Sinister: Smarter than teachers
by jimmy bryant 07 Nov '98

07 Nov '98

Lord Anthony was the highlight of the Athens Ga show and I have been listening to the tape of it over and over again. There are still several phrases which I cannot understand what Stuart is singing. If you know the complete lyrics to this new song I would appreciate it muchly if you could post them to this list or at least give me an URL where I can find them. Thank you. jimmy thin_king it doesn't pay to be smarter than teachers +----------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list please mail "sinister(a)majordomo.net".

Sinister: were d.c., boston, or chicago recorded?
by 3 07 Nov '98

07 Nov '98

Based on jimmy bryant's mention of having a tape of Athens, and the generous offer of the two NYC shows for heartwrecked Toronto/Philadelphia jiltees by the kind lister ridley13, it seems half of the shows were documented in some way. Did anyone happen to record in Boston, Chicago, or D.C.? Please speak up....... +----------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list please mail "sinister(a)majordomo.net".

Sinister: love songs to isobel.....(DELUXE schoolgirl blushes included)
by rebelstrange＠ldd.net 07 Nov '98

07 Nov '98

well first of all, i'm embarrassed. i dont' remember exactly what i may have said, i dont' think i made too big a fool of myself. but i dont' want to be caught speculating about the sexual orientations of people i don't even know....so if i said anythign dumb, i was joking. as i often am. it's ok, we often wonder......a lack of actual personal experience can just make you gossipy and fantasizing about stupid things.....as i'm sure many of us know. (oops!) thanks paul....i think....anyway it's nice to be noticed. GAWD i think i would be so embarrassed if the band read this stuff...i can't help it. i'm 21 going on 12 years of age. and keep getting more immature by the minute. apologies to lovely Isobel for my ridiculous gushing......(gushing, oozing, other disgusting things..) and everyone hold your noses and keep the peppermint candies handy (always worked for me anyway..) cos there's more sickness coming. Does anyone know how to change Outlook xpress so your name comes up different in emails? i hate how it says "Lesley J. Miller" that's so dorky. so anyone who wants to address me can do so as lesley Jo, or whatever. at lleast, my fantasy is to legally eradicate my last name. so there. i think it's nifty we have celebrities on there, like messr. thomas (wave) and the chick from Scaredy Cat stalker....and Brian jOnes!! woo-hoo! i know i'm new here but this is the most email fun i have ever had, you all are a bunch of clever sods, for sure.....entertaining conversation always. B&S merit such wit, i would assume.... and now.........(cheesy drum roll)....... MY ULTRA-POP , ISOBEL-INSPIRED SOPPY BALLAD!!! (lyrics only, at least thus far) ....but it was inspired by dear isobel along with many other life wrenching factors... I got a rainy day friend and she doesnt' understand I want to be tied down, dont' have the strength to run around I never saw anyone else Until i saw wee Isobel MOre empty than i've been all year and the birds just fly away from you around here... and no one smiles like Photo Jenny round here... I'd rather be in hell than never speak to my Isobel But i blew it and I'm already there.... As she walks away You know it's the last time I'm getting on an airplane and i can't even say Goodbye I had a star, but she's left me here to die and now the world is so big, there's no place to hide So i'm looking for some things to sell I'll run away to find my Isobel I'd rather live in hell than lose my chance with Isobel Even if it kills me, at least i won't be here... If i end up in hell, send a postcard to sweet Isobel And tell her i know it's hard to notice anything from behind a cello ******************************** o'c you all know what poetic license is....so you can safely assume i willnot actually run away and stalk anyone. for one thing, i'm much too poor and too much of a scaredy-cat. (I'd get my heart broken anyway, i think she goes for the boys if i'm not mistaken..;) comments, suggestions, song requests, bags full of vomit, hate mail, etc. can all be sent to me... lesley Jo +----------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list please mail "sinister(a)majordomo.net".

