Sinister: the original Death Cab For Cutie strikes back!
by carle groome 12 Oct '01

12 Oct '01

(still mired in the backlog of weblog) and yet another piece of the sinisterine chapel comes into view out of the rubble of the big apple (sliced) hello all. This goes out to the increasingly rare geezers and geezettes among the dispatchers and dispatchees. It was on the birthday of John Lennon that me mate and me went off to hear the next best thing (arguably) in the person of Neil Innes. I could cite the Bonzo Dog Doo Dah Band as a major influence on my salad days, but that would short his work with Monty Python as well. (I mean, at an audience request he even did "Brave Sir Robin" to end with the aside, "I cant believe it took some of the best minds of Oxford and Cambridge to come up with those lyrics") And if I say "The Rutles," there should be a rousing cheer and occasion cause enough for heads to nod in agreement to the aforementioned overweening enthusiasm spasm. You see, whist in the throes of ecstacy (not phramochemically induced), it occurred to me that the same reason I have an affection for the Beatles is the same reason I love B&S: great huge whopping catalogs of tunes of ultra-high quality in such a fantastic variety. Which brings me back to Neil. You see, as much as The Rutles were a parody of the Beatles, they were a truly stunning parody, and Innes innate melody skills and talent for copying the Fab Fours style and riffs could give the brothers Gallegher a run for their money. (And just to prove that it isnt just one Oasis that he visits, that it isnt just one field of study that he specializes in, he also showed an uncanny ability to ape the Elton John-Bernie Taupin stylee with an eerily familiar-but-brand-new number called "Godfrey Daniel." I mean stunning.) But, of course, it was when he let the Dog out that I was happiest. "Urban Spaceman" opened the show with Georgia and Ira on slide whistles. (Oh, I forgot to mention that Yo La Tengo was his backing band.) And yes, he did look mighty spiffy in his silver-grey mop-top cut. At the conclusion of the number, "Well, that does it for the Show Biz part of the show" and prompty removed the wig to reveal a chrome dome. "Wot? Dont laughthere are people all over California who look like that." And its a good thing he did. Otherwise how would he be able to put on the ducks head for "How Smart To Be An Idiot" and a Stetson for the "Donkey Song" (which defies immediate description). Theres that showmanship thing that never leaves the stage for long, and, in that, I guess I still see faint shadows of Lennon the Prankster. Still, the songs To go from "Idiot" to "Doubleback Alley" to "Youre So Pusillanimous" to "Cheese & Onions" to "Humanoid Boogie" is like saying: so what else can you do to keep me grinning like a lunatic? And it shouldnt go without re-mentioning Yo La Tengo. Ira confessed (on his only mike speech) that the week spent with Neil was one of the best he could recall in a long time and that Neil responded with a remark that Ira had made about them "being the best band aroundin their price range." Nobody who watched Ira go into his amplifier hunch on the psychedelic Rutles/Bonzos numbers would doubt that. Yes, a grand night for us anglophiliac geezers. You should check him out if he passes by (with or without the back-ups) and the websites funny too. (www.neilinnes.org) Oh well, time to "Get Up And Go" Ta. +-------------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail sinister(a)missprint.org.

Sinister: Did I walk past a couple of sinisterines last night and not say hello?
by Gordon 12 Oct '01

12 Oct '01

I was sort of aware of two persons walking past me and she asked the other 'is that Gordon?' and I marched on and it was because I was at the stage of looking pretty by a short sighted person at a distance and stinking of Baileys-fuelled puke. All over my Jermyn St. tailored Italian trousers. I'd been to see Heather Nova, and as the tension had built up to her rather late appearance on stage I'd drunk close to a bottle of the stuff and gee-whizz... it stinks. Sang a bee-gees cover as an encore. Staying Alive? Is that the bee-gees? All earlier. By the time I was walking up past the city chambers it was after having done three other things, kinda gestural and desperate. I laid meeself down to sleep on the steps of the art college, arm outstretched. 'Must be a heroin addict' 'Must be a student' I heard voices say untill I was offered an ambulance then I walked to the Royal Infirmary where I was told to call the Samaratins cos the doctor deals with 'broken bones and stuff'... no wonder girls cut themselves in order to get attention. More guts than I have. I simply throw mine up. Trying to explain, but I'm not incoherent enough. I also explained that I was very, very drunk. I wandered into the grounds of the Cathedral and to the gravelled sanctuary of the south portal, but figured this was a bit too heavy, so I was walking back to an hotel I'd reserved a room in, in Buchanan St., and that was as I was walking past. Fantanstic Dani Behr show on children's BBC1 this morning. The TV was all fuzzy but no double vision, so I saw fat cartoon Sumi Wrestlers 'big butts! big butts! the audience choruses, taking on exploding ballet dancers and another show that had replicas from various movie scenes... someone with puppy eyes and smart women around, all stealing the Koh-I-Noor and a grey thing like a Pink Panther but... whoo a Green Serpent that makes someone invisible. Earlier than any of that, I decided to visit the Saracen's Head, as recommended by Mr. Miller. I bought an L-size polo shirt for which someone had to go down a trapdoor behind the bar to fetch. Someone's writing a history of the establishment. Evidently, people send the polo-shirts to relatives in Canada. I'll probably wash and iron mine and send it to someone too.

