general stuff, not much of it about b&s > Apologies twice. Firstly about the duff gen about The Flaming Lips, it was > of course The Flaming Stars on John Peel on Tuesday night. BUT the flaming lips are in session this coming wednesday night. don't know if it's a repeat or not though. > Secondly, for the message about Roger Daltrey being on the Bill in June: > its actually tonight, & yes, I will record it for Mr Miller :) stranger than roger daltrey on 'the bill' had to be brian may on 'the sky at night' a couple of weeks ago, talking to good old patrick moore about the upcoming eclipse. > In answer to Genevieve's post about what happens to naked pictures in photo > shops, a friend of mine works at Black's photo shop... > Naked pictures, I believe, are not > okay and either are pictures of, how can I put this, people having sex: they > are considered pornography and cannot be reproduced as it goes against > Canadian legislation ( or something to that effect). i know someone who worked at kodak here in the uk and they had to not only confiscate the pictures but record the names and addresses involved for passing on to the police. sounds very gary glittery. so, yes, buy a polaroid or a digital camera. next time i move house the change of address cards are all going to be in the style of those prostitute cards you see in london phone boxes 8) um, that's probably not wise - what if they fall into the wrong hands? pete miller (no! we will not let you go...) > Paul believes that Mars is irrigated by a complex system of > underground sprinklers operated by The Clangers on acid. i've been religiously taping the episodes of the clangers they've been repeated late at nights on channel 4 and i get within 4 episodes of a complete set and they go and release them all on video. arse. still, it's kinda good cos i missed series 1 episode 13 in which "The Clangers suffer from a shortage of consumer goods, but they prefer life that way." (which i think is the one with the machine that churns out plastic stuff until the cave fills up). Pete Ramsdale: > Does anyone else think that ER cements the comparisons > between B&S and the Field Mice?? but missing the moon was great and ER, er, isn't. oh, and that live version of 'in a nutshell' that someone has is probably from the manchester gigs (sunday night) rather than the night in glasgow when they did 5 covers or else recordings of the other 4 covers would be out there and i've not come across any (whereas i know that manchester tapes exist) and there's another song mentioned on the back (yes, 'on the back', not 'in the cd booklet' but 'on the back') of tigermilk. "Belle's most recent song is called Rag Day. Sebastian's is called The Fox In The Snow" handle in handle, andy johan, i sent the md back this morning +----------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the reborn Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail "sinister(a)majordomo.net".

Sinister: More musings on life in the slow lane
by Stuart Gardiner 23 Jul '99

23 Jul '99

Well I can't think of any songs with my name in, but Mrs Murdoch (formerly of this parish) did name her son after me... So did anyone actually go to this picnic yesterday then? I haven't seen any reports yet... I was going to go, but I decided I'm too poor. I'm also now officially unemployed, I got my P45 this morning. Although it didn't stop me going to a gig the other night, by a wonderful band called 'The Frames'. They sound a bit like Superstar at times, and at other times like anything from Mercury Rev to Nirvana. And they're almost completely indescribable, which has got to be a good thing, right? Out of the 40-or-so people who'd paid to see them, at least a quarter were queueing up at the end to buy a CD off the singer. Despite the fact that their drummer hadn't made it to the gig, so their driver played instead (remarkably well as it happened). Check them out... (I think they're playing London next week sometime). One other thing that's been bugging me. In our local friendly supermarket, they have brand spanking new electronic tills. And when one of them is not in use, a message scrolls accross from one side to the other: 'Goodbye hope to see you again'. All very welcoming, I'm sure you'll agree. Except that whenever I'm feeling a bit miserable and lonely (eg a couple of hours after being dumped not that long ago), all I see when I look up is 3 or 4 tills bearing the message 'Goodbye hope'... Big Stu (Shocked by the amount of money he's having to pay for an Australian visa...) ______________________________________________________ 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: tomorrow's weather
by Marcus Omond 23 Jul '99

