hello sinning sisters and maudlin misters. hold on to your hairnets as today's windisch shares a something pretty. The true story of a quasi-poetic image that relieved pain: funny how you never seem to fall doing anything difficult. it's always either some ordinary movement taken forgranted or a cheap little flair added on for ostentation that proceeds a prodigious spill. For the really hard tricks -- like pinballing though sketchy city traffic on narrow streets but still manageing to make the time to turn your head completely off track for a smiling split second of eternity to make eye contact with that fetching green-eyed girl on the corner -- it's as if some inner zen labotomist shuts out all the irrelvances of distracted underconfidence to accommodate a soul-firing stretch of wit, talent and acrobatic acquity. But those things done as a matter of course, like putting your pants on one leg at a time or negotiating a late-night staircase without falling up it, have a hidden yen to enact venegence for their mundanity by sending you sprawling on your keister with an audible sarcastic snicker shot out from the ether. Flash back to the sabbath afternoon skate session. Well rested and tuned in, I am doing things that are not only out of character for me but are not even comprehensible w/out an egghead in advanced physics or a carnival magician's blown-liver. braggadocio aside, i was surpising myself and amazing my friends by riding away from things that by all rights should have sent me to the doctor a whimpering blood-splattered wreck. (foreshadowing) Setting up for something with a backside smith shuffle (sounds naughty, n'est pas), I find myself flying. all is peaceful for a nano-second as gravity helps me negotiate the eight vertical feet between the lip and the flat. After feeling the joy of impact I'm laid out in a crumpled heap. The collective gasp lets me know that the spill looked at least as painful as it felt. I jump up and do that jesus-god-profanity-this-really-explicative-hurts jig that I've been perfecting of late but to no avail. I pull on my coat, exit the indoor park, and take a stroll into the cold. Amid a number of huge piles of dirt, gravel, assorted debris and the ice and mud remains of last week's snowfall, I found a quasi-poetic image that dispelled pain. There was sunlight and frozen wind as flying-V's of geese cut the space between my swelling elbow and the cool blue sky. At my feet, most of the snow had melted, turned the earth to mud, and froze again. But, here and there at regular intervals, strutted the packed snow footprints of the handfull of folks who ventured out between the piles while it was still a winter wonderland. And even though they resembled those step-schematic feet that accompany the printed directions to popular dances like the lindy hop, the boogaloo and the madison, these prints were the only remaining snow. They strode in silent truth like the lasting impressions one makes in life unaware that someone even noticed or will remember you and the things you've done. Of course, to inject the reality-check that is irony's birthright, these particular footprints lead absolutely nowhere. Somewhere in my reverie (which like some taxonomist-wanker-hack-arts-critic called the prints a positive manifestation of the negative space created when some walker puts down tracks in virgin snow)a sense of beauty and poignancy greater that words took over... blissful interlude of holy .... when I started thinking again, the pain was gone. windisch ______________________________________________________ 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: Rolling in my own excrement cos it's made of gold
by Mark Casarotto 07 Feb '00

07 Feb '00

Hello internet chums, Honey was spot on. I could buy you all, easy. Being a billionaire's a laugh a minute - Over the weekend I philanthropically repaid the national debt of San Salvador, and this morning I bankrolled Osama Bin Laden for the next decade, and on Thursday I'm having Peter Miller flown over to Putney to give me the best oral relief north of the Sierra Nevada. Ah, this is the life... Miss Vicky and I are almost decided on our womantic trip to Venice next month. Free bike hire! My grandmother lives there, in a home, and she likes visitors, and it's a good excuse to impress the missus with my in depth knowledge of both the language and the culture (Mark tries not to snort with derision at his own comment). If any other billionaires are reading, go to my cousin's restaurant next time you're in Venice - it's called the Corte Sconta, it's dear as buggery (though obviously I can afford it) but if you have the readies, sample his caperossoi and peoci and lose yourself in food heaven. There isn't enough gourmet conversation on the list these days, ever since Honey banned Marco Pierre White for calling fellow listee Egon Ronay a c**t. I'm very keen to get some good recipes, and if they have a B&S theme, so much the better - Fox in the Snowpeas, Dirty Cream #2 (hahahaha, stop it, my sides are splitting, no, really) etc. etc. Hope Sweetie's better - I wrote a consoling email last week, but forgot to send it. It happens to us all, honey (small "h")... Massive props to Lixi for getting back on line too. Just thought I'd say that. Mark xxx p.s. anyone else noticed the return of Martin Rissbrook coincides with Villa's upturn in form?

