Sinister: i know
by Lindsay Sworski 25 Apr '98

25 Apr '98

I KNOW YOURE OUT THERE. I CAN SEE YOU LURKINK BEHIND THE HUMMING COMPUTER SCREEN, WAITING FOR THE PERFECT MOMENT TO POUNCE. I CAN HEAR THE BELLE AND SEBASTIAN PLAYING IN THE BACKGROUND, CAN SMELL THE UNFLUSHED TOILET, CAN TASTE... my point, if you live anywhere near los angeles or san diego, say hi, come out of the closet, let dance and play dodge ball, red rover, and duck duck goose at a picnic together, and as the sun goes down pull out out our lighters and sway back and forth with warm fuzzies in our hearts and warm beers in our hands. i dont know, it just sounds kinda cool to meet some people whom you somehow like even though you.ve never met them before''' you know what they say about the friendliness of our folk... last night i fell asleep to a low glowing-grey moon marbled by beautifully swollen cotton clouds, creeping... and this morning i awoke to my damn hanging plant having grown a green tentacle down to my bed and into my ear!! word. lindsay. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- .

Sinister: B&S Crush
by Chris Borne 25 Apr '98

25 Apr '98

I feel like I'm in high school again!!! At a recent show (Neutral Milk Hotel, much fun, of it's own right), I saw a little girlie I've had one of those crushes that come so infrequently, I have to bask in it's insecure warmth, and squirm when she looks at me. She's a dainty thing, and I was humming String Bean Jean when I saw her. I'm really not a pedophile, just have a thing for cute and dainty, smiles and all that. I couldn't bring myself to talk to her, afraid I'd open my trap and start talking like the adults on a Charlie Brown special, so my beloved friend Christa went up to her to let her in on it. please wish me luck, my friends, I haven't had this quivery feeling in quite a while. I know I'm silly, but I just can't help it. Anyone else ever just see someone, and be unable to think of another person? I know this sound stupid, but I thought if anyone may get this, it would be some of you on this list. God, I hope she doesn't lurk on this list, but here goes, I'll proclaim my pubescent crush loudly on the Internet. Are you out there?

Sinister: Denver picnic-is there anyone else Sinister in town?
by Chris Borne 25 Apr '98

25 Apr '98

HI all- I've come out from hibernation, so look out world! I was wondering if there were any other list members in Denver/Boulder or Colorado at all. I know others who know of the band, but none on this list. I've found the local music scene to be lame in general, but someone else must buy their music, I see them disappear from Twist and Shout and Wax Trax, our local suppliers of the obscure and deranged tunage. Anyway, if you are out there, please drop me a line, and we'll have a picnic on one of these sunny days we've had lately. To paraphrase something Jesus said (from what little I remember from Sunday school) where two or more are gathered in my name, ... I forget the rest, but you get the picture. Please, someone answer, it's mighty lonely out here in the mountains. BTW, if anyone is travelling through the Denver area, drop a line, and we'll hook up. I don't bite, ---hard.

Fw: Sinister: Hopkirk and Lee
by Chris Borne 25 Apr '98

25 Apr '98

I've heard and read the same, but have had problems acquiring this one. What a tease. I hear how similar they sound to B&S, (Although I doubt it could match the excellence I've found in B&S, probably more like the taste of RC cola compared to Coke) but couldn't find squat, even searching at my local Indy shop to order it. Any suggestions? What label are they on?

Sinister: picanica
by bradford 24 Apr '98

24 Apr '98

well, i had a belle and sebastian picnic today. it was wonderful. the only problem. i forgot to tell anyone. i went out to chehaw park, the local zoo and park type place. i packed about five picninc baskets full of bologna sandwiches, couscous, and goldschlager. after about an hour of waiting for others to show up, this litle kid wandered over and said "hey, mister....will you play with me". i said "scram, youngun" and he started crying, so i gave him some goldschlager. by four o'clock me and the kid were climbing up the howling monkeys cage drunk as shit going "whhooooooooooooooooooo" like the monkeys do. then the kid fell down and scraped his knee and said "FUCK". this was overheard by some delightful old grannies looking at the baby bald eagle, and they hurried over and said "well, i never....a drunk five year old using such profanity" so the kid goes, "aww, shut up you hairy whore" and one of them has a heart attack. and then we hear over the intercom that there's a missing child in the zoo and the mother is looking frantically for him and there's a reward. so i look adoringly at my new friend while he's puking in the gator moat. i'm thinking....."hmmm, reward" (i was too drunk to think of much else). the kid comes over and grabs the last bottle fo goldschlager and down it down and goes "bbuuuuurrpp......hair of the dog that bit me" and then i realized what i had done. so i ran off, neevr to see the kid or the handsome reward ever again. and when i got back to the table, all the sandwiches and couscous were gone. i'm planning another one next weekend. > 1) what is your favorite animal? think of 5 adjectives to describe > this animal, why you like it or how it makes you feel. (doesn't HAVE > to be just adjectives, but description of what it means to you) sloth. sugary, wet, comely, grainy, see-through > 2) what is your favorite color? again think of five adjectives. it > can be flexible, maybe you have two favorites or whatever... mauve. red, kinda red, dark, is that a hint of purple?, sexy > 3) what is your favorite body of water? it can be ANYTHING - ocean, > cup of water, rain, shower... and youe guessed it, 5 descriptions of > how it makes you feel. toilet. loved, cared for, horny, infatuated, obsessed i hate goodbyes. -brad ----------------------------------------------------------------------- .

Sinister: B&S Article in Thai magazine!
by oon 24 Apr '98

24 Apr '98

dear all, the magazine is called 'GT', March issue. the only indie-ish publication in the whole kingdom. written by Mr.Arthit Promprasith who, i believe, is still lurking here. i've made an attempt to translate it for the most parts. as it's rather long, i don't think i should post it here. anyone like to have a look just email me. of course, i can't offer you the master translating skill of Prof Miller, nor the AMAZING and bizarre translating machine of Master Mitchell (if only it can do Thai-English, i would love to see the outcome!) so think before you send in your request :) take care, oon xxx ----------------------------------------------------------------------- .

Sinister: yes, it's about the new york picnic. just happen already!
by mkl206＠is8.nyu.edu 24 Apr '98

24 Apr '98

ok, it has come to my attention that i was perhaps not specific enough about the information relating to a meeting spot. first off, yes, i did mean central park. i thought the swingset to this playground in the south was a good idea. we'll probably be sitting in the sheep meadow, playing music. if you hear b&s, it's probably us. you've been warned. also, some people watch the weather channel, and have informed me that it's supposed to rain all weekend. i'm hoping this is bullshit, but should it actually happen, we'll need some sort of back up plan. let me just say that this picnic *will* occur on sunday at noon and as of now, is meeting in the location specificed in the last post. any suggestions for rain locations will be noted. until sunday! xox megan ps - if you can't get email on the weekend, write for my phone number. mkl206(a)is8.nyu.edu visit the magnetic fields web page at: http://www.dissemination.com/megan/magneticfields/ ----------------------------------------------------------------------- .
