Sinister: driving swallowing dramamine
by marie elia 09 Sep '99

09 Sep '99

ay, hello yous. it's been a while for me... i've been in transition, what with going back to school, etc -- and of course missing the nyc picnic by about a week! but now i am happily ensconced in my apartment with miss KIMberly and loving it (kiss kiss, dear!). --- ian <ian(a)dimensionflip.freeserve.co.uk> wrote: > "lisa met chelsea at the knocking school > chelsea didn't feel like following the rules > and left the place > for another school > where the boys go with boys > and the girls with girls" > > hmm... what sort of crazy establishment would this > be then? "no straights allowed" school? ha! that'd kick ass. but anyway, i always took it like a school of thought or something. does anyone else (maybe just u.s. listees) find the chris rock "no sex in the champagne room" song to be shamefully funny? ain't nothin' wrong with that... i mourn the fact that Rachel's are playing in louisville, ky, this sunday (their home!) and i can't go. however, i think they might be playing nyc next week during cmj, which i will be attending! 4 days of tons of shows, including a few jeepstah bands, don't ya know... ah, speaking of nyc, mark c.! i WILL be in nyc in october! my break is the second or third week of the month -- and KIMberly will be with me! and props to mark for littering his posts with my favorite american slang word.... B&S content: misskimmy and i ordered shameful amounts of merch the other day. oh, and re: the subject -- modest mouse's song "dramamine" is perfect for wallowing. and the promise ring's new album picks you up and makes you happy. cuz it's all the rage, you know. mercifully ending this post, xoxo, marie ps. i, too, was suffering from lesley jo withdrawal. i'm glad she's back in action, yo. === ************************************************************** "I was a proper snob in college, as only a future lifetime English major can be" - buddy glass "to me she was just marie." -mersault ************************************************************** __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?

Sinister: back in toronto
by deb s 09 Sep '99

09 Sep '99

i made a turbulant flight across the atlantic and am back in my fair home city, the one they call toronto. i cried when the plane lifted off and again when it touched down, and everyone around me must have thought i was really scared of flying. but alas, i was just mourning the passing of the summer, and the end of all the hours spent atop primrose hill with the lovely london listees and of course *druken matt*. i was thrown back into 'family' life so suddenly, its quite hard to adjust after my carefree days of doing as i wished. smoking in my bed, arriving home on the first train of the day, and having complete *strangers* sleep on my floor after knowing them only a few hours. the wonderful martin and vince also arrived in our city yesterday, and their soothing (?) accents are helping me to ease back into the real world. teri (and andrew and emily) and i met up in the subway and headed to the horseshoe where we found our wandering brits already enjoying a pint. vince enjoyed the evening by introducing himeself to literally every single canadian. really, all seven hundred of us. the best part of the evening (aside from hearing mogwai) was when vince (who had been off getting to know everyone who happened to make eye contact) came up to myself and martin and said "Oi!! I don't like this band! That big twat jus 'it me on the 'ead!!" that big twat being a guitarist from mogwai. apparently not everyone was keen to chat with vince, or at least not keen to 'hear' vince chat with everyone. a rather robotic, psychotic ballet dancer kinda man entertained us for the rest of the evening with his hectic interpretations of his feelings(?) (slapping the walls, piroueting, falling into splits) during mogwai's set. i hope he's not there again tonight, cause i was scared of getting knocked over if i got up to use the lavatories. well i've posted more now than i've ever done before, and i'm afraid i've exhausted myself. could be the jet lag, who knows. a grand 'till we meet again' to all those i met in london. i know i'll be back one day, possibly sooner than expected. i'm going home to nap now. bye bye. love debbie xxxxxxxxxxx ______________________________________________________ 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".

Re: Sinister: the theatre is full - but I AM NOT!!!!!!!

hello... about to rush out to my date with hugh grant, i have my mace, my chastity belt and my large pointy stick in case of emergencies. i must keep my virtue. anyway, before i rush off... pete made my head swell: >The as-ever piss funny Ian aw cheers.. if i hadn't already used my list-crush vote (twice, i think, by mistake) you could have it for that. infact SOMEBODY VOTE FOR THIS MAN...just because he was nice to me. that's a good enough reason isn't it? and then he went on to tell us this: I shook hands with >Christopher Timothy (you know, the one of "All Craetures Great and >Small" fame....) whilst dressed as a bird with "SLUT" written on my >head in lipstick. And I'm particularly happy to say that he didn't try >to stick his hand up my arse once. The merest inkling of those >infamous rubber gloves and I'd have been out of there quick smart, I >can tell you. i can beat that. i once saw christopher timothy having rampant anal sex with an orang-utan. 's true. and even if its not, its fun to libel famous people. let's do it some more... i think it may be time for some B&S content...i was listening to "tigermilk" the other morning, as you do...and was inspired to seek your opinions on a phrase that has puzzled me for a couple of years since the first time i heard it: "lisa met chelsea at the knocking school chelsea didn't feel like following the rules and left the place for another school where the boys go with boys and the girls with girls" hmm... what sort of crazy establishment would this be then? "no straights allowed" school? well, why wasn't i told of this as a teenager? i'm sure there wasn't one in lincolnshire. where the boys go with potatoes, and the girls...well...i'm not saying.... jeanette said: >Oh! Do be careful of those rays! According to a press release received >at our office, the earth will be pounded by "intragalactic raybeams" >today well, it didn't seem to happen in wolverhampton. but i did see a strange orange tentacled creature creeping round the back of my house. i just put it down to all that mouldy cheese i found in the fridge and didn't think i should have eaten. so, did the world end for anyone today, as predicted? it seems to still be going on here. in its usual silent sort of way. anyway, me and my point stick are off to see a hollywood megastar. back later love and kisses to all smiley people ian +----------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the reborn Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail "sinister(a)majordomo.net".

