It seems like when I was over there, coaches between Edinbrough and Glasgow ran often, very cheap (6 quid off peak return trip), but even i can't remember how late they ran. I think they do, but even so, finding a youth hostel shouldn't be a biggie. > tickets are 5 pounds each and are on sale now from John Smiths in Byres > Road, Glasgow IN PERSON ONLY! That's near the University towards great western road. Not far from a Safeway.....sorry for pointless info, but I remember Byres Road being a bit long, and I do it for those who are as bad at finding their way around as I am. Hey, everybody, I'm listening to this CD by this new band called the Beatles. I think it's called White Town or White album or something. Doesn't anyone think if they had eliminated the filler on this album it would have been as good as Sgt. Peppers? Number 9.....Number 9.....Number 9.....Number 9.....Number 9...... I think I like the Simpsons version better when Barney belches after every "Number 9" Here's a question: have people managed to wrangle their favorite B&S album/EP out of the CD player long enough to experience the effects? What's it like? For me, i think about it, but I think Dog On Wheels has been in my rotation bin....about 4 months...long enough. ss. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- This message was brought to you by the Sinister mailing list.

Sinister: your mum
by Richard Hutt 04 Aug '98

04 Aug '98

I'll make it short (but I can't promise sweet) Would anyone on Harvey tape tree who has the grand fortune, or mis-, to receive my tape please note I got something wrong and the Phil Ochs song is actually "Rehearsals for Retirement" and not whatever gibberish I scribbled. Spaces still for the West Coast listening party in my car. I promise to be reasonably sober and drive something approaching the speed limit. You'd best come, or have a note from your mother why not. When can we expect journo-type previews to arrive here and be sold to shops?

Sinister: hello hello its good to be back, its good to be back
by susannah 03 Aug '98

Gentle Readers, Its been so long I've almost forgotten what to do, but unless you didn't know, my computer was held hostage by Twat Computers Inc. on the pretence of 'fixing my parallel port'. In truth i was getting rather worried, as they had it almost six weeks, and was beginning to suspect some awful Gary Glitter scenario, only of course I would have visited said adult sites by 'accident'. Err, yes. Anyway, I have received in excess of 1000 mails and if you think I'm going to read them you'd better get your ears cleaned out (eh?). A.M.Horne and Debbie , you've got a lot to answer for, and Keith! I've not even got down that far with my delete button, so it'd better not be you, clogging up all the bandwidth. I wonder if anyone would be so kind as to summarise events on the list since mid June, in a sort of Reduced Shakespeare Company kind of way. It could even include Tag and keith fornicating like animals if you're so inclined. mail me anyway, go on , you know you want to. I need to feel loved and wanted again. Well, I did a search on my name in the archives, and it only cropped up twice. TWICE! You fickle bastards. Right, now all I have to do is work out my list crushes, enter Chris Leonards daft quiz......., oh and by the way, whats all this about an album and some gigs????????

RE: Sinister: Glasgow gigs
by Seamus Campbell 03 Aug '98

03 Aug '98

Please help me! Two of my best friends will be in Scotland that week, all the way from Seattle, and would love to go to either of these shows. However, I'm worried about the shows selling out, of course, so if there is any possible way someone could pick up two tickets for me I would be happy to make whatever guarantees are necessary regarding repayment asap. I can send a check or an IMO (expensive, so I'd rather not) or I can just promise you that they will pay on receipt of the tickets... They're both nice people and I would hate to see them miss this opportunity...

Sinister: hang the dj
by debbie 03 Aug '98

03 Aug '98

Ha ha, Steve Pacamac is rubbish. But you already knew that... he was reading a list of the best selling records from a shop in Manchester, and at number 10 was, apparently, 'Looper' by Impossible Dream. Ah well, we know better kids, don't we? I hope the glasgow gigs don't sell out too fast for me to go and get a ticket on friday. Some weird shit has been going on with the bus service where i live (approx. 20 minutes car drive from Edinburgh)- it now takes 1hour 20minutes to get to Edinburgh by bus from the stop outside my house. And if i walk down the road i can get a bus to Glasgow that takes 35 minutes. This is obviously how the council is gonna stop people bringing their cars into Edinburgh- make them go to Glasgow instead. Oh dear. love, Debbie xx ----------------------------------------------------------------------- This message was brought to you by the Sinister mailing list.

Sinister: Question...
by Arthur Chan 03 Aug '98

03 Aug '98

I'm from California and I might be heading out to England soon. I've been a fan for a long time now and I can't wait 'till B&S come out my way next year. I erased the e-mail with all the English dates and I was wondering if someone could clue me in again. Anyone? PS: One of my co-wrokers said that Mojave 3's "Between Us" sounds like Pink Floyd's "Wish You Were Here". Is this True? I never listen to Pink Floyd. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- This message was brought to you by the Sinister mailing list.

Sinister: Where in the World is..."Maryhill Community Hall"?
by Shearer, Calumn 03 Aug '98

03 Aug '98

Answer: In Maryhill, of course! For all those from "forn parts" e.g. Edinburgh, Dundee etc. You can get to Glasgow by Bus (to Buchanan Street, usually every half hour 'till late) or by Train (Central Station's the big one - but there's also Queen Street) or indeed you can go by 'Plane or Helicopter (if you've got a helicopter, can I go to the gig in it too, please!) Maryhill is a district on the North side of the River Clyde, near Firhill (home of Partick Thistle Nil FC) and the River Kelvin The Community Hall's actually on Maryhill road (MAJOR road - everyone you ask should be able to point it out, unless their forn too) opposite Napiershall Street and next to a large car dealer's (Jaguar, I think?). You really can't miss it (honest!) You can get to the Hall via Napiershall Street from Great Western Road too, (another MAJOR road on that side of the Clyde) but it's not really too near the hall. (5 minute walk, but I'm terminally lazy!) The nearest tube station is St. Georges Cross, and from there it's just a brisk 10 minute walk up Maryhill road. We could arrange a picnic, or indeed a "pub picnic" and go en-masse, if anyone's up for it? I'm off to find a map that'll explain things a bit better than my strangulated vocabulatry can handle. ;) Oh, yeah - and it's _way_ past home time!