Sinister: Yo greasy, greasy grandaddy
by Robin Stout 07 Feb '00

07 Feb '00

Hello again. I've been pretty lazy recently, but with the calibre of recent posts, I've been inspired to write again. During my hibernation, I've been surviving only on the milk suckled from a vicar's teat and listening to "Oooh, stick you." "Ooh, stick you" is possibly the rudest song I've ever heard. The lyrics go something like "Yo mummy, yo daddy, yo greasy, greasy, grandaddy, lar-di-dar-di-dar, shove it up your fanny". Blimey, mummy would be mortified. I think that "fanny" means "bottom" in American, but it describes a rather more rude, and less tuneful organ in English. I remember when Hulk Hogan was on kid's telly once advertising the seminal movie, Mr Nanny, when he growled at the camera, moustaches a-flying, "I'm Mr Nanny, and I want some fanny." Blimey, mummy *was* mortified. I read something in the Observer, at the weekend, about London towne, which was apparently researched by a mister Nick Dastoor. This is funny, because it hadn't really occured to me that he *actually does* work for a paper. I thought he was probably just making tea and being shouted at to "fetch that broom" or "kick that dog, dirty mongrel". I keep missing letters out, but I'm putting them back in again, don't worry about that. Stevie Pantalon mentioned that Shane Meadows is making a film called "The Stars Of Track And Field". I read that too, in an article about Mr Meadows, where it said that he's been comissioned to make three short films, one for 5000 pounds, one for 50 000 and one for 500 000 pounds. "The Stars Of Track And Field" is the 5000 quid one. Big budget madness! I reckon this is the proceeds from all the jumble sales Struan has ever had. All those bits of plastic add up, you know.

Sinister: to post or not to post
by fiona 07 Feb '00

hey kids, i am bored, tired, and hungry, but i can't go home to bed because i have lectures, and i've got no-one to have lunch with me *sniff* so instead i shall bore you lot with my inane ramblings i don't know if you've noticed the same phenomenon where you live, but it seems to me, that as winter drags on the birds (yes, those things that fly) are waking up too early. thats early as in 1:30 am, when any sensible creatures would be asleep. i've never noticed this before which is possibly because i live in a different city now and, being a student i now have more late nights. but still, its making me worry about the state of the world. surely birds shouldn't start singing long before the dawn? or is it just a conspiracy by the bloody things to stop me from going to sleep? if i met anyone on here at lapastiedelabourgeoisie last week, can i apologise hugely, i was very, very drunk, no i mean actually completely wankered and i only have vague memories of what was a fantastic night. ~list abuse~ anyone who is in 'tha area' ie manchester you are cordially invited to my birthday celebrations this thursday at tiger lounge, offers of beer and jaffa cakes gratefully accepted. starting to feel dizzy now, must go and eat, also must remember not to drink on a sunday night, it makes mondays even less bearable. stay beautiful list lovelies, fiona two in two days* - raaaaaaa *i mean posts obviously, or not +----------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the undead Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail sinister(a)missprint.org.

Sinister: if the KIDS are UNITED...
by stephen hewitt 07 Feb '00

aw, ello babies how are you all getting on? I'm feeling a bit wibbly myself, i think i may be coming down with a bad case of ennui (i thought one was meant to get over these things when one was a grown up). lixi (welcome back love) said: When I'm not asleep I'm eating noodles, or hovering *carsmile pictures lixi hovering over finsbury park, coming in to land on the roof of the job centre Can i just confess that until I saw and heard daphne and whatsit on top of the pops i thought that "ooh, stick you" was yer bone fide underground POONK classic, as opposed to pre-pubescent Shampoo/Reynolds girls thang. silly me. and if that starry (or anyone else) mentions YES (or any other prog rock arse (this includes travis)) again in a positive light, I shall personally come and give her (or anyone else) a good slapping (if only to keep alive the flame of Mr 'Opkins who seems to be on a sabbatical), NEVER TRUST A FUCKIN' 'IPPIE That POONK top 10 on channel four was GRATE, especially jimmy pursey in contempary dance farrago and poly styrene in hare krishna conversion shocker (think i was born 15 years too late, i would have made a GRATE POONK *steve puts coke in his hair to spike it up and pogos at his desk) Oh, according to last week's melody maker that Andreas Johnson bloke used to be in GENTLE WAVES. prolly a different swedish one and not our favourite cellist's one, as there's not much injured moose style yodelling or piss poor u2/radioheed impressions on isobel's debut (maybe that's what it's missing). Caroline mentioned belle and sebastian playing at All Tomorrows Parties. Now unless i missed a very important meeting THIS IS NOT TRUE. However, I think everyone should come anyway and if I had lots of money i'd buy all the tickets and we could ALL go and sit in the bar and ignore mogwai and sonic OAPs. hello to all the lovely pocaff people (i want a bootleg, steadymike) xoxo CarsmileSteve I notice that topshop are selling motorhead t-shirts, WHAT THE FUCK'S GOING ON THERE THEN?

