Sinister: Listen, this is pish, I think I'll leave
by Nick.Dastoor＠guardian.co.uk 09 Feb '00

09 Feb '00

Rumour proved true shock! On the 23rd November, Carsmile Steve reported on his Stuart David chat experiences and said: > 4. In fact there were subtle undertones that he might be leaving the band > to concentrate on Looper and stuff (can I stress this is simply hearsay and > reading between the lines and NOT FACT) Hey ho, I wish him well. Will the rest of the band get more money now? You can play bass? You can play drums? Bum-dum-dum-a-lum. Mmmm...yeah! The rebel's here and he's street tuff. >> Maybe this was just a mistyping, but isn't the >> expression 'shot of me'? I only mention it in case >> he's gone through his life getting it wrong and >> wondering why people look at him funny. > According to my Talulah Gosh approved dictionary, both > are possible. I think Nick's version is the one used by > common as muck people, and mine's dead posh. Oh all right then. I'll shot up.

So I went on to have five more beers (still in my pyjamas), felt even more GRATE, thanked my gracious host and set off home. Only for my legs to stop working as I crossed a busy road. That was strange. My friend had to drag me to the pavement before I got squashed. Today's recipe? Cous-cous with sun-dried tomatoes (sun-blushed tomatoes if you're oh so trendy), oyster mushrooms and a soupcon of anchovy paste for the non-vegetarian (did you know Worcestershire sauce is made of anchovies? Curious). Season and serve with olive stir-fried chicken and a Pinot Noir or similar. Yum.

Sinister: computer geeks and bookish types
by Paul Field 09 Feb '00

09 Feb '00

Hello all, firstly after Laura Llew (I think) mentioned Tom Robbins, I thought I would copy this quote (from memory - so forgive any inaccuracies) in a kind of response to Brandts message. "Plans are one thing, and fate another. When the two coincide, success results, but success should not be considered the absolute. It is questionable, for that matter, whether success is an adequate response to life, success can eliminate as many options as failure." Even Cowgirls Get the Blues, Tom Robbins. Also, anybody who knows much about computers will know what 'pointers in c' are (for those who don't, it's something to do with a dull programming language). Now, go to http://www.amazon.co.uk <http://www.amazon.co.uk> and search for 'pointers in c' in their books. (dunno if it works in amazon.com) The results include one of everybody's favourites, the catcher in the rye, and something else. Warning - it is not twee and may offend! Though if you ask me it is bloody funny. I'll go now before I embarrass myself any further. Tatty-Bye Paul. +----------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the undead Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail sinister(a)missprint.org.

Sinister: Primal Bean
by Robin Stout 09 Feb '00

09 Feb '00

Primal Scream, grrr! Nick said this; >But it puts me off. I'm not very good at taking bands seriously when >their members are so daft. then Rachel said this; >i honestly do believe that the scream's music rises above >whatever their band members are actually like. I used to have a bit of a problem with bands who had wanky people in them, but I'm not so bothered now. I think, like Rachel said, it's not about the people in the end, its about the music and it just so happens that arrogant, wanky types make that music. Mind you, all the bands I *really* like are the ones where the members seem okay, and that could be why I like Belle and Sebastian most of all. I do think it affects lyrics, though, lyrics come from the heart. I used to think that Bobby Gillespie was a jazz trumpeter, I think I was a bit confused. I also went through a stage of thinking that Peter Miller and Paul Mitchell were the same person. It must have been the small letters that got me so confused. Small letters? Oh no I won't bother with those, there's too many of them, the big letters will do for me. It's fun the way we don't know much about each other though, isn't it? Some people think I'm a boy and some people think I'm a girl, which I find quite titillating. I forget myself sometimes. Oooh, I've just read that Stuart David has left the band. I've got nothing against Stuart David, but he never really seemed to fit in too well with the sound of the band anyway, so I don't think this is a bad thing. It'll be a good thing for Looper too, I know Stuart D gets pissed off that he's referred to as "that chap from Belle and Sebastian". Speaking of Stuart David, I read Nalda Said the other day and it's not half as bad as I thought it would be, it's quite good in fact. Hmm, this email is far too dull. I think I'll say a rude word to make things more exciting. Bum! That's done the trick! Robin x PS: Congratulations Ailsa on your engagement. I suppose Stuart David's departure puts the icing on the wedding cake, so to speak. (sorry for that terrible joke, folks) +----------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the undead Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail sinister(a)missprint.org.

