Sinister: Tigermilk??
by Hicks, Simon 04 Feb '98

04 Feb '98

Another first-timer, I'm afraid! I'm also a late developer as far as B&S go but as they say "better late than never". Anyway, I've been frantically back-collecting since I bought "3, 6, 9 Seconds of Light". I'm getting more and more desperate. Does anyone know how to get hold of the earlier stuff (before "Dog on Wheels" and "Lazy Line Painter Jane")? Any clues and I will be eternally grateful!! Thanks for your time Simon ----------------------------------------------------------------------- . This message was brought to you by the Sinister mailing list. .

Sinister: Chat, Questions, Stuff
by Honey 04 Feb '98

04 Feb '98

IRC CHAT Katrina also won't mind me saying that there's now a preliminary date, finally for the IRC chat with the band - 2pm GMT on Thursday 26th February. DON'T start taking time off work etc. etc. as it isn't confirmed yet except with Stuart D. Nor are details about how we're going to run it so it will be broken cellos all roudn probably. The chat will be logged so you'll all be able to see it later. Sorry if the time doesn't suit - it just can't be helped - but I'm hoping they'll be more in the future if we all enjoy ourselves. If you are thinking of coming and haven't used IRC yet then TRY IT NOW! You need to get used to it or else you will be an unpopular bunny on the night, and it's unlikely you'll get any help in the week before as it'll be hectic. Pages on chat are on most WWW sites, including mine, but if you have questions please direct them to David on d.kitchen(a)virgin.net. He'll make everything alright like he always does. NON-IRC NON-CHAT But for those disenfranchised non-chatters here's an attempt to make things a bit better - I asked Stuart if the band would be happy to answer a set of mailing list questions (watch out for Susannah's) and he said yes. SO - please send ME (NOT the list) any questions you want to ask and mark them with the subject line: "B&S Question Time". Closing date, ooo, week today the 11th. Make them interesting please. I'll collect them together, remove all the repeated ones about Tigermilk and shoe sizes, and I reserve the right to restrict the list to something manageable (maybe 20) in an arbitrary way based on person attractiveness and how often you call me something nice. Quite seriously, I will pick at random if we get millions, so don't give me any stick if you don't get picked as I'm not in the mood. I'm in the mood for luuuurve. WHAT ELSE? Some random stuff. Stuart David tells me that Slow Graffiti, which I can never spell is appearing in a soundtrack to the file "The Acid House". Great song - should be a single. Said humbly and not looking for a fight cos I'll hide behind Laurel if you try it. Sorry to anyone who's mailing me and isn't getting replies again. I don't chuck your mail out, I promise, it just gets filed. One day you'll get an answer. Finally, thanks to all of you who have answered the clarion call and are posting stuff of some CONTENT to the list. I was getting a bit fed up with it all and now I'm bouncing again.

Re: Sinister: Two Sinister Lists
by Keith Watson 04 Feb '98

04 Feb '98

>> perhaps this problem would be solved if we had two mailing lists. One >> strictly for any Belle & Sebastian news, reviews, rumours etc and the other >> to be used for the other stuff we seem to chat about here. What's wrong with the list anyway, I mean, there are upper of 400 people on it, it can't be that bloody bad can it. I used to subscribe to the Manchester music list back in 1991 and it was shite - all you'd get was lists of DJ promos sent in every day by DJ's and the odd guy going "Have you heard the new Impossibles single" (ha ha - joke). It was a waste of time, most of the stuff on this list is worth reading... I certainly enjoy it. Hands up if you don't. >BUT, I need an answer to something: at one point in the article, ol' Jenny claimed >that Monica Queen is actually Isobel singing under an assumed name. But I thought >I had read on this list that Monica Queen is an entirely different person from Isobel >altogether, and that she's in other bands. So if anyone feels like responding to this >oft-asked question, ooh, that'd be appreciated. Monica Queen is as I remember, a very real person. I've seen her at a B+S concert, I saw her at a Suede concert in Glasgow in 1992, I saw her when we put on her not very good band on at the student union a few years ago. She was in a band called "Thrum" which rhymes with "Bum" and she's currently - so I believe, in a band called "Monica" who're named after Monica Selez... or Monica Coughlan or something... perhaps.

Sinister: Re: MTV & other delights
by plaird 04 Feb '98

04 Feb '98

Keith said: > Nice collection of videos on MTV last night though, Orange Juice one was >good, shot entirely on Gt.Western Road - never seen that one before. Snow >Patrol scrubbed up well too, thanks to the make up department :-). I taped the 'Scottish' segment (15mins of 2hr show) but wasn't organised enough to catch Orange Juice's "Blue Boy" - which happens to be my fave OJ song - so I was mildly disappointed. Impressed by Dog on Wheels, although I had seen it once before - I forget where. 1. What's all this stuff about "Cock Fun" on some toilet walls - I thought it was a well-known (male) toilet graffiti. Written of course by oh-so-ironic, very probably homophobic, saddoes. 2. The idea of having two lists is just daft innit? It's already been pointed out that a news-based list would probably peter out due to the unprolific nature of our heroes. Anyway I like the topsy-turvy rollercoaster that the current list can be. 3. I've seen a couple of mentions of Placebo over the last couple of days - would you mind not doing it please.

Sinister: and the dream of belle & sebastian
by barzy＠networkmags.com 04 Feb '98

04 Feb '98

I bet there are more people on this list who dream about Belle & Sebastian, than anywhere else in the world....hum. Last night I drempt that Orange Juice played where I worked and only did two songs, and those songs were Belle & Sebastian songs AND Monica Queen was singing and not Edwyn! Then I realized that Stuart Murdoch was the sound guy and I went up to him and squeezed him and said "you're still here?" And he sneered at me and said "you must have me mistaken for someone else who wears Staypressed." What would Freud say? I'm suprised that no one was naked, considering what i've been reading before bed....but hey....with long distance relationships, a girl's got to keep amused somehow...right? I'm glad Stuart isn't so snippy in person.*phew* beth and the dream of orange juice. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- .
