Sinister: 'You'll need more than a glass of wine...shes not that kind of girl'

Hello, Today in Liverpool the weather is quite nice. Windy. Very Windy. But still nice. Did anyone see that programme the other nite about the history of house music? It was really good. The best bit was when Shaun Ryder turned up to add a few comments. He is so funny. He doesnt even try but he is so funny. He seemed to love the fact people had sex in the corners of the Hacienda. But then he would, wouldnt he. I felt shit this morning i have had a bad few weeks. I put The Boy with the Arab Strap on, sang along and jesus i feel so much better. I dont thing my mood has ever changed so quickly. It was a good thing. Someone mentioned the Magnetic fields, ive been enjoying playing their songs on my guitar a lot. They are all really simple. My favourites at the minute are Nothing Matters When Were Dancing and The Night You Cant Remember. If i was trying to get on Jools Holland, i would say... 'Ive wanted to watch Jools Holland for ages and this week i thought would be a good week to come because that twat Jamiroqui isn't on' It might just work. Laters Simple Troubadour. +-------------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail sinister(a)missprint.org.

Re: Sinister: march goodness by the sea /Athenian PiCnIc
by Joan of Dark 23 Nov '01

well well well..... Just WHO else could it be in this cruelly small hour in the morning?? *yaawn* me myself, springing up from my lurkedom to light up the sinister skies like a firework soon to burn out, only to follow up dahling's post, and after taking my turn, announcing the 1st official Sinister PicNic in AtHeNs-GrEeCe in March.... 1)People DO come..... I know this is a reason good enough in itself, but i shall explain in more detail in the lines to follow.... 2)I think the date Stacey chose for is just perfect...the weather starts getting mild here and the whole scenery gets unbearably beautiful, the air so sweet and the sky SO blue... But even if there is any sudden drastic change in the weather forecasts, we can always have the eating and the drinking held indoors, that is... a)either Stacey's appartment (so you get to listen to the bunch of ex-heroin addicts screaming their lungs out every evening howling their names to each other and the moon... Nikos:"EIMAI O NIKOOOOOOS!!!" the rest of the bunch: "KAI O NIKOS EINAI KALAAAAAAAAA!!!!!!" translation: I AM NIIIIICK! NICK IS OK AS WEEEEEEL!!!! tempting , doesn't it sound?? ;o) b)or my house -i have my very own floor now in the house- and we can throw empty beer cans and garbage in my hateful neighbours' swimming pool.....hehehe....once i had thought about throwing a bucket of red paint, the kind that is used in cooking, in their pool and watch them next morning when they'd come out in their garden... I haven't carried this out yet but ....with a little help from my friends???...;o) 3)...so if you come here you can do bad bad things with me as well... not with Stacey...she's an angel in this briery patch of land.... 4)here are SO many cool little places we can go to, either for records, coffee, food or dancing,drinking,acting,silly passing out.... As Stacey had once said...there is an uncovered Greek indie scene, another world lurking in the shadows and you'd never believe the kind of people you might see sometimes when you go out in the night... I don't either... If we are lucky enough a concert might occur as well and that is well.....the best thing that could ever happen to us... Last year Teenage Fanclub played here in March...lets see what we get this year... 5)I leave all financial details and logistics(tickets, airports, beer prices etc)to Stacey as numbers is not my strong point and i think I will involve myself mostly in the accomodation/entertainment/mapping sort of thing.... I know some pretty good youth hostels for the ones that'd like to be a bit more independent and i can provide information to anyone who might ask for it , or try and find places for people to stay although i think Stacey's house and mine are enough... I can have one or two girls here at my house (sorry for the sex restriction but i still live with my parents you see and eeehh...you know....sorry) stacey said: >i flew a cheap charter flight to london (air2000..eek!) and it was AWFUL. and I say: people DO avoid this one.... it i smore commonly known among greek students that study in the UK and fly to and fro all the time as "Death (not in Vegas,but)2000" so i suppose this makes things pretty clear... 6)the place we've chosen for is just perfect, really, it is very close to my house, like 2 minutes on foot and its SO quiet and secluded, yet quite easy to reach as there are two nearby bus stops and another 3 in 5 minutes' walking distance....( I'll provide the maps as i said) very green, tall trees, some stray friendly dogs , you know the usual kind of stuff.... grass blades and ladybirds and babybirds and ants in your pants, bugs in your bags...eerrrmm.....ok I'll stop... as well as an abandoned, huuuuge fountain that is usually filled with water... And we'll be spared the trouble of all sorts of wankers lurking around and tourists and silly kids and all the noise and nonsense of other parks..not that there are so many anyway... so ummm......i think that's enough of enticement already really.... I expect REPLIES YOU KNOW!!! otherwise I'll start threatening, bullying and bugging you and I'm quite good at this latter one!! and you get to meet 4 in 1!!

