Sinister: Monkeys- like people but... different.
by Div 30 Nov '99

30 Nov '99

Heeelloooo again. Apparently on the next release of our beloved banned there will be excited 'crowd sounds'. Is this impressive? I heard it from someone on my course (BA Applied Music) who I don't know v. well so it might be a load of ballocks. Maybe it is true, though. A couple of other people on this course played on TWITTERYBUSS (Gail Anderson, Sarah Wilson), so prehaps there is a whole connection thing going on. I have had BandS dreams before. They were all pretty tedious, though important to me. I woke up incredibly happy, every time- perhaps I don't get out enough. Last night, though, I went out. There was an acoustic night at we'r local. It was fun though I felt a fool after I played my new song what I wrote- 'Monkey'. The audience did not appreciate it. Perhaps after all the Nick Drake and acoustic blues they didn't want Death Metal.

Sinister: Expectations
by Brandt Fundak 30 Nov '99

30 Nov '99

So, everybody keeps telling me how lucky I am that Hefner is making a stop in the Cleveland area tomorrow night, and I would be silly to say that I am not absolutely excited that they are playing here in Cleveland, especially since it's the last good show of the year. Maybe I'm just looking a gift horse in the mouth, but I don't feel lucky. All the Hefner show is making me wonder is why we can't have shows like this in Cleveland all the time. The last good shows we had were Archer Prewitt/Quasi and Olivia Tremor Control, but that was a month ago. Am I being picky/snobbish? I just hate the fact that the pop scene really sucks around here and no one apart from me really cares. I realize that getting 1 show a month may be better than what some people on the list may get, but I really don't have much else to look forward to, as a good pop show will usually blow my Playstation NHL99 season away.

Sinister: i dont want your, i dont need your, pseudo satisfaction, baby.
by Paula Cullen 30 Nov '99

30 Nov '99

yes. i *know* this doesn't warrant a post, but...... has anyone noticed the striking similiarity between mick cooke and the singer bloke from Top Pop Combo Sugar Ray? no? oh. while i'm here...... a lot of you seem to be having B&S related dreams lately. a couple of weeks ago, i had a dream about Olivia Tremor Control, depite never having (a) seen them, or (b) heard ANY of their music. i also had a dream about the A-Teens, but i probably shouldn't go into that here. before i go, am i allowed tell slightly un-PC jokes here? probably not, so cover your eyes now if you are easily offended, or something. Q: what sparkles like a diamond and is small enough to fit in a schoolgirls ring? A: gary glitter Q: what happened to the midget when he walked in to ladies toilets? A: he got a box in the face. (note to people who dont speaka da eengleesh - "box" can mean "to punch/hit" or it can also mean ladies "bits". just wanted to clear that up, what with the gee debacle and all...) i should *probably* stop now, shouldn't i? paula cullen booze explosion booooze!!!! yeeeaaahh!!!

Sinister: what does the millennium mean to you?
by secret crush 30 Nov '99

30 Nov '99

i was very disturbed this morning, let me repeat, VERY DISTURBED, to receive by post haste a confirmation that one of my poems was to be featured in a book called "america at the millennium". i don't even vaguely remember entering a submission. why they would want to publish it, especially in something they describe as 'the most anticipated book the international library of poetry has ever published' is beyond me. i think you'll understand why it's disturbing: Untitled I stare at the river before me Its endless deep waters entrance me into a soft daydream of wetness... The water itself is my home. To feel the water envelop my skin, seeping into my eyes, into my mouth and into my lungs is to be forever at peace. The cold dampness can be felt in my bones and my fingerips glide along the surface. The world underwater is so safe and comforting and the perspective from beneath is true The twisted blur of human life does not exist under a layer of water, All is calm except for the current that sweeps me away into another world. i'm not sure if i'll initial the entry or not. any advice? dream on, heather e. ______________________________________________________ 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: salutations
by diegster sinister 30 Nov '99

woow, so i finally made it in here. iŽm really psiched about this moment, loosing my virginity in the list... :] what can i say? in my normal life, i have to show all the time my affection for belle and sebastian...like all my friends at university did never understood how could i play rugby and like b&s at the same time. they thought those two activities couldnŽt co exist harmoniously. so when last weekend i totally broke my knee during the game, in the most stupid way, kicking the ball, they all agreed that it was all belle and sebastianŽs fault. allright, if breaking my knee means total devotion to The Band, may it be welcome. if loving someone means feeling terrible angst, may the suffering be welcome. but thatŽs not how i see it. anyways,no intention to annoy anyone, by the moment. love, diego ______________________________________________________ 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: X38 - Let's try again shall we?
by Mr Beaker 30 Nov '99

