Sinister: You, tis true, have fine black eyes, Taper legs, and tempting Thighs,

I have the vid for the Wrong Girl. Official Matador Version. I posed as a writer for some web site, and the guy from matador traded the video for some dot com schwag. There are a bunch of videos on icrunch. Or at least there were. There were lots. Lots more than just the two mentioned. I'm not sure how the band would react to the fans getting together and compiling a video tape of the videos. Not well, I imagine. I'd be happy to shell out the $20 for the special DVD Belle and Sebastian Video with liner notes by Isobel and Norman Mailer. But if we get the imperatur from someone in the band to this list, perhaps we could, in fact, go ahead with it.

Sinister: I'm Just Gonna Bask In The Glow Of A Soon-To-Be Mother
by David Moore 27 Dec '01

27 Dec '01

Hi All, Too late - I thought I could be the only person to post to Sinister for a whole day, but I missed it! Never mind. Name dropper, thorough, statistician: all these traits sound pejorative, but its too late for this leopard to change his spots. So, more dregs from the memory of a week ago (a week ago already!!) to bore you with. I forgot to mention that although they didn't play Dirty Dream Number 2 they did do Me And The Major instead, a storming version with Stevie Reverb galloping away on the harmonica. Stuart quipped "There's no' *enough* love" at the beginning of Alone Again Or. The audience singing "She's a waitress & she's got style" & Stuart saying "It's PILES" at the end of TBWTAS. Struan was incredibly sweary all night, "fucking effing & blinding" in every sentence, even when singing hymns. I reckon he should lay off the heavy metal. Or is he trying to out-Peacock the other Stuart. Stevie wishing everyone Hare Krishna after the opening song. Then before the last song, after playing the intros to the Stones' Jumping Jack Flash (Krissmas Karaoke flashback!) & The Last Time he launched (briefly) into Day Tripper, followed by Richard & a couple of the others as a tribute to George Harrison. Some of the B&S songs sound much better now on stage than they did originally on the records, the playing more confident & the arrangements fuller (with the strings, etc.) & more sophisticated. Stuart Flanagan had the grate idea of compiling a list of B&S on video, which I don't recollect having been done before. There *was* a vid for The Wrong Girl, & the one for Jonathan David should be added. I guess that technically The Apocalypse Tube should be down twice, as each broadcast was of a different take. The live clip of TBWTAS shown on MTV was from the Bowlie: the whole gig was filmed (they should release it! - pretty, pretty please!) & some other songs were shown on 3 BBC Choice(?) programmes (The Bowlie Weekender) broadcast post-Bowlie. I recall The Kids Are Alright on TV - someone else remind us of the others please. Presumably the BBC Scotland documentary listed was The Story Of Belle And Sebastian, complete with Mr Benn voice-over. I'm not too up on Looper videos, but I am sure there have been a lot more than one. I thought Wee Karn & Co. made short films for nearly all of their songs, to be shown at gigs & as promos. Love & Happy New Year, David Moore Chelmsford, UK +-------------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail sinister(a)missprint.org.

