Sinister: There's only one McTag?
by Barrett R 11 Jun '98

11 Jun '98

Sorry if this is old news to all of ye, but is the Robert McTaggert who writes of the Iranian film "A Taste Of Cherries" in this month's Uncut our very own McTag? If anyone is thinking of seeing the film in question, I'd just like to warn them that the 4 stars that this Mc Tag gave it is 3 more than it deserves. I had the misfortune of seeing it at the Dublin Film Festival and it's this sort of plotless humourless junk that give foreign films a bad name. How it beat The Ice Storm and LA Confidential to the Palme D'Or is beyond me. (Apologies if it's not the same McTag at all and this is completely irrelevant) I know there are some Go Betweens fans out there, I saw Robert Forster the other night and the man is still a star even if some of his solo stuff doesn't quite match previous heights. No GBs songs though, apart from "Rock n Roll Friend" as an encore, which was a pity. If anyone knows of record shops in Paris/Toulouse/Bordeaux could they please let me know. I'm heading over next week for a couple of games, being one of the jammy sods who got through on that hotline. Cheerio Ronan ----------------------------------------------------------------------- .

> Didn't the boys play well, obviously not well enough though. After Brazil scored in the first four minutes, every single Scotland supporter in the Uni of London Union had there head in their hands, expecting a total thrashing, which all the English 'friends' assured us we were going to get. So they did very well indeed. but what happened to Morocco? They were playing so well, they had possession, control, good passes, and then it all faded away, just like in the friendly with England a few weeks ago, no stamina. I can't believe I just talked about football, what's got into me! B&S content - I got a bit concerned when I read messages of tapes wearing out, so I thought I had better make a spare copy of Tigermilk. However, i decided to do it when I was having a bit of a bad day, dropping glasses and spending 5 mins clearing up the mess, and generally being unable to do anything right. So what did I do? Put the tapes in the wrong way round, and wiped half of The State I am In. Doh. I had no trouble crying to Tigermilk that day! Any London Listies fancy getting together a huge Scottish contingent for the next match, and finding a decent pub with some decent Scottish beer? (is that a contradiction in terms?)

hey folks! i spent too much money on records again today. never mind. i'm only a student for three more days... amongst the pile sof b-52's, joan baez, blondie, bonzos and beach boys (bit if a b day today. not the toilet thing of course...) stuart who i managed to convert to belle and sebastian (and by accident teh magnetic fields) suddenly thrust a small seven inch in my hand which was being sold for ten pence. and it is gorgeous! the band are called the anydays of notown records (heh heh) and it was released in 1987. teh first track - confessions - is very jangly and nice but the second track (not sure if it is a b side or what..) is a fantabuloso janglathon which all belle and sebastian fans may swoon verily at problem is that i can't find a thing about them. no information at all. pish. so anyone heard of them? it is lovely.... and next tiem you listen to "ray of light" by madonna, listen carefully to teh bit "and i feel...". my mate james pointed out that it is scarily like "anna friel". does madonna watch brookie? discuss...

so do i!! and my friend alyssa almost shot herself in the left nostril when i reminded her of the show and she was like, "OH MY GOD.... (in the worst imaginable accent) SEBASTIAN!!! ah yes and i got my friend ethan to love B&S the other day... but now he wont give me my cd back... matt (btw, since y'all seem to have infinitely expanding music collections, anybody wanna tape trade? it would be very silly if you said yes since my own personal collection sucks, but hey if youre in a generous mood) << okay to tie this in with B & S... whenever i mention Belle & Sebastian to any of my friends who have never heard of them, (which is pretty much everyone) i have to say "not the Disney characters." >> ----------------------------------------------------------------------- .

Sinister: re: anyone for a free movie?
by Tara Widmer 10 Jun '98

Just an opportunity to say if anyone hasn't yet checked out tasha's Moz comic, you SHOULD!!! it is very cute Based on that alone i'd be willing to purchase a listee t-shirt if you decide to help design one... it's a great idea, btw. But can we have some of those scoopneck fitted ones too, instead of just the regular concert-style t-shirts? Kind of like the ones they sell at Bebe, just not as slutty looking. Anyway if you are serious about this count on my order! smitten & bitten & stuck like glue... tara ----------------------------------------------------------------------- .
