Sinister: The WHO
by Keith Watson 24 Jul '98

24 Jul '98

>Pete exposing Roger's chummy on stage antics. I must agree here, this one's a cracker, where Pete Townshend's asked about what his least favourite live WHO song was, and at first he replies "Dreaming from the waist - cause Roger used to like doing it" and then he changes his mind to "Sister Disco" cause Roger used to try to pal up to him whenever they did it live to try and make it out like that they were best pals really - which he claims they weren't at all. I'd recommend almost any 70's WHO album to anyone (Except maybe Who are You, but there's still a few class tracks on that one), indeed I'm gonna record over whoever's sending me a tape with 70's WHO songs and then send them all to someone I've never heard of - for the tape tree. Katrina's suggested a place to meet for the after London show carry on. Here's the deal : >Trash @ Plastic People on Oxford Street - good dj's, lovely (yet >somewhat crowded and tiny) venue ... used to be going underground .... >which was ace ... kind of like that britpop place we took you to on the >saturday night, yet they play more 60's stuff on the monday's. Which reminds me, that place sold only HALF PINTS. Something I was not chuffed at all with - and indeed the 70's WHO would have been far from chuffed with, well known for their boozy, televisions out of windows antics, indeed, another WHO anecdote involves how in New York, Keith Moon paid about 8 taxi drivers a large sum of money to block off both ends of the road they were in, so's he could safely launch televisions out of the window. Cheers, Keith. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- . This message was brought to you by the Sinister mailing list. .

Sinister: New releases
by Kevan Cooke 24 Jul '98

24 Jul '98

Whoopee! First there's the B&S record, then there is the long awaited Tindersticks rarities collection (long awaited by me anyway), and after that there is a new Momus record as well! And not only a new Momus record, but a new Momus record featuring songs called "What are you wearing?" and "Coming in a girl's mouth". I bet Nick Currie always wins at dirty scrabble! Unless he's playing against Arab Strap of course. Kevan ----------------------------------------------------------------------- . This message was brought to you by the Sinister mailing list. .

Sinister: Pulp in the Park tomorrow
by Vicky Parkinson 24 Jul '98

24 Jul '98

Those of you who have tickets for the Pulp do tomorrow may remember that a couple of weeks ago I suggested we could arrange a meeting place for those interested. And then there was silence..... Yes, my organisational skills are second to none and whoever employs me is going to be astounded and lost for words. However, I , with the help of Stuart G, (who i dumped it on after I fled London last week) have a plan! A lovely shy (ie. list onlooker) bloke has offered his address as a meeting point, which makes a lot of sense as I fear it would be very hard to meet everyone successfully in a public place. Anyway, we thought if we could meet at his at 12 and then went to get some food before going in (as we aren't sure how strict they're going to be on food/booze)? The address is: 9A Digby Crescent N4 2HS And the directions from his flatmate are (cos I only just phoned and Jim wasn't in) >From Finsbury Park tube station, take the front exit, and to the right hand side is the Seven Sisters Road. If you get lost at this point, apparently just ask for the Seven Sisters road and you'll be put on the right track) Walk down this road on the RH side and either the 3rd or 4th street on the RH side is Queens Drive. Walk down Queens Drive, and Digby Crescent is on the left hand side. He's called Jim, be very nice to him, and I hope he won't be too mad at me for sending his address to 500 people, and I think he is very very kind for offering his house as a meeting place. Have I grovelled enough? So I'll hopefully see at least two people there, and if you decide to shun us, enjoy yourself anyway.

Sinister: Listening Party?, etc.
by Mick McMick 24 Jul '98

24 Jul '98

Hm... I am faced with a bit of a dilemma. You see I'm the music director for a smallish college radio station. I thought that perhaps when the new album comes out, we could have a little listening party at the station. Put up some flyers, bake some cookies, you know that sort of thing =P Anyway, I still think it's an all-around good idea, but I am in a bit of a pickle. For us, classes don't begin until September 8th, which (in the US) is the very day the album is slated to be released! So my question is: do I bite the bullet and organize this listening party on the first day of class, knowing that it'll probably affect attendance in a negative fashion; or do I wait a couple days until the weekend or something like that, and have the listening party a few days later? A later date would attract more B&S-listening students, but I think the spirit of the thing might be screwed up if I did that. What do you lot think? Help! Also... Mark Casarotto says... > Firstly, as I found out to my cost, you're not allowed to use the word > "bosoms" when Katrina might be around.

Is that a matter-of-fact game? Or did your game just devolve into that =D I think it might make an added challenge to the game, and a certain modicum of fun that the game sometimes lacks... Maybe we'll play dirty Scrabble at the listening party...nah. Nick Dastoor pleas: > The other day I was challenged to think of a good film about love that > has a happy ending.

Sinister: Hairy what??
by Mark Casarotto 24 Jul '98

24 Jul '98

As usual, it takes little Nickie Dastoor to wake me from my slumber, but here are my comments on his (and other people's) mailings. Firstly, as I found out to my cost, you're not allowed to use the word "bosoms" when Katrina might be around. It upsets her, though for some reason "quim", "felch" and "hairy pie" drew nary a gasp when we were playing rude scrabble. Well, I didn't get punched for them, anyway. Secondly, How about "Grease" for a good film about love with a happy ending? Hardly highbrow, I know (and as you know, highbrow is a dirty word in my book - wish I'd thought of it while playing scrabble), but not only do they sing that groovy song at the end, but Sandy transforms from a tedious virgin to a sluttish, smoking, be-permed vamp in funky trousers, which has to be a result in anyone's book. Thirdly, if anyone's going to popstarz tonight, I'll be the fairly tall bloke wearing the rather silly emerald green shirt and no doubt some exceptionally funky trousers which I hope to buy at lunchtime. This especially applies to my mystery list crush... :-) B&S content - my rediscovery of "3,6,9" continues apace. If the new album is, as rumoured, along these lines, I will be a happy pixie indeed. Though I am a bit bored with Fakers, to be honest... Love, Mark. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- .

Sinister: Loopper again and again...
by Stephane Buron 24 Jul '98

24 Jul '98

Hi! I dont have the time to read all the posts to the list (unfortunately) but i noticed you were wondering about the Looper single. Well, a silly question : which single are you talking about? I found two weeks ago a 7" in Paris (yes!!!)with Impossible things and Spaceboy Dream : is it this record you're talking about??? I guess not. Maybe an EP will be released... I'm sorry for my ignorance. Would you help me? take care, happy sinisterians (i hope i'll have the opportunity to meet some of you in Leeds or Nottingham) Stephane -- "If the sun going down can make me cry Why should I not like the way I am ?