Sinister: Stuart David - news from Jeepster!
by Alder, Lucy 09 Feb '00

09 Feb '00

as an update to the recent news in the nme and on nme.com, we would like to make a correction to their story and clarify the situation. it was reported that, contrary to rumours, stuart david (bass player) had not left belle and sebastian and was not considering doing so. the real situation is virtually the opposite of what was reported. stuart david has left belle and sebastian as a full time member and will not be playing live with the band in future. he will now be concentrating on looper and will still have links with belle & sebastian (including playing with them at the forthcoming recording of the john peel session for radio 1) and shall occasionally work with them in the studio. effectively, stuart david has chosen to spend more time developing his writing and work with looper and this has been amicably received by the other members of belle and sebastian.

Sinister: where the boys are...is where I'll be
by Angel Blackwell 09 Feb '00

09 Feb '00

so I was doing this vicar up the arse the other day... Finally got to hear some B&S played loud in a club on Saturday. (All Torontonians pls cover your eyes for the next part.) Friends of mine were down from London (Ontario) so we had to go to, uh, well, fuck it, I went to Blowup! And believe me it blew, well what I remember of the evening anyway. But I was completely disillusioned that night as well. This guy I know was there and I hadn't seen him since I graduated from uni. Alls of a sudden, Looper comes blipping and bleeping along and it's the first good song I'd heard that night. Well, this guy i knew, he's so cool and has great taste in music and used to dj our Redeye and Popstars nights at the pub, he didn't know who Looper were/was. Oh well, I knew my generation weren't supposed to have idols. One of the springs came off my new slightly '60's pullout couch and I can't figure out where it goes. It's all slightly embarrassing cus it's hanging outta the couch and everyone who comes over can figure out how we broke it. I'm not going to Morrissey now cus he's old and not as sexy as the life size poster I have of him posing on that car and I can't get to Hamilton on a wednesday night. Before I go I'll ask if anyone has the same problem I've been having: is it a sin to keep getting you boss off when you work late? No, really, does anyone else have a hair style that's not like everyone else's at your place of employment. I had a really bad hair day but hadn't noticed yet and no one told me about it cus they thought my hair was supposed to look like shite. I didn't have enough glue in my hair to keep it all spikey like. le petit ange ______________________________________________________ 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: Chocolate flavour Stripes!
by Sarah Clarke 09 Feb '00

09 Feb '00

Ba-ba-ba-ba, I watched Sid'n'Nancy last night, and Queer as Folk too! The feller who played Johnny Wotten was a dumbum, and was that KATHY BURKE I saw? A lady of many faces, all of them somewhat disturbing. I like her. Not as much as I like Queer as Folk though. Gosh! Take my breath away or make me faint in sheer delight or what?? The teaser for the next series was JUST too much, I fell off my bed and crushed some crisps. Wow. It gets no better. Hopefully the lesbians won't be in it so much this time. And we get more STUART'N'VINCE. Speaking of lesbians, Lesley Jo is back! Speaking of lesbians (and their associated housemates), Lixi is back! Yippee! It could ONLY get any better if this pretty foul "milkshake" (my arse) turned into a superb W-Bar of Harringay milkshake. *sings* toooooniiiiiiiight, make me a dyyyyyyyyke *to the tune of Atomic* Anyway. Lesley! Referring to Belle AND Sebastian: > jealous by telling her i had seen them live, and met them. Well, I've seen them *all*. DEAD!!!! Ahahahhahhaaahahhaha and what pretty little corpses they made moi lovelies. There was Stuart David, even in his death mask mumbling "this is a pish graveyard, wheres my bass, wheres me washboard", Richard - his serene features speaking of a life of hitting things and carrying Happy Shopper carrier bags, and Mick, looking slightly disgruntled that some "wit" had scrawled 'the prick' on his tombstone. Theres always one isn't there, ALWAYS ONE!!! > SCUM forever, Toilet Duck forever! Love you!

Sinister: Students with beards: "TEE OR CAKE OR DEATH! TEE OR CAKE OR DEATH!"
by jarkko frantila 09 Feb '00