23 Jul '99

hi there, Oon said: i hope you can stomach another Thai news report. Bangkok Post last last Sunday(i'm busy) says that in Czech Tv "Nova Tv" there's this amazing weather show. amazing because the weather girl/boy will be smiling nakedly at the viewer while an announcer tells the viewers about the weather. then the weather girl/boy will start to put on cloth according to the forecast weather. apparently to show viewer who might not know what clothes is appropriate for such and such weather. what a thoughtful and nifty idea. it also says their rating goes up the roof. well done. indeed, this is true. every day (well, more night) at around ten thirty you can watch the pocasicko (pronounced pochaseechko) (i think that's what it's called but i'm hungover and i've forgotten my czech), literally translated as 'little/ dear weather'. this involves porn film music while a starkers girl/ boy comes on and rather than doing the usual porn thing of taking off clothes seductively she/ he puts them on. you can tell when it's about to be on because czech tv isn't very sophisticated, and so when a film gets cut off halfway through the credits and adverts for those phone lines that i honestly can't believe anyone calls (does anyone?) start to play you know that it's not too long until the weather. and it's at a very convenient time, because you can watch it just before you go out for the night. but sometimes they put on a badly dubbed porn film instead, and that's not so good - czech isn't the sexiest of languages. 'pocasicko' is quite a fun idea, but i can't imagine it working with the british weather forecast - who wants to see michael fish naked? ulrika jonson used to be a weathergirl, didn't she? that wouldn't have been so bad. oh, my favorite pocasicko girl was called vera. which reminds me of the girl in prague called vera who wanted me to marry her in a rush to save her from being deported. but that's another story... ok, that's the smuttiest post i've done, so i'm blushing now. back to bed, i think, to nurse last night's excesses. 'never again' again. thinking it's a sin that i have to leave the house at all (but we need some milk), Marcus XXX ______________________________________________________ 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: I'm so Pretty, didn't you hear?
by Graham MacArthur 23 Jul '99

23 Jul '99

Darling(s), > I have to agree whole-heartedly with this assertation about erica's list > pic; in fact I think the blurryness(?) of the picture makes her even more > attractive - ,ysterious or something. Who knows... Like Shania Twain, that don't impress me much. She's a proper minx, you know. She wears a full length animal print coat *in the dessert*, complete with gloves and high collar. I'm going to have to get a more realistic photo - or else clock the next person that writes to the list saying how great I am. Listen up! I'm not, there will NOT be a throne built for me at the next picnic. I don't glow. I have split ends. I never take my library books back on time. I break hearts. I squeeze the toothpaste from the middle and never do my chores. You hear me? Now stop all this nonsense. Meet me in person, I'll do my Loyd Grossman impression and I promise never again will the words "beauty" and "Erica" be used in the same sentence. No, 12 Reasons Why by My Life Story was NOT written about me. (though wouldn't that be super). Talking of meeting me in person, you shall all be coming to the fucking-great-big picnic on the 31st of July on primrose hill. No, it wasn't a question. See the light! vote for Geoff, god damn! he's such a pretty thing..

by Honor Fraser 23 Jul '99

23 Jul '99

Hello babies I'm a new lass on this list and I must say I'm loving every minute of it.Hope you guys liked the little cute card I sent ya:):) Just a token of appreciation There's just such a community here that you don't get in the real world- it really does warm the cockles of my heart. This is just a short hi-de-ho posting and also a burning question that unfortunately is not B&S related (well only distantly really- sorry 'bout that). What does anyone know about the Tindersticks' Black Sessions? Oooh look at the time, see you later sugarplums Honor Tennant ______________________________________________________ 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".

>could he be called mark blair DORFMAN casarotto? >or mark blair DAVIDHARE casarotto? >Both very cool, but slightly unusual >I give up I don't. I go for Mark Blair DARIOFO Casarotto. Or could it be Mark Blair DYLANTHOMAS Casarotto, if he counts. 'Nikki's superiors' indeed. Tsk Arantxza - you have just been docked several points on my 'who's best on Sinister' scoring chart. It's like a crush tally only more complex algorithms are involved. If you're not careful I may stop calling you the lovely Arantxa. Talking of luvverly gurls, erica's photo isn't really completely out of focus to flatter her or anything - she really is all blurry. Oh, that's in a Woody Allen film, isn't it? I am working for my inferiors again on Saturday, so will miss another picnic. Has anyone got a mobile phone I can ring to find out where everyone is at about 6 o clock? I would get one myself, but I fear I would be unable to overcome a childish urge just to shout 'BUY! BUY! SELL!' down it all the time.
