Sinister: steroids etc.(somewhat on-topic)
by Annie Finkenbinder 25 Apr '99

25 Apr '99

Hello -- I have been getting Sinister mail for a very long time, and I think I've only posted twice. Can't think of anything to say unless asking about tour dates... you know how it is. maybe. Anyway, I am sitting in my dorm room with cinder block walls, heavily drugged due to a sunburn and the following allergic reaction to anti-sunburn itch spray. thus, the steroids, and accompanying jitteriness.. I am never going outside again! not even to swim. this is what I am thinking about: is it a guarantee that a person who is into belle and sebastian will be nice? they seem like a group that would exclusively attract people I will like, but maybe there are some asses, some really irritating people... I don't know. ok now I will remain silent for a few more years, reappearing only when another american tour does. I must apologize for the babbling. it's the body-building drugs. really! -Annie +----------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the reborn Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail "sinister(a)majordomo.net".

Sinister: Have At It With Your Scottish!
by Genevieve Wesley 24 Apr '99

24 Apr '99

Good morning Sinister, I`m very much excited! I now know were Stuart Murdoch came from! no no,dont tell me start off with the usual jokes `well his mummy and daddy loved each other very much`... he came from Murdoch The Stunted! I was watching this video `Scotland And Your Scottish Ancestry` and it was saying how a LONG LONG LONG time ago there was two enemies, Hector and Ian The Toothless. Well Hector put Ian The Toothless in some isolated place,so he wouldn`t be in the company of women and wouldn`t have an heir.One of Hectors maid-servants sent him over,and she was so ugly they didn`t think it possible,but they did---- and Murdoch The Stunted was born! now this history is interesting!Oh..I swear IT,I am going to live in Scotland,it`s so beautiful! It reminds me a lot of quebec actually..I`m so sick of `Upper and Lower Canada` there`s not that much richness,in it being so new,they try and squeeeeze every little un-interesting fact out. But this! Gosh.,aren`t the 90`s so terribly boring! Well this whole century really,I would`ve much preferred to be a princess in the castles and knights and those times. I would of befriended Murdoch The Stunted and we would frolick in the endless fields and mountains and pick wild-flowers.Really,we would. I also learned about the scottish accent,and they showed the `Glasgow` accents, wow thats some fast talking...so OUR Murdoch The Stunted really sounds like that? hee hee hee! to achieve this,you have to talk from under the tongue you know. This list needs more stories like Joss`s and his mums shop! I have to agree...maybe if you wrote something kind of ooh la la on the money,it would get attention,but some people, they will give you candy & money and you just feel more like ``hmmm...im taking his money!`` and especially if its a funny little bearded man,or a funny little boy who gets you to draw strange pictures for him. have fun and bless your little hearts in bowlie! love....genevieve p.s Molly..was that a joke? did you really forget about Bowlie? OH MAN! That is like,the mega mega supremem `D`OH!` if i ever saw it! The `d`oh!` must be echoing all the way to Camber! ah well, these things happen,i have a bad memory too,but its normally i make some juice,and forget about it,and then its left out there type of things. ______________________________________________________ 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: smut (WSB)
by Mark Kolmar 24 Apr '99

