by Jygsaw18＠aol.com 16 Sep '99

16 Sep '99

Classic Plant Combinations David Stuart / Hardcover / Published 29 October, 1998 Our Price: £16.00 ~ You Save: £4.00 (20%) (Temporarily out of stock) apparantly that one sold quite briskly.. it's already out of stock. Drug Therapy and the Skin Stuart Maddin MD, et al / Hardcover / Published 1 June, 1999 Our Price: £29.95 (Not Yet Published) Drugs eh? I guess the booze wasn't enough for his desires. Now i know why he burns flies.. the man is addled by LSD! India David Stuart Ryan / Paperback / Published September 1983 Our Price: £10.95 (Special Order) Possibly the missing link between his early work and Ink Polaroids. India, Ink, see the connection? Sticky Remote Pocket Gay Video Guide David Alport, Billy Kolber-Stuart / Paperback / Published April 1998 Our Price: £6.76 ~ You Save: £5.19 (43%) well! i see why he used a pseudonym for this one! not very twee, is it?

Sinister: You Can Leave, But It's Going To Cost You
by PJMiller 16 Sep '99

16 Sep '99

Not only can you pre-order Stuart David's book from Amazon.co.uk, there's also a bit of a write-up about it from the publishers. Apparently Stuart David's a "socially disjointed character" with "mental shackles" who wants nothing more than to "lead a normal life" and meet "Paul the Deacon". Well, that's what I understood anyway. There's also an opportunity for readers to comment on the book without ever having read it. I think we should all give him a bit of a leg-up, Brits style, and make it the most reviewed unpublished book ever. Can somebody at the BBC ( there must be somebody) start campaigning for it to be on "Jackanory"? Preferably with the bloke who used to read the "Littlenose" books doing it. All this talk about the gorgeousness of Scottish accents and no one ever mentions that bloke. Just the sound of his voice used to make me "cream my jeans". Fluffy wrote: About Pedro Juan Gutierrez, Peter Disco, I am thinking of buying his NOVEL, called "King of Havana". If it is a euphemism for his willy, it would be good too. Like "Mr Big" is obviously all about willies too. I'd try and be clever and read Gutierrez in Spanish, but testing my Spanish skills today, I realised I don't know the Spanish for "dick", or "nob", or "smut". I've got it now, it's not about his nob, it's about somebody called Reynardo or something, hence "Rey". But it looks quite rude anyway. It's quite difficult to read, because it's all in colloquialish. In fact, in the story featured in the last issue of Trousercuts "the magazine for free-thinking individuals" there was a sentence that I didn't understand at all. So I made it up. Which gives me an idea. To mark the launch of Trousercuts "better than shagging" issue 3, we could have a competition. All you have to do to stand a chance of winning a fabulous prize that doesn't cost much to post, is look through the story in issue 2 and find the completley made-up sentence. Sister Disco's decision is final. I expect this to be even less popular than Calumn Shearer's poster competition, way back in the days when Belle and Sebastian released records. I quite like Sting. For me, he epitomises the new breed of ethical pop twat. love from, Sister Disco +----------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the reborn Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail "sinister(a)majordomo.net".

Sinister: causes for celebration
by Ian McKinney 16 Sep '99

16 Sep '99

Hello folks, Guess what? Go on, guess! I got a vote on the list crush site! This is the biggest boost to my self-esteem since I won a spelling contest at the age of six! Whoever you are, thank you. The power of B&S is spreading. After weeks of relentlessly forcing my beloved yet suede-obsessed companion to listen to all their recorded output over and over again, she has finally been bitten by the bug - now she's borrowed my Lazy Jane and Modern Rock Song cds and won't give them back... Has anybody ever heard B&S played at a disco/bar/nItEcLuB? If they were what would be the easiest song to dance to? You see, the chap who plays records at the Fab night every second thursday at the Limelight is very willing to play whatever you ask him to (he even played White Rabbit by Jefferson Airplane for me last time - even though it cleared the dancefloor) and he will even play cds that you bring to him yourself. I was thinking it would be a blast to hear B&S played there so I was trying to decide what would be the best song to ask him to play. I was thinking Summer Wasting or LLP Jane. Any other suggestions? Aaaah, only eleven days till I return to the big city and my studies. I'm never staying at home for the summer again. Yours happily, Ian (aka gib) ______________________________________________________ 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: They must think we're born yesterday
by Alan Singfield 16 Sep '99

16 Sep '99

So who's been phoned up with the following question: "Good afternoon Sir. Would you like us to hold on to £420 of your money for six months so you can go to a concert which you don't know the lineup of?" Hmm. Difficult one that. <rant>I don't care if the tickets are going to be more expensive next time</rant>, I could invest that money in the stock market and easily cover the difference. Alternatively, I could spend it on seducing a rich woman and then run off with all her dosh. I probably won't though. What I will do though, is come to the picnic! I don't know what *anyone* looks like, and I haven't got the time or skill to bake two cakes in the shape of a "B" and an "S" (let alone an ampersand), but I'm sure I'll work out something. You'll recognise me by my unusual haircut - I have a shaved head apart from a ginger tuft at the front. Looking forward to meeting all you lovely people!