Sinister: The boy with the Alphabet Soup
by Kenneth P Y Chu 23 Nov '01

23 Nov '01

A rob B and mark C and liz D all posted, what a jubil-E. F-in hell, liz talked about the hackney diamonds, well i got some on monday too. some smart arse thought he was well ghetto and ali-G, and thought it would be a grrreat idea to smash up one of the windows in my car, well let me tell you punk: that idea was so crap that even H from steps would never think of it. grr, it was a bit crap but I wasn't too miffed really it was only a small window, unlike the bottom of J-lo. as kirsten K said, "it wasn't the best but things were looking rather good." or as laura L said, "i love ken very much". wait, she never said that but i just made it up to lead me onto the next letter, in the stylee of emin-M, or maybe N-sync, but definitely not O-town cos that's pish with a capital P. You'd think now I'd have a problem fitting in the letter Q but see how I cunningly avoided the quandary? cunning at d.d.R., cunning at everything as they say, as they say, not hear'say, not S club 7 either. i want a T-shirt that says U.s.a. are V. good on it, then I can send it to george W. bush, who would say "lemme tell ya, agent X, this kenneth p Y is very wise", or would he spell wise with a Z? mental hospitals and red bulls ken p.s.: can't you see i need a holiday? why don't we have thanks giving. we can call it "cheers mate" giving.. wouldn't it be great if people say "cheers mate" in chess rather than checkmate? or daleks, imagine all those little cutie robots go around saying "cheers mate" rather than exterminate. The PRML SCRM album will then have to be called CHRSMT, which can almost spell Christmas. I can't wait til Christmas!!! _________________________________________________________________ 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: I am not a rock band
by Daplyn Elizabeth 23 Nov '01

23 Nov '01

...but I R!O!C!K! the house. No, really, I do. Ask anyone. Anyone who was around these parts back in the days of yore when I occasionally posted, that is. I've been here off and on since before I was universally challenged, which is a good five years now. Crikey. Still, entering the ranks of (temporary) corporate whoredom (oo-er Ms) has the advantage of free email, as does having a desk at which no-one can overlook what I'm doing on my computer. So, emerging from the nursery once more like a sartorially-challenged butterfly, here I am. People who were loafing around Camden last Saturday will have seen me, myself and my big black jumper inhabiting the pub for a few hours. It's funny how recently I've been regressing to my adolescent practice of dressing nearly entirely in black, but with rather less of a crippling sense of self-consciousness. Still acutely self-conscious, just not crippled by it anymore - only mildly sprained, as Minnie Driver said in Grosse Point Blank. Anyway, good pubnic, y'all. I still want to know who was using yer man Ken's buttocks as a pillow later that night, though. Curse Shepherd's Bush and all its housewarming parties! Will Salt (or Salty Will - heh - an epithet surely applicable to an ancient bluesman of the highest stamp) = very blond, no? It occurred to me while supping a tasty pint of apple derivative on Saturday that (from my own observations) Sinister is predominantly brunette, unless there are hordes of platinum starlets out therre who haven't been showing themselves. After all, the best looking girls might _well_ be staying at home ;P However, this means that I call on Miss Juicy Lucy Alder to once again renounce her more-or-less natural hair colour and hit the bleach in order to redress this balance somewhat. I would, but my hair is alarming enough without making it light up at night. To segue non-secretarially: Anyone (with better-than-average taste) who heard tompaulin in session on John Peel the other night will have been thrilled by their wry loveliness. Is there *by any chance* anyone in the house who can tell us if there is any associated product available for us to waste our pocket money on? I have my suspicions... It's odd, but no matter what combination of twisty reggae, twee techno, and wailings of skinny boys lamenting their lovelessness that Mr Peel plays of an evening, I never fail to be soothed, unlike the effect of the medulla-crushing arse (now _there's_ an arresting visual, if you like) that is currently spewing out of the office radio. John Peel should be marketed as a comforting blanket. No, wait, he already is... Vandalised bus shelters are, conversely, not reminiscent of comforting blankets at all. They can be startlingly beautiful, though, what with scattered cubes of safety glass scattered around ('Hackney diamonds', I read somewhere) or crazed mandala patterns radiating from the focal points of not-quite-hard-enough blows and looking like imitations of gorgeous spiderwebs laid down by secret crafty hands. But it might just be me that likes them. I've spent considerably more than 15 minutes composing this, as I was dragged off to a BIG GROWNUP MEETING halfway through. Criminy! Deathless prose it ain't, but I'll inflict it on you anyway. Love and shenanigins, Liz D :x *i think that i shall never see a person lovely as a tree* +-------------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail sinister(a)missprint.org.

