Sinister: Wisconsin picnic update
by jennifer 24 Apr '98

24 Apr '98

Hey. I changed my mind. The picnic in Madison, WI on May 3rd will be held at Olin Park instead of James Madison. I began thinking about the bongos and large playful dogs that are at JM on an average Sunday, and became immediately frightened. If you need directions, let me know. best wishes, Jennifer ----------------------------------------------------------------------- . This message was brought to you by the Sinister mailing list. .

Personally I hadn't seen it before - bit of a snogfest near the end eh? Katrina never said there would be another 'Scottish' section on the show (which also had Teenage Fanclub, The Delgados and a strange short film from the much hyped Toaster) so it came as a bit of a surprise and I couldn't tape it in time (boo-hoo)." I was heading for the bath as that Alt Nat came on. No TV in the bathroom, so I set up the video. When I rejoined the programme, in literally wet mode, the ads came on so I rewound but pressed the play button by mistake before reaching the beginning and there was Century. I, too, was suprised - by my good fortune in now having that video and also by Katrina not having told us to stay up late. The Delgados was a nice surprise, too.

Sinister: a great idea!
by PJMiller 24 Apr '98

24 Apr '98

What a rubbish week it's been! I've been poorly, had shitloads of work to do and I've started following people around by e-mail, like a sad bastard. How low can I go? And who can I turn to in my hour of darkness, in my time of need? Oh Lord, grant me vision, oh Lord, grant me...wait a minute...if only there were such a thing as the Stuart Murdoch Problem Box! What a marvellous thought! We all know that Stuart enjoys hearing about people's problems, but not everyone knows where he lives, or has got his mobile phone number. Hmmm. Why not install one of those jazzy window things in the fanclub website, so that people from Middlesborough to Malaysia, from Wisconsin to Wolverhampton, can simply fill in the box with their problems and send it off to David, who could print them out and save them and then give them to Stuart at the next band rehearsal? Nothing could be simpler. Stuart could then answer each one by hand or read them out loud to the Song Snake, who could churn out some top songs so that Stuart could solve a few problems for people on the next LP. Once Shockwave is installed, a little animated Stuart could welcome people to his Problem Box, saying, "What's the matter?" or "Don't worry. Would you like a coffee or something?" There, that's my idea and I think it's a winner. Come on, David, you could do it tonight instead of going to see The Snow Patrol.

Sinister: virgin listee easier and again
by Lindsay Sworski 24 Apr '98

24 Apr '98

i feel a hundred eyes on me. Hum... how should i create my persona for y'all? (american lingo). Well, the thoughts im having are dripping with sticky sweetness, things like "everyone on this list is just so damn cool and im inspired by the fact that other people seem to have felt or still feel that little tingling inside of them that i feel when i listen to the richness that is belle and sebastian." im basically an email virgin and kinda like the fact that i can write something that a hundred eyes will see. Wow. Cool. "something special." yeah. im from southern california. i grew up a few miles from the beach in los angeles. i now go to school in san diego, conservative capital of the world, and dont like it except for the other caged birds around me that im am collectively working with to break the fuck out of this joint. one day my roomie and i walked down to the beach to see the sunset and procrastinate. we were putting on our typical show of throwing sand and play-fighting/dancing with sticks West Side Story style when she began humming the tune to "Judy." i taught her the words and we proceeded to dance around joyously frolicing to our rendition, throwing wet sand in each others eyes and eventually jumping in the water (and stripping for a couple of lucky male witnesses). ever since then we have both seen an improvement in the quality of our lives! i swear, that damn music is MAGIC>>>>> YEAH! so how is everybody today? tonight? this morning? thanx Madame Cholet for the gift! theres much material out there i will eventually respond to but id like to offer my own psychological services: 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) 2) what is your favorite color? again think of five adjectives. it can be flexible, maybe you have two favorites or whatever... 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. email the answers to me and i will send you a personal reading after i use your answers to explore the depths of your soul. ;) anybody listening in san diego? perhaps the Sinisterines should sing cheers in the sweetly and slightly ironic vein of B&S, happy tune with deep and darker meaning... Get me away, Im D-Y-I-N-G Dying, Dying, cry for me! HANG YOUR HEAD IN SHAME! CRY YOU LIFE AWAY! We're all just little foxes in the snow How and why and when and where to GO! How and why and when and where to GO! GO GO GO!!! (with beaming smiles and pom poms sparkling and bums showing as we jump to touch our toes) my eyes are squeezed tightly shut and im wishing good things for everybody. word. lindsay.....................