09 Feb '00

Peter Miller (formaly knows as Honey, it seems) said something that made me spill my coffee onto my bosses computer, therefore costing me 1200 pounds (send the check in the mail, PM, or otherwise I'll break your bloody kneecaps with my hammer that I just found from my trousers. It was there, but the bad news is that the lobster ran away. Well it didn't run, much more like crawled. A bit like babies do. My sisters girl had her first birthday this sunday, and it was grate. She's so cute. But then again, babies usually are. Did you know that back in the days when the Romans were still fuck-off-huge they used to have fun by throwing babies into the air, then catching them. The babies used to giggle, but sometimes the Romans used to kill them by launching them up to the sky and then sticking a pole through them. True story. Mad cuckoo-type of lot the Romans were. I mean, they had some serious freaks as their leaders. A bit like Austria seems to have now. I've said that politics bore me, but that Jörg Heider- dude seems like a real BOJOING-dickhead. Talking of Dicks, have you seen any pictures of Richard Dreyfuss lately? That man has gotten old. But I quess that happens to all of us. We all get old. Some old people smell funny, but I think it's just the Grimreaper that's following them, trying to get his hands on 'em) Erm... Oh yes, Peter Miller said: >FINLAND NEWS > >Jarkko's lesbian president was on the news last night. Also, 68% of >the population of Finland own mobile phones. Some extremists even go >so far as to live in a place called Nokia. When I was on holiday at >Christmas, one of the neighbours was called Jarkko. Never met him >though. Lesbian? Erm, no she's not. She has a boyfriend, she was just the chairman of the gay and lesbian rights movement. I mean, you don't have to have superpowers even if you work in a nuclearfactory, have you? What? No you don't! I know, I know, Spiderman was bit by a radioactive spider (well duh!) and he suddenly was able to climb the walls etc., but... erm... So there! Tell me, when was the last time you saw a spider BITE someone? Hmm, or did it sting Peter Parker? I'm not sure. I was a big fan of X-men too, before the whole comic went piiiiuuuufffff over my head. In the comic, I think it was Prof. Xaviers' son who destroyed the whole universe. And then someone rebuild it. Quoting Eddie Izzard: "That must have been a tree-in-the-morning-decision" by the scriptwriters. Or was that "lesbian president"- thingy a joke? Maybe it was. Or was it? How many birds can you keep in a lift before the landlord notices? Have you ever had the feeling you've been cheated? And yeah, we have a place called Nokia here. That's the place where Nokia had their first factory (I think). They used to make RUBBERBOOTS before someone thought of mobilephones in their office. I wonder how that one came about? Some man working in the office: "Mister chairman, I have an idea!" Chairman: "Not the 'let's recycle our hair and make ropes out of it' again?" SMWITO: "No no! This one's even better! I'm sick of these stupid rubberboots! How about if we started to make phones that you can just carry in your pocket! Or in your bag! You could send textmessages with it! And pictures!" *NOTE: all this happened in the eighties, when the computers were BIG and not that powerful and ugly and "Beverly Hills Cop" was considered to be entertainment. Chairman: "Righto." SMWITO: "Yeah, we'd be huge! Bigger than King Kong! We'd be one of the biggest companies in the world!" Chairman: "Ok. I'll think about that. In the meantime, why don't you go home and take a few days off. You sure as hell seems to need it, you silly little man." And there: the untold truth about the birth of Nokia. @--->--- A rose, love and other stuff that makes you fell funny in your tummy, Jake le PetitE ______________________________________________________ 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: * That's a rather odd birthmark you have there.
by Laura Llew 09 Feb '00

