Sinister: can you believe that jessica has an opinion?
by jessica 23 May '99

23 May '99

hi sinisterkids, things have been pretty heavy on this list lately, as is wont to happen from time to time. and i'm going to do what i've done since first subscribing - breathe through it and let it pass. i don't like to add fuel to the fire, as i know certain disagreements have no happy resolution and i see no need to be caught in malicious crossfire. anyone that has bothered to pay attention to me over the last two years or so will know that i run and hide whenever anything controversial comes up. and although this is a touchy subject, i want to stick up for the list publicly and say that i'm not trying to negate the feelings of anyone that feels sinister doesn't fit into their lives anymore. but i'd also like to say that some great things have happened to me because of this list, that i've met wonderful people here and had my heartstrings pulled by touching posts more than once. i like that this list is moderated, that someone is there to herd us in when we're running in traffic. i like the job honey has done and is doing. like all things in the world, this list runs in cycles of great and not-so-great, and although i can see that a change has happened i would also like to be idealistic and say that things will get better. and they will, i think, if people who would like to be nasty would either bugger off or else learn how to put things constructively and provocatively. mud slinging just makes everyone dirty. this is not to condemn those who feel it necessary to unsubscribe, whether temporarily or permanently, when things get bad. i've had to delete so darn many posts related to iain's silly comments that my delete finger is sore and i have wondered what has happened to everyone's love affair with sinister. the reason i stay is because i love hearing bits of other people's lives, not always belle and sebastian-related but always underwritten with the knowledge that there exists a commonality, and often underwritten with the need for an accepting community, which is the main purpose for this list, i think. whether or not this list is formally a belle and sebastian list doesn't distract from the fact that it's full of a whole bunch of nice people who, on the whole, are supportive of others' genuine efforts and take pleasure in little things. andrew skilton wrote: >interesting that, considering how long the rules for posting (cunningly and >somewhat misleadingly referred to as the "FAQ") are, they fail to mention >probably the singularly most important thing about the list - that we're all >being watched and commented on all of the time. i've got news for everyone (except andrew, i suppose, since he's unsubscribed in a fit of apparent impatience): if you think you could ever be on a list where list happenings are not discussed in some way or another outside of the list, you're veryvery mistaken and i wonder why you expect to be notified of every conversation or sub-group that's developed because of the main list. a natural progression of sinister is that groups of friends have developed, and if they've developed because of sinister then it's quite likely that they'll be discussing all of us at one point or another. or some of us, anyhow. it seems childish and naive to me to believe that everyone who talks about the list, even if it's honey or other "list elders" or whatever, would see fit to include everyone else. if that's what you really want, go to the newsgroup. but i bet it will even happen there. i've likely been overly redundant here, and perhaps offensive or patronizing. and i'm sure even boring to most of you. but it occurred to me that i've never really mentioned why this list is important to me, and this seemed like as good a time as any to bring it up. thanks for listening, jessicaxo * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * someone had spied on us, i suppose, as we sat beside the canal and ate the sandwiches, drinking not even orangeade or coca-cola but hot milk out of a thermos. * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * t i n y s t a r @ w o r l d y . c o m (it's lovely being a girl) +----------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the reborn Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail "sinister(a)majordomo.net".

