Sinister: melody maker questions
by feather boa 17 Apr '00

hello, i know this constitutes list abuse, but my journalistic career probably depends on it. what they want to know is your opinions on Legal Man - is it any good? and should they be making this kind of pop song with the express intent of getting into the chart? and do you really think it sounds like the Eurotrash theme tune? can you please email the lovely carol_clerk(a)ipc.co.uk with your replies, your name, age, town, and (if possible) a nice net piccy of yourself looking lovely (the lovely part isn't compulsory). sorry again. pip pip, FB X *********************************** 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: Bedsit infamy, they've all got it in for me!
by Alder, Lucy 17 Apr '00

17 Apr '00

As Saturday night drew closer, I became increasingly up for a Big Night Out. With a full face of make-up, freshly painted nails and hair that, for once in my life, was behaving itself, I was just hunting for my bus pass when the phone rang. "Sorry Lucy, all our trains into London have been cancelled - we're not going to be able to come". I sighed a little sigh, sat down in my full face of make-up, freshly painted nails and hair that, for once in my life, was behaving itself and switched on Stars In Their Eyes. But what a treat it was! "Tonight, Matthew, I'm going to be Phil Oakey of the Human League" squeaked a weaselish little chap before disappearing behind a cloud of dry ice. After the transformation, the likeness was just uncanny. He had the lopsided haircut, he had the dangly earring, he had the moves, he had the voice, he wanted our love action! He was grand and he should have won, but the audience preferred to vote for a schoolgirl being Kelly Le Rock. Darned teenagers, they're always up to no good. Other treats of the evening included a shit impression of Gary Barlow (as if the real GB isn't shit enough) and a Jennifer Rush with jaw-jut. Prompted by a programme about Jimmy Saville last week, I began thinking about favourite Jim'll Fix Its. I remember one matronly woman whose dream it was to meet Tom Jones. She'd been in the front row at a Tom Jones concert once and he'd wiped his sweaty brow on her hankie, since which time she'd kept it in a plastic bag in her freezer. Jim brought Tom to the lady's house, she dug the hankie out from between the bags of frozen vegetables and he mopped his brow with it once more. The housewife went all wibbly. So, the question I need to ask is if any of the victorious ATP footie team kept a hanky with some of Stu M's blood on it? I'd like to keep it in my freezer. Massive props to Pelican Rob for mentioning infected cysts on the list. One of the 'friends' who blew me out on Friday night can't stand to hear the words 'pus' or 'phlegm' - they give her the willies. I'm thinking about sending her a cyst-laden email to see if it doesn't have the same effect. Rob also wondered what we'd do if we had a copy of the new B&S album. I'm pretty sure I'd decide immediately which song I liked the least and then spend hours and hours trying to decide which one I liked the best. Miss Llew enquired >>What did Italy ever produce...besides Michelangelo, Leonardo da Vinci, and the Renaissance? I'm desperately trying to think of Italians who've made an impact on the charts, outside their own country, but I can only think of Sabrina ("Boys, boys, boys, I'm looking for a good time...") Any pop trivialists out there care to help me? For a split second on Sunday morning, I was tempted to enter next year's London Marathon. Then I remembered the cardinal rules of marathon running, as taught to me by my Dad who has done nine of them and was once the first fancy dress runner to cross the line (he was a fairy and David Coleman got his name wrong): Put vaseline on your nipples, otherwise they'll bleed all down your vest Put vaseline on the insides of your thighs, otherwise they'll bleed all down your legs Don't pop that big blood blister anywhere near the living room carpet Don't think about painting your toenails after the race, because you won't have very many left Steer well clear of people who foam at the armpit or look like they'll puke at the finish And on that rather foul and disgusting note, I'll go and get myself some lunch.

Sinister: Whoooooossshhhhhh!!!!!
by Wayne Fortune 17 Apr '00

17 Apr '00

Hello all, I'm getting pretty fed up with this constant rain. I was even attacked by a sudden downpour on Saturday after I spotted a bit of blue sky and decided to take my guitar out in the back garden. Nevermind, because what amounts to probably the most exciting thing ever to happen to me goes on this weekend, as I troop down to Silverstone for the British Grand Prix. Or at least it better be the most exciting thing ever for £175 which I can't really afford... Is anyone else going, and if so, do you fancy meeting up for a coffee or whatever? We could form the last bastion of Belle and Sebastian amid a sea of consumerism... Lots of love Ba Ba __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?