Sinister: when _I_ were a lad, all we had were a bowl of gravel a day to sustain us
by Elizabeth Daplyn 07 Feb '00

07 Feb '00

Hello and welcome to the show. I've just had a really traumatic lecture. Photography and the Vietnam War. Mmmmmm. Detailed descriptions (and pictures too, yay) of exactly how napalm was *improved* by the addition of phosphorous so it couldn't be washed off but instead carried on eating into the flesh until it hit bone. I couldn't believe how nonchalant the rest of the lecturees seemed. Goodness me. It never ceases to amaze me how human beings don't seem to tire of developing new and ever-more painful ways of degrading and damaging each other. I mean, half the pictures extant of Nam were taken by soldiers photographing their own atrocities: "Gee, Mom, look what _I_ got: it's a severed VietCong ear!" Goes quite well with a lecture we had the other day by an *artist* who basically showed us a film of herself having a bit of a menage-a-trois. With closeups of (a) oral sex performed by all members (two laydees and a gent) of the party on all others and (b) the most ridiculous breast-jiggling since, well, EVER. Certainly brightened up _my_ afternoon. Jesus. And they say Fine Art is a copout. So for the first time in a long while I didn't get pished on Sunday, due to all members of the finest debauched chapel choir in Oxford having work to do, most unusually including myself. So I went home, made a stab at the aforementioned ungainful employment, then listened to Tindersticks' "Second Album" with just the unseasonal fairy lights on in the lounge. All was at slightly warped peace. I hadn't listened to that for a while, and it had a rather larger impact than anticipated. Lines like "Have you ever wondered what's inside that keeps us together? Have you ever wanted to take a knife and discover?" certainly make _my_ day. Also, "Cherry Blossoms" _always_ makes me cry. And that's what listening to good music is all about, chillun: it makes you shiver and sweat unexpectedly, it makes you drive your fingernails into the palms of your hands through sheer excitement, and above all it makes you cry. Which is why I'm so goshdarn excited about new B&S *product* (genuinely new rahter than bowed shenanigins), even though I know that any promised release date will be exceeeeeeded bigstyle. Something else to induce violent booty- shaking, uncontrollable giggling (oh yes, the first time I listened to "The State I Am In" properly) and, indeed, blubbing. But I only cry in private, so no-one gets to see my red puffy nose at future Tigermilking eeevents. Heh heh. BOOMshakalak!

Sinister: Dawn's chorus
by ETLRDHY＠notes.ericsson.se 07 Feb '00

07 Feb '00

How are you all? It's very early here. I really don't like to be up and about so early, I'm sure it's not good for you. I had a very productive weekend really. I recorded a new song, well began recording it. There's still a lot to do. It's just getting light here. There is a rosy pink glow away to the south east but elsewhere it's pretty dank. Outside my window I can see three picnic tables, people sit out there in the summer when it gets very hot. But today they look slightly desolate and ever so odd. They look more like sculptures than anything which someone would wish to sit at. I think it could be the light which does that. Light really does change everything I suppose. There aren't many people at work yet. I think that's best. Again, I'd have to say that the light isn't quite right yet. Not right for people I mean. Well, not lots of them anyway. When I left my house this morning it was completely dark. The kind of dark you get at about six o'clock on a winter evening. For the first few seconds it's easy to get confused about what you're doing. I'm always convinced that I'm just popping to the Co-op to get a pint of milk. The light is just the same. Anyway, I never really post to the list and I've been on here for about a year and a half now. I went to that Poetry Cafe thing the other week. It was good. I briefly met Stevie Trousers and promptly confused him by having spotted a copy of 'Papercuts' in Brighton, Tim Hopkins who was messing around in the disabled lift and Nick Dastoor who was just as charming in real life as he is in the movies. Someone also pointed out 'Honey' to me as well, though by this stage I was far too inebriated to make any serious attempts at conversation. I was in London primarily to meet up with my long time friend associate Miss P Booze (who did actaully admit that possibly she is the bitch and I am the queen, which was nice). And the other night I 'met' Erica at the Jeepster site. She was also very nice. She offered to write some words for this song, which was very kind. I've been having all sorts of problems trying to rhyme 'Notting Hill' with anything other than 'Cheap savage thrill'. Err, if that hasn't put you off Erica, mail me and I'll send you what I have got. And finally. This list is really quite a special and incredible place. Everynow and again it seems to suffer a crisis of confidence for various reasons (BTW the reason I don't post is laziness not because I think 'sinister' is intimidating) and everytime this happens the list just seems to get over it and, in the end, simply gets better. I think it would be a very different thing to be a Belle & Sebastian fan without this list. Anyway I'll go and have some breakfast now. richard x +----------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the reborn Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail "sinister(a)majordomo.net".

Sinister: Brevity
by Scott Gould 07 Feb '00

07 Feb '00

Music has an amazing effect on me. On one hand I'm a total slave to it, and I'll search for hours for that perfect album that precisely fits my mood. On the other, if I just play a good rock song when I'm sad, I'll feel better by 2:39 in track 1. It goes the other way too, of course. "The Long and Winding Road" and Belle and Sebastian's entire repertoire could drive anyone to drink. I've always been one of those people who'll endure anything if it means having more time with someone I think I like. It doesn't matter if I'm tried and all I want is my bed; if there's a cute girl in company, I'm staying. In the event that a date occurs, I'm spineless. In fact I sort of measure how much I must like the girl in question by how horrible whatever we do is. I really liked this girl a lot, once. The proof lies in the fact that we saw "Speed" together. I endured Keanu Reeves and Sandra Bullock for her. I've never eaten sushi for anyone, though. ~scott +----------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the undead Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail sinister(a)missprint.org.
