08 Nov '98

you all must be getting pretty sick by now of my HTML slop. i thought i had fixed it, then i went back today and Plain Text was not checked anymore. so i HOPE it is fixed now. I hate computers. I had a dream about Stuart's pants. they turned up in my laundry. they were silky black running pants (like track and field) with white stripes up the sides. they were size large, but still pretty small, and i was excited about wearing them. I"m not sure how they turned up in my laundry. In other news, this was written a while back and I request to know what it means......... .Date: Fri, 6 Nov 1998 11:00:39 -0000 From: Adrian Evans <AEvans(a)devon-cc.gov.uk> Subject: Sinister: Parrotesque rebelstrange(a)ldd.net (Lesley J. Miller) Peter, is this your list love child? *********some sort of backhanded insult for the uninitiated, haha?? (paranoia is merely a heightened state of awareness) Or a compliment, if you please??? (keep dreaming!) I may shortly send in my picture for the sinister people page, if i can get up the courage. since i do plan to be around for quite a while, and i can't stand to not be involved in something that is going on. <jumps up and down frantically, trying to see over that little picket fence, squeaking "mommy, mommy, I wanna play with the big kids too!!!"> so will it be the public restroom photo, or the standing-outside-the-blackcat-under-the-b/s-poster, or the I*heart*isobel necklace photo? I may also have a picture of me in a purple slip wearing a big rubber tiger mask, but i will have to re-check my photo archives. i'm not sure if that one is appropriate for the kiddies.....teehee There seem to be a lot of Magnetic Fields fans in here, so a Positive Boo to you all! Along with Stuart m, i have a non sexual crush on Stephin and Claudia both, cos they're just so damn cool. okay <end off-topic bit.> <startdailyisobeldrooling> Isobel's voice is so Sexy to begin with, that i dont' know if my feeble senses can withstand it filtered through the French tongue. I think i shall implode from the sheer force of it. Would there happen to be a segment who are interested in pulling for Isobel to release her own songs? cos if so, I'm gladly looking to join in the effort. I'm good at groveling and sucking up, too. i'd be an asset to the cause......(or a hindrance, i'm not sure which) GO ISOBEL!! RAH RAH RAH!! YOU RULE!!! <enddailyisobeldrooling> if this message comes up in HTML crap, i will eat my own hat.. You all can hold me to that and put me in the public stocks, if you wish. lesley jo +----------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list please mail "sinister(a)majordomo.net".

Sinister: Ack! Debt collectors off the starboard bow, Kiptin!
by Elizabeth Daplyn 08 Nov '98

08 Nov '98

Hello possums! Someone very official and important should make it illegal for Virgin to hold a 3for£22 sale with lots of nice things in it just when I happen to be innocently slavering over CDs and have no money. Well, not enough to wantonly and without due consideration add to Richard Branson's Smashing New Balloon Fund or whatever. Ah well, at least I am now the owner of "Unknown Pleasures" by our favourite suicidals, Joy Division, "She Hangs Brightly" by Mazzy Star, and "Lust For Life" by Iggy Pop. Eclectic, no? Well bloody sod yer then. And I have asked all my lovely *colleagues* here at the old coll to restrain me if I show signs of going into the vicinity of any record shops for the forseeable future. I agree with whoever said Kenickie were underrated. They were damn fine popkids (and still are, bless 'em, just not available to the wider public any more) and produced many a thought-provoking yet hy-sterical lyric, married to a nice crunchy guitar sound and weird watermelons a-plenty. So mourn their passing, put black crepe bows round the white necks of the public doves, that sort of thing. Egad! What's all this stuff about surreptitious celebrities in our midst? Even if they're fake celebrities, it's a worrying trend. After all, who are we but humble piemakers who know nothing of the wider world? La, sorr, they fancy folks shouldn't stoop to show they'm faces at the door of our luxuriously appointed hovel. Ho hum, at least we can expect the standard of smut to go up. The people demand more cocaine-soaked sweaty Hollywood goings-on! No really, fair play to all those who have their names in the small print on album covers and in cast lists. Come, children, and snuggle into the universal embrace of Mr P.Mitchell. All together now: "Her name was Honey, she was a showgirl..." Can we have a roundup of all those who have found the love of their lives (or at least got a shag) out of the Sinister goings-on? Anyone who likes can mail me and tell me about their experiences. Ah, for I am one of you myself, and counting the slow heartbeats until December and my sweet ickle cherub (sorry, darling!) hops over the Atlantic in one mighty bound... Oh, anyone who wants to heap praise on/slag off my treetape (which has my email address from my old college on it) should not write to edaplynr3n00297(a)kiadroch.kiad.ac.uk, but instead to this much more idiot-friendly address: elizabeth.daplyn(a)st-hildas.ox.ac.uk. Simple, eh? The world is in a sorry state. At this minute, there are many sad girlies sitting in the dark downstairs watching Titanic, obsessive love for the sprout-faced Leonardo di Caprio written all over their shiny faces. But fear not! in this gorgeous list we have a safe haven from much of the crapness of the popular media. All hail! *positive list propaganda over* Gosh, what a long post! I feel quite lightheaded... lalala-lala Liz:x +----------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list please mail "sinister(a)majordomo.net".

