*---* HAPPY BIRTHDAY SINISTER BABIES *---* hi there...those of you who know me hopefully do not think of me a trainspotter.....anyhow, down to the business of issuing directions: there are two stations in shepherds bush and it doesn't matter a fook which one you go to... one is on the central line and is slightly further away from the venue than the other. if you go to this one turn right out of the station walking past the 7-11 (B2??) on the right and continue on that street until you get to a dodgy winebar called Edwards (on your right). cross the road (to your left) and walk paralell to the top of the green. you'll see the empire on your right this is an underground station while the other one is above ground (but it's still an underground - confusing isn't it?). the other station is on the hammersmith & city line....turn left out of the station and cross the road continuing towards the green until you come to Barclays on your right and nasty winebar Edwards accross the street on the left. turn right walk past Barclays (unless you happen to see a particularly frail wealthy-looking old person at the ATM one simply must clobber them over the head and make off with their loot, taking in the gig en route to, erm, eastbourne AND you get *bonus* points if they are carrying a pension book) and the Empire will be on your right. right? i am having a particularly bothersome day at work today. i have done nothing except read old emails from my adorable love button and hope that when the godly B&S play "sleep the clock around" they will have that heavenly machine gizmo that makes the cool "dooooo, woooooo, booooo, doooooo" sound like there's something a-bubblin' in that that cauldron of isobel's....i think i'm going to get to the pub a little bit earlier than anticipated. i'm staying at my desk for another two hours...any PMs would be greatly appreciated. tonight i'll be the nerd wearing the red tee that says "ST. HILARY'S 25"...come say hello. gawsh i'm all excited. <schucks> rough trade have the cd for 12.99 and the vinyl for 8.99. that's almost free isn't it? oh, is anyone going to cornelius on wednesday? AND WHY DIDN'T ANYONE WRITE TO PHILPPE????? HE FLEW ALL THE WAY FROM STRASBOURG FOR THIS SHOW!!! can i mention my dear dear friend miss piggy's film diaries is a page turnin' (shouldn't that be mouse clickin'?) experience. wow - check out the glam ziggy piggy on www.muppets.com *fabu* dolls. funkyseb - what's the deal with the digs man?

*---* HAPPY BIRTHDAY SINISTER BABIES *---* Okay, this is getting mad, i've spotted more.... Dirty Dream #2 sounds like From Under The Covers by The Beautiful South The Boy With The Arab Strap has similarities with Slip Slidin' Away by Simon and Garfunkel..... fear ye not, I think that's it!

*---* HAPPY BIRTHDAY SINISTER BABIES *---* Be really careful of the yahoo maps -- I tried to use one once, and it was full of errors -- it bore no relation to the actual streets that were there, aside from the main street. We had to go back to the beginning and ask at gas stations along the way.... That's the US ones, but I'd still be really careful of them. +----------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list please mail "sinister(a)majordomo.net".

Sinister: Similarities continue.
by MATTHEW WIMBURY 07 Sep '98

07 Sep '98

*---* HAPPY BIRTHDAY SINISTER BABIES *---* It's been really bugging me each of the many times I've listened to the album today what the beginning of ease your feet in the sea reminds me of and i finally worked it out....it's Judy and the dream of horses... sorry for all these comparisons but its just that the songs keep reminding me of stuff. theyre still all brilliant and sounding better with every listen. May i ask why, in the voting booth, chickfactor is so low? I mean, below century of elvis? Its not one of the best on the new album but it should definitely be higher... +----------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list please mail "sinister(a)majordomo.net".

Sinister: A few things
by Simpson, Claire E 07 Sep '98

07 Sep '98

*---* HAPPY BIRTHDAY SINISTER BABIES *---* being the div that I am, I have deleted the original messages to copy in, but I had a couple of things to say. Fear not all who are worried about the bar code not being recognised, as mine just went through loud and clear. Maybe fear not those who were worried about the "letting us use the name until now" quote. On the back page of the CD (inside) there is the same information, EXCEPT it says "the artists would like to thank Mme Cecile Aubry for having given them permission to take the name" which sounds quite permanent to me. Perhaps the inference was to the fact they have been using it without permission up until recently. Anyway... I am sitting at work, looking diligent and listening to B&S on my laptop surreptitiously, and so far I am in major ecstasy!!! bliss..... See y'all tonight! Yip yip! Claire PS The new album was on prominent display in Virgin. Anyone else scared that they are going to go big time? Moral dilemma - am I being selfish, or am I concerned about the music becoming mainstream like Chumba?? +----------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list please mail "sinister(a)majordomo.net".

Sinister: Shepherd's Bush
by Simpson, Claire E 07 Sep '98

*---* HAPPY BIRTHDAY SINISTER BABIES *---* Could someone let me know if the venue is anywhere near Shepherd's Bush subway station, and if so, how to get to it (if not could you let me know which subway station it is near). Cheers, Michael Anyone who is unsure where the SBE is, go to http://www.streetmap.co.uk and look up Goldhawk Road , and you should get a fairly comprehensive map. SBE is on the corner of Goldhawk Road, Bush Green and Shepherds Bush Road. Hope this helps.

Sinister: It could have been a brilliant LP
by Martin Conneely 07 Sep '98

07 Sep '98

*---* HAPPY BIRTHDAY SINISTER BABIES *---* Only joking. I took David Kitchen's advice and waited for the full impact, which we got last Friday evening. Joss had played DD#2* and TBWTAS on his wireless programme on Thursday which caused some distress. My wife, son and PJ Miller doll all got very excited on heaing TBWTAS and started singing "when I die an' they lay me to rest, gonna go to the place that's the best, when I lay me down to die, gonna recommend me to the spirit in the sky" Martin C * Is the "chameleon" in DD#1 Boy George? +----------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list please mail "sinister(a)majordomo.net".

Sinister: Nottingham festivities
by Cassell Professional Publishing 07 Sep '98

07 Sep '98

*---* HAPPY BIRTHDAY SINISTER BABIES *---* Just a quick one to thank David and Katrina (and whoever else helped) for arranging the disco after the show on Saturday - me and Sarah had a great time. I thought Stuart M danced like a little pixie. I thought the show itself was great - hot and sweaty concerts are good. True, there were a few silly people in the audience, but it was still cool. I know a lot of the songs are supposed to be quiet, but I still think the band could play some of the songs a bit louder. We were right at the front, and we still couldn't hear Stuart very well, or some of the instruments. They'll have to turn it up a bit tonight, I think. I hope they mix up the two sets, as well. Later, DAVID +----------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list please mail "sinister(a)majordomo.net".
