Sinister: mummy's home
by Honey 02 May '99

02 May '99

Hello everyone - just a quick whisper to tell you I'm now finally doing some updates to the WWW pages, as an excuse to stay inside today and get the feeling back in me legs. So if anyone's not out there on a village green playing hopscotch with nanny, and wants something to do, pop along to the Sinister WWW site to see: o Three new stories by Jessica, Jarkko and Blake in the Sinister Midnight Lending Library http://www.majordomo.net/sinister/library o Two new photo pages: picnics, pubs and conferences - now featuring Sweden: http://www.majordomo.net/sinister/cgi-local/photo.cgi?gallery=picnics concerts - some old stuff made to look as if it's new, David Moore's sheet of "The Kid's Are Alright" lyrics nicked from the Bowlie stage and an aching gap where Bowlie photos will be soon: http://www.majordomo.net/sinister/cgi-local/photo.cgi?gallery=concerts If you have any Bowlie or Dublin pictures, or in fact any B&S concert, picnic or Sinister orgy pictures and would like to show us all, just send them to me, JPG format, and send along a little text to describe them if you want. Just your own photos, not press ones, because we like to keep it in the family don't we? Did anyone send me any that aren't there? If anyone wants to send along some text for the older photos on those two pages too, I'd doff my cap to them as I'm dead busy just now. Finally: stand by in trembling anticipation for the Bowlie setlist scribbles, and the sexiest goddam photo of Mick, Stuart and a Megaphone you've ever seen in your life, courtesy of Sinister photographer Starry Starriness. Did anyone mention that during the session when the band busked with The Megaphone for the queueing masses at Cambers Sands, they played "Maggie May" and "Suspicious Minds"? Probably - I haven't even started to catch up yet and if you've mailed me about listish things, could you bear to tolerate my slowness for a few days? It's 7:30pm and I'm still in bed. honey x P.S. The list is still running in "full-automatic" mode rather than "honey gives it little nudges" mode so people who are used to their mails from alternate mail accounts getting through to the list might be sorely disappointed. Mail me privately and I'll tell you how to make this work without waiting in a queue for me to do it manually. Because I'm fickle and unreliable. Stop press: Starry's sex-god photo is now up on the concert page. Megaphones of Sex. +----------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the reborn Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail "sinister(a)majordomo.net".

Hi! Louise asked: >>What did you think of the Divine Comedy? Well, they were one of the bands I went to Camber for ... And they were definitely worth it! >>And Brian the bassist was wearing my hair slide - he borrowed it just before they went on! Aah, that's nice ... He was looking really sweet with it.

Sinister: Care Bear Stare
by Kara Baer 02 May '99

02 May '99

Hi everybody! I think the weather has finally turned here in Glasgow. It's been so nice, too. Everyone is out and about in the parks turning pink in the sun. I was sitting at my window yesterday, when who should walk by but Sturan himself. So I shouted out my window to him. He came over and shouted back. I asked him about the infamous "guitar smashing incident." All I could get out of him was that the guitar was made in 1962. Rock 'n' Roll! Mr. David Moore queries: > Jarvis Cocker: we bumped into him wearing his mac > after V-Twin finished, having his picture taken with > someone (was that you Care Bear? with a bag slung > over your left shoulder?) Yup, that was me! I haven't been called Care Bear since I was in second grade, though. I used to go home in tears from the taunts. (Not that I'm bitter..) The Amphetameanies played last night at the QM. It was some fun skankin'. I quite fancy their guitarist. You know, the one who dances.. I don't know about the rest of you, but I keep seeing Bowlie people all over Glasgow. We see each other and smile and nod and stop to relive memories. Le sigh...

Hiya Sinister, Just so you know that there's a belle and sebastian Bowlie photo at the below site: http://www.geocities.com/Pentagon/Bunker/6899/latest.htm Unfortunately, it's quite obscure but some of you might be able to spot the back of their heads! There you can also find photos by Mercury Rev, Jon Spencer Blues Explosion and Camera Obscura . . .

