Sinister: you're nobody in this town

>No, fucking right it doesn't entitle anyone to anything. I'd have >hoped we >were past all this stuff but I suppose it's evidently not the case. Maybe >it never will be, but if you're new on this list, then rest assured that >no-one will have a go at you, as there are plenty of us here who've >been on >the list since the very beginning and won't put up with that sort of >behaviour. Ha! Unless you're a fucking idiot. I should know better than anyone. Do you understand the contradiction in saying "we're not entitled to have a go at you just 'cause we're senior" and then turning around and saying "we won't let anyone have a go at you 'cause we're senior"? Just checking. Is it wrong to fall in love only because you haven't in such a long time? Am I kissing my reflection? Every time I fall asleep with Nick Drake on the stereo someone in my family dies. It only happened once but I'm not gonna try it again. -Eran "Vienna is a city of cafes and waltzes.

Sinister: the cartoon

Just a quick response about the animated show, Belle & Sebastian.... It had this giant, fluffy, white, husky dog which I believe was Belle if my memory serves me well. Sebastian was the little boy. I used to watch it when I was seven or so. That's actually how I got into the band. I was the music director at my college radio station and just had to listen to the record (Sinister) when I saw the name! Good thing, too. Just imagine where I'd be if I hadn't. Obviously, it was the most magical record I'd heard come through that shoddy station. warmly nested in an early Byrds marathon, Moon Patroller Carrie +----------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the reborn Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail "sinister(a)majordomo.net".

Sinister: i had a dream
by atremp＠vub.ac.be 04 Mar '99

04 Mar '99

...and a very strange one indeed. i know somebody already mentioned today that he had his first B&S dream but it happened to me too. and i just feel the urge to tell it to you. it started with me sitting on a bench in a park near my home feeling sad because my bedroom had dissapeared. then suddenly isobel appears from nowhere and sits down next to me, asking what is wrong. and i can't say a word and start crying (you know, when you're on the verge of tears and you can hold them back but as soon as someone talks to you, bam, you can't stop them anymore, only this is my dream of course, but that doesn't make any difference). then she starts singing a song that i don't know and stuart m just appears on the other side of the bench. he asks "shall we go?" and i nod. the next moment i'm in a room sitting on a chair and for some reason i just know that i'm in glasgow. isobel and stuart are gone but chris is sitting on the floor eating a milky way and stevie's in a corner looking at me like i'm a freak or something. sara comes in and she starts talking to me but i can't understand a thing, so she goes away. then stuart comes walking in and he's dressed in a yellow mailman suit and he's carrying a scrabble board (the way a waiter walks around with a tray of drinks, you know, in one hand). but he stumbles and all the letters fall from the board. i get down to pick them up and see they're all stuck together in words and i see the word 'elvis'. and then i wake up. i know this sounds like i made it up but that's really what i dreamt. i wanted to tell it to someone but none of my friends really know belle and sebastian (i'm working on it though) so thought i might as well send it you all. i like typing out 'belle and sebastian' in full, instead of B&S, it sounds (well, looks) nicer. i know that the name comes from a book that was made into a tv series but i'm sure that i saw a cartoon version of it when i was a little kid, did anyone else see it or am i being delusional? à bientôt, annie +----------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the reborn Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail "sinister(a)majordomo.net".

None
by Jordi Trenzano Vilar 04 Mar '99

04 Mar '99

Bona nit, sinistres !!! First of all, I?d like to correct something: when I decided to make a B&S I thought it was going to be hard filling 44 pages only with them...... but in the 2nd issue (which will probably be ready the first week after the Bowlie Weekender) i?ll have to add 8 new pages, due to the lack of space. And i?ll change the format of the lyrics section. As you can understand (or not, it depends on all of you) for me it?s not necessary to put a picture of thirty years ago. And I think that I made myself clear talking about those dark tricks which made proud a guy (you can also call him bastard, if Honey allows me) called Franco. However, I agree that the song was much better than Cliff Richard?s one, this guy who was advertising for a "new church" or something similar, some years ago. Howvever, I really appreciate PJ?s help, which has been really neccessary at the time of translating the lyrics into spanish. I warn you, sister Disco, you?ll have to help me again, with the addition of a teacher of english philology, who?s now working at the university of Granada. Fluffy, if you want the zine you can E-Mail me back. Finally, does anyone know a website where you can find the Field Mice?s lyrics ? Bye. Jordiet. Oh, i?ve used my old E-Mail software again. Honey told me that with that new adress nothing bad can happen, but if something goes wrong, all of you excuse my apologies. +----------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the reborn Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail "sinister(a)majordomo.net".

Sinister: The sacred and the profane
by Nick Dastoor 03 Mar '99

03 Mar '99

From: Honey <honey(a)Majordomo.net> >And I honestly don't think Amanda, who I don't know, meant to be >elitist at all - I'm sure she's as fluffy as the rest of us. I took >it as a little joke, and I'm sure that was the meaning. Things look >harsh in courier font sometimes. What looks large from a distance, >close up ain't really that big. So let's not dwell on it. Honey's not wrong about the Courier thing. It can be a terribly fierce font and repeated exposure has even been known to cause piles. However, do not despair of non-proportionality altogether. If your email package lets you change fonts, then I recommend you download Andale Mono (formerly known as monotype.com) from Microsoft (http://www.microsoft.com/typography/fonts) This way even the most dreadful rubbish looks beautiful. Why, only last week I was looking at some particularly noxious neo-nazi propaganda yet found myself filled with an enormous sense of inner peace. All because of Andale Mono. Enough of this Chris Leonard eulogising. I was there and he was rubbish. My cat's called Mittens.
