well, well, well, what do we have here: npr, salt and vinegar chips and people bragging about be the size of thier pee-pee's. sounds like my cup of tea(well except for bragging about my pee-pee of course). i can clear the salt and vinegar thing up real quick: bad gas! which brings me to npr. in my long lost days as a pizza boy, i will go ahead and let you know that npr can be your salvation on a sunday night. just try you'll see. and sure they may be old but dammit, they're funny(in a wierd kinda grandma-smells-good way). and if anyone has anything bad to say about Keilor(sp?)well you can just.........go ahead and say it i guess because i'm not that good of a fighter, but dammit if i can't get my goove on when the lights go out. the point? robbie in my c.d. player: larry hagman: "the man, the myth" ______________________________________________________ +----------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list please mail "sinister(a)majordomo.net".

Sinister: your life to live
by aaron tieger 20 Nov '98

20 Nov '98

Is anyone else on the list into the Secret Stars? They're a local (Boston) band I've just rediscovered. Their first album, which is self-titled, is available on Shrimper (from CA) and I think a lot of B&S fans would probably like it. A guy and a a girl and very very quiet, sad, wintry songs. Good snow day music. Check it out. aaron === atieger(a)rocketmail.com auger/anvil I go, you stay-- two autumns. _____________________________________________________________________ Sent by RocketMail, free e-mail for the planet. * Visit & explore Cybersmith at http://www.cybersmith.com * Get your web-based e-mail at http://www.rocketmail.com +----------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list please mail "sinister(a)majordomo.net".

Sinister: I'm NEVER lucid!
by Reid Dossinger 20 Nov '98

20 Nov '98

Now, look...I've been more than patient with you people. I've sat around, twiddling my thumbs, whistling a happy tune, waiting for you folks with copies of the Black Sessions to line up, hoping to be the lucky, lucky person who gets to make me a copy. Well, I've given you long enough and I can only assume that it's low self-confidence that's making you think, "Oh, he would want someone much more important than *me* to make that tape for him." It's not true. I want YOU to make me that tape. That's right, YOU. What do I have to offer in return? Aside from an autographed 8x10 glossy, I might have a few things that some of you might be interested in...does the phrase "Reid-length" mean anything to anyone besides Carl? Yow! For those of you who think the above paragraph is obnoxious, here's an alternate: I would appreciate it if anyone could tape the infamous Black Sessions for me. I could look through the old "true" vinyl and those CD's that are destined to be dust and see if there's anything that'd strike your fancy for a trade, and/or I could throw a list-crush vote your way next time around. It wouldn't be fake: you really would be my list crush. Have I sounded pathetic enough yet? Please let me know if I could be more pathetic. I'm sorry if I'm not pathetic enough. You're really too kind for reading this... I've decided to trust Jeepster with my pre-order of the new EP. I guess I just like the image of Katrina and David, clothes torn and hair disheveled, with grateful tears just beginning to stream out of their eyes and my ten bucks (converted) in their hands. "Thank you so much, Reid! You've made this the best holiday ever!" Then I remember reality: the two of them sunning themselves on an Australian beach while I pass the hours at my miserable job (that not coincidentally has *nothing* to do with Belle and Sebastian) staring for the millionth time at the "Lighthouses of North Carolina" poster that's supposed to brighten up (ha!) my workspace. And then I imagine myself buying the EP from a bootlegger. Just kidding...I really will be buying it from Jeepster, and I'm proud of it. "Directly from the source!" I always say. Actually, that was the first time I said it, but I plan on saying it more often. By the way, I asked Mr. Kitchen (I'm trying to show more respect) how long he guessed it would take for said EP to get to the US, and he said between a couple days and a couple weeks, which is good enough for me. Those of you who live in cities that have good import-ordering places can now feel smug. By the way, a quick hello to my friend Susan who joined the list. Everybody: "HELLO, SUSAN!" That makes three good friends of mine on the list. My plans for list domination are all coming together very nicely. The coup's planned for Tuesday. Act surprised. Speaking of plans, here's a plan for everyone to become more understanding of each other: Digesters become regular listees and vice versa. That way, regulars can see how annoying it is when that HTML code pops up at the end and when the original message is quoted in a reply. And digesters can see how annoying it is when insigficant, one-sentence wisecracks clog up your mailbox. See? It's a foolproof plan for peace and harmony. It'll start with the list and spread to the rest of the world. Probably. Yes, you're right: this *is* a long post. Just my little revenge for having to scroll like a madman through my digests for the last couple of days. Wait, that doesn't make any sense...Anyway, I was going to tell a nice little story about my sweetie asking me to tell her a bedtime story, which is really mean, because I'm a rotten story-teller, but Stuart M. is a great story-teller, and so I just recited the lyrics to Modern Rock Song and and I got all teary just *saying* "Now I count three, four and we start to slow because a song has got to stop somewhere," and then said sweetie said she really enjoyed my little "story" (I gave Stuart credit) and so now everytime she asks for a bedtime story, I'm just going to quote B&S songs, remembering to leave out "Seeing Other People". I *was* going to tell you that story, but I'm not going to anymore, 'cause this is already too long. One more thing: Everyone best stop the cracks on NPR, or else I'll come after you with that big metal glove of death that was on last Tuesday's episode of Buffy the Vampire Slayer. Don't make me bring this subject up again. I'll just leave you wide-eyed, watching the door with the covers pulled up to your nose. Hey, how come this post is really long, is pretty off-topic, doesn't contain a complaint about too-few list crush votes and doesn't even quote any other posts? Man, I'm the worst list-member ever! Honey, can you kick me off? I'm gonna start a flame war with myself. On the list. Reid-length, Reid +----------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list please mail "sinister(a)majordomo.net".

