Sinister: Whee!!!!!! and other related topics
by Suzanne Schroeder 24 Jul '98

Happy Happy day! Yesterday was the first time in months I walked around with an incredibly stupid grin on my face all day long. Sadly, it wasn't love related, but it was even better.....Do you know when people continuously tell you that something is impossible and that you either have to kill yourself working or plainly know the right person to get something done? And then you get nervous because you think "oh gee, even so and so had to struggle and they're killer, so what sort of chance do I stand?...." Well, I proved them all wrong! BWA HA HA HA HA HA !!!!!!!!!!!! That's my non commital undefinable gloat for the day. > Date: Thu, 23 Jul 1998 14:10:44 +0100 > From: "Cassell Professional Publishing" <d.barker(a)cassell-prof.co.uk> > Subject: Sinister: crooked album review > > I just found out that my friend John will be reviewing the LP for Select.

Boxes? When phrased like that, it sort of makes the reward sound very goofy. I want to revise the scale to where it includes every charm from the Lucky Charms cereal box. I give the last album green clovers, blue diamonds, a purple horseshoe, and the rainbow charm. Either that, or a very complicated system with all former members of the Smiths with the scale ranging from Andy Rourke's latest project to the impossible member reunion outside of a courtroom. Hmm. I'm trying to figure out how to rate good and bad on this scale. Never mind. >If I find out > that he doesn't like it (god forbid), could we perhaps bribe him to give it > top marks?

Avalanche in Edinburgh said they were getting it in on the 27th, so thats probably the same in other record stores, i've been in every few days for the past couple of weeks asking them about it just in case (they must be getting sick of me by now, i would guess...) but that seems to be the date they're sticking to. (at £3.99- i don't know how that compares to mail order things, i never checked) debbie x ---------- > From: paula wiseman <paula(a)hannoncom.prestel.co.uk> > To: Belle and Sebastian list <sinister(a)majordomo.net> > Subject: Sinister: Looper single? > Date: 23 July 1998 19:49 > > > Hi! > Can anyone please tell me if the Looper single is available yet?

Hi! Can anyone please tell me if the Looper single is available yet? I tried to order one from my local record store, only to be told that it wasn't released. Is there anywhere in London I could get it from? I'll be there at the weekend to see Pulp in Finsbury Park. All help gratefully received!

Sinister: Re: One Big Chunk/Leeds Date

P.J.Miller wrote >I once saw this French film from >Belgium, it was the scariest film I've ever seen, really good. It was called >"The Vanishing". Does anybody know who the director is, or if it's available >on video? I would like to scare the wits out of my "other half" with it. It was directed by George Sluizer in 1988. He also directed the Hollywood remake about 5 years ago, which, if my memory serves me right, starred Jeff Bridges, although I never saw it. However, I have it on good authority that it was awful, as seems to be the way with such remakes... I recommended it (the original) to a friend who then promptly went to see the remake and berated me for recommeding such tosh. Without wanting to give too much away, they substantially altered the ending, thereby removing one of the factors which made it so shocking. It is a great film, very compelling, I don't know if it's available on video however. (It has been on t.v. in the UK at least once). J Errington wrote; >Question 1: > My ubiquitous friend Adam went up to visit his (possibly ex) >girlfriend >Charlie (AKA The Evil Pixie) a while back at Leeds Uni.

The question is, is this person on the list by any >chance. >here's fingers crossed. I'd have a good guess that this was (is) my friend Charlotte who managed to get her mitts on possibly the only copy of Tigermilk to make its way to Leeds, from Jumbo records. She periodically threatens to give it to me, even though she's a massive fan. Which would of course earn her my ever lasting love and gratitude... She's not on the list, (am I the only person from Leeds on the list?) but will definitely be at the gig. When I read about the Leeds date I got the most excited I'd been in a quite considerable time and had to ring her straight away. I'll ask her if she has a friend called Charlie, otherwise known as the Evil Pixie. Perhaps I better not mention that bit. The venue is an old-style music hall/theatre, all seated. It used to host that old BBC programme 'Old Time Music Hall' or some such, the older listees may recall...They have various comedians, pantomines, etc but never gigs, although having said that I notice that Baby Bird are also playing at the end of September. For post-gig partying you have 'Brighton Beach' at the Cockpit, a veritable feast of indie/sixties/soul type shenanigans open till 4am, or 'The Cooker' at the Underground, soul/funk/jazz type proceedings (till 2)...nearer the time I could come up with some pre-gig suggestions? Unless anyone else has any? Looking forward to seeing you all there Cheers Ed ----------------------------------------------------------------------- .