Sinister: jeepster creepsters......
by caleb ben moore 12 Oct '01

12 Oct '01

well i was bored on my lunch break as usual and went to the jeepster chat room. for the first time mind you. i began talking to someone in the room and they asked me if i was a belle and sebastian fan and i of course said "oh yes, i'm quite sinister." and they said, "what do you mean?" so i said " it's a term used to describe b&s super-fans" they replied "i'm quite familiar with the term." so i asked, "are you on the sinister list?" they replied, "uh, ....no." so i said "oh you should be, it's a very nice warm close-knit community" and then the person said the kicker: "i've made a conscious decision NOT to join the list. we around here feel it's SO pubescent." pubescent. she actually used that word. i had no idea that there was beef between the jeepsters and the sinisters.......suddenly i felt like i was surrounded in enemy territory! i hid in the shadows and made a hasty exit while no one was looking...... so could someone please explain the history here? i'm intensely curious to know about this rift between the fans.......... long live the sinister nation! ta! caleb ben ===== And when I'm lying in my bed I think about life and I think about death and neither one particularly appeals to me and if the day came when I felt a natural emotion I'd get such a shock I'd probably lie in the middle of the street and die I'd lie down and die ------morrissey __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?

Sinister: Excitement all around.
by Timothy Meskers 12 Oct '01

12 Oct '01

Hi everyone; It's been a little while since I've posted anything, just wanted to say hello and tell you what I've been up to lately. TRAVIS SHOW So I saw Travis last weekend down at the Electric Factory. They aren't one of my favorite groups or any- thing but I do really enjoy them. In the queue some- one commented on my homemade Belle & Sebastian patch, which was very refreshing. I was asleep in the audi- torium at school the other day and this girl kept calling me Sebastian in an attempt to wake me up. I guess she thought Belle was my girlfriend. I told her they were a band, and she should listen to them and she just sort of nodded. So it was refreshing to talk to someone who liked them, let alone knew they were a band. Let alone didn't think that I was Sebastian. Travis were a lot of fun live, I was amazed at their thorough rock-and-roll-ness. They really put on an excellent show. We waited outside for a spell and eventually they came out, Fran wearing a huge black wig which was a bit of a laugh. I gave him a hug just because, and Dougie said he lost one of his button badges while he was onstage so I gave him one of mine off my bag. He put it on his denim jacket. "You're a *____ing king," he said, in his wonderful accent. I hope he keeps it. I'd be thrilled to see him on t.v. sporting a little I Love New Jersey pin. I gave him a hug too. Such nice guys! So we walked back to our car and drove home, very happy about our night. And we didn't get lost either. A WALK IN THE PARK I got a job working for the National Park Service, in the library. It's pretty fun. It's a nice change of pace from the CD store, which I no longer work at. They got a cool new book in about Spiders and I encourage you all to come in and visit me. I'm scared of spiders in real life but we can look at it. You will agree that it is nicely done indeed. MY CAR Is sadly being taken apart due to the fact that it would stall whenever it came to a stop sign, or whenever I took a turn slowly, forcing me to drive through stop signs and/or at speeds of excess. It will hopefully be back together by the end of the weekend. I'M THRILLED To hear posts from Astrid and Will "Gneissy" Salt. Keep up the good work guys, your posts are quite endearing. This post actually had *the f-word in it quite startlingly placed, but I erased it when I started to think of Astrid maybe writing lyrics for her punk band or doing whatever she does and reading it and saying, "How rude," although, in Swedish, because I think Swedish has a nicer sound than English. At least, the way I speak it. Speaking of Sweden, the (International) Noise Conspiracy is coming back to Philadelphia. I'm bursting at my proverbial seams with excitement. That actually was relevant because they actually are Swedish. THE OCEANS FILLED FULL OF MONSTERS Been reading: Irvine Welsh: Glue v/a: Children of Albion Rovers (there's a few s/s in there i didn't care for, though) David Sedaris: Me Talk Pretty One Day. I'm not done yet but so far I like it. Been listening to: Locust: Flight of the Wounded Locust 7" Graham Coxon: The Sky is too High (Has anyone heard his new one yet? I can't get it over here.) The Rentals: Seven More Minutes Everything Belle & Sebastian goes without saying, of course. Anyways, there's a show tonight at Alex T's, so I'm going to go get ready. I hope you're all well. Love, Timothy. xoxo _________________________________________________________________ Get your FREE download of MSN Explorer at http://explorer.msn.com/intl.asp +-------------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail sinister(a)missprint.org.

