Sinister: Be good

>Of course not. First, Honey gets all our mothers' maiden names, using the >clever "porn star" ploy. Armed with these, he can conduct major credit >card/traveller cheque/etc. fraud since the first question the companies ask is >your mother's maiden name. Funny you know, I was thinking this recently too as banks always use it as their first line of security, and then remembered where this porn name bit up from (at least that's why I brought it up on chat, I suspect it's been going for a long time) and it was Chris Evans... i.e. the Devil, no wonder he's so rich, what a cunning plan. There was something funny on the radio this morning, oddly enough from Zoe Ball. A woman goes up to the bar and asks the bloke at the bar, "Can I have a double entendre please?", so he gave her one. Cheers, Keith. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- . This message was brought to you by the Sinister mailing list. .

Sinister: behave

PaulHoney wrote: "So I'm going to relax all the settings on the list that help me fend some junk" So we're in for a week of (i) confessions from listees that they love Metallica/Buck's Fizz and (ii) Stuart M's sexuality? Also: "Mother and baby doing fine, no flowers yet, not even grapes," Of course not. First, Honey gets all our mothers' maiden names, using the clever "porn star" ploy. Armed with these, he can conduct major credit card/traveller cheque/etc. fraud since the first question the companies ask is your mother's maiden name. Now, he's claiming to have had babies by all of us. It won't be so funny when the maintenance demands start arriving and then the court judgements. Flowers, or even grapes, would be vital evidence. And all those university people on the list are potentially high earners. Will what seemed like a few hours of innocent fun turn out to be a life-long millstone? But call mine Miro.

David , lovely idea but crap... my studio (workplace) is on one corner of that place and the library I use takes up one whole side, it would have all the wrong and unrelaxed feelings for me. It is nice though. Anyway, that's not so important, how's (almost) next sunday 7th june, for everyone (sheffield listees included). Meeting around 1 o'clock probably in piccadilly gardens and taking it from there? Alternatives welcome though, I'm flexible. This sunday would be good to, but I thought that might be too soon and the weather's too dodgy. Vote YES ! to a Manc picnic !! Stop the violence !!

Sinister: Hello I am new to the list
by Jochen Stepan / WA 29 May '98

29 May '98

Hi Sinister-Folks, I am new to this list and wanted to introduce myself. My name is Jochen and I am from Germany (Schöne Grüße auch an die anderen 5 Deutschen hier), where Belle And Sebastian never made it and will never make it into the headlines or heads or record players of the mostly dumb and ignorant people here. I like the warm and intense sound of the songs and the nice and convenient atmosphere of them. My favourite is the "Sinister" album, the singles were a bit weaker I think, though "Put the book back on the shelf" is my fave song. I don't have to much information about the band, so before I ask some stupid questions that everybody has heard before, I try to inform me elsewehere. Hm, just one question: are B&S planning a new record (single or album)? The last one is from long ago.... Bye ;*) Jochen And hello Tara, I really did join this list! ----------------------------------------------------------------------- . This message was brought to you by the Sinister mailing list. .

Sinister: Re: Another pearl, another gannet

I downloaded the first 50 seconds of the song one night through the Tweenet site and started playing it over and over again in my computer for at least half an hour. I was so touched, I was moved to call my ex-girlfriend all the way through the Atlantic Ocean at 3:00 AM just to sing her the song and share that moment of musical and emotional awe with her. The funny thing is that, even though I still don't have a tape of Tigermilk (which will change very soon, since Ron has kindly offered to tape it for me!), some of the B&S songs I like to sing along the most are from that album. "How so?", you may ask. Well, let's take "The State I am In" as an example. The whole song has more or less the same meter, so I just sing the whole thing to the melody of the part available through the net. The big problem is the "I gave myself to sin" part, which I have absolutely no clue to how it goes, so I just made up my own melody to that part, which I'm pretty sure is light years worse than the real one. I do the same thing to "She's Losing It", "You're Just A Baby", "My Wandering Days Are Over", "I Don't Love Anyone", and "Mary Jo", so if you ever hear some guy walking down the street humming one of this songs clompletely out of tune, well, that's me! By the way, I also like to sing "We Rule The School" and "Just A Modern Rock Song", even though I have never heard a single second of either one. Pretty sad, huh?

Sinister: Get outta my way you crazy fool
by Keith Watson 29 May '98

29 May '98

>Keith and his darling Dialiectizer said this: >>Next come Belle and Sebastian. Recording on the >>Jeepster label, this group (all active members of the T.A.) >Is this a joke? I am extremely gullible and could almost just about believe >B&S in the TA. Jon asked if this was a joke - yes, this I believe is a joke but I don't really know. I guess we'll find out if there's a call up, however Belle and Sebastian did actually escape from a maximum security prison in 1972, now they spend their time in hiding from the law, and helping out innocent people with their troubles. If they can help, and if you can find then... you could maybe call Belle and Sebastian. Cheers, Keith. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- .

Sinister: Mark Gardener (NB&S)
by ben ferneyhough 29 May '98

29 May '98

Hello all, just thought I'd let you know that Animal House (Mark Gardener's new band) are playing another gig here in Oxford on 13th June, at the Zodiac, Cowley Road. It's only a fiver, with a coolio club afterwards. There was a bit of discussion about Animal House on this list when they first played a couple of months ago, so thought I'd let you all know they were on again. Go see them, they are superb.
