Sinister: Belle & Sebastian in Rolling Stone
by colin thornton 01 Dec '99

I'm not sure if this was mentioned any time recently, but Snow Patrol was likened to Belle & Sebastian (with an attitude complex) in the latest issue of Rolling Stone. I haven't heard Snow Patrol- are they good? According to MTV, they are all the rage over in Ireland (?). Which band member from B&S is in Snow Patrol? I could've sworn I recognised one of them in the MTV interview...

Sinister: suddenly hotdogs became hotcakes
by Poppixxie＠aol.com 01 Dec '99

hello hello everyone...... RANDOM RANTS wow, dragonball z is really really great. it's perhaps one of my favorite television programs. but it's only fun to watch on the midnight run. not nearly as great at five o'clock in the afternoon, but then again what really is. my insomnia has proved completly fruitless and all i can truly accomplish is watching television. last night i watched the hideous station MtV. awful awful awful. however there was a bright spot in this cloud of darkness. yes, it was a program called the twenty five lamest videos and it consisted of one by the artist billy squier. mr. squier proceeded to prance around like a prozac pumped deer wearing pink richard simmons work-out wear tunic, spandex sweat pants and bright whites- keds that is. he did many lewd dance moves which were semi-appropiate for the song was "you turn me on" but they proceeded to pause the video at various groin thrusts. quite scary sounding but in visual incredibly hilarious. CONTENT i work in a vegetarian restaurant in my town and the musical tapes are usually produced by another fabulous waiter. they are usually quite nice but i worked a double on monday and had also worked friday, saturday and sunday so was sick of show tunes and oldies. i lost it about 4 oclock and so decided to sneak one of my own mix tapes in- a tape that just happened to include belle and sebastian's seeing other people ( aMaZing!) and we rule the schoool. as i was walking past one of the tables in another section of the restaurant i heard.....ahem...."blah, blah blah blah belle and sebastian blah" i was so excited that i leaped after the table and pounced all over it. danced and spread sparkling fariy dust throughout the air. the table turned out to be so berry berry pleased with the tape and berry berry cool people as well. grand? indeed! alright, sweet dreams all. and hopefully none of these shall involve belle and sebastian cause all this dream involvement talk really creeps me out. shawnEE +----------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the reborn Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail "sinister(a)majordomo.net".

Sinister: music for girls.
by marie elia 01 Dec '99

hello, darlings! steve c. exclaimed something about my school being closed for the first day of hunting season. this is not true. colleges don't close for those sorts of things. the public schools (high school, elementary schools), however, WERE closed yesterday for hunting season. scary stuff. welcome to western pennsylvania. so i'm ADDICTED to this baxendale song (music for girls). i love it so much that it inspired me to make a whole mix tape just so i could have a place to put it (i have it on a le grand magistery comp cd). and since i have emailed the lovely andreea regarding the Endeavor Formally Known as the U.S. Tape Tree, one of you might be listening to this tape very soon. um, does any english (or u.k. in general?) listee want to send me baxendale records in exchange for money, stickers, candy, mix tapes, etc? this is Blatant list abuse and totally selfish, but it just seems hard for americans to get a hold of the stuff. unless there's something i don't know. in which case you should all scold me and tell me. in that order ;) b&s content... um, massive props to the band b/c without them we wouldn't have this wonderful freaky list of cardie-wearing sex fiends. ("and then she took off her cardigan, and the rest, as they say, is history...") right. i'm going off right now to vote for mark casarotto b/c i have a huge massive list crush on him. oops, now he'll know. how embarrassing. i would vote for erica but she might get the wrong idea. she might think i want to see her naughty bits. which of course i Don't. my act of charity this week is Not sending any bodypart pics to honey. oh stop whining, kids -- it's for yr own good. oh! public shout out to miss lauren tigerxdare who is stressing with schoolwork -- don't worry, dearest! "throw yr homework onto the fire..." take care. xoxo, marie ps. i can't knit, but i crochet! is that cool? ===== ******************************************************* "I was a proper snob in college, as only a future lifetime English major can be" - b. glass "to me she was just marie." -mersault ******************************************************* __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?

Sinister: verily and forsooth

hark, just listen tis true, tis true i spend my time finding proverbs to email to you oops i've come over all medieval, studying middle english is bad for you. but the fact remains that the purpose of this post is to give me an outlet for all the proverbs i have encountered on today's literary adventure, if you don't think you can cope press delete now!!! - to endure, be obscure -respect the stranger - and remain suspicious -the suspense is often worse than the ordeal - if you have nothing to say, say nothing -when we laugh, everyone sees it, when we weep, no-one does -to the extremist, there is no midway between extremes i think thats plenty for now, feel free to ignore / borrow / live by any of these. hey, i didn't make them up. be warned, however, i may plague you with more next time i'm feeling philosophical. for something with a distinct lack of content, this post felt quite relevant. love, jaffa cakes, truth, and beauty, fiona **putting something witty / meaningful here would only defeat the object!!! +----------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the reborn Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail "sinister(a)majordomo.net".

Sinister: Rigging Millenuim Polls for a hobby is OK
by Craig 01 Dec '99

just a quick post-ette to remind everyone of their duty as citizens of the ever-growing, lovely, carefree and happy Sinister Community. This duty is of course to unnaturally influence the outcome of as many online "the greatest blah blah blah of the millennium" type polls as we possibly can. So far the suggestions are: http://www.bbc.co.uk/movies/film99/form.shtml * The common consensus here is to vote for Gregory's Girl. I haven't seen it myself, but it's well worth going to the trouble of voting even if it's just to hear Jonathon (w)Ross trying to pronounce it. But having said that, anything featuring wee Clare Grogan really has got to be good for the soul. And other places as well, which I won't be mentioning least I be required to send the shocking pictures to Honey's bodypart gallery. http://www.nme.com/newsdesk/19991117163652.html The NME poll, voting for a certain Scottish combo is the first thing that springs to mind.... And finally..... http://www.vh1online.co.uk/ Sweaty Jono Coleman's gang also want our carefully considered opinions, I believe there's also prizes to be won here which kinda suggests a possible multiple votes scenario. Well that's it for now, not the most lively post ever but I've just got up and aren't quite firing on all cylinders yet. *Remember if we don't vote - the Robbie Williams fans most certainly will.* Cheerio one and all, Craig xxx ps. Mr Porter - for all your Jaffa cake needs and questions have a quick peek at http://www.jaffacakes.co.uk/ . +----------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the reborn Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail "sinister(a)majordomo.net".