Sinister: Lucksmiths in Glasgow
by Mouche75＠aol.com 12 Oct '01

12 Oct '01

Hi I don't know if this has been mentioned, ot if it's even had much publicity, but The Lucksmiths are playing in Glasgow on October 24... ummm... I think it's in The Postgraduate Club in Glasgow University and (get this!) it only costs three pounds! I think if you email dani(a)ecosse.net you can find out more. Which is what I'm about to do.

Sinister: Open days are far aways...
by Nik Ovenden 12 Oct '01

12 Oct '01

Will Salt said: "Maybe I should invite listees to move in, and she'd stay away all the time." Disturbingly enough, this post coincided with my decision to let one fly on the site. Hello and welcome. EDINBURGH OPEN DAY Being a wee southern jessie, i am catching the bus tuesday evening to arrive for the open day on the wednesday. I've got a place, but i'm going with a friend who's applying, y'see, and she's scared. We'd like to stay over in the city. Well, we have to. Our tickets say so. The problem is that we'd very much like to see the night-type places to go. This problem extends to the fact that most B&B's (and the youth hostel) lock us out at 11pm. Pleeeeeeeeeeease can anyone recommend any places where we can get a bed and then stay out till 3am before returning? Of course, if any edinburghy listees could offer us a piece of floor, i'm sure some presents, cd's, booze etc. would be forthcoming. Do i sound desperate? I fully encourage begging... I hope someone can help, since it'd be a copout to travel for 12 hours only to stay in once we ge there... Oh, and if any listees are actually going to the open day, can you email me? I've got 36 hours to kill once i get into the city, only a small fraction of which do i have plans for. Plea over, now for the rambling. I haven't posted since, as the politicians darkly call it, "the events of September 11th". However, i was pleased to read your comments. I adopted a new yorker to share my sympathy with, as i have problems with expression. and impressions. I said, all pandora left was hope, so what else can we do? CD's really really have been posted! to all of you except a couple, who i'm waiting on replies to see if you really want them, or want others as well. On this note, i now have a bootleg of Elbow/Goldrush and Spiritualized. I saw 3 gigs last week, and didn't bootleg the Beta Band as i decided to drink wine all evening instead. Wine A drink i always rejected as girly, but my new programme of tolerance has led for me to discover that it isn't really that bad...especially after 7 glasses in a hot gig venue. Travelling. I suppose now is the time, as my pleas grow thick with desperation, to mention that next year i intend to travel the world. Thus, any listees in Russia, India, China, Japan, Egypt, Australia, New Zealand, Brazil, Mexico, USA and Canada that would be interested in meeting me (and perhaps offering me a floorboard to sleep on) are welcome to email me. I have an extensive array of bribery to make it worth your while. forward your demands, and they will be met post-haste. If no-one mails, i suppose i'll just trudge along. But since i have only met 2 listees (one of which i was romantically involved with for many years, the other i managed to chat with for 5 minutes at the 3rd festival we both attended), i'd love to raise the stakes with some international-listee-meetings! Well, this has gone far enough. While the will jokes are funny, they still don't beat the "Nicholas girls shouldn't climb trees" joke which infected my first 10 years of life... All the best, Love Niko xxx __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Make a great connection at Yahoo!