None

Yesterday I went to the Barcelona?s record collector fair and it was impossible to find any rare material from B&S. I even asked in an english stand and the girl who answered me didn?t even knew anything about them. That?s the business world. I know that Isobel didn?t changed her colour of hair, but if it was true, how many would you pay for having some pieces of it ? I?m saying this because today they had put in auction some pieces of Elvis?s hair. Jordi. (I say Isobel?s hair as I can say the silver pants of Stuart or anything else about the band.) +----------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list please mail "sinister(a)majordomo.net".

Lastly i liked the image that one splinter of glass (from an evil mirror mind you) can set in someone's eye and make them see entirely different things (i have a slight fear of sharp objects and eyes). come to think of it, the snow queen had my jacket! while were on the subject or huskys...do they make galoshes or huskys (which i have never heard of) in adult sizes?..where could i go about finding them?..i guess there isn't a market here..since i live in houston, texas! > >>yes i have this white parka with a fauz fur collar that i think was >originally my sisters...it screams bjork/ micheal hutchence when i wear it....i like to go my local mcdonalds in it. >--+****might i ask what you order? okay..i know you *really* didn't want to know...but i order whatever burger is on sale..i think it's double cheeseburger..i order that sale burger and order it plain with cheese..since i haven't eaten condiments since i was a child and dont intend to start now..then i bum( i mean share) fries and the drink from whoever took me to mcdonalds... hey i know we discussed this..but the picture in the sinister gallery..StLucy...isn't actually a sinisterine correct?...nevertheless, it's charming picture..a yes or no will suffice and cheers to the sinister who found the link to the surrealist compliment generator..i was just on it yesterday..FLYS DANCE OPERAS TO YOUR WISDOM!

Sinister: The black session story
by Philippe Garnier 08 Nov '98

08 Nov '98

Martin asked: >3) The Black Sessions. What is this item? I'm in the process of writing >a cheque out for the good folk of Honduras and I still don't know what >this mysterious item our generous German friend is offering to send. The german friend is called Stephan, and I thank him very much for distributing the tape for free and asking people to donate some money for poor children. I met Stephan at the Belle&Sebastian show in Strasbourg, and I can say that he is a very kind boy. Danke schon Stephan! I appreciate when listees distribute/exchange the radio sessions or Tigermilk for free. Keep your money and give it to people who need it. The Black Session is a radio session Belle&Sebastian made on october 5th in a show on the french national radio (France Inter). They played for 50minutes (more than 10 songs). To my knowledge, it is the longest radio session the band has ever made, and it is *really* great!

Oh Yes This is true with me, My friends Say they "Like" my bands but they really dont or dont have any of their albums. My best friend ryan Says he loves Oasis(Their my fav. band) but really the only song he knows are "Wonderwall" and his fav. song is "Champagne Supernova" just cos they talk about getting high(Though I think its really a love song) and He likes Liam and Noel just cos they fight and swear and sniff cocaine. Tony on the other likes Radiohead and has their 2 albums but hates Pablo honey so shame on his part but on monday Im giving him the Masterplan and hopefully that will save his life,If not My Everyone In This Town Is A tosser(Yes I wrote this song and once im in a band its gonna be huge) World Wide Tour will begin and with all the money I get Start the "BUY EVERYONE IN THE WORLD A GREAT BRITPOP CD" charity and save the world from Bad Music(i.e. NSYNC,BACKSTREET BOYS,COOLIO) -Damon +----------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list please mail "sinister(a)majordomo.net".

Sinister: List Crush and Celebs
by Marty St. George 08 Nov '98

08 Nov '98

I am a long-time lurker, and currently addicted to B&S. (Admitting it is the first step to the cure, but, unfortunately, I don't want to be cured...) Several months ago, my best friend told me to drop everything and order TBWTAS. His taste is impeccable, since he turned me on to The The in 1981, and Stephon Merritt in 1997, so I generally listen to him. (I actually ordered TBWTAS and Future Bible Heroes at the same time...but still haven't gotten poor Stephon onto the CD player yet...that's how addicted I am to B&S.) I am waiting for some other titles to come into stock at my local internet site, so I can expand my knowledge... However, the quasi-hint within the announcement of celebs on the list has forced me to announce my list crush...Chloe Sevigny, if you're out there, I am claiming you first, before the Johnny (or Janie)-come-latelies grab you from me!!! (!) (I'm too polite to let this post degenerate into smut, so please don't ask me...) Marty PS To the person who told me to turn off HTML mail...thanks in advance. If I hadn't read that message, then this posting would have really pissed you off... +----------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list please mail "sinister(a)majordomo.net".

Sinister: Brighton..Sand, sea and ......Sinisters !!
by Niceaction＠aol.com 08 Nov '98

08 Nov '98

Afternon people :o) Has it been decided yet if Brighton will be the place for the Southern Sinisterees to get together over xmas ?? If it is going to be here, i have a whole load of spare time to help organize the bash. I was thinking we could all enter the Bird Man competition and jump off the end of the Palace Pier into the sea, then, feeling refreshed we could have our own sinister carnival parade down Western Road, preaching the music of B&S to the massives, then we could all go back to my house, where my mum will cook you all up a big sheppards pie, with rice pudding for afters but only for the people that finished all there dinner. Then we could go somewhere in the evening and boogie the night away!! Well, if this doesnt take your fancy i'm sure we could arrange something else.
