Congratulations! Belle & Sebastian would be so >proud! 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. Anyway, I hope a load of new people do join the list, and hope they enjoy it too. We've all had a bloody good laugh for ages and the more the merrier. God forbid us lot ever wind up like the majority of manics fans seem to be. Although I doubt that would be the case, cause even the "old" fans here are a load of pissed up beer monsters.

Yeah, seems that way doesn't it. Or indeed "Thanks for all the time you put in that ultimately benefits us, now fuck off". Bit odd that there are two lists as well, seen as no-one's allowed to create a new web site that contains duplicate information. Oh well, things are changing now. I suppose it was bound to happen. However. On this list we are a bunch of people who are united simply by the act of *being friends*. We aren't trying to sell things to each other, we aren't trying to publicize things (apart from Dr.CB Stride and his real indie night), and we will continue to enjoy ourselves I don't doubt. Take care, Keith. +----------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the reborn Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail "sinister(a)majordomo.net".

Sinister: Guilty admission
by Pamela Hutchinson 02 Mar '99

02 Mar '99

Hello long lost sinister buddies!!! Ok, OK, Imust get something off my chest. You know I love the sweet and lo-fi Belle and Sebastian sound, right? Or I wouldn't be here right? BUT I went to see Belinda Carlisle last night (due to a very strange set of circumstances), and she was F*A*B!!! A shimmering cheeky little pop pixie and no mistake. We were treated to the glamourous Greatest Hits package and several sweet little smiles. Blimey, she looks good for a forty year old an all. I'm not claiming to be a new found Belinda fan, but whooooooo!!! you can't beat a healthy singalong chorus of 'Heaven Is A Place On Earth'. Do you still love me? love pamela xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx 'Live your life, be free' -- xx xx ------------------------------------------------------------ x x x glampam says - 'thank-you for your time' - Look!!

Sinister: When I get stuck in the lift it's always with a toff...
by Jeanette 02 Mar '99

(Honey, are you going to let me get away with this?) Ever felt like an outsider in a world run by rude people with no heart... no soul? Never really been accepted by the "in" crowd? Your ideas, your tastes are a little different than everyone else's, right? I suspect most B&S fans have a lot of these things in common. Too sensitive. Does "being here first" entitle you to treat newcomers the same way you've been treated in the past? I suppose so. And I suppose it makes you feel really good about yourselves to have someone to look down upon. More power to you, I say! I'm sure you've succeeded in chasing away plenty of the "new fans." Congratulations! Belle & Sebastian would be so proud! I've met some wonderful people through this list, and I treasure their friendship. But you elitists can choke on the weeds in your little garden for all I care. jeanette <<look at the new jeepster b&s list this way- "all the brand spanking new fans who we were complaining about having to associate with can now go elsewhere." jeepster is kindly keeping the garden from being overrun.>> +----------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the reborn Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail "sinister(a)majordomo.net".

Sinister: Oh get me away from here...
by Philippe Garnier 02 Mar '99

02 Mar '99

Hello funcky bunnies, I'm glad you all post your favourite belle and sebastian lists. I really like it! Well, not really... in fact I think I have a problem with the concept of doing lists. I have my own kind of list. I called the Bloody Hot List. It is just a 56 pages list of all the CD's I should buy right now! When i remove an item from my BHL, I had 5 new one at the same time. I hate lists. I need you help. Three weeks ago I gave The Boy With The Arab Strap to a girl I like very much. I am so eager to know what she thinks about this music! She have never heard about Belle and Sebastian! What really makes me crazy is that she has not listened the CD yet. 3 long weeks, and she has not listened to it! I'm dying... Oh kids, i need some help. What can I do? Of course i could attach her to the chair and play belle and sebastian, what I am not this kind of boy... I'm in a mess. We have a new guy in the lab. He is from Scotland (yep, a real one, from Dundee), and his name is Philip, which is really disturbing for me. The regular one L, but just one P. Poor boy... maybe I should lend him one of my P's sometimes. Does any scotish listee know him? dave wrote : > i saw placebo last night. very good. and an excellent light show Well done Dave. One of the most wicked comment ever posted to Sinister. I always think that the sinisterees are all sweet, nice and innocent. But it is actually more exciting to believe that some of us are real dumb, that a few of us are sexual maniacs or even worse. Kids are so violent sometimes...

Sinister: Big moles
by Mark Casarotto 02 Mar '99

02 Mar '99

Fluffy Sarah - Chesney Hawkes' skeleton is lurking in your closet, it seems - so that's what happened to the poor pointy-nosed chap. I was once mistaken for Chesney Hawkes, which was odd, though not as odd as the fact that I was standing next to my mate Damian, who looks *exactly* like our Chez, even down to the sizeable face-moles. Curious. Well, as nobody (apart from Chris) has mentioned it yet, Chris Leonard P!O!P!s with the best of them - he certainly had Ms. Vicky swooning, and who wouldn't at a pair of lungs like that. Surely the new-found power of the Brits-winning masses can now push for his addition to the Bowlie bill? Honey, you seem on fine form once more. I have just thought of a particular present I know you'd just love - are you a vegetarian at all? Anyway, thanks again for reinstating things as they used to be - we don't like change here...which brings me onto the Jeepster list. Erm, superfluous, anyone? And I didn't feel at all comfortable at the "the list should be impulsive and current and shouldn't wallow in it's past history" line - I didn't realise we were all wallowing. I also don't think I could manage writing entirely and unswervingly about my favourite band - knowing that the merest slip of tangential ramblings could lead to censure doesn't exactly leave me feeling at ease. Each to their own, I suppose. Well, it's lunchtime, I'm off to have a fox sandwich from Marks and Sparks. Mmm, vulpine....

Sinister: Robin Williamson's natural son
by L. Kerr 02 Mar '99

02 Mar '99

Hi I am glad Chris was good in the Po Caff...I was biting my nails, scared he would be crap, then I would have to stop being his friend. Of course, I have heard his CD, so I should have been reassured. I believe he is performing again on Monday 8th in Strathclyde Uni..? It is nice to have sinister back, even if I do say so myself :) I heard on the radio this morning that the Bowlie event is "kind of retro" oraginsed by "that band Belle and Sebastian". Still not well-known enough to escape a qualifier, even on Radio Scotland. Linda xx (PS if Susannah is on the list and listening, could she mail me?

hello listees!! if anyone is interested, MAYFLY is still my favorite spring-is-just-about-to-come song (and happiely, I'm not 'lovesick on a sunny afternoon' any more, but only incredibly happy&smiley...:)))) we've got +15C here in Vienna (huray!!!) and everyone is just freaking out cause of that........it's funny to think that we all have actually survived the f*** 5 months of cold and winter. Gosh!!! No wonder I started losing my mind.... Something more sunny&funny: If anyone has heard of or even read the book by Helen Fielding 'Brigdet Jones' Diary', I'm just saying : HELLOOO!!! Get it, read it and laugh your mouth off!!! It's hillarious!!!! smiley and happy-to-have-the-list-back-in-her-life *Ana* ______________________________________________________ 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".