Sinister: Chufactor
by Rachel 12 Oct '01

12 Oct '01

HELLO SINISTER!!!!! I just want you all to know that I'm so happy to read every single one of your posts! I appreciate the fact that there is room to be silly (as you know I am) serious, poetic, informative, creative and sweet. Sinister is a grate place to be. There have been a lot of posts lately, and I had some things to say about some of them! First, A shout out to the Sweden posse, AN, Astrid and Daniel!! I hope you get a picnic together! It would be so fun to read about! Kirsten Kenyon said: "maybe i'll publish my own bible someday, complete with bosch paintings and little knock-knock jokes in the footnotes, and a handy ring-bound day planner with photo sleeves sandwiched between malachi and matthew." I am picturing a new sect starting up, studying the Kirsten Kenyon version of the bible and I'm trying to imagine what that congregation would look like! This struck me as being extremely funny!! mmmmmm, sacralicious! There were some really wonderful posts from Gordon, I was really impressed when Gordon wrote: "The world is too cynical to recognise a straightforward failure and too daft to see a subtle success. I'd be the world on both points were it not for... dreams." I think that speaks for so many of us, doesn't it? And new "Honorary Rachel", Shannon Pop-tart, HR wrote: "While it's not raining now, the air is thick and heavy, and surely it will during the night. I hope I wake to thunder, and raindrops pattering on the window. That would be perfect. Even more perfect than right now, that is." I wish we would get a good storm here in the L.A. area... Shannon, your description has me longing to wake up to stormy sounds! The summer is still clinging to us here, though. It is extremely windy and hot today. Let the brush fires begin!!! Robster Brennan wrote a grate post!! The final paragraph did me in. Especially where he said: "I began to think of cities laid waste and human suffering. I wanted to think of things that didn't make me feel like the world was bigger and uglier than I could handle." I find myself trying desperately not to think about this war too much because it's sickening and I feel really helpless. The thought that this war could go on for years is a little hard to conceptualize, nor do I want to. I might as well just go into hibernation until the world is a better place... but that would probably be until hell freezes over. It makes me sad. I am finding that I'd much rather live my life like a movie in my head. Sir Richard Gillanders wrote something that really tickeled me: "adding 'pal' to the end of a sentence can make it seem threatening. or just rude. unless you can do it in a post-ironic way. try it yourself." Ok! I am finding that I'd much rather live my life like a movie in my head, pal! Jarkko wrote some heavy sentiments down. I got to thinking about not liking Belle & Sebastian anymore because it reminds me of HIM. Now I have 2 people I think of mostly when I listen to the music. I tried not to let it get to me, though I did go off of them for a few months after the heartbreak from said boy #1. But now, Belle & Sebastian mostly just reminds me of ME and these days I'm pretty easy to deal with. For me, anyway. You take care of yourself, you're worth it. Archel Toast posted my most favorite statement yet: "'hey, i'm NAKED here, lady'" or she can try it a'la Richard Gillanders "hey I'm naked here, PAL!" I find the term "Lady" to be just as derogatory as "Pal" is, personally... I use it quite often while driving! Even when telling little kids to get out of the street "Hey, move your bike, LADY" and she's eight! That cracks me up. And yes, I'm a lame-ass! Katie the finger cutter said: "I also organized all my art for the AP art application I need to fill out this week. And I then realized that I am not as good as I thought I was, so I painted and came up with new ideas to build a portfolio." This is always good. As an artist, you will constantly be reworking your portfolio, and I doubt that you will ever look through it and feel that you're as good as you thought you were. At least, that's what always happens to me! Ian Nicolson said: "Someone once (only once) asked me what the difference between a violin and a fiddle was (is?). I thought it was going to be a joke, but was sorely disappointed. If anyone can think of a punchline then you can win all our admirations and rest in the knowledge that you're far funnier than me. Or at least cleverer." The difference is a jug of moonshine that is 3/4 gone, I believe! ;) James Thorniley wrote about a rather thorniley subject: "So? Boxers or briefs? It's a curious question. Which is the norm? Honestly now? Does everyone assume it's boxers cos that's what the hard kids wear? Do skinny indie boys wear briefs? I mean I do, so that makes one skinny indie boy, but what about the rest of you? Hmm? How about we take sweepstakes on what Ken Chu is wearing then pull his trousers down to find the answer!" Are we taking bets? I'm going to guess briefs! and speaking of Ken's underwear... LAURA LAURA LLEW, WHERE ARE YOU? I *love* Laura's post even though they're few and far between these days! I have to say that I find Laura to be extremely clever and I love anyone who can refer to themselves in third person, but especially Laura. I kind of wish she was a Rachel, she's *that* cool! But a rose by any other name... A shout out to Tyler Rentz!! Kirsten Kenyon is beautiful. Didn't you know? And according to her, she is "mario andretti in an ally sheedy parka" and you gotta love a girl like that! Now it's time for something I like to call *************DIDN'T CHU KNOW?******************** A fool and his red bull are soon parted... so be smart and mix yours with vodka, please! **************ON THE 'BATTLE OF WILLS' FRONT************ I have gotten some responses from you Sinisterines about the Battle of Wills v. Rachels v. Christophers, and it's shaping up to be a real scream! I still need to know if Ken will be the judge and if anyone else wants to participate in making the mix tape. It's not going to be as hard as it sounds, I promise! And it's not going to be an entire tape of The Strokes, White Stripes and Hefner, either! Well, maybe... You want to know something so twee? Elise and her Sinister love, Sean are together in Wisconsin right now! Yippeee! Another twee thing about list romance... Colin Boy is *so* adorable... but he's probably two-timing me this weekend with another Sinister girl, the illustrious Amy Bancroft!!! *sigh* Oh well, tomorrow I'm seeing the ever-charming Sinister nursery dweller, Ryan, whom will make himself known once he's able to, I'm sure! So, I guess it's only fair... We will be with you at the Chicago picnic, in spirit! Tell us all about it kids!!!! Shout outs to the Rachel posse! the wee Rachels Grapenut and Cornflake, Rachels UK Sunny Side Up and Archel Toast and soon to be UK Rachael from Australia who has no breakfast name yet! And of course the honorary Katie Cheeriodle, HR and Shannon Pop-tart, HR! And you too, Will "Rachel Porridge" Salt! !Viva Rachels! Shout outs to all of you who read this whole post, too!!! I adore you! Love to you all (and kisses for Colin!) Rachel fruitloop __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Make a great connection at Yahoo!