Sinister: Have Me, I'm a Love Albatross!
by PJMiller 23 May '99

23 May '99

SOS? Never heard of it mate. And the thought of a ruling clique without Sister Disco is frankly ridiculous, like a meal without cheese, or the World Trade Organisation without China. A list about a list? Pah! Next thing we know FunkySeb will be trying to convince us that there was even a short-lived list about the list about the list! If loving Paul is wrong, I don't want to be right. The only reason Paul runs the list is because he's got a FUCKING HUGE COMPUTER, so if we're going to start electing list owners, could all the people with FUCKING HUGE COMPUTERs please take one step forward? So that's that decided then, Paul runs the list. Good, I've always liked his style, firm but fair. Mess with Paul, you mess with Sister Disco. SO CLUNK-CLICK! Is it true that the Sinister "nursery" is really Paul's casting couch? This evening I finally got to see Mister Olazabal's civic reception. His smile roughly matched the inverse parabola of a deft chip out of the bunker. He's my kind of guy. I told him what's been going on on the list since the Brits "win" and he said if you don't start behaving yourselves he's going to come round and personally shove a nine iron up all of your arses, as a personal favour to me, Sister Disco. So be warned. "Sister Disco," he said in a Henry Cooper voice, brandishing his putter, "tell me who you think's behind this business, and I'll show them the meaning of a hole-in-one!" I said I'd think about it and phone him later. "I'll give them a double bogey they'll never forget!" he whispered menacingly. "I'll rake their bunker! I'll replace their divots!" he screamed, now plainly delerious. I withdrew to the study. I think FunkySeb's just trying to upstage the new "Star Wars" film premiere. Either that or he wants a recording contract with Jeepster. I used to post to the list even more often than I do nowadays, but it isn't because I spend all my time posting to SOS. Because I've never heard of it. It's because a) I'm busy b) I'm Strobe Talbot c) There are now 1100 people on the list and it's difiicult to justify telling them all about the films you've seen, unless there was a character in it who resembled a prominent listee. The other day I went to the pictures and it was a film and it was good and it was "West Beirut" and Stephen Trousers was in it, playing the part of a dog owner in a green jumper. Even FunkySeb's ill-tempered outburst could not spoil the pleasure of seeing Northy back on the list. Welcome back Northy! increase the peace, motherfuckers Sister Disco +----------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the reborn Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail "sinister(a)majordomo.net".

Sinister: for this bank holiday weekend london picnic hobby you will need...
by pamela berry 23 May '99

23 May '99

hi everyone! sister miller said: [There are now 1100 people on the list and it's difficult to justify telling them all about the films you've seen, unless there was a character in it who resembled a prominent listee.] seen "the odessa file"? I just watched it on tv a coupla weeks ago. it was on in the middle of the night, possibly adding unnecessary spooky effect to the fact that john voigt's lovable rogue spyguy character is named peter miller. I can't get my head around it, in my sexy dream about mr. miller just days before that, he wasn't a blonde at all. not a natural one, I mean. the following message probably won't mean beans to people very far away from london, for that I apologize, delete at will! the next uk bank holiday draws ever closer, and as no one has put in a suggestion for the next london picnic, mike and I would like to entreat the picnic powers that be to make it happen in lovely greenwich on sunday, one week from today! my first sinister picnic ever after I moved here was in greenwich, and lovely it was indeed. ooooooon was there! if she can get to greenwich from thailand, it can't be so much trouble for everyone else, right? there's an antique/junk/cd market on sunday afternoons and greenwich has a picnic-ready ginormous park. MARVEL at the view over the thames! CURSE the butt-ugliness of the millennium dome in the distance! THRILL at the ability to stand astride the meridian with one foot in either hemisphere! LAZE AROUND drinking and chowing and napping and yapping safe in the knowledge that if it starts pissing down rain everyone can come to our flat nearby for fruity cocktails! roving mr. whippy trucks? got 'em. pubs? got 'em, lots of them. anyway, greenwich is only 12 minutes by rail from london bridge, 16 from charing cross, let's meet at the greenwich station at 2pm-ish on sunday, what do you say? everybody but everybody is welcome, please do come, even if you've never met fellow sinisterinos, and bring friends and neighbors. but not our neighbors, they're still mad at us for the last, er, quiet gathering we had. drop me a line privately or see the meeting board at http://www.belleandsebastian.co.uk/cgi-bin/mboard/belle/thread.cgi?212,0 for more details! at the risk of sounding (more like) like a dorkwad walking sandwich board for the greenwich tourist office, this friday I've set up a show at the church hall behind st. alfege's, greenwich town center. I mention it here because in addition to the windmills and jasmine minks, some sinisterines will be taking the stage, including one of paul's new young things in the sinister nursery! you might have seen him playing with sir trousers at the betsey trotwood do. there's no license to sell that demon alcohol at the church hall I'm afraid, so it's bring your own bottle. be it weak lemonade or coldest beer, I quite like the idea of seeing a bunch of biscuit-nibblers stumbling around and drinking out of brown paper bags. almost as much as I enjoyed walking by the "cats" theatre in covent garden a couple of weeks ago to be greeted by the sight of a couple of clowns passed out cold in the lobby, orange and green wigs askew, lobby guy trying desperately to get them out of there before the show. aren't clowns just the best? anyway, more church show info on the meeting board at http://www.belleandsebastian.co.uk/cgi-bin/mboard/belle/thread.cgi?213,0 susannah said: [Escort girls, right, do they actually have to have sex? or is it just taking old men to the opera and listening to them moaning about their wives? Thing is you get loads more money if you actually 'do' it, so if you take them out, and they turn out to be 'alright' then why not?] at the risk of sending some members of this list spiralling into a black hole of fantasy and wishful thinking from which there is little chance of return, may I suggest susannah that before you jump into the escort game you consider becoming a dominatrix instead? there are apparently boatloads of moulah to be had, you can be the boss (and how), there's no pesky conservative business lunch attire, and no actual doing it. e-bay habits such as yours around the world have probably been subsidized this way. thanks for that image of ewan mcgregor and the wiping and the curtains in the toilet, that picture will stick (ho!) probably as long as the scarring harvey williams image from fluffy sarah a while back. speaking of the harvey, I'm with lucy, harvey was good the other night, and I think his new album's ace. xopam +----------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the reborn Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail "sinister(a)majordomo.net".