Sinister: not b&s but he is from glasgow
by keith m 20 Nov '98

20 Nov '98

in the review of the acid house soundtrack on nme belle and sebastian is not even mentioned. hello i was wondering is anyone here a fan of long fin killie and if you are has anyone read luke sutherland's book and if you have could you tell me if it is worth ordering on import? he is one of my heroes, he is so articulate and fantastically exciting(my friend andrew and i cornered him the first time we saw LFK for a half-hour and he wore us out) and well i think i probably will end up ordering the book anyhow especially since maybe it will be released here since it has been nominated for a whitbread award(are these prestigious?). i am really looking forward to his new music project bows(stuart from mogwai, among others, played on it). thanks keith mcl also might anyone know when the new pearlfishers record might see the light of day? or that record duglas bmx bandit and one of the pearlfishers is putting together of cover versions of brian, carl and dennis wilson songs? too shy to add anything interesting to the list and also of the opinion that desserter's songs is only the third best mercury rev record behind 'see you...' and of course 'yerself is steam'. +----------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list please mail "sinister(a)majordomo.net".

Sinister: Bus Stop Chat

Hiya everyone. I just stumbled on the fabulous BusStop website at <A HREF="http://parachat.webpage.com:8824/pchat/parade/adnet?cmd=redir&url=htt p%3A%2F%2Fhome.miningco.com%2Fads%2Fad6%2Findex.htm%3FPto%3Dhome.miningco.com% 2F&ses=&seq=2&aid=mixlow%3Aad5487&prv=mixlow">buschat.htm at www.catharton.com </A> Im assuming that this site is no longer run.?? and that the fanzine does not exist ?? How cool is it, that there is a BUSSTOP chat room !! I invited a friend into the room and we had a fabulous chat, with subjects ranging from our local service, to the introduction of more and more single decker buses with pram space. Everyone must also have a story about somebody puking up at the back of a bus on a Saturday evening at 11pm. We reministed alot, and had a fabulous time. Just thought i would share that with you. :o)) Take it easy Jamie +----------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list please mail "sinister(a)majordomo.net".
