Hello sexpots, Stuart David sent the following so stand by your browsers. Oh and Keith, Linda and I have decided that the Looper single is officially "pretty good". That's pop journalism for you. The Honey Who Was Paul xxx ---------- Forwarded message ---------- Date: Thu, 25 Jun 98 19:53:27 GMT From: Stuart David To: "P.S.Mitchell" Subject: Re: thursday If you get this in time can you put a bit on the list saying the Treehouse website will open tomorrow, and that there will after all be an attempt to broadcast the show live from Java on it. Broadcasting live from Mars- the show is called, and it'll be around 10.30pm our time. How good it will be I can't say, but there'll hopefully be something there. :) Stuart P.S. the website address is www.treehouse.clara.net or www.clara.net/treehouse depending on your browser. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- .

Sinister: New thread WITH Belle & Sebby content!!
by John Stuart/mail+schedule 25 Jun '98

25 Jun '98

What with all these collaborations and spin-off bands, I though I'd start a belle and sebastian "rock-family tree" to keep track of them all. Here's a few that spring to mind, everyone's welcome to add to it. Perhaps someone will want to put it on there web site, once it's finished? Belle & Sebastian (1995?-Present) Stuart Murdoch ---------- previous bands 'Lisa Helps The Blind' and 'Le Pastie De La Bourgeousie' ' Isobel Campbell Stuart David ---------- also in Looper with wife Karn Richard Colburn Chris Geddes ----------- also in 'V-Twin' Sarah Martin (from 1996?) -------- other project, name unknown Mick Cook (from 1998?) ----------- also in 'The Karelia' and 'The Amphetameanies' Snow Patrol (formally Polar Bear) Stuart Murdoch features on 'Safety'. Richard & Chris feature on video of last single. Arab Strap Stuart Murchoch, Chris Geddes and Isobel Campbell feature on 'The Clearing', and other tracks I can't remember of the top of my head. Cheers, John. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- . This message was brought to you by the Sinister mailing list. .

Sinister: criminales, coches, pistolas y chicas
by debbie 25 Jun '98

25 Jun '98

everyone buy the Chicks ep!!!! Now! Oh go on... three of the tracks skirt dangerously close to Bis territory, but the first one, 'Let Me Go' (as played by honey Jo Whiley) is a fab slice of P!O!P! perfection. And it annoys the heck out of my mum, which can only be a good thing. and any band who is obsessed with and name check Star Wars in their songs is ok by me. so there use the sauce, luke... love, Debbie xxx ----------------------------------------------------------------------- .

Re: Sinister: Belle and Sebastian Family Tree & A REQUEST!

> Keith. > > ps : the family tree sounds nice, although I thought Stuart David was doing > one anyway - if he is, we could do another band, maybe Colour me Badd, or > perhaps we could do a Family family tree. Anything for you Keith! Family - Roger CHapman (vocals), Charlie Whitney(guitar), Rob Townsend(drums), Tony Ashton(keyboards) & Jim Cregan (bass) Formed Leicester 1966 - an amalgamation of two local bands. Above line up was the one when band broke up in 1973 Previously known as the Roaring Sixties & then Farinas Went to London in 1968 to record their Music In A Doll's House album followed it with Family Entertainment in 1969 people who I've never heard of left, other people joined & I haven't heard of them either. They made more records. They split up. The end! That was fun wasn't it? Now my request, I want you, dear listess to tell me about the first time you heard B&S, the circumstances, the song(s)? Was it love at first listen or did you think "it's like punk never happened!" That may have just been me though as I think that all the time: the bus is late "it's like punk never happened!" I think. Anyway, my idea is to somehow incorporate your replies into a B&S page I'm preparing for my taking shape on a browser near you fanzine, Red Roses For Me, which you really all should visit, if only for a cheap laugh & sign my guestbook :o) it lives at: http://www.geocities.com/SunsetStrip/Cabaret/9043/ bye! steve "Pain and beauty, our constant bedfellows" Sabine Strohem steve(a)seahorses.demon.co.uk Red Roses For Me Fanzine & Records For Sale http://www.geocities.com/SunsetStrip/Cabaret/9043/ ----------------------------------------------------------------------- .

Sinister: Looper
by shop＠jeepster.co.uk 25 Jun '98

25 Jun '98

hi everyone, (sorry to everyone who's on the Sinister list and will probably receive this twice ... i forgot to use the news service first time round ... oops!) Well, the only B&S news i have is that Stuart David returns with wife Karn as Looper. The first release is a limited 7" through SubPop and seeing as though i'm in an extraordinarily good mood this afternoon, here's all the details you need to get your mitts on a copy, kindly supplied by Jenny at SubPop ... ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ LOOPER 7" ... distributed by SubPop U.S.A. Self-titled 7", limited to 2,000. Tracklisting - A: Impossible Things and B: Spaceboy Dream #3, catalogue number SP446. It can be ordered through our website http://www.subpop.com (hopefully in the next week there'll be a page for Looper) or you can call toll free 1.800.SUBPOP.1 which is the direct mail order line. Or write to: Sub Pop Mail Order 1932 1st Ave Suite #308 Seattle, WA 98101 U.S.A. the Looper 7" web page should be finished by the end of the week. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- so there you go! i dare say that rough trade in the UK will get a few copies in, but apart from that you're probably best off getting them from SubPop or on import from the states. (if you're outside the US of course!) oh, and then there's the gig @ Java tomorrow night (friday 26/6) about 10pm-ish ... and i hate everyone who's going! jealous? me? never ... :) if you need any more info, please mail me mailto:a-and-r@jeepster.co.uk or jenny @ subpop on mailto:jennyh@subpop.com and there's the treehouse website where you can leave a message for stuart and karn at http://www.treehouse.clara.net cheers, Katrina. ************************************************************************** jeepster recordings ltd. - a-and-r(a)jeepster.co.uk 217 canalot, 222 kensal road, london, w10 5bn, u.k. phone - 0181 964 9432, fax - 0181 964 8600 http://www.jeepster.co.uk This message was sent to 709 people. ************************************************************************ Message sent from the Jeepster news service To remove yourself from this list visit; http://www.jeepster.co.uk/ If you wish to join a B&S mailing list, then visit; http://www.majordomo.net/sinister/ ----------------------------------------------------------------------- .

Re: Sinister: Belle and Sebastian Family Tree

>SARAH: "I'm in a hobby band, the Two Brothers...It's fun but it's mostly kind >of a drinking thing. We've only practiced like three times. It's me and >Gerry Love and Eugene Kelly." What a great idea, I like drinking, can I be in this band too? actually, maybe I won't be allowed in as I'm not a pop star, but I can drink! With the best of them, in fact, I'll take them all on at once! Does anyone want to join a Belle and Sebastian drinking club? We could have our own special drink (booze) and our own special badge (forget that, it sounds shit). Down the hatch, Keith. ps : the family tree sounds nice, although I thought Stuart David was doing one anyway - if he is, we could do another band, maybe Colour me Badd, or perhaps we could do a Family family tree. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- .
