Sinister: Beepsternews: update
by Stuart Gardiner 12 May '99

12 May '99

Belle and Sebastian ------------------- Some confusion appears to have arisen over B&S's next release. We would like to make it clear that the 'Tigermilk' which is to be released on July 12th is NOT a re-release of their first, limited edition album. It is in fact a 3-track single, having as it's lead track the instrumental song of the same name which was played live at Manchester Town Hall in December 1997. Track two on the CD will be another live favourite, 'The Loneliness Of The Middle-Distance Runner'. This would have been released a while ago, but the band couldn't decide on which of the studio mixes they preferred; so there will be 2 different mixes on the CD, one coming out of each speaker, so you'll get a different version by adjusting the balance on your hifi to the left or the right. Track three will be a song called 'Winter Wookie', written by Stuart David to commemorate the UK release of the new Star Wars film. It is the heart-wrenching story of the plight of an 8-foot tall walking, talking ball of hair which has been left by Han Solo to fend for itself for a weekend in late January; and of it's subsequent doomed love affair with a roll of shag-pile carpet. Needless to say, all three songs sound fantastic, and I urge you all to go out and buy 20 copies so we can make more money out of it. It will come in an attractive puce-and-lilac sleeve, featuring a picture of an empty flowerpot on the front for no apparent reason. The single can be pre-ordered for just thirty-six pounds from the Beepster online shop; and will be available in the stores from July 12th (or June 1st from CDNow).

Sinister: holes dug by little moles telephone poles and trolls and foals
by Cynthia Someone 12 May '99

12 May '99

Dear sinister poppets: and Arantxa said: And Tag can dance. This is very good. But I heard that Tag has extremely small feet. I always thought dancers had to have big feet, with long toes, to keep from falling over. and then there't the B& S merchandising thing: I guess it's not that important to me, seeing as I'm the sort of flibbertygibbet that only buys band t-shirts on the way out, after seeing some amazing show, exhilirated and flush-faced and ready to spend *something* in order to express my celebratory mood/frenzied moment/lust. How does that all mix up all together? Must be a music thing. Anyway, the only t-shirt that's lasted me through the years is my battered faded james tshirt circa early nineties ... anyway, the tshirt I would have liked from Jeepster isn't made anymore, I'm sad about that. They were the nicest ones. And about dreams: I think dreams are our personal myths. Dreams can haunt us all their lives. I had a dream 5 years ago, I was a mermaid once, who left the sea and once dry, wanted to find it again, but I couldn't find it, I looked everywhere... and then I spotted a merman, and we went off to look together... it was a beautiful dream. If any of you have dreams that have stayed with you like this you would like to share, please email me privately, I'll put them up on my web site. By the way, I think the best time to listen to new music is in the morning, when one's mind is clear. And then you can get pleasantly startled awake in the best way, the brightest way, if what comes to you is beautiful. Today it was brazilian music, something about "... mente loca ... toca... um momento" etc. and there were two male voices and mostly percussion, if anyone has an idea who it was, I'll give you a bright and shiny nickel.

Sinister: Quick question
by Gary Lawler 12 May '99

12 May '99

Does anyone have that Jeepster mail order form on file? I've decided that I've gone too long without LLPJ and DoW, and that the time has come to get them . . . . and maybe put in an order for Tigermilk while I'm at it. So if anyone has it, could send it along to me? Thanks in advance (I can't seem to find it on the site . . . all that talk of credit cards and secure documents made me afraid, so I ran away). Oh, and group assessment-type interviews where you have to act all cheerful and chatty are horrible, horrible, horrible. Especially if you're not. So I found out today.

Sinister: Re: Well don't get saucy etc etc
by robhalcrow＠lineone.net 12 May '99

Spurred into action by Funky Seb's admonitions and opportunism I'm issuing an invitation for Blake Hamilton and any other Sinister types who might be interested. I live in "Historic Canterbury"TM but on Sunday 16th May I will be in London, Kentish Town to be exact where my band Picturebox are playing at The Bull and Gate. I'll be there from 6pm (soundcheck) onwards and we're not playing till gone 10 so there's enough time for a drink and a friendly chat. There's a market, I do believe, down the road in Camden Lock on Sundays for those springtime bargains. Even if you don't want to hear our nambling pambling indie schmindie ramblings do come along as it would be nice to meet any Sinister people who are in the area.(If you did come through to the stage you'd be face to face with the politest band in Canterbury). Do the upside down badge thang and I'll know who you are. I will probably be wearing a TBWTAS Tshirt. Blake, I love crumpets and "Dishes" is my favourite Pulp song. Who could ask for anything more? Remember: Sundays should be Fundays.

Sinister: Capital is not dead,is it?
by Arantxa Sanz 12 May '99

12 May '99

Here I am with my nowadays rebellious spirit: The radical wing has risen its discontinous flight after Jarko's hush-hush over Jeepster not selling any longer B&S merchandising. If nearly most of you out there were not shopaholics unable to articulate your behaviour apart from the consumism injected straight to your veins by all the possible media, as I am not,you would create your own B&S fashion and be alternative and could start to crop your own carrots and make your own bread and survive with no heating.Hey!All the above is true in my case but the carrots bit and only because my backyard does not offer the proper natural conditions. After some similar experiences in the list ,fearing possible attacks from lacking sense of humour masses, I just state all the above is equally a joke, being myself a walking example of how to survive to the consumer society and spend 90 quid in a red sexy dress purchased at a chain of stores whose treatment of women in its marketing is not particularly fortunate, by the way (Floss, I will never be able to speak German, sorry!) However, it looks a good idea to me.It will stop Belle and Sebastian to be a band who sold more t-shirts than records, as (at least in Spain)it was said about The Smiths... Nick is having dirty dreams.No comment. And I have no sleep.Are we potentially connected??? xxxx Arantxa +----------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the reborn Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail "sinister(a)majordomo.net".

Sinister: more weekend fun?
by Claire Timmins 12 May '99

12 May '99

bowlie bowlie bowlie - ha said it last! How are we all? It's sad how the enthusiasm dies off so quickly. hello to all that I met, although briefly but Keith and Christophe were scaring me with that goddamn machine. Joss was scaring me even more but that was just usual. And Tag can dance. Disappointed as I was with the apparent lack of rock and roll lifestyles (jon Spencer ya woos) I'm glad to see all was rectified in Dublin later. Although I admit I didnt even see B&S, Godspeed kinda wrapped me round all 22 little fingers they had - which was quite a bit more than the others, so they won. Anyway it was fun. It aint ever wearing that hat again though. Other matters. My knowledge of 'fun' is rather limited, in the south of England that is, I know loads of fun things to do up here in Scotland. Why we even found the lyrics/music for 'total eclipse of the heart' on Russia's first Bonnie T's web page. Well I want to know about things in London cause I'll be there soon for a few days. Any info would be of help, especially Harrison Ford's phone number - i heard all the big stars live there. oh thank you all so much, all my lovin' Claire ______________________________________________________ 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: Flaming Lips
by Victoria.Rees＠ft.com 12 May '99

Justin Said: >> I bought a Mercury Rev album (Deserter's Songs) the other day, and although the music is nice and catchy, that voice reminds me too much of the guy from the Flaming Lips. Not only do they sound the same, but Jonathan Donahue from Mercury Rev used to be in the Flaming Lips. Scary!!