Sinister: Re: Dreaming of those dancehall days
by Boneboy54＠aol.com 16 Sep '99

16 Sep '99

Ian, How is it I wonder that you have managed to work yourself onto the crush list? Something for me to think about as I remain trapped indoors due to this nasty hurricaine Flloyd! Something to kick your heels up to? If you are interested in getting people to wiggle their bums than I would have to suggest La Pastie de la Bourgoisie or The Boy With the Arab Strap... I have played both at affairs where the dance floor was ripped to shreds with riotous frenzy! What a joy, I must say! The city has issued evacuation notices! And such a pity that my entire family is out at work and school and I have the house to myself...Trapped alone! Am I dreaming? With a full cupboard of rations to get me through the harrowing event, I am a very happy Bone... Yours, everyonesfavoriteBoneboy +----------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the reborn Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail "sinister(a)majordomo.net".

Sinister: Nice tits - now where do you want the blinds?
by Mark Casarotto 16 Sep '99

16 Sep '99

Craig wrote, rather lovelyly I thought, Thanks to the sterling efforts of Trousers, Mark C, and many others a full weekend of activities has been put together to fill the gap that the cancellation of ATP left in our hearts and social calendars. Well done everyone. It's a pleasure. I should quickly add that Sam Norman and David Kitchen all deserve your thanks too - I don't think they've been mentioned yet - and Claire Timmins, whose Pamela-like enthusiasm made it all happen in the first place. In case anyone on the moon or similar has missed our blatant self-promotion, and is in or near London over the weekend (starting tonight (Thursday) at the Betsey), check out this website for details of what's goin' on: http://www.poetrysoc.com/ATP/atp.htm <http://www.poetrysoc.com/ATP/atp.htm> Especially now that TIGERMILKING has been hastily put together on Saturday night, post-picnic - not at the usual venue, however, but Bar Oporto in Covent Garden. 7-12 (the best we could get, sadly), £3/2, go and check the website homiez... Craig then went on to add: I'm quite excited about this but I'm also worried that the shyness monsta might rear it's ugly head and make me chicken out as I really don't know anyone on the list Well...he might hit me for saying this, but if you're shy, just introduce yourself to Marcus, who's one of the friendliest, chattiest people I know (and he always calls you darling - er, well, he always calls me darling, anyway). Alternatively, just sit with everyone and soak up the atmosphere (possibly literally if it does rain, but it's not going to do that, oh no), and then drink a lot - well, not necessarily, but hopefully you'll be made to feel at home and you'll have a good time after all. Another thing that bears mentioning is that we may even have enough people for a footie tournament! We had one at the very first London picnic (I think) and it actually worked, so come on and take on the mighty ersatz Looper lads who covered themselves in, erm, something messy at Bowlie One. There might even be a big fab prize for the winners... (if you do want to play, simply make sure you're on Ally Cook's team and bingo! Gold medals all round) * exactly how to recognise a sinister picnic when you see one (in case the Offspring mailing list also has a Primrose Hill gathering planned for Saturday). Erm, well, historically we've always assembled against the railings immediately outside the exit to Camden Town tube. Look for Erica and her jaunty cravat, Trousers and his trousers, me with the sun glinting/rain bouncing off my shining bald pate, Miss Vicky biting her lip, Marcus having his face eaten...which leads me to the next query: how many upside down B&S badges can someone wear without seeming obsessed. Well, Natasha (who will be tucking into some finest face herself) turned up to a previous bash with all nine badges upside down, and she's the most well-balanced person I can think of - but a word of warning - you're unlikely to go home with as many, as they're pesky buggers and fall of really easily. Final thoughts - Susannah, you have to come. That's all there is to it. And yes, I am an ex-Warwick boy, replete with the fondest of memories. Mmm, Coventry...

Sinister: Master baiter needed

Excuse me. I hate to interrupt your busy picnic-planning day, but is anyone up for a little Hopkins baiting? I could use a dose of Little Timmy's humor, but can't bring myself to paint a bright red bullseye on the Pixies. And don't know if my fingers can actually type anything about Grace Slick being a rock goddess. Can someone help us out a bit? Please?
