Somewhere in my parents house in the UK is a stack of fanzines which, when I left the UK I couldn't bring myself to throw away. Yes I still have the Anorak City flexi given away free with the first Sarah Records fanzine (Sarah 3 and 4). I can even remember where I bought it. At the Boardwalk Club in Manchester when we had gone to see The Groove Farm in early 1988. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- .

I have cunningly subscribed to the Catatonia mailing list and shall lurk there, undetected, gathering secret information, wearing nothing but a long Mac and trilby like spies wear, oh and horse trainers. I shall be reporting back at regular intervals to inform you of any untoward attacks on yourselves, and then, comrades, we shall strike when they least suspect it ! We shall defend our mailing list, whatever the cost may be. We shall fight them on the beaches. We shall fight on the landing grounds. We shall fight in the fields, and in the streets, we shall fight in the hills. We shall never surrender! Alternatively we could just challenge them to a mud wrestling competition at this years glastonbury perhaps. In the nude. Eight puerile reasons why B&S are better than Catatonia: None of them are Welsh. susannah. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- .

Quick correction -those Manchester dates were on 27th and 28th December, with two shows on the 28th. Any Scottish fans fill us in with the gig dates from Scotland '96/'97? Anyone trading live tapes?

In a message dated 3/24/98 9:33:53PM, you write: << Next week, Stephen Trousers invites us into his beautiful pied a terre, and says "Poetry saved me from cocaine hell". >> Tag - who is this Stephen Trousers of which you speak? I ask simply because I, Stephen, Yours Truly (copyright Adam Ant) tried to change my pisspoor sign-on name to Trousers last week, and there's someone already using the name on AOL. Tigermilk is also taken, naturally. At this rate, I'll have to be Mr Lilac Time or something. (Weeps unconsolably) ----------------------------------------------------------------------- .

Sinister: Handbags at twenty paces

Jesus! Is there too much caffine in the water today, or something? I've never seen so much bitching on this list! First of all, Katrina House wrote: > pray tell stephen, what exciting publications (besides teletext) do you > write for? then, darling northy wrote: > This list stinks > GOODBYE FOR EVER AND EVER AND EVER AND EVER AND EVER > UNSUBSCRIBED and to top it all off, Tag had a go at me, saying > Isn't technology wonderful?

As he himself says: > >He's like a Bill Gates without a Microsoft Fucks sake, people. Hey Honey! Any chance you can bring back that "Happy Bunnies" tagline, cause since you've changed it, things have become pish. For the record, the e-mail Tag was bitching about was when I tried anagramming his signature and got "Robert LL McTaggart". When I e-mailed him, I didn't actually know what his real name was -- all I knew was the sign-off "Tag". My e-mail was asking if my anagram was his real name. I never got a private reply from him, just a heap of abuse to the list. FWIW, I have no idea why "Tag" has such animosity towards me. I post no more and no less shite than most. Hey Tag! If you *do* have a problem with what I post, then kill-file me. Otherwise, quit gurning. I hope you catch a virus from the enemies in Star Trek: ATTRACT BORG GERM! Now onto flufflier topics: First of all, does anyone else find that jon.g's RealAudio file "jumps" at 4m42s, or is it just my copy?

this is odd...i must have some part of my brain perma engraved to B&S...it was JUST last night i learn of thid 'Wrong Love'..and my DREAM last night: I was walking down the street when suddenly i see stuart murdoch selling hotdogs,even in my dream i'm debating in my head which song i should ask him about,so i go up to him and ask him to play 'the stars of track of and field' and he kneels down towards me like i'm some child and talks very gently "but genevieve,i can't PLAY that here,i'm a hot dog vendor" and i'm like 'oh,ok' and then he goes on "listen,have you heard Wrong Love?" i start sobbing "no no,you can only get it on the internet and i i haven't yet and my computer is mean" he nods understandingly "well when you do i want you to listen VERY carefully to the last 15 minutes of the song..." and tehn he told me to go to this room that had a magic plastic couch in it,the Belle And Sebastian couch,it was magical because you couldn't crawl under it (i don't know why that makes it magical) and i was going to draw a little picture(a box) on when i see that Stuart David wrote 'fuck off!' to me on the couch and i was upset...oh dear... chugga chugga choo choo genevieve ----------------------------------------------------------------------- .

Sinister: NEWS MAILING LIST
by David & Katrina 25 Mar '98

25 Mar '98

a lot of people have been moaning at me to mail them news when we have it so they don't have to stress their mailbox too much by being on sinister. since it does make sense to have a news only list (you won't be able to post to it!) that sends you a mail everytime there is news. i've gone and created one! ONLY jeepster records, the band and fan club will EVER mail you news from this source. as such it is guaranteed spam-free. you can subscribe and unsubscribe via the www ONLY. visit the url below and follow the obvious links from the main page. david kitchen - fan club -- ****************************************************************** belle and sebastian fan club mail-outs, IRC chat, lyrics, poetry, fiction, vote, records, artwork, news, merchandise, picnics http://www.totalweb.co.uk/bluesoda/ mailto:d.kitchen@virgin.net or mailto:bluesoda@totalweb.co.uk