24 Apr '99

[ In the spirit of the Monday Poem. Delete now if uninterested. ] You're all at the Bowlie, traffic is slow, and it's time for the late-night Friday literatary moment of education. If you don't know who William S. Burroughs is -- He was one of the century's most significant authors. Much of his work is social analysis and social criticism, in the form of fiction that questions the reality structure through themes of mythology, science fiction, and the underbelly of society. >From William S. Burroughs _The Ticket That Exploded_ "The human organism is literally consisting of two halves from the beginning word and all human sex is this unsanitary arrangement whereby two entities attempt to occupy the same three-dimensional coordinate points giving rise to the sordid lattrine brawls which have characterized a planet based on 'the Word,' that is, on separate flesh engaged in endless sexual conflict -- The Venusian Boy-Girls under Johnny Yen took over the Other Half, imposing a sexual blockade on the planet-- (It will be readily understandable that a program of systematic frustration was necessary in order to sell this crock of sewage as Immortality, the Garden of Delights, and love --" [...] "So let us start with one average, stupid, representative case: Johnny Yen the Other Half, errand boy from the death trauma -- Now look i'm going to say it and i'm going to say it slow -- Death -is- orgasm -is- rebirth -is- death in orgasm -is- their unsanitary Venusian gimmick -is- the whole birth death cycle of action -- You got it? -- Now do you understand who Johnny Yen is? The Boy-Girl Other Half strip tease God of sexual frustration -- Errand boy from the death trauma -- His immortality depends on the mortality of others -- The same is true of -all- addicts -- " [...] >From _Nova Express_ "Word is flesh and word is two that is the human body is compacted of two organisms and where you have two you have word and word is flesh and when they started tampering with the word that was it and the blockade was broken and The Nova Heat moved in -- The Venusians sang first naturally they were in the most immediate danger -- They live underwater in the body with an air line - And that air line is the word - Then the technicians spilled and who can blame them after the conditions I assigned to keep them technicians -- Like three thousand years in hot claws -- So I am alone as always -- You understand nova is where I am born in such pain no one else survives in one peace -- Born again and again cross the wounded galaxies -- I am alone but not what you call 'lonely' -- Loneliness is a product of dual mammalian structure -- 'Loneliness,' 'love,' 'friendship,' all of the rest of it -- I am not two -- I am one -- But to maintain my state of oneness I need two ness in other life forms -- Others must talk so that I am remain silent -- If another becomes one then I am two -- That makes two ones make two and I am no longer one -- Plenty of room in space you say? -- But I am not one in space I am one in time -- Metal time -- Radioactive time -- So of course I tried to keep you all out of space -- That is the end of time -- And those who were allowed out sometimes for special services like creating a useful religious concepts went always with a Venusian guard -- All the 'mystics' and 'saints' -- All except my old enemy Hassan I Sabbah who wised up the marks to space and said they could be one and need no guard no other half no word --" +----------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the reborn Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail "sinister(a)majordomo.net".

Sinister: My Bowlie
by Pamela Hutchinson 24 Apr '99

24 Apr '99

Hello to all the left behind people I'm not at Bowlie cos I've got exams - Anglo-Saxon translation this afternoon. But I'm not bitter, really. In twenty years time I will have amassed enough backstage gossip and and gig reviews to pretend to people that I was. It'll be like Woodstock, or the Isle of Wight! Hey, and if I pass my exams good things might happen to me in the future, sinful chalet-swapping goings on at Camber Sands might be fun at the time, but can they advance my academic career!? OK, so I'm making excuses. I hope all the alter-bowlies go well and Bowlie itself had better be fantastic enough for them to run another one at a more convenient time. Have fun!!! I've been revising listening to lazy Line Painter Jane in order to grab a little portion of the the weekend 'vibe'. Desperate I know. lots of love pamela xxx +----------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the reborn Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail "sinister(a)majordomo.net".

Sinister: OH! It was THIS weekend?
by Molly 23 Apr '99

23 Apr '99

To Whom (if anyone)it may concern: OH GEEEEZ! Bowlie was THIS weekend? OH MAN! I like, had tickets and everything... I thought it was NEXT weekend! uhhhhhh... errrr (I know it was a while ago, but I must defend!) Tim Hopkins broke my heart: >Beck courts imperfection by deliberately leaving out anything >resembling a worthwhile tune from his records. It's a fascinating >cultural phenomenon. I like Beck. A lot. And I'd like to know what specifically you mean when you say "nothing resembling a worthwhile tune". Just how can you not like songs like "Beercan", anyway? And "rowboat" and... and... That isn't what we're here to discuss now, is it? I thought not. So, here we are, with no supervision. And no mail, with most of the list gone away. But I just can't sit around with nothing in my inbox! I heard of some alter-Bowlies happening out there. The ones that aren't happening, that's what I'm talking about. I'm going to have one too. I'm going to skip around in circles if it's nice out and ride my bike... 'cept I don't have a ridable bike. Hmm... I'll ride my horse down the road and be in my own parade. I'll throw breadcrumbs to the birds and come back and dream about it. That won't work either. My horse's name is Fanny and we made a mutual agreement two years ago. I would bring her water and food and play with her in exchange for the understanding that I will not put pieces of metal in her mouth and strap things on her back. She prefers to be lazy and roll around in the dirt. I don't blame her. Dirt can make one very happy. I think I'll probably go to the library and get a nice book to read. Then I'll come back and watch the Road Rules marathon. And finish making bags. I'm making ten bags out of blue and white checked gingham. (or is "checked" part of the definition of gingham?) I'm going to put things in them and give them to nice people. They really are more of pouches than bags. I'm a hell of seamstress. Either that or a seamstress from hell... I think my mom's sewing machine and I are going to come to an agreement similar to the one between Fanny and I before I am done. So that will be my Bowlie. Who needs entertainment anyway? What was that about puppet shows? moving along, molly from mali +----------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the reborn Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail "sinister(a)majordomo.net".