Sinister: World Twee Picnic Day!!
by stephen hewitt 17 Apr '00

17 Apr '00

Hey popkids Cassarootio said: So, after consultations with several of England and Scotland's most dedicated listees (and Alastair Cook - yes, ladies, he will be there in person), unless anyone has any objections or suggestions...Saturday 20th May, Primrose Hill. Then foxinthesnow said: The plan thus far is a nice meet up on May 20th in Parc Lafontaine , close to the lake. I know there's 2 of them but close to the wee cabin that's in the middle. So I thought, lets make SATURDAY 20 MAY WORLD TWEE PICNIC DAY!!!! The Plan goes something like this, if you are in big city/town/area of concentration of B&S lovers MEET UP on 20 May and have a picnic/booze up/game of footy. If, however, you are in the middle of nowhere/work/area of concentration of Slipknot fans, have a picnic ANYWAY(or go into #sinister and have a virtual picnic). Then we can take lots of piccies of us in picnic poses (like this http://www.missprint.org/sinister/picnics/PissedTimAgain.html ) and send them to honey. *steve imagines the headlines "strange internet cult in global picnic madness" "They shouted 'the day of legal man is almost upon us' as they rampaged through the streets of every major city, half empty bottles of cheap red in each hand" Just remember kids, don't drink the Koolaid... I've also got my photos back from ATP (no semi-naked struan i'm afraid) and shall scan them at some point in the near future, no really. Newbie Watson said: do any of the other readers know of famous pop stars who have quit the business to play a sport? Hmm, good question, let's think, well Lars Ulrich from that Metallica used to play tennis for Denmark, but that's the other way round isn't it. How about Davy Jones from them Monkees, he's a jockey. Does Roger Daltrey count as a trout fisher, and Keith with the funny eyebrow from boyzone and, of course, Andrew Ridgeley both drive racing cars very badly. Simon Le Bon's yachting career? No, don't stop me, i could go on all day.... xoxo CarsmileSteve +----------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the undead Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail sinister(a)missprint.org.

Sinister: 10 Roddington Place
by Keith Watson 16 Apr '00

16 Apr '00

Hi everyone, Im new here, this is my first post, so please go easy on me. I was walking around Edinburgh the other day and in Avalanche, what were they playing but the new Belle and Sebastian long player Lower your arms child you smell like a gypsy! It was sounding great in the shop well done chaps! Im looking forward to the new single too, Legal Man, and also its B-sides Judy is a dick slap, which is a cover of the Ramones Judy is a Punk but with added rudeness who says you cant shock any more. Also Winter Wooskie which is about how nice itd be to be Chewbacca in the middle of January, with a nice big furry coat to keep you warm. I might come down to London soon to join in the picnic revelry up at Primrose hill followed by a good old cockney knees up, just like Damon Albarn used to have round the house what a diamond geezer. Talking of Geezers, I hear Bernard Butler is quitting the music industry to play snooker. Thats an interesting one, do any of the other readers know of famous pop stars who have quit the business to play a sport? Keith. +----------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the undead Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail sinister(a)missprint.org.

