Sinister: Leeds gig location (no Leeds gig location content)

*---* HAPPY BIRTHDAY SINISTER BABIES *---* >P.S.: 2 things for Mister Miller... >first, Echo and the Bunnymen were never the same once they *got* a proper drummer... Excellent riposte. 100 points. Now where did I put that dodgy bootleg from Eric's? But I'm right aren't I? Even though I'm wrong. That dead fella used to use brushes. >second, which Junior Byles best of is it? I've never heard a bad Junior B record, and can >particularly recommend his work with Scratch, Niney and with Channel One. I haven't heard the >new Blood and Fire release (partly) by him. Anything with 'Curly Locks' and 'The Long Way' on is >a sure fire smash. a N!E!W! Blood and Fire release!? My first love in the world of portly Jamaicans. Now I dig Heartbeat and Jamaican Gold. I bought the Junior Byles record anyway. It is on Heartbeat and does indeed contain the songs you mention, Tim, one of them three times. I haven't listened to it yet, but it gets an "E" from the Rough Guide, so it must be good. Also, I'm beginning to get the hang of Bounty Killer. I think the expression I'm looking for is "insanely catchy". On a lighter note, Junior Byles appears to have suffered from metal illness as well. Do you think the high level of mental illness in Jamaican music circles is due to ganja consumption? I do. Did I say "lighter note"? I didn't mean it. Peel the Chemist this morning treated me to my first experience of Arab Strap. It reminded me of The Pogues, well, the singing anyway. I really rather liked it. He also played THE DELGADO and I was quite satisfied. It was a little bit country. All comers were well and truly steamrollered by a beautiful track by I Roy, however. Ooon, are you receiving me? I got your tape package yesterday, despite having given you half my new address and half my old address. Doh! I haven't listened to any of it yet, but I can exclusively reveal that Winnie the Pooh is hot news in Thailand and that Dr Paul's mystery finale is in fact Splat saying "pish".

Sinister: Good news and Bad
by Simpson, Claire E 04 Sep '98

04 Sep '98

*---* HAPPY BIRTHDAY SINISTER BABIES *---* Good Morning All! Well the good news is I have just managed to get 2 tickets to the gig on Monday, so I am more that a little excited. The bad news is that now only two of the three of us get to go, so there is a very pouty man walking round London as we speak. I know this is a long shot, but if anyone out there has a spare ticket, or knows a man who has, you could potentially make my friend very happy indeed!! Meanwhile, have an excellent weekend thinking of TBWTAS and the show on Monday. Huzzah!!

Sinister: Kubrick
by Neil Dewhurst 04 Sep '98

04 Sep '98

*---* HAPPY BIRTHDAY SINISTER BABIES *---* Er, am I massively wrong here, or has everyone forgotten or somehow failed to see the marvellous and bizarre 2001? Catch it on a big screen somewhere if you can, anything else doesn't compare. xfm, oh dear. I haven't listened since the last song I heard one night was something by Ocean Colour Scene, and the first the next morning was U2's Discotechque. +----------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list please mail "sinister(a)majordomo.net".

Sinister: It's about time.....
by HoleRole＠aol.com 04 Sep '98

04 Sep '98

*---* HAPPY BIRTHDAY SINISTER BABIES *---* Hello Folks, I've been a member of this list long enough. It's about time I started participating in all the conversation. My name is Aaron and I live in Brooklyn, New York. I have every intention of meeting as many of you as I can at the concert on the 1st of November and at the picnic, which I hope to attend. At this point I will proceed to bore those of you still reading with the details of my day (yes, there is some B&S content). After seeing There's Something About Mary for the second time I went back to my friend Maurice's house. I stayed there for dinner since my own family were all out for various reasons. Maurice is one of the many people who I am trying to turn on to Belle & Sebastion. I had brought my copy of Dog on Wheels over to his house and he put it on just as his mother half asked half forced me to help prepare dinner. Then a strange thing happened. Beneath the din of a household with four children, a frazzled mother and a tired friend helping to prepare dinner (you have all probably heard similar sounds in your own homes at hectic moments) came the familiar sound of Stuart Murdoch ("When I was a boy i was confounded by you....."). I'm not sure if the music transended the hussle and bussle and brought the house up with it or the beauty of the music was stifled by the noise but the juxtaposition was interesting. Glad to have a place where i can share my observations, Aaron +----------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list please mail "sinister(a)majordomo.net".

Sinister: mouse/leeds
by Heinitz 04 Sep '98

04 Sep '98

*---* HAPPY BIRTHDAY SINISTER BABIES *---* hello everybody, just to say, i think i will be at the pre gig gathering tomorrow in leeds, although i am slightly worried about attempting to gather and then being too shy to say anything to anybody, as i am wont to do. anyway, whether i gather successfully or not, i will enjoy the gig immensely, i am sure, as i am very excited about it. as for the mouse, well, i haven't seen him since i returned him to his freedom, but i don't often walk up to where we released him. it was quite near an old people's home, so if the brief domesticity had a permanent effect on him he could have taken up residency there, and might be nibbling at old people as we speak. or rather, as i type. or as you read, whatever. it isn't that i'm not sentimental (i am, hopelessly so), but i have plenty of animals to worry about without the mouse. i regard myself in a kind of fostering role, rather than an adopting role, with that one. a sort of pippa-off-home-and-away character, only without the enormous skirts. leeds again - i am a short, dark person, and my friend is a tall curly haired person of the male gender. if you see us, and feel inclined, say hello. love, the girl with the mouse (abi, who can hardly contain her excitement) xxx +----------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list please mail "sinister(a)majordomo.net".

Sinister: new CD in stock
by OLDSCHREC＠aol.com 03 Sep '98

03 Sep '98

*---* HAPPY BIRTHDAY SINISTER BABIES *---* No, I'm not mental and I know the label reads this. We have the new CD (did I mention just 2 copies) since we are a small ma & pa record store. Labor Day weekend a few years back I bought the 4 CD The Who -> box set the Friday before Labor Day at a major store (Best Buy) when it wasn't due to be released to the Tuesday after the holiday. It happens sometimes cuz holiday shipments get shipped early by distributors. It's not like anyone goes and advertises it. You didn't hear the information from me. We don't do any advertising for our small ma & pa record store. I didn't offer them for sale to anyone here. Did I mention the name of the store? No, I didn't, did I?
