything please help. again, apologies for the lack of b&s. i can write gospels about the last four days, but i really don't want to bore you...let's just say i'm still sighing. but how 'bout them silver vinyl trousers?!?! now there's some b&s content for you...phwoar. cheers, stasia anastasia signoretta atlantic records international media relations 1290 avenue of the americas 24th floor new york, ny 10104 212.707.2619 * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * 'do something pretty while you can...' belle et sebastien +----------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list please mail "sinister(a)majordomo.net".

Sinister: Black Sessions for America
by Philippe Garnier 04 Nov '98

04 Nov '98

Hello girls and boys, I think Alexandra is very nice girl : > >Philippe is a lovely lovely man..., but then again, he is French, >and that's enough for me these days! Oh god, i will soon receive some mails asking for photos again... I really need a photographer! Another proof of Alewandra's kindness : >Anyhow, all you CANADIANS, email me privately if you're interested in a >copy. I just want to add that the tape of the black session will also land very soon in Jim Schmidt's mailbox in San Francisco. Of course, all the american listees already know Jim : Jim.Schmidt(a)sfweekly.com Kenneth Starr asked me many times to get a copy, but my computer has got problem with his email (kenneth(a)sex.addict.org) So, if somebody knows mister Starr, tell him it would be fun to try photography or tell him it would be fun to try pornography. Or both.