Mr Moore AKA John Peel posted this teaser. <<A prize to anyone who tells me the catalogue number of the record my subject was on :) if i am not mistaken, this will be The Jam song from This is the modern world - catologue number 5374182. a fine record if ever i heard one. as a side issue, i would just like to say that i always thought that there was teh equivilent of an SoS list around here. Are your posts not meant to provoke thought between people ?? surely that is one of the reasons for having the sinister chat room.

Sinister: Here Comes The Weekend
by David Moore 23 May '99

23 May '99

Hi Fluffy Bunnies, Great silflay weather in the garden today. Another reason to like weekends (particularly this one) is that I only have to read one digest a day, unlike Black Friday when I had to read five. I apologise to the listmeister for posting about the list, which is of course forbidden in the listroolz, but I just have to say that Honey is my hero, because anyone who can tend the Sinister garden as well as he does despite all the different styles, seasons, horticultural theories and the GM pollen blowing in from the International corporation next door IS a hero. How he does this despite his poor health is an amazement to me: I know if I tried to do it, firstly my equipment wouldn't measure up to the job :) , and secondly I couldn't do it on my own, & I'd probably have to enlist the opinion of a few of my trusted mates in order to sound out opinion & test a few of my feelings out on them. If I am under the weather I generally value external validation of my decisions 'cos my self confidence can get low also. I know that it would be an unrealistic expectation for all in the Sinister garden to always be sunny & pretty, but I trust all those who have deliberately danced for the storm clouds are thoroughly ashamed of themselves if they have in any way caused someone very important to us all to have become iller than they need to be. Since the late lamented demise of the jeepsterlist there is only one mailing list for us B&S loving guys'n'gals, so can we please look after it? Sort of B&S related (via the Bowlie): Mercury Rev are doing a J Peel (that bloke who keeps being mistaken for me) session on Tuesday & the Delgados are also, on Wednesday. Any Jeepster people reading this please cover your ears now: I was listening to a tape of B&S' Bowlie gig recently, and before Photo Jenny Isobel has severe technical problems (the strap comes off her bass) and Stuart M makes mention of it (the strap). Some wag in the audience then calls out "Is that an Arab Strap?" & he replies "No, just a normal one". Witty repartee as well as fantastic music & a thrilling atmosphere. I would of course be willing to part with cash for any official release, album or video (in case you're listening anyway :) ) A prize to anyone who tells me the catalogue number of the record my subject was on :) Yours waggily, Keep the peace, David Moore Chelmsford, UK +----------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the reborn Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail "sinister(a)majordomo.net".

