I as well picked up the Elliott Smith album yesterday which I think is rather brilliant. There is a really funny little Elliott video on dreamworks.com on the flash site. It's Elliott making X/O and you get to see him skateboarding, adjusting the console w/ a banana, doing the moonwalk. It's quite fun! Any Elliott fans on this list should check it out.

Sinister: Jeepster own my soul
by Victoria Adam 19 Apr '00

19 Apr '00

Hello all, Why don't lovely weekends develop into lovely weeks? Although mon/tues is technically not a weekend, I wasn't at home to notice this. I was out (freedom! fresh air! sunshine!) enjoying the company of my list crush vote, seeing Salako and buying lovely Jeepster badges from the man in the mwng t-shirt. Salako was nice and it was a very Woodstocky moment as the entire pub sat on the floor. Anyway as soon as I get home there's a whingy old college letter on how well I'm not doing, and a bank statement (I'm a student damnit leave me alone), found chewing gum stuck to my skirt from sitting on a pub floor and my oobergirl top had fallen off the washing line and was blowing around the garden (sorry Niko) in a ungainly fashion. At this point the need for comfort food set in and chocolate looked all appealing and after i had finished off the nice stuff the cooking chocolate started making eyes at me. -Pause for sudden mood swing- However !! under evilmail was an amazing mix tape from tapetreeadrian which brightened up my morning and that may mean this week could turn actually turn out lovely. Jeez. Must be the hormones.

Sinister: Today I Have A Voice
by Kerr, David 19 Apr '00

19 Apr '00

Alrighty there fellow listees Today, Wednesday 19 April 2000, I become a man. Fresh from the nursery and straight into the big-bad-wide-world. WOOHOO!!! Seeing as this is my first post I will just introduce myself and not go on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on...................... My name is Davie Kerr and I am 19yrs old, (Soon to be 20, within the next month anyway). I live in Greenock, Scotland, UK. I only just realised that this list existed about two weeks ago after finding a link on the B&S.co.uk website. At the moment my top favourite bands are; 1/ Belle and Sebastian 2/ Blur 3/ The Blutones 4/ Primal Scream 5/ Rae & Christian (Please note that the above bands are subject to change, apart from B&S, on a daily basis depending on how I feel.) I only have one question at the moment: Are there any T in the Park fans on the list? I noticed that Looper are playing there this year and I am already looking forward to see them play live. I was also hoping that B&S would play there this year. Has any one heard any rumours about B&S at T in the Park this year? (OK so I lied, make that 2 questions). Anyhoo............... Cheers for reading this extremely interesting mail >YAWN< You never know maybe you will hear from me again in, 'Wow It's Tomorrow and I still Have A Voice.'

Sinister: who hud thur lives chenged...
by adam apparatus 19 Apr '00

what, were there -no- sinistrals at the NYC flaming lips show? (yes, i got in...) i looked everywhere for upside-down badges (mine haven't arrive yet!), but didn't find anyone.. and no one has posted yet... i might as well start off, though. looper was fab! yeah, yeah. stuart d. looks a little old, don't you think? oh, well. karn is a sweetie. i want a kiss, but i can't have one. the headphones were brilliant; you could hear whole instruments that the bass was drowning out (at least from where i was standing). irving plaza was PACKED. i saw one of the looper guys by the bar (the one with the long face who doesn't play guitar and isn't stuart or karn) but didn't have the nerve to talk to him. i just basked in his accent for awhile... my friends hated looper, though. one of them called them "crapper" and kept saying how stupid they were even though he knew i loved them. what a moke, eh? the flaming lips were incredible, though. wow. i really must buy the soft bulliten now... god. i am just in awe of the show. the downside, of course is that i sat at a train station from 2:30 to 5 AM waiting for a ride that never came. yes, until dawn. in the cold. at one point the dunkin donuts opened though, so that was ok. it was terrible. i am off to ireland. if anyone in dublin sees a boy in a looper shirt on thursday or friday, it might be me.

