Sinister: Not well at all/armpits/tits
by jarkko frantila 24 Jan '00

24 Jan '00

INTRODUCTION Hello. I'm Jarkko, 22 years old. I live in Helsinki, Finland. I like football, aerobic and I like to go out with my dog. I'm cute too. When I grow up, I want to be a famous person. If I were to be chosen as the "Model of the Milleninnnnihrrugum", I'd make the world a better place. But I think you know these facts about me, so I'll move on. PARTYPEOPLE Throw your hands in the air like you just don't care. A bit like me. See, at the moment my left hand is up. It's hard to type with just one hand. Anyhow, as I said, my other hand is up, and I'm throwing it. And I don't give a flying fuck. So there. Happy now? VOTING Got myself a vote on the listcrush. And I actually know who voted me. Or I'm pretty sure about it. Pretty. A bit like me. I find it funny that people try to act shy and get symphatyvotes like that. Well I'm not falling into that one. Vote for me you fucks, or otherwise I'm going to kick your fucking head in. Think I'm just joking? Well fuck off you cunt, I'm not. So vote for me. Vote. Vote. Vote. DRUNK BEHAVIOR. It's 9.11 am at the moment, I'm at work and I'm still drunk from last evening. Grate. I should do some work or write these two gigreviews. And I'm writing to sinister. Burb. ART Like the t-shirt says: fuck art, let dance. I fucking hate art. As a subject, that is. But I don't dance. So I should have a shirt that says fuck art, fuck dance. Artistic people bore me. I'm artistic, so I bore myself. I'm a dick. Hmm. This mail is getting a bit too Charles Bukowski-like. JEEPSTER Box-set? Fucking rip off. But I'm not bying it, so I'm not complaining. Martin my man, the idea that there should be a printable version that you could download from the net and not play a dime, that's ace. COFFEE I just finished my third cup of coffee. In 20 minutes. Try and beat that. You can't. Quess who's going to regret sending this. @--->--- Jake le PetitE, who's had better days in his life. ______________________________________________________ Get Your Private, Free Email at http://www.hotmail.com +----------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the undead Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail "sinister(a)missprint.org".

Sinister: my oh my
by kerry 24 Jan '00

24 Jan '00

hello again sinisterkids i got 20 (gentle) lashes with a wet noodle from honey for spilling the news of my bodypart to the list, so i've decided to publicly apologize for what i did. i was under the impression that it was voluntarily anonymous. so, my bad. sorry honey. and if any of you are thinking of telling the list which part of your body is being displayed up there, please don't. so that was a bit heavy. um. on to more boring but relevant topics. THE BOX SET / SINGLE PRICES so i don't really care about the EP boxed set, simply because i have them all. and i don't know what some of you are talking about with these outrageous prices you're declaring for the EPs in the US. i bought all of 'em for somewhere around $6 apeice, and thought it was that way everywhere. but it appears that a lot of you are paying closer to $10 for each. which is embarrasingly high, especially since i believe matador has released all of them domestically. of course, all of mine are jeepster copies, so i could be wrong about that. and about them being hard to find -- i had very little trouble finding them even at the local crap record stores out here in western massachusetts. but i'll stop talking about that now. LIST CRUSH TROUBLE no, i'm not going to complain about list crush votes, i was actually going to step in (and hopefully not step on any toes) and help out some of you who think you've been losing your votes. it wasn't immediately apparent to me, but the main list crush page only shows the top 10. if you want to see them all, there's a link at the top to do so. i was confused about it myself, thinking it was rather odd that it looked as though people were losing votes, when i figured that wouldn't happen on the "all time" chart. then i noticed that it was only showing people with names starting with A through C. d'oh. then i figured it out. so i guess that makes me a smartie. but, knowing my luck, you've all figured that out long ago and i'm wasting space writing about it, and makes me a dummy. um. "and i'll tell you, with my tongue between your toes, if there's ever anyone else, don't let them do this." -- tindersticks, "jism" +----------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the undead Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail "sinister(a)missprint.org".

