Speaking of smiles... i was ear to ear with mine today when i got to take something out of the closet for winter! My fantastic faux fur long fuzzy black hooded parka!!! I felt like having a nice sled ride in the morning but alas, there was no snow! Is it as cold everywhere else as it is here in ontario canada? >hey sammi, are you wearing the white bikini and huskies tonight? This one is a true sinisterine.. well deserving of a listee crush, although she's rather shy, and sweet.

Sinister: is peter miller the little boy from ET?
by mkl206＠is8.nyu.edu 07 Nov '98

07 Nov '98

hihi tonight i'm going to see club 8. they're this neat swedish band. i'll tell you all about it if anyone cares. so yeah, henry thomas is on the list. i figure it's real, cause who would pretend to be henry thomas? i mean, it's kind of a random thing to say if it isn't true. wouldn't they want to be someone that people on the list are more likely to know about? i mean, someone like drew barrymore would work better. she was in et too. though i'll be nice, cause it was a funny email. and really, i mean, what's the point. i've seen too many celebrities with bad hair days to not feel that way. doesn't mean i don't stare, and i'm not bragging cause it honestly is not that exciting. unless it's someone you totally love. i got to see tim burton once and that one was really awesome, i love his work so much. seeing the b&s people was awesome too, cause they're sweet and wonderful. and yeah, their music is ok too. ;) oh, so anyway, the point of the whole thing was, i can't believe he didn't offer to act in my films. poo. any other actors in the new york area, i want YOU to act in my films. normally i use my roommate, but she's developping an intense fear of cameras. and other pepole. the last film was about a star that fell to earth and then gets nursed back to health. laurel from the list was in it. she shone in the lead, as the, um, star nurser. my list crush is a little well publicized, but oh well. you know what? i can't spell worth shit. thought i'd point that out to anyone whose a worse speller tha me and couldn't tell. oh, and send your crush votes for me in kiddos. i figure i may as well campaign. tkhough you know what? i went to the sinister people page the other day and got there no problem. in fact, i just checked and did it again just now. type in: http://www.majordomo.net/sinister/people. i'm there, looking charming. though that's not necessarily the best reason to go. and if you post, send a picture, so we can read your post and think, well, (s)he's stupid, but (s)he's sure a looker. come on, i know that's what you all think about peter miller at least. and by the way, is it ok to make fun of peter miller? i've not spoken to him privately (nice to meet you mr. miller) but it seems like he's the one man that everyone can make fun of, yet walk away free from any sort of guilt. is that because we know so little of his life? he's married (if you can believe that) and lives somewhere in spain. perhaps he can't speak english that well? though he was born in england, but that may be a contributing factor. ;) so perhaps rather than discussing rude things about the band, we should put together a collective biography of peter miller, from the days he wandered the pyrenees with his mountaiin dog searching for his missing mother to his groupie phase to the later years of drugs and sordid sex. or perhaps he will fill in the details himself. xox megan mkl206(a)is8.nyu.edu visit the magnetic fields web page at: http://www.dissemination.com/megan/magneticfields/ +----------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list please mail "sinister(a)majordomo.net".

It all starts with a hand-clap and a smile! Speaking of smiles... i was ear to ear with mine today when i got to take something out of the closet for winter! My fantastic faux fur long fuzzy black hooded parka!!! I felt like having a nice sled ride in the morning but alas, there was no snow! Is it as cold everywhere else as it is here in ontario canada? I hope our show can warm you up tonite and to whomever tunes in... thanks for listening! How sweet! see you all on another belle and sebastian date! oh my that's tonite, isn't it?! luvs hugs and blueberry tea in your belle and seb mugs...with cream! mmmmmm..... xx sammi! ______________________________________________________ +----------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list please mail "sinister(a)majordomo.net".

Sinister: Gene
by Martin Horsfield 07 Nov '98

07 Nov '98

Thanks to all of you who visited Matinee's website on the back of my last post, and for your (mostly) kind comments. Tonight, myself and Matinee guitarist Michael went out to see Gene (checking out the competition in the foppish rock stakes). Support acts wee Lorca (Mark Almond-esque torch songs, a bit too intimate for the echoey old Astoria) and Witness (very boring soft rockers who almost veered into Savage Garden territory, such was their general torpor). Celebs (note: this is relative) present were Sean O'Hagan of the High Llamas, Martin Carr of the Boos and, erm, the keyboard player out of Strangelove. Anyway, with rumours that Polygram have dispensed with the services of both Shed Seven and theaudience this week, pressure must be mounting on Gene. Needless to say, they came out like they had a point to prove, playing - get this - 'Fighting Fit'. The Roz is still rocking his skinhead look and Steve Mason scissor-kicked rather excitingly. Sensibly they adopted for a new song/old song/new song policy, rather than playing a raft of new stuff. Of those new ones, the next single 'As Good As It Gets' has a huge chorus, 'Something In The Water' sports the Morrissey style rockabilly strut and another great new song builds slowly over a typically 80s indie bass sound before crashing into a typically Gene/Queen glam rock ending. On the whole, though, the new stuff didn't break much new ground and rather tellingly, the best songs on the night were the really old ones 'For The Dead' and 'Be My Light Be My Guide'. On these (plus songs like 'We Could Be Kings'), the sense of communion between band and audience was quite awesome. It sounded like a football crowd in there and of course they capitolised on this by putting the house lights onto us, the Roz smiling smugly rather like Tim Booth of James, fully aware of how special his band can be. Reassuring moves from the Gene camp, then. If you can find a place in your heart for The Smiths with bovver boots, then you'll like them. As far as comparisons with our band go, the big difference is that they don't use any backing vocals and that they can sometimes be strangers to subtelty. But watching the shit corporate rock on tonight's TFI Friday (Alanis, The Corrs, The Sterophonics) would make anyone appreciate a real people's band like Gene even more, though.

The only good news is that nobody remembers the real Henry Thomas in France :) Hope noone think I am wicked. I am not wicked, I just am serious. So, sorry for being serious.

Sinister: Chicago
by Julie 06 Nov '98

06 Nov '98

Salutations, Sinisters, List virgin here, pleased to meetcha. Lucky me, I was away from home (San Francisco) and in Chicago when B&S landed there, so I was witness to a wonderful show (except for the bonus peep show, the couple in the balcony who were apparently trying to conceive while clothed). Even my hip-hop-loving brother was moved to proclaiming the band "damn good." So the inevitable question: did anyone here tape the gig? Barring that, any tapes of the East Coast performances? I have a meager collection of live tapes (no B&S) I'd be happy to trade, and other arrangements would be agreeable, too. Reply directly to me, please. :j +----------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list please mail "sinister(a)majordomo.net".

Sinister: shrine to B&S
by erin kathleen devitt 06 Nov '98

06 Nov '98

Hello, I thought that I had finally made my roommate love Belle & Sebastian. It took a while, but finally she was asking to make a copy of some of their songs.:) But I'm not so sure now. Last night she got really drunk. I was trying to get her to sit up and drink some water. Hehe, but she kept falling down. So I propped her pillows up, so she could drink her water. Then she just started busting up laughing. "Hahaha Heheheh.....Belle &Sebastian........ .....Haahahaha.Hahaha its a tower of Belle & Sebastian!!! [the pillows] Hehehehe.....its your shrine to Belle & Sebastian!!!!...hahahah!" What do you guys think, was she just soo happy and giddy to be before a "shrine" of B&S.....or was she just making fun of my love for them? ??? xoxoErin D. +----------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list please mail "sinister(a)majordomo.net".