Sinister: Champaign for my real friends...
by JAMES GILMER 23 Nov '01

23 Nov '01

...and real pain for my sham friends. To be brutally honest, I don't usually have much time for Thanksgiving. I'm not much of a holiday person to begin with, and Thanksgiving really doesn't have the same spark as Santy Claus day does, but what the hell. I got to spend today with my family, some of whom I don't care for much, and others that I couldn't live without. I got to see my niece today, and a more brilliant 12 year old I'd be hard pressed to name. We talked about music and Harry Potter and her track team and she beat me in a race to the end of the block. She also told me the card I sent her, a card with a sketch of Christopher Robin and Pooh on the cover I sent her from Belgium this summer, is proudly hanging in her locker at school. So, I suppose I do have a lot to be thankfull for. A brilliant niece, good family, patient parents, and the best friends I could wish for. I'd rather have them here with me, as I type this, my monthly cigarette dangling from my mouth and the buzz of a few RB&V's fading away. But some of them are at their families, and some of them are scattered across the county, and some of them are even scattered across the world. If there's ever a time I doubt myself, or feel a bit down, the one thing I can do is look around at my friends, and I know anyone who can have the collection of friends I have isn't all bad. If the measure of a man is his friends, then all I can say is that I must have done *something* right in a past life to deserve my friends, and not a day goes by when I'm grateful for the lot of them. So, if you'll forgive me a bit of a soft moment, I'm feeling extremely grateful to all the wonderful friends I have and I have made, and I don't say lightly that if it wasn't for them I wouldn't be here. Anyways, a toast to all my friends, on the list and off, because it's the day to give thanks to the things that are important to us, and nothing could ever be more important than friends. A good deal of them aren't on the list, but to the ones that are, cheers. A tip of the glass especially to Laura Llew, Kirsten, Emily and Sean, Amy Longcore, Amy Bancroft, Sean and his sweetheart (the sister I *wish* I had) Elise Spry, ~stine, and to the whole bloody lot of you: Happy Thanksgiving. There, I promise the next post will see me back to my old cursing, cynical self. Cheers!

Sinister: what's new
by Kirsten Kenyon 23 Nov '01

23 Nov '01

it does feel good to be brave. yes, and sometimes people surprise you.....sometimes you're expecting a scowl and a red face and a loud voice, and what you get is someone who listens and asks questions quietly....and calls you "pumpkin." oh yes, pumpkin. no pie for me... thanksgiving....i came down with a bad headache around three o'clock and took to my room for the remainder of the evening. around five, my sister and my cousins and my puppy came pouring in and jumped on me in my bed and tried to wake me up, and i tried to be fun but my neck hurt just horribly so i stayed there under my blankets and had a strange dream about a white- haired girl who was constantly powdering her face. i think i went to high school with her, but never really knew her. it's funny, the things lodged in the back of our minds...i can't imagine why i dreamt about that girl. when i finally woke up, it was dark outside. i went downstairs and the relatives were all sitting around the big table in tweed trousers and wool sweaters, laughing and picking at the remains of the evening's feast...butternut soup and roasted potatoes, brined turkey...the candlelight reflecting off their rosy faces, off the wine bottles, off the windows. if i'd had a camera, i could have taken a nice photograph for an eddie bauer catalog. or bon apetit. something. i ate some green beans and a slice of bread and i had another beer, and then i was very full and the relatives all went home, and i thought about how holidays used to be such a big deal. i think they probably still could be, but not because they're holidays....you know? i don't know. today wasn't the best, but things are looking rather good. love kirsten Care2 make the world greener! http://www.care2.com - Get your Free e-mail account that helps save Wildlife! +-------------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail sinister(a)missprint.org.

