Sinister: it's all possible because of plastics!

aloha, i have recently purchased a polaroid camera and am totally obsessed. if i ever get a scanner, you can see how skilled i am. if not, hope you're in my good books and you might get a nice one for valentine's day (yes wumpkinny, that means you - although i'm not sure what wumpkinny really means, it looks like it wouldn't be anything terribly bad and may in fact be something quite cozy). it's too bad, really, that stuart murdoch doesn't live close to me. because i could take arty nudes of him...<sigh> or i could just serenade him with my flute and lovely pants. although i would never leave mysterious photos under his front mat. kristen "big sis" schaffenberger wrote: >>After this self-obsessed spiel, I come to the conclusion that Jessica and I must resemble each other somehow.

Sinister: striken with a malady that mimiks death...
by promqueen＠anti-social.com 23 Jan '99

23 Jan '99

hallo my pretties. this is my second message. just so y'all know why you don't know me yet. i've been around, but so very silent. i arktually had a question that perhaps someone on this list could answer concerning the politics of your hair-dos. hee hee, no really. i'm curious about hair dye. I'm nearly no longer a teenager (6 months left!) and almost out of college (one little year to go) and i'm getting worried that i haven't taken advantage of my youth. hee hee, no, i have always wanted to dye my hair a brilliant royal navy color and figure nows the time to give into my indie-punk inclinations. the real question is about the dye to use. I want to do a permanent dye (i have dark hair, and would have to bleach it first) but i don't think that they exist in the US. I have heard you can get permanent color hair dye outside the US though. Since there are people from all over the world on this here list, I figure someone might have some imput. If so, please email me (or the list) and let me know if there are places I can order it from, or something. on a different, much more rockin note... THE JESUS AND MARY CHAIN!!!! yippeee! i forget who mentioned them, but i must admit i am a suker to everything these men stand for. jim and william are up there with daniel ash and mike ness on my list of "men who put the 'rock' back into 'rockstar'" aiiiieee. I saw them twice this summer, and would go again and again untill eternity. even despite the fact that they nearly fell off the stage in denver, and jim kept droping the mike and william forgeting the chords... well they are still my favorie band (well, there is the cure and joy division and the smiths and pulp and yes, bauhaus... and the apples in stereo, and of course b&s... but i have a lot of favorite bands) i recomend everything by them, to answer your question. stoned and dethroned is their most indie-rock album (shane macgowan does a track on it!) psychocandy, darklands, honey's dead, i hate rock and roll... all good. and then there is automatic, which isn't looked on as the boys at their best, but i don't see why. The new album Munki should have been on everyone's list of best of 98. Just plain perfect. enough ranting. receptionist? unhappy medium... lisa --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Get your free Anti-Social.com email at http://Anti-Social.com --------------------------------------------------------------------------- +----------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list please mail "sinister(a)majordomo.net".

Does anyone have a copy of the Black Session too ?? *beg* Isn't the re-release of "Tigermilk" a pain in the arse ?? My copy's gonna plummet in value now. Maybe I should sell while I can.......nah, never. I can't wait for Stuart David's "Up a tree" (March 8) and "The ballad of Ray Suzuki" (Feb 22). Also, Isobel's "The green fields of foreverland" (April 5) and "Weathershow" (March 22). I'm gonna see Looper on feb 11 in Glasgow. Anyone else going to that one? see you there maybe? PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE someone reply. I really want more B&S tapes.............I have £££££ or $$$$$ but if you were nice you'd give me a copy for nothing anyway. :o) oh well, That didn't seem too bad for a first post. see ya Simon. ______________________________________________________ +----------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list please mail "sinister(a)majordomo.net".

Sinister: Now do the coffee jingle
by TFertig3＠aol.com 22 Jan '99

22 Jan '99

Hello to all, I got the Acid House soundtrack. Did anyone ever bother having a listen to it? Anyway I can't tell the difference in Slow Graffiti. What is the difference anyway? Oh dear, I should check the archives for that, eh. Arab Strap scares me. Are all Arab Strap songs so smutty as the one in Acid House? Overall I don't like it very much. Too many stupid songs. And Stephen Duffy must have had some awful years, circa 1986. I got They Called Him Tintin, or at least that's what I think it's called, and it's mostly poo. I haven't gotten anything good in a long time. What is the absolute best album of all time (that's not B&S)? I will get it. And, what do Hefner sound like? And for that matter, what do Camera Obscura, Snow Patrol, and Salako sound like? Or is that too vague? Like asking what an eggplant smells like. Actually, they smell an awful lot like cake. Sometimes I arrive home from school and I think there's a cake baking, and then I discover it's only an eggplant. It's pretty disappointing. My favorite shape is eggplant shape. My chemistry teacher is shaped a bit like an eggplant. Does anyone drink Um Bongo? I had it for the first time in.. 13 years (which may not seem like a long time to you old people, but it's nearly all of my life, so it's quite a while!) I love that drink, it's heavenlydeliciousyummyinmytummy. Is Rollercoaster Ride smutty? Do Belle and Sebastian like chemistry? That is all, Tami xxxx +----------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list please mail "sinister(a)majordomo.net".

Sinister: Freaky Friday...

....Hi, It's me, Jeni, ummm "Photo Jeni", not the girl on the photo site holding the beer, (She is quite lovely though!) Umm, anyway, I work at Rhino records in Los Angeles, and I was updating my website today, (instead of working), and all of the sudden, H.R. Puf-N-Stuf walks buy! I jumped out of my seat, and into his big Orange/Green/and Yellow arms! I was so thrilled to finally meet a childhood hereo! Beth and I recently went to a book signing for Sid & Marty Krofft, and that in it's self was exciting, but to ACTUALLY HUG Puf-n-Stuf was way beyond that! WOW WOW WOW! I only wish Beth worked here as well, I know it would have made her day! Cheers- Photo Jeni xoxoxoxoxox P.S. I know this has nothing to do with B&S, but I keep telling people about this, and they are all, "Who's HR Puf-N-Stuf?" *gasp* and I adore you all so much, I know you'll just smile, and humor me...... :o) +----------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list please mail "sinister(a)majordomo.net".

Sinister: Jammy job!
by Pamela Hutchinson 22 Jan '99

22 Jan '99

Hello everybody I have had an amazing day and I wanted to spread my joy! I just started working for my college newspaper as a music reviewer. I get free records. I have just got the new Bis single. It's a good start! I have a grand plan to nab that up-coming Tigermilk rerelease before anyone else! Of course, I don't get paid but did I mention I get free records and also the respect/envy of my colleagues? If I get to review anything cool, I will immodestly direct everyone in the direction of the paper's website. If not, you many never hear from me again. Nice pants everyone! Oh and I wear glasses and cardigans, it's not an indie-rock stance, I'm just short-sighted and cold. Oops! No irony (or fashion know-how) here. Although, I WOULD love to know what a ye-ye dress is! bye bye pamela xxxxxx xxxxxx +----------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list please mail "sinister(a)majordomo.net".