..just going to say that somehow, I got a mail who said that this(look at the end of this mail) mail hadn`t got through, but I can see now that it did.. and that`s why I have expressed a need for people sending tapes twice..I`m sorry, did not mean to seem desperate, it`s just that when I wrote the second mail, I didn`t think this had gone through the system, in fact i was pleased it didn`t, because I really shouldn`t have sent it to the list at all.

Sinister: tapes and aeroplanes
by Marianne Bratlie 23 May '99

23 May '99

hi.. Today i found an add in the paper, with a great glasgow aerop.-ticket offer, really cheap, and I`m planning to go with some of my friends. The reason why I`m mailing you, is to ask if there is something special going on in the period 28.6-15.8..? Any future belle gigs etc?(so I can decide when it`s best to go..) Another question, does anyone have any live gigs on tape that I can copy? (B&S) They sent a recording from a gig in Paris on the radio here at the 16th, I made earth and heaven move to get someone to tape it for me, since 17th is our national day, and we all go out partying the 16th to celebrate..none of my friends or I were home to tape it. I finally got my parents to do it, after explaining carefully how to, and when I came home at night, the 16th, merry and so ready for b and S, it turned out that at just this particular day, the show started one hour earlyer than usual... But at least I got 4-5 songs, only missed one hour..(this last sentence is expressed with some bitterness..) So, I hope some of you feel a bit sorry for me, and e-mail me to say "yes, I will sent you a copy of the....gig..in.. with belle and sebastian" I can send you something in return, for instance 4-5 songs from a gig in Paris.........he... he ...or, tigermilk, or something else...

Sinister: return to sender?
by alex tobin 23 May '99

23 May '99

After sitting here for quite a while now, mostly shaking my head in disbelief as some people find it appropriate to tear each other apart, I just want to say one or two things as well. What the hell, eh? Everyone has an opinion... Just please keep in mind that I am now only speaking for myself. I love music. It makes me feel good. Sometimes it makes me yearn for days long-gone. Sometimes it evokes old and painful memories, and my mood evolves into a state of minor melancholy or pure kitschy sentimentality. But music is good. It is powerful. I love Belle and Sebastian's music. As with many people on this list, B&S often remind me of sunny afternoons - often reproduced a bit in the late 90s at Sinister picnics or by Tim Hopkins-lookalikes at Bowlie's bars - when things seemed just a bit less complicated and drab. Belle and Sebastian are anything but chart-breakers here in Holland. Most people listen to completely different music; some of them have taste (in my eyes), some of them don't. Surely it can't be a coincidence that the Vengaboys are from Holland. I have many friends who listen to - shall we call it this? - 'crap' music. I still love them dearly. I indulge their poor taste and have found myself at parties and gatherings serenaded by the bloody Spice Girls. Alright, so shit happens... They're still my friends. Even if I don't repect their personal, individual taste, I still respect them as a person. We on this list - at least most of us - like B&S music. Otherwise we probably wouldn't have joined up in the first place, regardless of what things mutate into. But Christ! - Grow up, some of you! There is more to life than music. I often find myself lurking here when talk is of bands I have never heard of, much less never will. Sometimes it makes me feel stupid; sometimes I couldn't care less. Sometimes - in hours of need - music plays a bigger role in my life; sometimes I've had it with music altogether. I wasn't able to come to Bowlie, but was still more than happy to hear that other people had a lovely time. I have just started my own mailing list (http://www.popjourno.com) I'm not doing this to start arguments with people. I'm not doing this for me wgo, to be an all powerfull list mummy. I'm doing it because I feel passionate about certain things, and I would love to share my experiences with other people who might think similarly. I might not agree with someone's tastes. I might not like certain people. When Paul set up Sinister, I doubt very much that he wanted it to turn into a battleground for certain people's unchangeable viewpoints. I can't speak for him, but I am certain that he also wanted to provide a forum for people to come together, get to know one another, and share good and bad times in their lives, with - as a common point - appreciation of a certain type of music. Well, I'm rambling, but what I want to say is that Sinister is much like TV. If you don't like the channel, switch it. Unsubscribe. Do whatever you have to do. Whatver makes you feel better. I won't blame you for it. It's your choice. But - please, can we just act like adults, which most of us are? I mean, I could sit here, spouting off about how I saw Morrissey at a gig a while back, and he was fat and bald. What's the point? Am I going to deny other people's memories and fondness of a particular artist or deride their own viewpoint? A while back, due to my extreme shyness, I often found myself hiding behind a facade of cynicism and often sarcasm. i was never good at sports, and this was my way of showing people how bloody clever I could be. I grew up. It doesn't work. It doesn't. Think about it. Sorry for the rambling here and for the kindergarten-type of lecturing, but even I - as a lurker of sorts - have had enough at the moment. I'll probably regret writing this very very soon, so I'll hit 'send' now and suffer the consequences.