Sinister: Blatant list abuse, and other stuff......
by Juliya Nikolaeff 19 Apr '00

Hey guys. Haven't written for a while but help me if you can.... I'm looking for London residents to give me some tips on where to send my friends for a good night out while they are there (from Thursday to Monday), and places to eat, shop etc.... Or you could just e-mail them yourselves - drop me a line. LEGAL MAN When was this released? As you know (unless you don't) Australia is extremely slow in getting non-mainstream stuff from overseas, especially from the UK, so if I add around 2 months onto it I think I'll be safe to go see if its in or not.

Sinister: Please, please, please don't eat me. I'm not that tasty, really.
by JENOWL22＠aol.com 18 Apr '00

18 Apr '00

Hewwo, I don't know why but I feel like I haven't posted in ages. I have recently become obsessed with Buffy the Vampire Slayer. But imagine if you were actually called Buffy, and would people who didn't like you call you Bufter and why does everyone in that have odd names? And isn't Giles twee as anything? Yesterday I got some Jeepster postcards through the door. I didn't even know Jeepster had my address. Any way, they were all scary. I might send then on to Samantha, with the letter that I owe her. Yes I think I will do that. I went for a bicycle ride yesterday too. I won't call it a bike, because not in loosest possible sense could it ever be called a bike. 'Bike' is far too cool for my bicycle. My bicycle is too small for me, falling apart and it is bright pink and dayglow orange with bits of silver. My little basket fell off and everything. It started to rain when I was halfway to the town centre and I couldn't see much so I nearly knocked down four OAP's by accident. One had a nasty tongue but the other had an even nastier handbag. Then I nearly got knocked down by a car and I was cycling on the pavement and everything, so I would guess that the driver wasn't very good at driving. On the way home I ended up passing some BMX riders, who were standing around in the rain boasting about their bikes really loudly and when I went past they all laughed and shouted at me for have a geeky bicycle. And keeping my bicycle upright is a full time job, so I got distracted and fell off. And the mud guard broke. Not that it ever was much use anyway. It just meant that the mud went on me and not the wheels. So I kicked it and that wasn't good because I broke the tyre valve. Then I got home and had some hot cocoa and resolved to get a new bicycle, as much as I love my old one hem hem hem. I don't have to go back to school for two weeks because it's easter or something, so I'm going to have grate muddy adventures every single day. yay. And I'm going to paint hard boiled eggs and roll them down hills. We should do that at the sinister picnic in glasgow, even though it will be a bit late. My friend heard Legal Man and says she might buy it, so if her taste is anything to go buy it's prolly not that grate. But i've not heard it yet. Erica's on the cover of papercuts. I noticed that, but i think she already said. I'm going to skeedaddle now (isn't that a grate word, I mean skeedaddle not now because now is just an ordinary non-grate functional word).

Sinister: when animals attack Jerry Springer and Jenny Jones

christa said: << there is a fake Amish person on Jerry Springer right now. i am fully convinced, as of this moment, that absolutely nothing in this world is sacred. down with people! >> ok.. i have to share this, cos its insanly funny, and most of you have prolly already seen it anyway... i was originally going to put the whole article in the text... but then i thought that everyone would hate me and i would get thrown back in the nursery for list abuse, or my wrists would be slapped or i would get yelled at or something scary like that, so now im just sharing the link... cos it made me smile, and it goes with christa's comment. <A HREF="http://www.theonion.com/onion3613/appearance_on_jenny_jones.html">Ma ybe This Appearance On Jenny Jones Is Just What My Marriage Needs</A> i have to admit i havent watched a 'when animals attack' show... but i think i have sat down for a 'worlds best car chases' eppy once or something. right now im still captivated as to why so many people like the millionaire show. and why i can walk down the hall at school and still hear people saying 'is that your final answer'... that, and how while pretending to be dead yesterday (i died during second period, in order to help show how many people die from drug/alchohal related accidents... every half hour 15 kids died..), people actually bothered to do 6th Sense scenes. i recently finished 'the fuck up' ... i dont remember who wrote it. but that was a strange lil book. a friend of mine is supposed to lend me 'the perks of being a wallflower'... but she said she would months ago, and hasnt yet. i have a feeling i wont be seeing that any time soon. and some B&S content... i still havent gotten back my copy of Tigermilk, so i have stolen a Bis cd. i still havent heard Legal Man, but at least i dont expect to till i get the EP. i'm going now, xoxoxo Jes +----------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the undead Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail sinister(a)missprint.org.