Sinister: (no subject)

hello, your probably all used to the "im new to the list blah blah blah" notes but heres another one for you :) im ashamed to admit i havent even heard anything by belle & sebastian until about 3 weeks ago..when damon told me to buy If You're Feeling Sinister. (and we all know damon is always right...:) but anyways i got The Boy With the Arab Strap first and it sat on my dresser all alone gathering dust for about a week...then one day i put it in and i fell in love with it immediately..the one song that really got me was 'Is It Wicked Not To Care?' i could definitely relate to that one..but the whole cd was just brilliant. and last week i got If You're Feeling Sinister and i was not diappointed at all....so far my favorite song on it is 'Get Me Away From Here I'm Dying'....but of course they're all so good... ok am i boring you yet? :) i usually don't speak up too much on these kind of lists...but from just reading all the mail from this first week you all seem to be very lovely :) (and hopefully accepting of a new B&S fan who doesnt know too much) so hmm i think thats all i have to say... oh yeah, i live in Mentor, Ohio (and ::ahem:: no i'm NOT amish :) -amanda +----------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list please mail "sinister(a)majordomo.net".

Sinister: This is kind of late
by MileEndGrl＠aol.com 07 Nov '98

07 Nov '98

Okay, I am kicking myself at this point because I had a chance to go the 2nd supper club show as well, but I left....why do you ask? SO I COULD HANG OUT WITH MY CRUSH LATER!!! I think Stuart threw me off the first night saying "It is going to be the same." Errr, I can't believe I did that. The next day I woke up thinking 'Am I the stupidest girl on earth?" Anyhoo.... So Henry Thomas WAS at the show. I saw him and my friend didn't believe me. Haha, I am always right about these things. Oh, umm could some of you help me out....I went and met up with a few of you at Bryant Park, I was the young red head who felt extremely out of place. Could you people please make yourself known to me. Sorry I left, my friend didn't want to stay and dragged me away. Someone also mentioned about people wanting to act cool. I noticed that too. This guy actually told me to stop dancing to dirty dream # 2. Sorry I get into my favorite band. And I also heard someone talking about people not clapping during Arab Strap, how could you not?! Did anyone else find the supper club extremely strict? I have been there 3 times and never had a problem with anything. Those CIA guys were scary, one guy even took my shoe (i took them off cause my feet hurt so much) cause he thought I was recording stuff. Hmph! Well I am going to go. Woo I get to see Bis tomorrow, not the biggest a fan, but I know so many people going why not? Bye everyone!

