Sinister: Hoochie mama, show your nanas
by mctag＠bigfoot.com 04 Oct '99

04 Oct '99

Hello Rascals, First of all, I bring you glad tidings of great comfort and joy. I just saw Sinister's very own Wedding Belles JJ and Rachel at the palace of Imperial Majesty which is the Trafford Centre and I must say they looked positively radiant. Isn't love grand? Anyway, it's Monday evening, Wumpkinny-san is at Japanese class so I can play that Moloko single dead loud without being told off for having impure thoughts about Roisin Murphy. This weekend, she (Wumpkinny, that is, not Roisin Murphy) and I answered a call of nature, and went to the Yorkshire Dales, famed for being the place where James Herriot used to stick his arm RIGHT up cows' bottoms. No such...ahem...fisticuffs for us though, instead we gamboled and frolicked as new born lambs, visited magnificent waterfalls and went down a fucking big cave, where Wumkinny made some, frankly uncalled for, remarks about the errm...todgal nature of stalactites. And I bought a hat. It's a very nice hat, and it's got flaps to stop my little ears from getting a chill, so it's both stylish and practical. Thim "Devon knows how they make me so creamy" Hopkins wrote in a strange Wessex dialect: >You'm bin worrying moi loivestock. Gerrofff moi land. Actually he didn't. But imagine if he had? He did however state, with quite uncharacteristic forthrightness: >If it^Òs got a sitar on it, I^Òm not bloody well buying it. >Do I look like some kind of hippy? Frankly, you do. But get your hair cut and ditch the Tull '73 Tour t-shirt and all may not be lost. Chris Melonballs whined: >Can anyone give me a job? Yes. I've got a chimney that needs sweeping.

Sinister: Little birds in winter time, hungry are and poor...
by robhalcrow＠lineone.net 04 Oct '99

04 Oct '99

Dear everyone, I only get to see digests at weekends now, if that, but I promise I won't post without reading everything. Cross my heart. Anyway, on the subject of the next album Ailsa was right. When I spoke to Richard C in the summer he said he wasn't writing anything for the album. I can't remember who said they'd rather have all Stu M songs but whoever it was I don't agree. I think one of B&S's big attractions for me is the way that everyone gets a go at their own songs and the band manages to come up with a lovely arrangement every time. So a song which you might politely describe as "slight" (like "Paperboat"?) becomes something memorable when they've all done their bit. Or is that too idealistic? Following on from Laura Lew's book list recommendations I don't think liking Nick Hornby's "High Fidelity" is a bloke thing. I'm a bloke and I think it's crap. It's demeaning to men...oh we're so silly and anal and just little boys inside...how wonderful of women to deign to condescend to have anything to do with us. Or is that too cynical? (You may notice a not so interesting dichotomy emerging). However "Fever Pitch" and "About A Boy" are v good, I reckon. Lastly if any Sinister types are knocking about Goldsmiths College for the next year or so (like what I am) feel free to email me. Then we can say hello.

Sinister: Observations on a digest, Nalda Said, etc.
by Brandt Fundak 04 Oct '99

04 Oct '99

Okay, after reading the latest digest I just had some issues I wanted to get my thoughts out about. THE SINISTER MANIFESTO I found this interesting, but the word Manifesto always makes me frightened, because it always says to me "let me tell you how to live your life." Now I am not saying this in Megan's case (although I did wonder what brought said manifesto on...) but with the recent politcal climate in the US, what with the elephant dung Virgin Mary and the Christian Coalition getting together for a powwow last week, I am a bit wary of people asseritng their ideology lately. I refuse to push my thoughts on anyone--but I am frankly getting tired of people wanting to decide for me how to live my life. I am 24 years old and I am a big boy and can make my own decisions, and if I choose to assert my wish to see an elephant dung Virgin Mary (which frankly is more interesting than the usual virgin mary's I've seen about) then I will go see it, Rudy Guiliani and the Christian Coalition be damned. I want public funds to go for it as well, because I am part of the public and I pay taxes and I think that people should be given an opportunity to see it. NALDA SAID I am of course intrigued by Stuart's foray into print, but I am also weary of such things. I have consciously passed up novels by Peter Farrelly and Stephen Fry (two people I find very funny/entertaining in the media that I was introduced to them in) because of that very fact. I often wonder WHY people are being published and if they received their initial fame through a different media, I will be suspect. My main issue here is that I doubt Stuart David would have been granted the ability to publish Nalda Said had he not been "Stuart David of Belle and Sebastian fame," something that is the first thing pointed out in the author bio on the Amazon.com UK web page for Nalda Said. I will reserve such judgement until after I have read the book however. I'M NOT DOWN OFF THE SOAPBOX YET I was dismayed to find out today that the media giant that owns half of the radio stations in Cleveland is buying the company that owns the other half. So much for radio quality. Sorry but 2 college radio stations and an NPR station are small oases of hope and they seem to be getting swallowed up. I LOVE IT WHEN... Someone thinks a job is too menial for them so they make me or another hard working person do it instead. I always want to say, "Boy, do you know how to get on the right side of the worker's rights guy." MAYBE THE SUN WILL SHINE TODAY My gran had some awful cancer surgery today and made it through. We feared the worst and she ended up making it, but she has a long road to go. Thanks for letting me vent.

