Sinister: Trembling Blue Stars... much better
by Chris Tunnock 09 Apr '99

09 Apr '99

Dear Listees I have some horrible news to convey... Jason Adolf of Hatboro, PA, in the US gave IYFS one star in a Amizon customer review... "ooooh its not that beautiful" "Trendy Jehovah's Witnessess listen to this band. It is lo-fi music with the potential to be better, but in reality misses the mark. Try Trembling Blue Stars. Much better." I hope no one has mentioned this before because this seems strangely like deja vu... It does not matter since this is a total WANK, pardon my language... I always associated lo-fi with Will Oldham... I do not even know the Trembling Blue Stars... (but can someone tell me what they sound like please) If anyone lives in PA - Pennsylvania or wherever PA is, please do us all a favour and vicariously revisit my juvenile days by egging Adolf.

Sinister: Avoiding litigation
by Nick Dastoor 08 Apr '99

08 Apr '99

Didn't some guy get arrested recently for looking funny at a woman he fancied on a train? Puts a whole different slant on those 'A hidden glance, a forgotten smile' Dateline posters that I find so alluring. Watch out kids. Perhaps everyone who wouldn't object to a bit of public transport flirtation should wear a badge upside down or something, to save confusion. Incidentally, Sebastian, I can't let that Sheffield slagging pass without comment. I love Sheffield. Would anyone else like to start a rival "Lovely things that have happened to me in Sheffield" thread. And I'm not even going to ask for Honey's permission, because I know that since little jon.g's demise, no one will join in anyway. Love to you all, Nicholas ______________________________________________________ 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".

RE: Sinister: Saturday Glasgow Picnic - update
by John Johnston 08 Apr '99

Indeed I did have a cunning breaking-the-ice-polite-conversationwise-are-you-mental excuse to mingle at the Glasgow picnic and everybody proved to be very nice so that it was with great reluctance that I left to get a train, having luckily been in town for my best friend's wedding the day before. At least I got to offer Stuart a cheesy stick.... Which inspired the unreleased verse of Fox in the Snow.. "Boy on the streets Handing out eats You've got twiglets, you've got pop You had a bottle but you let it drop Now it's all fizzy..." I won't be there this time but as at Bowlie I'll be with you in spirit. It'll be great fun and I commend it to the list. xx John > -----Original Message----- > From: L.

Sinister: Saturday Glasgow Picnic - update
by L. Kerr 08 Apr '99

08 Apr '99

Forwarded message from Mistopher Christopher regarding the Saturday Glasgow picnic. In answer to Jygsaw, who posed the frightening question "What do you do at a picnic", the answer is, err, whatever. Last time, we sat around and ate, and then had a wee walk round the hothouses when it started to rain, and then went to the pub. And it was nice. It took about half an hour to actually talk to each other of course, except John Johnstone, who had cunningly had a get-out clause (train to catch) which allowed him to talk to everyone in a charming manner, knowing that he could leave if we all were weird. Which we are not. Not even Stuart Lee, who everyone politely ignored until Chris stole his hat in the pub. And it was nice. Anyway.. ---------------------------------- Fwd message from Sleeka Sounds / Chris Leonard (they are the same) Whoops! What I've done there is give directions to the fountain, goodness knows how I managed to get that idea into my head. Now, it should be the bandstand in Kelvingrove park, not the fountain. The bandstand, you hear. You see why we leave this sort of thing to Keith? Sorry about the delay with this. As soon as I realised I had made a blunder, hotmail broke, and I had no email. Here is a new number 8: 8. Now, if you follow the main path that you are on all the way round you will eventually see the fountain, which is pretty big. But you don't want to go that far - you want to cross the river at the most convient bridge in the park and walk down the right hand side of the park until you see the bandstand. It's pretty big. Just ask someone scary where it is. S o r r y I feel really stupid. I don't think I'll go now, you all hate me because I wear glasses. I might just have my own picinic at the fountain. I think I'll go and eat worms.