In a message dated 23/04/1998 18:33:52 GMT, David doth write: << some people have mentioned in various ways that they were unsure that they were allowed to attend or didn't feel that they would fit in, so: EVERYONE WITHOUT EXCEPTION IS INVITED TO THE PICNICS >> For those who are unable to attend the picnic in Glasgow on Saturday, we are arranging an alternative event in Edinburgh. The Belle and Sebastian Burglary Picnic will start at midday on Saturday, will take place in various houses and flats in Edinburgh. Food will be provided (as long as the picnicers in Glasgow left their fridges stocked). Any valuables, cameras, tvs, etc. will be divvied up at the end of the day. Please bring your own jemmys, picks, stripey jumpers and swag bags. Andy ps. Just joking pps.

Sinister: L.A. picnic anyone? How about Portland? Seattle? Can I get an Amen!?
by Courtney Knopf 24 Apr '98

24 Apr '98

Hello my lovelies:) I haven't posted very much since I've joined up...but I've been seeing all these picnics being planned in regions oh-so-far-away from me, so I got to thinking...how about a picnic in Los Angeles? I'm thinking a lovely saturday afternoon....perschnapps May 2 or 9th? I'm a student at USC--yes,i know there's another Trojan on this list! i saw your address!--and I'll be leaving for the summer on May 10th so I'd like to do this in a timely fashion. Aside from Andy, whom I already know thanks to the Ben Folds Five list, I would like to meet the rest of the SoCal sinister contingent. If anyone is interested, just email me, and I will try to get something organized. And if there is anyone in the Portland/Seattle area on here, you drop me a line too. I'll be home in Portland all summer and would love to plan a picnic there too! ~Courtney The Sultraness of Swing "Is there any soup on the menu?" "Yeah, but we wiped it P.S. Andy--sorry i've been incommunicado. Finals and papers just creeped up on me. I'll drop you an email soon. ______________________________________________________ Get Your Private, Free Email at http://www.hotmail.com ----------------------------------------------------------------------- .

(to ESCPAE the googly one??)I have limited free >time..pooey..i think she should be able to go where we please...and we are >supposed to be in rooms at midnight..and if i go to bed too late,i will not >get up in the morning...so DING! lightbaulb(does a lighbulb make a >ding?)anyways..I simply will NOT sleep! Although..the teacher said there >will be a security guard outside MY door....but I can say I'm going to get >some ice,yes..some ice....so anyways,is Toronto safe to wander around at night? errr, my mother gets scared if i wander around toronto at night.. i'm just naive and believe that nothing will ever get me because i'm invincible but it may not be the wisest thing to do if you're alone and not familiar with the city! i don't really know the cool happening spots around toronto, but i do know a few nice parks and record stores.. genevieve - avoid the eaton centre and the scariness and garishness of yonge street (although, i like the big hmv.. when i bought a magnetic fields record, the shop boy was delighted at my selection! he was a doll..) you'll have more fun playing spot-the-hipster on queen street west, which is near the eaton centre.. there are some nice record shops along there.. sooo, fellow torontonians.. why don't we try to plan a little b&s get together around this? please just make it the 30th or after though.. i have an algebra midterm thursday morning that i have to study for! or email me or something.. let's see when everyone's available and do that.. okay? yay! sorry for making the people who live in more glamourous, exotic places read this.. (if you've read -vol de nuit- by antoine de st-exupery, email me and tell me about it's theme!) xxxx teri :) =================== it might be worth the effort, but we don't have the time or the will to intrude cos sooner or later you'll have to choose between one set of lies and another it's nothing new cos like it or not, there's part of me in you (ida) ----------------------------------------------------------------------- .