Sinister: Why not smile??? Reflections of a good time that could be better
by Koen De Crock 04 Oct '99

04 Oct '99

Hello fellow sinisterians, wonderful people Finally, I've made it!!! Out of the fucking nursery and into the wonderful, magic world that is the sinister mailing list. So many fucking crazy people all combined by one major thing: their love for a small, gorgeous band called Belle and Sebastian. Okay, let me present myself. My name is Koen, i'm 23 years old and from Belgium. Crap, of course, I mean, why do you want to know how old I am. It's not that that matters. By the way, apparently Koen sounds a lot like the portuguese word Cunaõ (any portuguese people who can confirm this???), which basically means the same as "cunt". As I have a lot of Portuguese friends who write me now and then, I am also known as el fortito, which means the small, but brave one. This is basically shite, because I am not small, and definitely not brave. But, my name is dutch also menas, yes...... "Brave". In case any of you would like to know, I study international political relations in Leuven, Belgium. I mainly do this: 1) because it is an extra year (I already have a degree) and don't want to work, and 2) because I am really interested in it (surprise.......). So, if I talk too much shite about every thing that goes wrong politically in the world, just kick me (virtually, of course) For now, I will shut up about it. So, why do we love Belle and Sebatsian's music so much? Is it because they make the most wonderful, poppish and lovely music in the world? YES. Is it because their music always sounds great, whether you're drunk, sober, doing the dishes, talking to your girlfriend or f***ing her? YES. Is it because they are a perfect substitute for a girlfriend (don't know whom of you wrote this, but it is true)? YES, and I should know: my girlfriend is Portuguese, from Lisbon, some 2000 miles away; when I miss her, I play B+S, the perfect medicine. Is it because they refuse to give in to the big money of the capitalistic major record companies (I am a left wing pseudo-anarchist, you know)? YES, of course...... And I could go on and on...... Anyway, are there any Belgian people on this list. Maybe, we could have a meet up in Leuven, or Antwerp, or Ghent, or Brussels..... So, my love for Belle and her Sebastian goes very far, but..... why have they only played once (as far as I know) in Belgium?? And why did they have to do it on a night I could not go??? So, come on, you press-shy (at least, that's what the papers say) popstars, come to Belgium and give me a treat!!!! My life does NOt revolve around Belle and Sebastian. At least not enirely. I also listen to other great stuff: Godspeed You Black Emperor, Mogwai, Motorpsycho, Low, dEUS (the Belgian pride), Do make Say Think, Sofa, etc....... The last albums I bought were: 1) Everything is nice (10 years of Matador): it features a brilliant Mogwai song called Hugh Dallas, previously unreleased (Don't know why it's not on one of their Albums or EP's, caues it's one of the best they've ever done. 2) The Carve Up: a CD compilation from the famous radio show on London's XFM, which is sadly stopped: it features an accoustic version of Nick Cave's "The Mercy Seat", and another exclusive Mogwai Song, "Nick Drake" (good enough, but they've done better). As I believe Music you listen to is always a reflection of someone's character, I hope this list gives you a bit of an Idea of mine. By the way, my friends say I am shy. This is not true, I just don't see the point in talking on and on without saying something. I went to a party of a friend yesterday. Drank a lot, the music was shite, but the people and the atmosphere were nice. Had a lot of laughs, saw a friend I hadnt seen for quite a while and finally could set my mind of my girlfriend somehow. Lost my glasses, found them back (all broken), so had to buy new ones. Fuck!!!!! But, did not let this spoil my weekend. Slept till two o'clock on Sunday, woke up with tigermilk, watched cycling on the telly, went to the pub for a few beers, etc... So you see, nothing much happened. By the way, how can I know my girlfriend is not cheating on me in Lisbon. I guess I will have to trust her, which I do, most of tthe time. But, sometimes I start doubting. I mean, what's the point in continiung this relationship anyway??? There's a lot of great girls here too, I hardly ever see her. We communicate by phone , letters or e-mail. We send each other gifts, etc.... The fact that I am still with her after one year must mean that she's actually so great that it's gonna be difficult to find a better girl. This makes me sad sometimes, because I know I will have to give up all muy friends, and family here to move to Portugal in a year or so... (She said she does not really want to live in Belgium). Is this realistic, or not???? Don't know. Love moves in mysterious ways. Anyway, If some of you have the same problem, you can always send me a private e-mail. My mind has wandered of now. I guess I will go now and listen to Belle and Sebastian some more. And come on, lets do a meet-up somehow, somewhere in the Vicinity of Belgium. Let the electronic renaissance live on El fortito, a.k.a. c*** ______________________________________________________ Get Your Private, Free Email at http://www.hotmail.com +----------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the reborn Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail "sinister(a)majordomo.net".

