Sinister: Shake your bon bon
by Erica MacArthur 16 Nov '99

16 Nov '99

Dearest Lot, Suffering Autumn misery-guts syndrome, I have been driven to listening to the cardigain's Life album from under a blanket, eating milky way strawberry whips. It is my firm belief that they are putting something in the water, as I havent felt this tired since I last did a charity shop trawl (read: thriftstore) - the old women that hide all the good stuff in the back room, they slip a needle up your arm on the way in and drain all the colour out of your cheeks. Their Rouge just doesn't have the same effect - it's the delicate english rose Vs the leathery slapped bottom look. And let's face it, the leathery slapped bottom look is about as fashionable as a drum solo these days. The Fascist debate. I'm going to put my hands out, wrists up and confess - I *am* a sportswear facsist. I hate people who wear combat trousers and designer trainers, I laugh in the face of a Kappa Jacket - and wholey hope that they will laugh right back at me in my Red Socks and Kitten Heels - infact I quite enjoy that, because it means I've done a Good Job. Musically, I'm not quite so snobbish, although to my discredit, I know I'd have to hide a few horrors under my bed if someone was coming round that I was trying to impress. Isn't that always the way though, making such a gallant effort to present yourself the serious and sophisticated young thing, you realise you left your copy of the BEANO out. >But then I always like >songs with cursing in them. tell you what *is* fabulous - Shirley lee from Spearmint singing "and I'm sorry, to be so blunt, but that man, is a cunt" when you least expect it! So rude. They do put a parential guidance sticker on, at least - which is less than I can say for those filthy Hefner boys. Right, I'm going back to hide under my blanket. Send me your electronic affection!

Sinister: another bus related post
by Curtis Heath 16 Nov '99

16 Nov '99

Howdy... here's my bus story... I've been driving a bus for about a year. A "special needs" bus actually. That means my bus has a wheelchair lift. On my first day, a little boy yelled at me, "and today's contestants are?" I didn't understand what he meant. But after a few weeks I came to realize that he watched game shows constantly, and could only communicate through game show lingo. "and today's contestants are?" translates to "who are you? where's the regular bus driver."

Sinister: that word..
by Ian McKinney 16 Nov '99

16 Nov '99

Hello, There seems to be a bit of fascination with the word 'cunting' lately. If I recall correctly from my early teens, that very word popped up in the lyrics of 'South of Heaven' by heavy-metal heroes Slayer. I think the line went 'Bastard sons begat your cunting daughters' or something like that. It's well known that Struan is an ac/dc fan, perhaps he's a Slayer fan too. Byebye, Ian. ______________________________________________________ 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: tired and unemotional
by Elizabeth Daplyn 16 Nov '99

16 Nov '99

oh what a night (late December 1965) Sorry, just getting confused over which decade it is... Again. Follicle-tingling moment: listening to Tigermilk for the first time in ages, I once again realised why. As the CD player whirred to a start and the first "I-hi was surprised" came drifting over the kitchen table, I was transfixed once again, just like hearing The State I Am In for the first time on Mark Radcliffe in the middle of the night years ago. Gosh. Better than sex? Well, no, obviously not, but an OK substitute which involves less mess. So I had a whale of a time this weekend (includes Friday and Monday) - Friday night I had my arse felt by TWO people - one boy, one girl, neither of them particularly attractive to me. Sheesh. Well, that's what you get for going to a cheesy Dirty Dancing themed bop at college, I suppose. Spent too much time playing I Have Never on Sunday evening. I know far too much about my friends' love-lives now. Courgettes, blecch. SANG! the Carmina Burana last night with a fab big chorus, and that was damn good. I do enjoy a good shriek at the top of my range once in a while. I'm waiting for a review from GlammPammmm of this parish. The aftershow partay was ace as well. Nothing like laughing at a pished conductor - they shout at you for a living. However, 4 hrs sleep start to tell on a girl after a while. I've decided to be a rancid mangy old goat, with eyes as slitty and yellow and scary as can be. Oh yes. So I'll be off to dance around the living room to Steps, then ;P I don't really have a full 2p to spend on the institutionalised indie question (i.e. I can't be arsed to ponder it deeply at the moment - see my comment about 4 hrs sleep above), but I've always enjoyed what I've enjoyed. It seems senseless to feel guilty because you find yourself bopping along to Tina Turner. Disposable, certainly, but worthless, no. After all (metaphor alert), like a cheap razor, when they start to chafe your tender girlie armpits, you can always buy another one. Having said that, I wouldn't advise you to buy Tesco Value ones (10 for 25p), and a proper old-stylee or posh electric one is probably a better investment in the long run. My, how convoluted I'm getting in my old age. Ho hum. Must get back to my video editing: arty films about fluorescent tubes don't make themselves, you know.

Sinister: Bouncy in all the wrong places
by Michael Jones 16 Nov '99

16 Nov '99

At ease, men. Right, I *think* I've got the gist of what Papa Doc Dastoor was on about. Essentially, you *can* fancy girls that are cool enough to listen to Free Design, but be aware that they're airheads. In the long run, you might be better off with the home-spun cliches of Big Star because, and here's the rub, *they* don't fancy you. Well, Chris Bell did, but he's dead. My brain hurts. I for one believe there was a typo in the last B&S diary thing. Struan and his rosy-cheeked compadres were obviously enjoying a game of Seasonal Scrabble - hence the big-scoring "bunting". Ah, bless him - getting all excited about Xmas already. I realise that 'B' and 'C' aren't precisely adjacent on the keyboard, but I expect this can be explained in terms of a 'spasm'. I suspect Struan, rather like Christopher Walken in "The Dead Zone", suffers these spasms rather a lot. As we've established, Mad Dog is a normal sorta chap, much like the rest of us, but what sets him apart are the spasms; it's during these blackouts that his songs appear, as if delivered by pixies. Martin Robinson said something akin to the following: >That is >usually the best thing about CD's as you can be quite careless without >damaging them unlike my warped, scratched vinyl collection. Despite >treasuring the music that is realised through putting these round things >into or on a musical playing device, I still seem to treat them like shit. And Tim Hopkins was shortly after heard to exclaim: "Tha buggar's got moy cows !". I think he means compact discs, kids. Still, *we* have Mr Robinson's Tascam 4-track and I can vouch for his lack of care. Faders full of matted mammal hair, most of the contents of an M&S Ham and Cheese double-pack smeared on the tape-heads... revolting. But, hey, feed it the right material and it makes sweet, sweet soul music. Yes sir. Duty calls... Steady Mike. ===== __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