Sinister: posting drunk again
by fiona 24 Jan '00

24 Jan '00

except that its only 1:15 am and already i'm starting to get a hangover. this evening i have mostly been trying to convince xes in the nicest possible way that i don't want to sleep with them. there are worse problems to have i suppose let me get my business out of the way, the lust crush (sic) machine doesn't seem to be working properly. the bit where it says all votes scarily resembles the this month bit, this particularly bothers me as i had a vote before (ooooh a whole vote, i need to be more prolific (yes i am ungrateful, i want to be universally adored)) has anyone ever been sat in the pub / anywhere else and realised that they were the only person in their group of assosciates not taking some kind of medication for depression? i had this realisation a few days ago and it seemed to me to be a sad indictment of the time we live in, i don't think i need to say more, but the people i was hanging out with really have no need for anti-depressants, just because they get upset now and again. oooh, that annoys me. i can vouch for laura llew's comment about chris_t_opher being a sweetheart, he helped me when i first started using the internet and email and stuff, and look at me now!?! i want to continue, i really do, i used to write such good posts, but i'm falling asleep as we speak, i shall see you all again soon my sinister darlings, take care with your jaffa cakes, fiona ....born to lose everyone i choose, its always so.... +----------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the undead Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail "sinister(a)missprint.org".

Sinister: asleep and dreaming..
by MooKitten＠aol.com 24 Jan '00

24 Jan '00

hello sinisterines, thanks to everyone with their airport music suggestions.. I ended up listening to the magnetic fields "69 love songs" (one of the most brilliant albums), and momus "20 vodka jellies on the train to DC.. which was sooo verry loong.. I got on the train at 5am after being awake with aforementioned friend from Chicago who flew in around midnight on Friday night/morning depending, and I still haven't slept. The concert was absolutely wonderful, as was the venue.. the combined music of stephin merrit and the white christmas lights hanging from the ceiling gave the ambitious notion of being lost in a hazy room of disembodied stars. I found myself wondering if it was that wonderful when B&S played there. And yes megan, the STARS were magnificent as well. I bought one of their cds at the end of their set after meeting several charming people, including an intoxicating girl named Rhonda who had been there before to see B&S, and enthusiastically proclaimed the glory of finding TBWTAS on the jukebox in the bar part of the venue. Andy fox will have to tell me how the instore went tho, because as we showed up my very un-twee (her own self description) friend was frightened by the people in the Now! Music and Fashion store and we left just as stephin was carrying things into the store.. but I said hello. sniffle.. Are we intimidating, sinister people? I don't think so.. Alright.. that's enough un-related list content to disturb our list mummy.. so I'll try and get some sleep now. And if I've anymore magnetic fields overload to send out, I'll just write a mail to mr.adam apparatus. ;) goodnight, Katie +----------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the undead Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail "sinister(a)missprint.org".

hello all, this post, surprisingly, only contains b+s content. in response to blair's questioning the price of the E.P. boxset, i checked on amazon.com and saw that it is going to cost about $20. while a bit high for 12 songs, it is a HUGE improvent over the 36 dollars you'd probably spend on the imports. anyway, thats it...

Sinister: I'm so happy
by Shaft 23 Jan '00

23 Jan '00

Hello all. I've been on the Sinister list since very near its inception, yet this is the first time I've posted in probably a year-and-a-half. But I've a very good reason to today. I'm going to London for the first time ever in March!!!! So I'd like to ask all of the London Sinister members out there what some cool things for B&S fans to do are that perhaps you wouldn't read about in travel brochures, Select, or NME. I'll be there from March 17th until March 22nd. Are there any good shows that week? I read about a new club in Select called Track and Field--is that cool? Feel free to write me at this address so as not to annoy the other list members. Thanks- Andy +----------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the undead Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail "sinister(a)missprint.org".

Sinister: randomness
by feather boa 23 Jan '00

23 Jan '00

hello. i'm *nice*. i live in london and this is my first time posting on sinister. i'm a bit nervous and i'm not as cool as everyone else. i had a dream yesterday that i posted and it didn't show up. i once dreamed that my parents went away on holiday and left me in the care of stuart david, who ran a twee cafe down the road. and it was a summer evening and i had to get to the cafe before 8:30 for my boiled egg and soldiers. and then i played scrabble with stuart murdoch. i read nalda said this week and i thought it was brilliant, and it had echoes of beloved by toni morrison, which is a good thing. if you read melody maker, i've had some letters printed in it as feather boa. but the only interesting one was about when i heard b&s in kfc (tbwtas), i thought it was nick drake at first. i think they go less well with kfc than starbucks because at least starbucks makes an effort to be slightly random. pip pip, FB X --- man is least himself when he talks in his own person. give him a mask, and he will tell you the truth. oscar wilde *********************************** chickclick.com http://www.chickclick.com girl sites that don't fake it. http://www.chickmail.com sign up for your free email. http://www.chickshops.com boutique shopping from chickclick.com *********************************** +----------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the undead Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail "sinister(a)missprint.org".