Sinister: Saturday Glasgow Picinic
by Sleeka Sounds 08 Apr '99

08 Apr '99

Hello! I thought for those who are coming to the picinic on Saturday I would give some handy directions on how to get to the meet up point (1 O'clock at the fountain in Kelvingrove park). Follow these as if they were instructions. If anyone has a better plan, don't worry about my feelings): 1. Go to Glasgow 2. Get the Underground to Kelvinbridge. If you can't find an underground station, just ask someone in a shop or something. People in shops are usually nice in Glasgow, even if they sound cross and look scary. In fact the scarier the person looks, the nicer they are. 3. At Kelvinbridge Underground leave by the main exit i.e. go up the big escalator to Great Western Road. 4. Turn right and walk smartly to the traffic lights. Do not make eye contact with anyone. 5. Turn right again and you will now be on Park Road. You should be able to see Kelvingrove park from there. There, down at the bottom, do you see? Down there, across the road! 6. Walk down towards the park. You will pass a "world of video" shop on your right hand side, where you can buy rude films at smashing bargain prices. Across the road is a grimy record shop, "the lost chord" in which you can buy second hand wank mags, which you may or may not be able to prise open. I wouldn't know about that. 7. Walk towards the park, and carefully cross Gibson street until you are in the park. There's a smashing beanie baby shop on Gibson street, if you're into that sort of thing. I am! They've got Britannia the bear and everything, but you've got to buy ten others before they sell you that. 8. Now, if you follow the main path that you are on all the way round you will eventually see the fountain, which is pretty big. 9. If you're a girl, I know it's taboo, but remember to pack your sanitary care and bits. I hope that helps. Mail me if you need further assistance, unless of course it's Saturday and you're lost. Because I won't be in. Right, I'll do a proper letter now. I bought that album yesterday, it's much better than I thought it would be. Which is saying nothing, cos it's still gash. I like the song about the tree, and the one which the lady says "caterpillar" in, because I like caterpillars. There's been a lot of hype about trees the last couple of decades, but I still reckon they're alright. But, you know, I'm rather excited that Stuart's middle name is 'Lee'. Because now we can call him 'Stuart Lee Roth', 'Stuart Lee Travis' and 'Murdoch Lee Majors'. Only behind his back, mind.

Sinister: stupendous man saves the day!!!
by Fluffy Sarah 08 Apr '99

08 Apr '99

Hiya kids!! I've just been listening to the hurdy-gurdy Black Sessions on tape (so called because my tape goes "hurdy-gurdy groober-booger most mysterious band in britain hurdy-gurdy" etc) and I must comment on that jolly strange poupee de cire whatever. I even searched the archives cos I didn't pay attention first time round cheers cheers. I found out that the song was originally sun by some french nonce called France Gall (how come theres no woman called England Jones?) but it was written by the surely over-blimmingwell-hyped Serge Gainsbourgh person. Tell me, in the original towards the end of the song, does France SPIT out the "gar_CON!!!!" bit like Issy-Wissy does? Brilliant moment that is. Juan Fransisco: >mmm Milwaukee! Maybe if I met them I could take them for frozen custard or a >bratwurst, ya think? I am SO jealous, I want to eat this scary sounding "frozen custard" hey nonny and as for bratwursts well what more can i say than magical no? Theres a woman who comes into our pub, and orders an apple pie with cold custard every sunday. is frozen custard really just cold custard? Thats lalalalalaamerrrkiiaa for you I supose. ENJOY THE BOG :) Just an odd point, who has had those mini bottle of milk things?? I've seen them in the supermarkt and wandered what they are... Aren't News International bastards? We have to buy for the right to use a picture? Pish, to quote belle and sebastians very own Stud. Stu(art)d(avid) ho ho funny...I'll get me coat. Aawwww but I love Stevie. Just for Wrong Girl. Even though he wore a girlie purple-y shirt. I know that because annoyingly pretty but extremely gormless girl at my college wears one the same. She tries to dress 60's but actually dresses in the style known as blind fashion. As in you don't look what you're putting on YOU FOOL. And yes go and tell Splat if you're going to Bowlie. And answer my question. Which you will find at http://www.majordomo.net/sinister/bowlie.html so there. I'M GOING NOW BYE!!!!!!
