Sinister: Boys are scary.
by Schaffenberger, Kristen 29 Apr '00

29 Apr '00

So, the not-often-discussed Will writes: >Now, on to business: >I am almost done with school. In like 3 weeks, I'll have my master's >degree and I'll make rude gestures toward Texas out the back window of >my >car as I speed off to civilization. The funny thing is that I was just >beginning to get comfortable here. Oh well. Boo. I finish school even sooner, but I don't leave Texas until September. Nevertheless, London awaits! I'm most looking forward to arriving on foreign shores to meet and greet the UK sinister kids. So, I don't think girls are scary. But I do think boys are a little scary. Case in point: my birthday was last week. I've been seeing a boy on an extremely casual level, and he was rather rude at my birthday party (e.g., drinking a little more than he could handle, acting relatively silly in all respects, etc.). I saw him yesterday for the first time since the party, and he's all grinning and proud of himself, and he's like, "I got you something!" I, of course, assume that he's off and bought me Pokemon: The First Movie or some loveable plush toy in the $20-$30 range. Needless to say, I'm puzzled when he hands me a small box. Inside is this absolutely lovely diamond tennis bracelet. I later find out from a mutual friend that he worked extra days and put away a lot of extra money to buy it. Without question, it's absolutely lovely, and it was an incredibly sweet gesture. At the same time, though, he's like, "Well, here you go" with the whole thing and acting all casual and.. and... well, I think it's just plain weird. Moreover, when I thanked him for said bracelet, he said, "Oh, there's no need to thank me. I know you only like really nice things, so I thought I should get you something really nice." Hmm. Boys are weird. In all the best ways. Off to mail graduation invitations and announcements. I want a pink dress for my college graduation party, but I've had no luck in finding one. Any suggestions?

Sinister: ...and for those of to Reading
by Andrew_2_Lloyd＠sbphrd.com 29 Apr '00

29 Apr '00

Hi, Haven't posted in bonkers ages but this was promted by CarsmileSteve's idea of setting up an egroup for sinisrerlist members going to glasto this year. Alas I'm not going to Glasto but I shall be attending the Reading fest this year, OK I know its primarily a scary ROCK festival which may feature a little too much "headbanging" or "moshing" and Oasis for our fragile little bodies and minds, but with Pulp, Beck, the delgado's (New album has by the 10th listen become my top album of theyear, surely No Danger will become an anthem for these parts) super furry animals, badly drawn boy, and the wannadies, confirming appearances its all looking rather pleasant Who'd rule out Hefner, Clinic, and Cinerama returning this year. Fingers crossed for appearance's on the new band stage for the likes of I am kloot, butterflies of love, tompaulin, baxendale, and life without buildings. We could all laugh at Slipknots particular brand of comedy as well. And Stevie Trousse if you'd like any interviews/reviews for Papercuts there I'd happily volunteer my services......

PLEASE: No clever entries off FLAPPYCLAP, and I think it would be nice to have a list finalised by 22nd May, so, please no waiting around for Legal Man to come out so that it or Dickslap or the other one makes it in. Ive deliberately excluded Legal Man, because the idea is to work out the favourite so far, from the beginning to now. Sorry if this strikes you as very anal, but I like doing these kinds of things. Looking forward to a barrage of entries.

Sinister: legal betting
by Sam Walton 29 Apr '00

29 Apr '00

Hello everybody. Aaagh! I need the WHOLE list's help on this one. I was having an argument with my friend yesterday about the merits of B&S. He said something along the lines of "but it doesn't matter anyway because they're shite and nobody likes them". Then in a fit of passion, I said back to him, "OH YEAH? I bet they'll go top 20 when they release their new single". He says, "Fine then, twenty quid says they won't make it" I say, "Can we do ten? It's just, y'know, I'm a bit skint and all" He says, "Yeah you're right actually, so am I. Fair enough then. A tenner says they won't make top 20" I say, "Done". He says, "Done" Then I suddenly realise what I've done. There are two ways of winning this bet. Either I hijack Crapital radio and force them to play it to the teenyboppers all day, or I buy 1000 copies myself. OR... Everybody on the list buys two copies each? Ahhhh. Maybe it could work.... Oh well.... Sorry for the pointlessness of this post. love, Sam.x P.S. Keep those votes for your favourite song coming in. If there is sufficient call for the list to be posted again I will do so. So far I've had about 70 votes.... ________________________________________________________________________ Get Your Private, Free E-mail from MSN Hotmail 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: Weeing Over Peehole
by Kenneth P Y Chu 29 Apr '00

29 Apr '00

This week's melody maker has a track by track review of all the songs on the Foldyourhandschildyouwalklikeapeasant album... and it looks suspeciously like the post from EliotNew... now now have they been nicking ideas from our list?????? Of course, talking about melody maker this week, I ........ Ah! And just as I was gonna boast about my appearance on Melody Maker alongside StuM, that annoying chris_t_opher guy beat me to it. I now hate you forever and you will be banned from drinking RedBull for a week so no stimulation for the body and mind for you young man :-) They've edited out my slating of Steps and S Club 7 though, which I'm not happy about. Nevertheless, this moment of fame is going to be momentously framed, hung up and shown to my grandchildren... and they will all see how attractive I used to look compared to Noel Gallagher. A CD looking thing was also printed on that mm page.. if this is indeed what the CD will look like then GRATE!!! It looks wicked it's like all baige/cream/flesh colour with BELLE AND SEBASTIAN written in green and then text below in black with loads of useless info there just to look cool... it looks all modern and new age and professional and stuff... who said B&S aren't going uptown?? On a spree of backwards life living madness I have just heard the "Eurotrash" theme tune on Channel 4 for the first time... and by George, the resemblence!!!!! I think I'm gonna have to start watching Eurotrash now and sing Legal Man over their theme tune and confuse the hell out of all my mates... unless of course B&S becomes real famous then they'd all think I'm really cool (which they do already, of course) Happy MayDay in a couple of days and remember to play Mayfly.

Sinister: So much unrequited love, so little time
by Chris Paluch 28 Apr '00

28 Apr '00

Hello Sinister people, It is a particularly hot day today in the wonderfully dull area of central Illinois. I am leaving the area of cornfields and concrete in a few weeks, going out with a great sixties pop bang(getting to see apples in stereo and essex green twice:), but having enough feeling of unrequited love to take up a life time. When I first got into Belle and Sebstian, introduced to me by a friend who shall remain nameless, I was at a point of absolute social misery. I realized that people I knew and thought to be friends were jerks, and was left behind alone. The person who introduced me to them of course later became a good friend. Then as I became less miserable, I had this bad habbit of falling in love with people that I barely even knew. The fact that being introduced to a band in the music section of Barnes and Nobles represents a positive turning point in my social life is something of enigma even to me. So, now I am leaving in a few weeks with being educated for four years at some midwestern private university, and now I am begining to better know people that I should have talked to a long while ago, and that feeling of love is turning into one of just a need of a short term frienship before i go. I am begining to feel better that my love for some individuals went unrequited, and I am moving on once again. Silence to can be comforting. I am begining not to regret that inherant shyness that I have had since I was fairly small. There are those times in which a close circle of friends matters more. Though it is getting more painful to leave good friends behind. Now I know why I listen to B&S at times all alone... Off to Chicago and then Vermont, where winter will hopefully be kind to me. Sorry for this long semi personal letter, but I kinda felt it was necessary in some way. Sorry for saying sorry.