Sinister: i can't ever think of good subject lines...and this one's no different
by rachel tucker 23 Jan '00

23 Jan '00

hello to you all, and especially the two of you who have made me your list crush! -you know who you are, and i know who *one* of you is...;-) i went out last night. this is not a reason for posting in itself, though it has become a bit of a rare occurrence lately, y'know, lack of money, boyf, stitch to wear, that kind of thing. anyway, i was dancing the night away (3 primal scream songs! wicked!) like you do, everyone getting into it, when the dj plays the new oasis single. i have never seen a dance floor clear so rapidly. those who couldn't get into the bar stood around sullenly, topping up on their nicotine levels. obviously i permitted myself a small chuckle - how the mighty have fallen and all that - but looking around, i was saddened. i owe oasis quite a lot. stop sniggering! before they swaggered into my life i was completely unaware of music that wasn't take that, nkotb, kylie etc. and yeah, my love for take that is everlasting, but oasis...they opened doors, expanded horizons. they were mind blowing. it was a brief but passionate affair. i only own 'definitely maybe' and a handful of singles, i was already bored of the band by '...morning glory'. it's been hilarious to watch their collapse. but still...i owe them, they deserve more than a patronising sneer from me. oh well, i'm sure noel & liam aren't bothered... meanwhile, alexander borgia, i take my hat off to you. to make my already smutty post (though, i hasten to add, it wasn't exactly *my* smut) even smuttier is a triumph! i look forward to more quality analysis from bear, bear, bear, and nephew, and son... lovin' and leavin' you rachel xxx +----------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the undead Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail "sinister(a)missprint.org".

Sinister: dirty post number 2
by blair hicks 23 Jan '00

dear sinsisterians, jason spoke thus: "I was looking nostalgically at M.A.S.K. and Thundercats sites this morning. Kids today don't know what they're missing, really they don't. Still, nothing compares to original Transformers cartoons ;)" not to delve back too deeply into the much abashed "what we watched as children" discussions, i must pledge my agreement with jason. in fact, i run a transformers trivia mailing list out of a friend's web page. each week a new query is sent out, and the first correct response is rewarded with some insanely silly prize. any of you sinster folk interested in 80 cartoon lore are welcome to drop me an electronic line. as for b&s content, i am wondering if the reissued EPs will be also be put out by matador here in the states, or will they be jeepster only. as i know little of how such things work, i am wondering if we will in the states will still have to pay import prices for the resissue. so shall end my second post. not very charming, but teeming with potential. fondly, blair _______________________________________________________ Get 100% FREE Internet Access powered by Excite Visit http://freeworld.excite.com +----------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the undead Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail "sinister(a)missprint.org".

Sinister: general ramblings
by Philip Boucher 23 Jan '00

23 Jan '00

sinister after a double whammey of school report, then parents evening all within 3 days i am only allowed to see my friends on a saturday for 4 hours! That is one of my mothers biggest overreactions, but i told her i needed some books for school so i can go and see my friend and her cousin, on holiday from ireland, and get money for the books. The biggest problem will be when i return from the cinema with no money and no books. To make a word rhyme with iris, you could conjoin two words, like dry-kiss, or fly-bliss. I wish i could go to the airport enough to have favorite airport music, i love going to Manchester airport, but i never get to fly, its not fair. Belle and Sebastian night at the star and garter is this friday night, i want to go, but the Smashing Pumpkins gig, meant to be last Friday was cancelled, and i think it might be re-scheduled for this friday. Apparently they caught the flu (Like anyone who comes to Manchester) but i also heard that they might be splitting up. Roumers will fly, but i kinda hope they do, my ticket was £20, and the refund will come in handy because i have run out of money. My Belle and Sebastian shirt arrived yesterday, its a funny material, it always seems to be wet for some reason. Despite what i have heard on this list, i think it fits fine. The only problem being that it is bright orange (I got the clydeside hunt one with isobel and the fox) i think i want the bus one now, much more tame. In my school we are lucky enough to not get PE teams picked, we just go and hang about, occasionally our drunk 'teacher' tries to sort out a game of rugby, but because its so cold outside we go on strike and he returns to his bottle. Unfortunately now we have a supply teacher, because our teacher has been suspended for alcaholism, and he tries to make us play badminton, but we still don't have to pick teams. keep them coming sinistarians, Phip ______________________________________________________ Get Your Private, Free Email at http://www.hotmail.com +----------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the undead Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail "sinister(a)missprint.org".