Sinister: This is just a hello e-mail anyways...
by Ana Ribeiro 23 Nov '01

23 Nov '01

Or at least I'll try to. Hi sinister people, I'm Ana, 18-years-old brazilian girl (hmn, what else??)... I love belle and sebastian (well, that's pretty obvious...), even though I like many other stuff, sp. metal, people think it's weird to love the sweetest thing, B&S, and at the same time love really hard songs, reeeeeally hard. But that's me.... I do economics at University of Brasilia, it's lovely and boring and exciting at the same time, well, this is just a weird course but...... hmn... I'm doing this french play "Les fous du paradis" (the mad people of paradise, or something like that) that really takes all my free time, but that's good... going to present it this december, think it's december 4, 5 and 6, but I'm not sure ... got my driver's licence two days ago and I'm driving all the time, love to. I thought it would be cool to introduce myself, so when I want to post something you won't be all like "who the hell is she anyways?"... Hmn, I think that's it, I feel like asking if I'm the only brazilian here (or the only one from Brasília), yes, it's asked then, even though it's nothing but this-second-curiosity... of course I'm not the only one, 'cos Fabio is from Brazil too... and I must agree with him that Multishow (the TV station that broadcasted B&S's Rio's concert) sucks... and Stevie's portuguese isn't only funny... rather cute, he really tried to do something pretty good, that was sweet. Take care, Ana PS: Wrote that listening to Jonathan David, it's lovely.

Sinister: for which we are truly thankful
by Bdh52983＠cs.com 22 Nov '01

22 Nov '01

Well the one good thing that came out of this Thanksgiving day already is that I have pulled out my copy of Tigermilk which has been sitting getting badly scratched up for the last several months :D So far so good there are no major skipping problems... I'm going out for a buffet lunch/dinner thing today at this local catering place. Some of my friends work there maybe they can slip me some pumkin pie "under the table" or something. This year I suppose that all it would take to make me truly happy would be an east coast B&S tour, but since that's already been discussed here to some length I'll let it be. Have a nice Thanksgiving day everyone even those not in the U.S. yeah +-------------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail sinister(a)missprint.org.

Sinister: offtopic: tape requests
by Snoozer/ Maíra Ezequiel 22 Nov '01

22 Nov '01

Sorry to bother you Sinister List, but this way is easier to get in touch with everyone. The thing is: I Need Help!!!! There are 16 addresses so far and perhaps i'm going to receive more. Some lovely people offered me the greatest trades i could ever get, but the fact is: they're too many for me to send. I've sent a mail to a friend who works in the Central Post Office and i'm still waiting for a reply, but i don't think it will be cheap to send all these tapes. Still, I DO want to send tapes to everyone. ;) But I need some kind of help. For example, there are some people from same countries (Sweden, US, Scotland) and even some from the same States (Texas, Michigan,...), so if some of you could also copy the tapes for yourselves it would leave one tape for me to send to each region of the world. Another important thing is: some of you gave me the tip of the video format used in Europe, that are different from the US. Well, i really need more information on that, because brazilian VCRs come with both formats: NTSC and PALM. But are you from Europe, Japan and New Zealand really sure you'll be able to watch the tape??? Please, if you know anybody who deals with electronics, get some info about these formats. And last, but not least, for the ones who asked about how to send money (this way you don't need to send anything in return of course): you have to find out if there's a Banco do Brasil agency where you live, or, if your bank has some conection with this federal brazilian bank. I know that there's plenty of agencies around the world, but i don't know where. If you find out, i'll pass the numbers and then i can send the tapes immediately. Woof! I don't wanna sound like everything's too difficult. I'll stick to the Beatles: WE CAN WORK IT OUT! :.)))) Here are all the people who sent me addresses.
