Well, that's quite enough cosmetics references in one mail methinks...

dear sinister birds and bees, i've been so enjoying all your posts about the b&s shows you've been to in the past few weeks.. of course i'm a bit envious, but hey - deb, i'll chip in for gas when you drive to the west coast for that series. and using the refund money from my ticket, i did see miss polly jean harvey and the rachels (oooh, it was *so* good) so it wasn't a total loss. i do wish henry thomas had been in toronto though. hey! i got my belle and sebastian teeee-shirt in the mail the other day! ooh, how excited was i? of course i immediately wore it school, trying to flaunt it as subtely as possible just waiting for someone to run up to me and say, "oh my god! you like belle and sebastian!".. plus i have the badges too - i pin them to the cuffs of my jacket and slyly try to capture people's attention with them. anything to attract belle and sebastian fans, you know. study at stow - hear hear! shelley wrote: >dear people, > I am totally off this list cos I just got 100 emails in two >days which is far too much for someone with a life but I feel I have >learnt a lot anyway. aww, well that's a little unfair, isn't it? i think everyone on this list has a "life", don't you? judging from the people i've met from sinister, we're all very well socially adjusted. or maybe not, but you get the point :) besides, i think it's just a matter of love -- i *gush gush * love this list and gosh darn, i make time to read each and every message.. err, or at least i make time to delete them from my inbox. >Subject: Sinister: any top 10 lists for the year being gathered yet? ahh.. do i sense a rerun of "So, what's a list of all your list songs so that we can make a big giant list?" ;) jessssica firmly stated: > but i'm putting in two votes for >ahren, if anyone cares. it's probably not even allowed, but dammit, he is my >crush, and earning that title should get you something other than longing >stares (oh god, this is sounding so pathetic). well, if jessica can do it, then i'm putting in a vote for my sweetie in nova scotia. he loves belle and sebastian too so that must mean something. and if that's not allowed, then i'll put my girl vote towards jessica and my boy vote to mike, who i'm not sure is on the list, but was at the toronto meet before one of the famous shows-that-never-happened. if stuart murdoch can be ambiguous, then so can i. hee. i'm doing miserably in my accounting class - a big fucking BOO to the business world. *sweet smile* october leaves cover everything, teri xx ---- i'm asking you to peek: http://members.tripod.com/~meltingsnow/ +----------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list please mail "sinister(a)majordomo.net".

Sinister: annoying tape question
by rebelstrange＠ldd.net 06 Nov '98

06 Nov '98

sorry to sound like a spaz, but i'm desperate to hear these radio shows that have been spoken of, and the La Poupee song as welll........(grr!) is anyone willing to make a copy for me? that would be just SOOO good......i have plenty of blank tapes to use up..... wizz, you crack me up. trent from daria......hehe i tend to think that shy sensitive guys are gay too, or at least hope, i dont' know why , because i'm not a guy, i just have that weirdness going on.....i like guys who are slightly femmy and who sing in high voices, and wear cute pantaloons, and write sexually ambiguous lyrics with highly empathetic female characters. If i did ever go for boys, Stu m. would be the one......oh well, he's too old for me anyway. and just for the record, i think stu and isobel are just special friends. i'd like to think so. it creeps me out when people in bands have relationships. not that it's any of my business anyway..... lesley Jo

Sinister: stuart and isobel?
by sam jacob 06 Nov '98

06 Nov '98

Hi everyone, I have been lurking for a while and have been sort of shy about possibly saying anything, but this stuart/isobel relationship has me intrigued... My name is sam and seeing belle and sebastian in concert (in chicago) was the BEST show i have seen a quite a while... It is funny because just a week or so ago my boyfriend and I were talking over dinner how stuart murdoch might NOT be gay or sexually ambiguous at all, and it was sort of an epiphany. I know in theory that it is important to distinguish a singer/songwriter from the narrator of a song, but i have to admit i often forget... I have always found some of their songs sort of equivocal. I guess they might just be about sexually confusing times... Songs like, "Seeing Other People" say so much, but they do it subtley, which is why I like Belle and Sebastian so much... Anyway, you sinister elder listees who definately know the skinny on all things belle and sebastian related (your knowledge astounds me sometimes!) might be able to back up my hunches. Stuart M. seems like a very private kind of guy who doesn't like dealing much with the hounding reporters or indelicate probes into his personal life. I guess the only people that really would know the salacious details of this stuart/isobel affair would be some of his close personal friends (which some of you seem to be!). I guess i will have to keep on taking cues from belle and sebastian songs. ace as they are... thanks, sam +----------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list please mail "sinister(a)majordomo.net".

Sinister: nyc meetings
by Stephen Boyle 06 Nov '98

06 Nov '98

Just a quickie to tell all of my unexpected Scottish troika on Monday. Had dinner at a small restaurant and met Lloyd Cole. Spoke of B & S said he thought they were cool, but was off to see Sandra Bernhart play. Very nice and shy chap, though. Secondly, Eugene Kelly was a great surprise. And third, obviously B & S. Where do B & S fans go out in NYC. Sorry for such ultrageek comments, but have been up 20 hours and am a bit fried. Please let me know about any places in NYC or meet-ups. By the way Lloyd COle said he would probably be playing at the Bowery Ballroom on Dec 21st. Wasn't the Nov 2nd show tremendous? Cheers all!!

Sinister: get your own crush!

Sinister: Stevies full of good intentions
by Jake 05 Nov '98

05 Nov '98

Hi there, At present I have moved to the digest list, to save on space in my inbox, and as a result am always about 12 hours behind the mails, so please excuse me if this has already been answered. Mick McMick asked whether Stevie was mentionned in Modern Rock song, and he is. Stevies into good intentions, Richards into rock and roll, Stuarts staying in cause he thinks its a sin that he has to leave the house at all. And before you think that I'm a sad git who knows all of the lyrics, I spent the first few months singing a Century of Fakers, with the line "And the orthodontic cases" as opposed to "And the author dedicates it". Don't ask me why I didn't question the relevence.

<< > so cast > my vote for the entire list. well, perhaps, with the exception of > indiarub, who has clearly never seen north carolina in october. > AMEN! It's actually been a sub-par fall around here, and it's still so gorgeous it makes ya giddy. Ask Ginger...she knows. By the way, if there are any other Chapel Hillians and/or UNC-CH students who still need a copy of Tigermilk and the sessions, let me know. It's that whole mailing thing that keeps me from taping it more often. >> Bah. I sure have, and you know what? I've seen better. It was just a little joke at NC's expense, I hope you realize. Face it, the Triangle area is not one of the most beautiful places on the East Coast. Sure, there's lovely trees in their autumn colors, but they'll be gone next week to make way for another strip mall. gwt +----------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list please mail "sinister(a)majordomo.net".