Sinister: IMPORTANT- woo- I'm a catholic schoolboy - hey bruvas
by M223CMellan 23 Apr '99

23 Apr '99

hello, hello, it's good to be back This is a rather important mail. It's me, the irritating bitchy kiddy 16 year old list baby boy of the list. so how are you? I've been quite ill recently, which is very bad, specially as my highers are approaching in just over a week. but hey! - I'll breeze them (I am officially a genius, after all :) ), but in case I don't could any religiously inclined listees please say a prayer for me. Thanks. and I never did get my own message board on the b&s site. poo. cheeky chappy - I mailed the band asking if I could do some artwork for a cd for them, but was told that they like doing their own. I was hurt - is this how they treat their fans? I've decided to keep bugging them, though. perseverance always pays off, eh? I did a painting for them, based on the bible parable which mrs murdoch sent months ago. It was lovely. unlike me. i sometimes feel unlovely, and unlovable, then I think that it's me vs the world. cheery bye byes goo goo baby chris CRYSTALBALLS +----------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the reborn Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail "sinister(a)majordomo.net".

Sinister: Melbourne, rocks... in head
by Craig-Lee Thompson 23 Apr '99

23 Apr '99

Hello, Whilst dancing with Bacardi to the beats of a Belle and Sebastian track, being played at a Smiths/Morrissey tribute night in Melbourne earlier this morning, I had a revelation from the bottom of my glass (and after you hear it i'm sure you will think it came out of my ass). Could it be that the line "she was into SnM and bible studies" has being miss read with the application of a kinky sex under current and actually refers to the fact the lady in question was into The Smiths, Morrissey and bible studies??? I feel this is a significant progression in the debate on lyrical meaning, or I could be just feeling hung-over and due to miss-attribution of my physical state to a mental description I feel significance....

Sinister: B&S - New Years Eve Gathering?
by Justin Williams 22 Apr '99

22 Apr '99

Hello Everyone, This is my first extended post to the list, but hopefully I can be taken seriously about a proposition I have. I have posted a query similar to this on the Trash Can Sinatras list because I'm hoping to start a collaborative effort. I know this is just a dream right now but would it be conceivable to have a B&S fan gathering on New Year's Eve '99? Ideally, I would like to have both TCS and B&S fans there, but I am unsure of the number of people who actually like both bands. It seems like a given to me, but you never know. As I said to the TCS list, it would be preferable not to hold it in New York City or any other major city due to the crowds that will already be there, and I know many B&S fans live outside the states but for convenience maybe there can be a gathering in Europe and in the states. I'm hoping that someone on both lists who has more influence and "seniority" than I will help organize this, but again I am still only dreaming as of right now. B&S and TCS fans are the only people that I sincerely love without having met them. It doesn't matter to me the personalities or appearances of any of them, the love I feel is unconditional. If only this thing can come to pass, I would not know a higher joy =P. Well, that may be a bit much but for the most part I mean it. Toss the subject around and hopefully we can make this happen. If anyone knows about a similar New Year's Eve gathering already in the making I would like to hear about that too. Cheers, Justin W Felonius Monk +----------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the reborn Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail "sinister(a)majordomo.net".