09 Feb '00

It's amazing the silly things you cherish once you have to go without them. Last week (for the first time in a couple of weeks), I finally ventured the roads (that were impassable due to ice and snow) to get out of the house and go to work. It was so good to see people outside of my family again and I realized that I appreciate even the small meaningless phrases that people use commonly. Something as simple as "You make it seem so easy" (except when referring to Blake Hamilton, hehe) is just priceless. While at the bookshop, I was bopping my head along to the great tunes of IYFS (starting at # 3 and skipping the title track so as not to offend anyone). B&S make even work fun. So, then I started making a mental list of places where b&s would not be good to listen to. I didn't think that I would be able to think of many but then I had to stop after number one -- which was in an exercise video. After picturing a peppy blonde Kathy Smith reminding people to breathe along to the sounds of ample sized bum Belle and scrawny Sebastian, well I couldn't stomach it anymore. Of course, I'd rather slit my wrists and do push ups in saltwater than to think of Richard Simmons involved in a b&s aerobic concert. Anyway, I just realized that I still have quite a bit more to say but the topics in no way correlate with each other. From here on out I'm switching to the tres fashionable heading format. **I've Got Rhythm, I've Got Music** I do believe that I am indebted forever to Sinister for music forever. It never fails that if someone from the list has made me a mix tape it is always just ACE. This past week was like Christmas for me. Not only did Jim Gilmer (who is the Tape God. Someone please make that boy an idol) send me Magnetic Fields 69 Love Songs (which is tops) but Angelic Alexander Borgia finally delivered the goods with all of Belle and Sebastian's songs on MP3 format. Oh, it was just too good to be true. Plus, the cd and cd cover were amazing aesthetically. I usually just slap a mix tape together but you kiddies on here make a scratch tape into an art form. **Trends May Change But A Girl's Designs Will Always Stay The Same** Since the posting of the picture that will forever taint my mental image whenever I hear the word tummy, I have switched allegiance from the bodypart page to Miss Scarlett's "Hey Hooch, Your slip ain't the only thing showing" (rough translation). Unfortunately, I hear there haven't been many contributions to this piece of art in the form of a webpage. So, whether it's those tight red fit for a 70's porn film flares, those go-go boots you haven't been able to take off since reading Robbins' "Skinny Legs and All", or those fuzzy leopard print slippers that you wear out to the ABC store get off your clothed bums and send Miss Erica some pictures. I hesitate to wonder if the boy sporting his beautiful pro delgado chest will defect from the bodyparts page. It's so great though it should be at both. **RA RA REE (Is Showing More Than Her Knees)** I hope that all of you have gotten the chance to talk with the lovely Marie Elia (aka Ree, aka Minxy Milkmaid, aka I didn't know you could hike a skirt up that far) . You can look at her picture on the sinister page at http://www.belleandsebastian.org/honey/sinister/people/MarieEliaLittleArson… Isn't she the most adorable looking creature you've ever laid eyes upon? She seems so innocent, so sweet, so darling.. Ha! My sinister friends, this is where you learn the valuable lesson of never judging a book by it's cover. You get a clue when you realize her e-mail address is "little arsonist". It should be a hint to the fact something is awry. But you never know the full extent of what the little minx is capable of until you put her in with a bunch of young impressionable milk maids. She 'whips' out chapter 27 and your whole operation goes to pot. At least, she crochets instead of doing the k word. **Laura's Feeling Just Ideal: (I'm a Libra)** I think we cleared up Iris's pining about no good rhymes for her name with "shy kiss", "pure bliss", and "takes the piss". Even if that doesn't work, Iris, you'll always have the title of a Goo Goo Doll's song. Then Fiona chimes in with no good rhymes for hers either. I couldn't think of any charming ones myself. But be calm, Fiona, you do have a great song by The Gerbils with the charming lyrics of "Fiona smiles and she says my life is like a garbage can. Fiona laughs when she finds out I'm just a boy pretending to be a man." Why that's kind of snappy eh? Oh well. It could be worse. You could be a Laura where you're relegated to the rhymes of 'tiara' and 'whore-a'. Even if you do get a song where they don't rhyme your name with anything the Laura is usually dead (ie "Think of Laura" Even though Laura is dead, it wouldn't be too bad of a song except for it's sung by Christopher Cross), the person who loves Laura dies ("Tell Laura I Love Her by Ray Peterson) or Laura's a p-s-y-c-h-o p-s-y-c-h-o p-s-y-c-h-o and psycho was her name-o (Billy Joel's song). **Por Favours: (Look Ma! I'm two lingual)** I have a couple of quest-ions that I was wondering if anyone could answer. Actually, there not questions as much as they are just wanting opinions on a couple of different things. The first one is a book by Laurence Sterne by the name of "Tristam Shandy". I was just wondering if anyone on the list had read this and if so what you had thought about it. I will be ecstatic to hear someone's opinion on it. The subject of my other question is the group Silversun. The same person who recommended Belle and Sebastian to me a couple of years ago also really loved the group Silversun. For the past two years, I have been trying to find something by them over here in the states but it has been impossible (im-pos-siblay: that was said in my faux Spanish accent). Are they worth checking out? I don't know a thing about them. So, please forgive my ignorance. **US/CANADA SINISTER DIRECTORY:(Another Favor. This time in English)** Some time ago, I posted about wanting to make a Sinister Directory for all of the listees that live in the US or Canada (or Anartica for that matter). I dutifully gathered all of the information that everyone graciously e-mailed me & put it together in a nice little program. Unfortunately, the person who was suppose to help me post it on the web has been suffering from computer problems and can no longer do it. I was wondering if anyone out there would like to help me put it together. I must admit that it would take some amount of work and would be an on-going project (due to people subbing and wanting to be added). *Spilled Milk: The Spoiled Years** I need to apologize to y'all. It seems as if I have made a grievance against someone on here and because of that it reflected negatively on the list. It seems as if I were most inconsiderate and rude to someone due to just not thinking. I just want to say to that person and to everyone that I'm sorry. Nobody (except maybe Will Porter) is perfect and I know that I personally am highly flawed (Heck, when I live by myself I drink the milk right from the carton. That's right. I don't even pretend like I'm going to get a glass). The last intent of my heart is to make anyone feel as if what they are (or what they do for others) is less than great. I'm sincerely sorry that I made someone here feel that way. I am thankful that they came to me with this problem instead of silently seething about it & cursing my name or flaming me to the list as they could have done. So, if I have wronged anyone else please let me know so that I can try to do my best to make it up to you. Well, that's my 2 cents. If I were you, I'd be looking for some change.