by FakingUpARampage＠aol.com 16 Apr '00

16 Apr '00

i just started thes nice lil post.. but then i messed up and deleted it... this is because a friend of mine are sitting on the phone, iming each other. what a comment on society... !! a while ago puzzle dave said : "People make the same four jokes over and over again.." i'll help!! (tho it wont work cos your a he and its a she joke <why are blond jokes always she jokes?>... no offense to anyone... but this is one of my favorite jokes of all ever... ) Q - how do you know when a blonds having a bad day? A - she has a tampon stuck behind her ear and keeps asking 'wheres my pencil?'... -- i lent a friend of mine Tigermilk last month, and have been living without it since. i think i complained about this in my previous post, so i shant again. anyway, the other day we were walking to a class and he goes 'oh! i listened to Belle and Sebastian and I loved it" and he then went on to tell me all these things that i already knew about them, like how lovely Straun's voice is... but it made me happy, cos no one that i've had listen to them prior to this has liked them mucho... and now im like "well.. if they do tour.. i dont have to go to the show alone! yay!"... and i thought i would share, cos it made me happy. its muggy today... im sitting here, attempting to organize my cds. i didnt get to go to looper last night... and i dont get to tonite either. ::grumble:: so i think i shall bore you with this now.. cos i dont know what else to add. fresh cut grass... isnt that the nicest smell in the world? for some reason i just got a whift thru my window... may 16th isnt that far away... is it? exes and ohs, Jes +----------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the undead Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail sinister(a)missprint.org.

Sinister: IF I cOuLd WriTe PoEtRy...
by velocity farewell 16 Apr '00

16 Apr '00

Hello beautiful ones... I'm back to sinistah land after having visited my family and friends in my home city... I missed you all so much... well, it seems that the PoEtRy PaRrOt that Owen sent over to me here in sunny Greece was waiting for me to come back... I just wish that Owen could fly over here with the parrot... mmmm... but meanwhile, he was so naughty fooling around with my pooter... he went to #sinister and found pretty Julie there (cyberglam) and forced her to post a very very nice poem... isn't he really something? he's going to be a father soon and still he acts like a baby parrot... this must be the most immature parrot I came across in my entire life... he thinks that his glittering blue feathers will get him away with anything... well, not this time... he sits on my shoulder now fiffling like mad... stop it you silly bird... birdy nam-nam... mmmm well, I came up with this poem by Olivia Weatherspoon! it was written in late '40s... she's obviously influenced by the surealists... I found this poem in an anthology... I hope you'll enjoy it... "Linger" * Like a child lost his toys due to some witch's envy of his blissful innocence Reality's our only choice... but be cautious... 'cause miracles take longer but eventually they may come true... and then in a fearful explosion of boundless joy, I'll lean over to you and kiss your lips with hunger springs from all this time of loneliness... and the skies shall open wide to bare my still, tho' amazing happiness... who could blame me... you're lost in your magnetic fields** of vanity... Still, still and frozen into endless despair... will you reply..? I know you won't... As night falls down I'll make a wish to the stars, the same stars you're looking at... may this pain be fruitful... may you look at the stars and wonder about that chill that corresses your ear... may... Suddenly... you came to me and said... It's not me you're looking for... do not put this burden on me... can't stand it... sorry... it's not me, not me.... Just you and your big ideas... Half the way you moved... not even half... and you claim to be the one who had tried harder... so hard indeed... you sold me out in an oriental market... flesh... that is... flesh... Notes: * I'm sorry for any mistakes; thing is I re-translate this poem from greek, so... ** "...magnetic fields of vanity"... I think it's a reference to the book by André Breton and Philippe Soupault "Magnetic Fields" that caused a lot of talk at its era... that was it.. hope you liked it... I want to send the parrot now to Jordi Trenzano in Spain, 'cause the parrot tells me that he loves it here in warm mediteranean countries and he'd love to stay some more before he flies back north... maybe to the country of geordies... Starry, Paul F. ... be prepared!!! bye now... take care all of you sweet peas Love Vel xoxo ____________________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?

Sinister: my prom killed me
by Andrew CHurchman 15 Apr '00

15 Apr '00

hi everyone, well, again i'm here with my old friend sinister to vent a little about just how unlucky i am with love/girls. Actually it's just this one girl, that i've been crazy for the past couple months. Anway, last night was my junior prom...... I was excited, and little nervous. I thought tonight was my chance to forget all the heart brake this girl's put me through, and have a good time. well, looking back now i'm feeling a little down. I got the cold shoulder most of the night, she'd hardly talk, and the worst thing.... after slow dancing for about 30 sec. she suddenly said. " we don't HAVE to do this" and walked away. so, needless to say, i feel like shit. If anyone out there has any comforting words/advice, feel free to e-mail me. * B+S content: I played 3....6...9 seconds of light, about three times driving around with a lump in my throat. thanks for listening, Andrew __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