Sinister: hello there
by Josh Baze 09 Sep '99

09 Sep '99

hello all- apparently, i've been weened and am free from the nursery to greet and gum you all. my name is josh and i am 24. i live in kansas city, mo, usa where i work for an ad agency. besides being fond of belle and sebastian, i am also a hopeless missionary for grant lee buffalo, gene, the smiths, the the, jeff buckley, and maybe ben harper, i haven't made up my mind yet. being one of maybe two dozen belle and sebastian fans in KC, most of whom I am already friends with, I would love to hear from other belle and sebastian fans in the midwest usa. anyone there? i would also encourage any globetrotting sinistereens to check out the midwest and central kansas in particular. i've done my share of travelling and the flint hills of kansas are among the most beautiful places i've ever seen. i'd also love to trade mixed tapes with anyone who's interested. i'm especially interested in getting into some lesser known UK pop bands- they're too expensive to check out here. any takers? i guarantee you'll be satisfied with my tape, if you want one...something for everyone... REQUISITE B&S REFERENCE: On American National Public Radio, there is a show called "Marketplace," which is basically a show about money, stocks and bonds, etc. A couple of weeks a go I caught them playing about 45 seconds of "Looper" while they read the numbers. I'm sure many a day trader were confused by the words "Bunch of Loopers!" I know i was. anyone trying to track down 12" vinyl for B&S, there's a great record store near here that has it all, in big quantities, if you'd like to mail order it, i could pass along their relevant information. nice to "meet" you, all be it in 2-D. I'll submit a picture to "honey" to post for anyone whose interested. Hope to hear from you all. And thanks for the curious daily email distractions- keep em coming! happy to be a part of this- Josh +----------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the reborn Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail "sinister(a)majordomo.net".

He has a regular spot on the Nature Channel over here in the States where he essential goes bezerk in the wilderness and just starts grabbing any animal he can find, no matter how lethal. I saw one episode where he was man-handling a 12 foot venomous snake while telling the viewers "It has enough venom in one fang to kill over 20 humans!" He really is nuts. He's jumped into pirahna infested waters to snatch a sea turtle from the depths, he's used his wife as croc bate on the New Zealand shores, he chased a cottonmouth snake for over a mile through a cornfield, he tried to steal a baby Dingo etc. His tag line always seems to be "She'a a beauty!" or "She's a glamour girl!" almost always followed by "You gotta love it!" as he chucks the animal that almost was his undoing back to the pit where he climbed in and found him. Warning: His show is highly addictive. I mean, you can't just watch an idiot like this anywhere...can you? Hmmm...the infintely lovely Lauren with two peirced nipples? [sound of my trousers snagging as a I get up to leave]...Later guys!

Sinister: Quick news for the americans
by Jordi Trenzano i Vilar 09 Sep '99

09 Sep '99

Hi: Just some news for the american sinisterites: Spanish female singer ANA D is touring in the states, backed with the help of one of the most important pop man in Spain, the guitarist Ibon Errazkin, former member of the wonderful band Le Mans. ItŽs shy pop, quite atmospherical, and I know that many you would have a good time l istening to their music. Dean Wareham chose her debut album ("Satellite 99", released in USA by Grimsey) as one of his favorites from 1998. I donŽt know how much itŽll cost, but I bet that it should not be very expensive. HereŽs the dates: Sept 23 - radio session for KCRW ( L.A) Sept 24 - Los Angeles- Luna Park Sept 25 - San Francisco-The Make Out Room Sept 27 - Chicago - The Hideout Sept 28 - Minneapolis - Bryant LakeBowl Sept 29 - radio session for Radio K (Minn eapolis) Oct 1 - Boston - Sala The Milky Way (supporting ex-Galaxie 500 members Damon& Naomi, in an event organised by Grimsey Records) Oct 2 - Washington DC - Galaxy Hut Oct 3 - Nueva York - Fez Take a chance on her. IŽve been listeninf lately to the Cane 141, than ks to the wise advices of Alasdair Cook. ItŽs great, sounding more like the Red House Pain ters than B&S.

Sinister: i rode my bicycle past your window last night..
by ian 09 Sep '99

09 Sep '99

well, its been a funny old morning. i get up, ring in sick at work, and discover, to my astonishment, two great big parcels on my front doorstep. the first, apparently, is from the planet shakemdown. there is nothing inside it, except a small piece of paper bearing the message "you must die"... well, i would have thought that was obvious, eventually, so i threw it away. the second is a big bunch of flowers. carnations. not really my thang, but they'll do. there was a card with them, bearing the message "love and kisses, hughie g". i presume it stands for hugh grant and not hughie green. i do wish he'd leave me alone. i've had to switch off my answering machine because he keeps filling up the tape with panting noises. however did liz hurley put up with all this? anyway, i've arranged to meet him tonight and put him straight. i'll let you know how it goes. onto other things: kristie suprised the pants off me: (not that i was wearing any) And i love Melanie, she has such a cool way of singing and is highly >under rated. well, ok, just thought i'd ask. this would be THE melanie? melanie safka? cool singsonging sister of the late 60s/early 70s, still going now but in a rather more low key way? another fan? wow! there's a melanie list out there if you're interested kristie. i just offsubbed because they keep arguing about the bombardment of belgrade. not very melanie, really. the woman was a goddess, and did twee many years before young isobel campbell even twinkled in the eye of the milkman. i'm off to catch some rays. or perhaps some peters, or stevens, or pauls. whatever's coming, really. ian -------------- Tomorrow will bring happiness Or at least, another day Phil Ochs +----------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the reborn Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail "sinister(a)majordomo.net".