Sinister: stuart and stuart write
by Honey 04 Oct '99

04 Oct '99

Hello children - Watch With Mother time again. I've got two things to share with you all so gather round. Before I do, can I say it's lovely to see some ragged old faces back on the list from ages ago, it's like Remembrance Sunday. I'll take this opportunity to bore them to tears and remind others that you're all little darlings, but please remember when you post to the list to have a think about how many people receive what you send... I don't mean to be an old nag, honestly, and you're all doing swimmingly really. Once or twice though people tell me that the list traffic is a little too high and unfocussed to keep up with, so a little nudge to remind you all please to... think before you send. The list goes wrong when the majority of people don't have time to read the majority of posts, so please try and keep your audience in mind. Eeek you'll all hate me now. On to business. The first thing is that that nice man Stuart David has finally got a publisher for his book "Nalda", extracts of which some of you might have read on his Looper site at http://www.treehouse.clara.net but which he didn't ever finish putting up. The publishers have written to me (and other too) because they want YOU to hear all about it (and buy one). They're also sending me a copy for a competition, so we're having a "Tim Hopkins Swearing Contest" The idea is that you swear at Tim Hopkins in a Belle and Sebastian related way, via email, and he judges which is the best. You get points for (a) humour, (b) B&S content and (c) cussability (he says). DON'T swear at him yet, unless it's unrelated to the competition, we'll be sending on rules of engagement a little later this evening. Anyone who swears at Tim without good reason before the competition starts gets disqualified, although I'm sure someone will take advantage of the opportunity anyway. Anyway here's the blurb from the publisher (I've just seen Alex's mail: it might be the same blurb): ***** NALDA SAID - STUART DAVID'S INTRIGUING DEBUT NOVEL, PUBLISHED BY I.M.P FICTION, IS RELEASED 18/10/99 STUART DAVID WILL BE PERFORMING WITH LOOPER TO PROMOTE NALDA SAID, DURING THE WEEK OF RELEASE AND SIGNING COPIES - Saturday 16th October - Virgin, Glasgow.

Allow 21 days for delivery, normally dispatched within 7 days. ABOUT THE BOOK - Riddled by an intense fear of his bizarre secret being discovered, the narrator of Nalda Said grows up in the strange seclusion of a shoddy caravan with his Aunt Nalda, whose own colourful storytelling leaves him perpetually trapped between fantasy and reality. Nalda's nephew eventually finds work as a hospital gardener where, perhaps for the first time, he finds true friendship and begins to realise that his dark secret has been suffocating what hope he had of ever leading a normal life. Finding himself in love, this socially disjointed figure struggles to reconcile his own curious view of the world with the stark daily reality that most people are forced to live with. Yet, his own bleak battle to break free from these mental shackles oddly reflects the desperation of the very same people who cruelly poke fun at him. Nalda Said is a disturbing, compelling and brilliantly crafted tale of one man's pained anxiety and desperate search for his dream - to live a normal life. ISBN: 0-9533275-2-3 Paperback, 160 pages Published: 18/10/99 Price: 7.99 uk pounds ***** Secondly, that other Stuart, Mr Murdoch asked me to pass on info on the following WWW site to you all, which he got at a pop star party, just cos. ***** > hey, this is for real. help feed the hungry for free! > > PLEASE take the time to read this. > The Hunger Site at the U.N. > > This is a really neat website.

Sinister: I had a dream....
by stephen hewitt 04 Oct '99

04 Oct '99

yes, another one. In said dream I had a copy of the new B&S album and I was trying to make out what the tracks were called. One of them was definately called "Victoria [something]" possibly "Place", so if a track turns up with a title like that, I will have concrete proof that I am, in fact, psychic. Unlike, at the pub quiz last night, when they were doing anagrams at the start of each round. The theme was HORROR and the first answer was "Mary Shelley" and I said before the second round started "it'll be Bram Stoker next time", and it was. Hardly psychic, more stating the bleedin' obvious I suppose. Oh, we won the quiz, so if anyone wants to come down to Cheltenham next Saturday they can have a free beer on me.* *Prize limited to 1 beer per person. While stocks last. I did, however, predict in an e-mail to GEORGE DICKIE last week that someone would copy his style and thank you Craig for proving me right :) Comrade Magnetic Megan said: lots of stuff which I've replied to her personally about, but UP THE REVOLUTION anyway. Nothing like a good manifesto, that's what I say. As long as we don't end up doing a "Life of Brian" and split into The People's Front of Struan, The Popular Front of Isobel (yes, I know, popular and isobel in the same sentence, ha~ha~)and the Popular People's Front of Chris Geddes (SPLITTER!)

Thanks are also due to whever it was who recommended 'Behind the scenes at the Museum' on this list, eons ago, as i read it during the summer whilst employed to fleece the people of Yeovil for a round of Crazy Golf. A fine book, so many thanks.