Sinister: "It�s childish and it�s silly / but I think it�s you, in my room by the bed..."
by Jordi Trenzano i Vilar 23 May '99

23 May '99

Hi: IŽm listening now to "Late night, Maudlin Street" the best song that Morrissey has ever made since The Smiths disbanded. I forgot to post yesterday about his birthday. We should help him now that heŽs going to lose all (?) of his money. My post from the last friday was maybe too dramatic, as I was having an awful headache. Now I feel better. Luckily, we had the great genius of mr Pedro José Miller for stopping this topic at the right point. He seemed to be a bit angry because he was left outside the SOS, and maybe heŽs preparing a "coup dŽetat" (is it the right expression ?) for beating Paul. I wouldnŽt sleep in peace if I was you, "mummy"... IŽm making (again) a desperate request for a tape of the Bowlie gig. The NY gig is my best offer to trade.

Sinister: little Rosa
by The Narrow Wizard 23 May '99

23 May '99

Damon said THE (PLEASE CLOSE YOUR EYES ALL YOU KIDDIES) FUCKIN CUNT!!! He's one of those punters who gets life easy when they're wankers. (ermm I corrected the spelling and grammar...I think this is what damon was getting at) Must say that I too dislike these people, I was unfortunate enough to run into one the other day. I was visiting my friend Lesley...lending her some CD's 'cos she had a DJing audition the next day and then her boyfriend came round. I have never met such a cunt in my life! He refused to speak while I was there and just kept glaring at me, he only stopped doing this to occaisionally give accusatory looks to Lesley for having a guy in her room. Needless to say I left pretty quickly after that. Anyway as I was leaving Lesley said "Oh take this you've got to hear it" and she gave me a CD. When I got back I put the CD on 'cos I trust her taste in music (it was Lesley who gave me a copy of tigermilk when I first met her and I'd been going mad trying to get one) and I found a song on the album called Little Rosa which I thought was very Belle and Sebastionesque so I thought I'd let you all see the lyrics to see if you agree with me. little rosa was gonna shine. little rosa had a real bad time. she was not like anyone else. she never will. little rosa, the boys let her know that she's just not that way, she dont put on a show for nobody. not even you. she's gonna sit alone. why would you make her feel so small that she'd just dissappear? The albums by Letters to Cleo and it's called Wholesale Meats and Fish and I reccomend it 'cos the girl who sings has this really great voice and there's quite a few good songs on it. On the subject of recomendations I think you should all read "the wind-up-bird chronicle" by Haruki Murakami and "underworld" by Don DeLilo cos they are both really interesting and very very well written. Well thats all from me you can all breath a colective sigh of relief now. have a good one owen With that the narrow wizard waggled his bushy eyebrows and disappeared in a flash of blue flame leaving behind only a faint smell of cinnamon +----------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the reborn Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail "sinister(a)majordomo.net".