Sinister: I wanna Be Rachel Floppydiskdrive
by Joe Vester 12 Oct '01

12 Oct '01

I am definitely going to be a Rachel, if they'll have me ( don't get me wrong, I like the Wills( and the Chrises(?)) as much as anyone else, I just think Rachel's a cooler name. And you don't get to make up your own surname with the Wills). I think the mix tape idea rawks. (I show my talent for using a piece of slang only after everyone else has stopped using it) but I don't imagine it's just a B&S tape, is it? Because if so, some poor person will be left with only "Beyond the Sunrise" as all the good songs will have been taken already. 'Travels on the Underground or, "Why is it that people on seats on the tube always get off after you?"' is the title of my new book. I admittedly haven't wriiten the book yet but am sure it's very good, at all non-existant bookstores NOW! (Non-existant bookstores sell books that don't exist, they exist themselves, obviously)(I suspect I don't know how to spell non-existant). SAM WALTON, Is that you in NME this week? Talking about Oasis and saying they're no good now? "I'll have a double Maths with Extra Chemistry and French, please", I was thinking of saying to the epsilon-minus semi-moron at MacDonalds today, but I didn't, Not that I'm a regular Mcdonald's customer, you understand. I am doing a lino-printing thingie in Art today and have decided only to use the colours Red, white and Black, at least for some of it. I am thinking of doing repeats of the ones that look best in the end and sending them off to the White Stripes, maybe they will use it as their next cover (hopeless dreaming) 'Sinister' has, omigod, become a sort of catchphrase with the posse-boys at my school. It worries me, as these lot are all such (expletive Deletive, like on Radio4)s! I also am not sure if there is another word for posse-boys, but I think it's quite a good name if there isn't. Posse-boys are boys who hang around, go out with, posse-girls. I have had that Modjo tune in my head all day, I like it, but It's irritating me sooo much.

Sinister: sorry hit send by mistake (chicago meet up)
by GoGoEcho＠aol.com 12 Oct '01

12 Oct '01

Ok as for all us kids who don't live in Lombard or the western burbs but the actual city where do you want to meet up? I've talked to Stine about where to meet up with the crew coming from her house and she told me to repost my Lincoln Park Idea. I was saying earlier in the week that Lincoln Park is probally a better idea to meet up in because it has the Zoo which is free and the Conservatory as well also free. It is also closer to bars and resturants anyhow that's just my thought. So what does everyone thing and what time are we meeting. adam P.S. I don't think we've made final plans have we? +-------------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail sinister(a)missprint.org.