30 Nov '99

TRAINS AND BOATS AND ELECTRONIC MAIL My posts are like the X38 to Plymouth. You wait 6 months for one and then three come at once (four if you include my attempt at crapness), and when it actually gets there it's full of crap. Sorry to anyone on the list who might have emotional ties to Plymouth...you must be very disturbed. BERWICK RANGERS A Big Hearty congrats to our very own Liz Daplyn, she may have ended up on the losing side, but the variety of faces pulled and dirty looks thrown was, even to a man of as many years practice as me, mightily impressive. How you never twatted that bastard Paxman I'll never be sure..."COME ON WILL YOU". How rude. Still, I must express my disappointment at your not being up for the Berwick Rangers one....Liz my dear, if there was ever a starting point for British footy trivia....tsk tsk. Respect for the cardie though. The Intolerable Mr Beaker. __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Thousands of Stores. Millions of Products. All in one place. Yahoo!

Sinister: schadenfreude
by Steve Kado 30 Nov '99

30 Nov '99

yo. someone said that nick drake could make their 'vegan ass' eat veal burgers. i immediately got a great mental image of nick drake entering said vegan's house while the vegan in question was debating whether touching the veal that had materialized on his table would pollute him or not. nick comfortingly places his hand on the vegan's quivering shoulder and says in his quiet nice little voice "hey, its just veal. have a bit." for the record i don;t eat meat either. my soul is glowing. i saw hefner a while ago. when darran first came out i thought he was from some lame canadian opening act. i cringed when he said 'we're hefner'. "gawd! what a nerd" i thought. all this changed by the end of the set. he was by far the coolest guy in the room and he did it with almost no chin and terrible teeth. he oozes some sort of powerful cool phermone. he is amazing. and i am digging this record by this band bodanstandig 2000. my friends joda and dingo and i were trying to guess which parts of the videogame each of their tracks would come from. but the best part is that they aren't from videogame soundtracks, their just a bunch of (apperantly) german people. they've got this really great one which is remeniscent of when mario finally saves the princess in supermarioland for the gameboy. exceilsor! sktaedvoe +----------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the reborn Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail "sinister(a)majordomo.net".

Sinister: thankyou for being you, it's so good to know you.
by The Narrow Wizard 30 Nov '99

30 Nov '99

Hey look at that, I managed to use a Pastels song lyric in order to title a post which is a big thankyou to a lot of people. So here's thanks to Charles Sean Ellen Adam and Sarah for helping me with my lyric problem If anyone was wondering the lines came from "Another Night In" by Strangelove. also thanks to whoever gave my third listcrush vote you're a fool but I think you're cool. and it's nice that I'm climbing the table 'cos some of the people above me I've never really heard of even though I read every post. Multiple or self voting perhaps? Or am I just a cynic? Can I stop writting questions now? What do you think? My only other news is that I think I should give up on women 'cos I don't understand them, my reasoning for this though is too boring to bother telling you about. It does seem to be a theme of the list at the minute, to give up sex in favour of fireworks and knitting. I wish I could knit and I wish I could afford fireworks "Man is by his nature so foolish, that wisdom is just a varied freak of folly." Thats a quote by some famous guy but I can't remember who. sorry about this but I've had a few drinks love and hugs owen With that the narrow wizard waggled his bushy eyebrows and disappeared in a flash of blue flame leaving behind only a faint smell of cinnamon +----------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the reborn Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail "sinister(a)majordomo.net".

Goddamnit! I hate to say it but I like the Nick Drake commercial. And believe me, I have zero tolerance for capitalism... But Nick Drake could make my Vegan-ass eat veal burgers.