Sinister: more bowlie ramblings
by Louise 02 May '99

02 May '99

Dear list A week later and still wearing my wrist band. I have to say it was probably the best weekend ever. Despite the fact that I met no listees at all. I wore my upside-down badge at all times, but I didn't even see any others. I think that whenever any of you saw mine you quickly re-arranged yours so you didn't have to speak to me - boo! Anyhow when Stuart said - 'I think monica's here' I nearly wet my pants, Lazy Line Painter Jane made up for being ignored. What did you think of the Divine Comedy? - I always thought they were a bit dull but they played a really rocky set which was fantastic. And Brian the bassist was wearing my hair slide - he borrowed it just before they went on! I thought Camera Obscura and Mercury Rev were fantastic as well. I'm thinking of doing a B&S night in Brighton maybe in July - kind of like the 200 troubled teenagers thing (Select journalists banned though). Does anyone have the phone no. of the guy called Joe who organised it? I wanted to ask him to come and play some records. I heard the re-mastered version of tigermilk last week. I knew it was going to sound a bit different but it's been tweaked and perfected and sounds absolutely beautiful. I didn't get to see the ground-breaking cover design though - oh well.

Sinister: Sunday's always boring ... (well, it wasn't last week)
by Power15755＠aol.com 02 May '99

02 May '99

Hiya! The mail I sent yesterday came back because of some firewall - whatever that is. I hope this one will reach you. Why are there always so few postings on the weekends when I've got the most time to read? Are you all posting from university/work/school? One more thing about Dublin: >>the band had been in eamon dorans the night before hanging out.. that is without isobel or stuart... Did you know that it was Isobel's birthday on Tuesday? Maybe they were celebrating it together, just the 2 of them. Or maybe not ... Is anyone else worried about Stuart after hearing about that gig? Only 3 days before (was it really only one week ago?) he looked so happy. I hope he's alright. To everyone who's going to the London picnic tomorrow: Have a lot of fun! I wish I could be there.

Sinister: don't call yourself a lover until you've seen my new pants
by jessica 02 May '99

02 May '99

hey ho sinistereees, i was all secretly glowy because i was tied for first on the list crush poll, and then whoosh, i take a peek today and i have no votes. NO VOTES! it's so sad, to go from such a high to such a low. so i do have to promote shamelessly, and recommend that you go to the listcrush page (http://listcrush.future.easyspace.com) and vote for me again. if i make it into the top ten, i'll post a saucy picture on my webpage (http://www.geocities.com/Athens/Styx/3733) . how's that for incentive? because really, it's all about external validation. and smut. such a pathetic level of smut around these parts in the last while, i'm glad to see that bowlie brought that to another level. i've still got mono (it takes ages to go away, doesn't it?) so there will be no kissing for me, even at the pecola/truman's water show on wednesday at the el mocambo. if you're in toronto, you should really go because firstly, it's pecola's last show, and secondly, i'll be there in top form. just look for the girl that looks like me. silly, my photo's on the sinister page if you don't know what i'm talking about. i'm sure i'll remind you about it again, but do feel free to say hello, i am very nice and will only make you sick if i kiss you. which i won't do, since we're strangers. i'll likely be at the front taking photos and pretending that i know everybody. which i very well could, but don't be frightened. i must admit that i haven't ventured out to the record shops here to look for either the looper or the gentle waves albums, but according to my parasol update, gentle waves is $25.50usd. erm, a bit pricey, yes? even though it's isobel, i'm not up to paying $38cdn for a cd that i've heard some iffy things about. did anyone mention the gentle waves thing in the face? it's in the issue with brett anderson on the cover. and looper in dazed and confused? that's right, they get a lovely spread and even their name on the spine. it's issue #53, the one with the goldie drumn'bass supplement. if you want them typed up, just let me know and i'll share with everyone. zubzubzub, i think it's time for another nap. but maybe a popsicle first. mmm, grape. sweetness, 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".