Sinister: wooop ta lai
by Genevieve Wesley 07 Nov '98

07 Nov '98

I can write LONG too...a mix of all sorts,and ramblings,oh yes Oh! O! O! O! Those reviews of Belle And Sebastian were so good...all these shy little encounters,and blossoming romance...and 'the music was so good i thought my heart might burst!' i'm so envious...really..i shouldn't be jealous but can you blame me? And why is Stuart so damn nice to the fans....it makes it that much harder.. no-one feel bad for embarassing first impressions..conversations..I am so stupid with those it makes me cringe...i try to act very mature and knowning at the beginning,but then,i don't know what happens,but the coolness just melts! and it always goes like this:(I hide and watch them soundchecking behind stairs,or sit where they can easily trip over me) 'Hi!...Can I hug you?' and then I kiss 'em...(yes,i go for the gold) it's embarrasing and they probably think i'm crazy,but in someways i think maybe it's not so bad...when will i ever have the oppturtunity to again? i remember when i saw neil codling sitting on the counter of a&w..i tried to be all 'your fame doesn't faze me' and i jumped up next to him,punched him in the shoulder and in the process spilled his drink.. evan dando was at b&s!?! eeeew! when i was a wee child,he used to be in my SEVENTEEN magazines,and he had really long hair and SEVENTEEN was always like 'Oh what we wouldn't give to run our fingers through his hair?' and I always thought i was a lesbian because i wasn't attracted to him...and now where is he,stupid bloated potatoe thinks he's so cool....next Kate Moss will be showing up at Belle and Sebastian shows... Megan,I miss you too....the creek is getting lonely,the mud is starting to freeze with the flurries of snow warning it of winter... i can't go into the chat thing,i don't know what's wrong...it's keeps saying 'cannot resolve...' i love the little lovebirds elisa and sparkly orange..elisa i am glad you got my letter,apologies if it is a little angsty! i am not an angsty person! i've decided when i get my driver's license,i am hot-wiring a car and going to toronto and will go dancing with elisa and jj....(just for the record,PHILIPPPPPPPPPPPE sorry,i like to emphasize the 'P's' Oh did you know I used to be in love with a french Philippe? Philippe Candelero the figure skater! Ahhhh yes,when he used to do that Rocky rountine and rip off his shirt...le sexy anyways,yes Philippe..in France-French,do people say in 'WOOOP TA LAI!' or 'SLING SLING!' because here in Quebec-French,my driving instructor (who looks like trainspotting begbie) always does little hand puppets of cars smashing into each other and he shouts WOOP TA LAI!!!! for effect) stuart and silver pants? he must be sorry he cancelled toronto NOW just think how well he could've made out in Le Chateau. what is this? you sinister people only base your crushes on the photos? i fall in love with a couple of you just from the way you write....we can't ALL be oil paintings!(..actually,instead of a real-person picture,i fell in love with this boy in a paintings for a glasgow art fair,he has that look that i imagine a scottish boy combines with an innocent fumbling to look like) and ahhh why how belle and sebastian make love-in's and boyfriends and girlfriends sound so sweet...it's all running fast over the quiet streets and watch boys with with floppy hair feverishly smoking cigarettes when in reality it's pervy highschool boys and dirty concrete floors and stale beer and 'make me a sammich bitch'.......bahhh i want a sebastian! (and even when you are presented with the perfectly lush atmosphere....fields and fields and dark out,who's your sebastian? a grubby stalker in a pick-up! 'Hyuk hyuk wanna go to the racetrack?') i ain't no fortunate one ("it ain't me! it ain't me!") love, your genevieve 'first you lure them down from heaven with promises of goodness and weeping' ______________________________________________________ +----------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list please mail "sinister(a)majordomo.net".

Sinister: c'mon get happy
by Tara Widmer 07 Nov '98

07 Nov '98

<<i think the henry thomas movie "cloak and dagger" isn't was pretty decent.>> When i think 'Henry Thomas' i think "valmont"....phhwoar, an appearance easily worthy of the Sassy "cute boy alert" that subsequently transpired!;-) but this must stop somewhere. It's at the point where my count of list crushes has climbed into double-digits, embarrassingly enough. This could either be a reflection of how many gorgeous hunnybunnies there are here on the list, or what a sappy romantic saddo I am (prolly both)... either way, I'm going to try and resist the allure of henry's charms for now. But to all you bashers, don't you think it's nice to see a former child actor done good, instead of out there busting up video stores and dealing crack to transvestite whores?? Which is the only other option for former child stars, obviously. if only the cast of "diff'rent strokes" or "partridge family" had B&S concerts, it would have surely turned out better. Incidentally, a David Cassidy "behind the music" recently aired on Vh-1, so anyone with any questions about him, Teddy Pendergrass, John Denver or Andy gibb, you know who to ask... And as far as these list crushes, it's not supposed to be all about appearances is it? I thought it was more like, you go to read their e-mails first cos you always know they'll say something that makes you laugh, sigh, cry, or perhaps even feel a bit naughty... erm, or so I hear. You know, someone who has written something that makes you say, "right on, Amen! oh gosh we're so much alike - Meunster cheese? Me too!!" But if it's all about appearances, let it be known that I'm a doppelganger for elizabeth hurley.