Sinister: The Aftermath
by Madeleine McNeil 27 Dec '01

27 Dec '01

Yowser! Christmas is TRIFFIC! I have been lazing and eating and swearing and fighting and dancing and smoking and receiving and giving and reading and sleeping and being dressed like a dolly and all that other stuff that I seem to do every Christmas when I come back to my mum and dad's. Many many thanks to Paul Field and Brandt Fundak and Helen McClean(it's OK, love, I know the parcel's on its way), my Sinister Santas, for the fab stuff that I got sent. Paul Field sent me a gift that will result in me being a walking bill board, all covered with slogans. And books, books galore! I can't list them all, suffice to say that my family know me well enough to buy me more and more bits of paper covered with the printed word. Books keep me out of trouble. Actually, that's not quite true. My sister made me a stocking out of PINK things! Hello Kitty gear and stuff. Twee as fuck, the lot of it. But today I bought a big furry-hooded parker to stomp about it. And it was only £17 from Tesco. I don't know whether this makes me a canny bargain hunter or just a sad wee bucket who buys her clothes in supermarkets. I much love the idea of a B&S DVD, as my brother got a DVD player for Christmas and I want to watch something on it other than The Smashing Pumpkins. There is site that has B&S videos (is it www.icrunch.com? I may be wrong, though) but I can't make Real Player work for me. So, it has to be a DVD or VHS, please. I wonder what the videos are like? Are they embarassingly cheap and cheerful, starring Stevie's mum as "Man in Fish market" (Stevie's mum in heavy disguise, obviously)? I tend to find videos very disappointing in the main, although the early Suede videos were as close to porn for me as a 13 year old girl should get. I couldn't even watch them when my ma and pa were in the room as I blushed sooo red and thought about kissing Brett Anderson..... I tried to explain the concept of 'arms of sex' to my sister but she looked vacant and started talking to me in that odd baby voice she uses sometimes. For a 25 year old academic, she's kind of strange sometimes. I hope you all had wonderful, or at least bareable (sp?) Christmases, and that your New Years are even better. You've all made 2001 a pretty ace year for me. Love Madeleine xxx PS, Guess what, Laura Llew? I got Lemony Snicket for Christmas! _________________________________________________________________ Send and receive Hotmail on your mobile device: http://mobile.msn.com +-------------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail sinister(a)missprint.org.

Sinister: Christmas Classifieds & Hardcore Christians
by DansonHatcher＠aol.com 27 Dec '01

27 Dec '01

Chris Jones is quite possibly one smart guy I've had to keep putting off Christmas party invitation's due to some nasty bug that's had me in bed since Christmas Eve. I ring up and say "Ooooohhhh I'm sooorry (sneeze/cough/splutter) I can't really make it tonight, I'm soooo ill" and no one believes me. But now I can say "well I can't come cos I've had a nasty turn of Prolific" I'm afraid I've had to show my "skived school excessively" roots here and had to come up with a "James-Appropriate" meaning for the word "prolific" But I am now armed with a dictionary and I'll look it up later Chris, it'd better not be anything nasty. Anyway apart from just clinging to the edge of living for the past few day's Christmas was pretty darned hot this year, on Christmas Eve I went in Virgin Mega and they had a copy of the new single on sale for £2:50 on vinyl. Snapped it up and marched across town with a silly grin on my face. I'd never really had need for a record player before then though I was rather seduced by miss cola cube's one, plus I wasn't likely to get much out of my latest purchase without one. Oh it's so brill, it's like a Stereocassettetunerrecordplayer and it cost a tenner and it's fairly-ish modern, it's Panasonic circa 1986. It's also only the second radio I've come across that picks up Russian World Service, which is surely madder even than "Brazil" Last night (she said...etc) the people next door had this rave or something, it must have been some kind of festive rave, cos all you could hear was like: boom,boom,boom,boom,oohhh, bangbang,bang,bang,boom,boom,JesusChristThatSoundsNice,boom,boom,boom.... worst present this year was catching the Christmas Prolific best present this year was from me to me and it cost ten pounds .......... . . . .. ... . . . . . .. .... ...... . . . . .. . . . .. James' Unwanted Christmas Present's (mail me if you really want any of these thing's) 1:U2's Achtung Baby 2:Big (you could live quite comfortably in this) box of Quality Street check back later cos this list is likely to grow . . . .. .. .. .. ...... .......... ......... .... . . . . . . . . . . . . .... . . . . .. ... You've read this FAR you're some kinda STAR!

Sinister: Wookies bent, money spent, pants lent, and love sent
by elise j. spry 26 Dec '01

26 Dec '01

Hello Everyone 'Round the World, I's like to say a big HELLO to all of you, especially my constant email companions (you know who you are. Rach & Kirsten) whom I've been neglecting for the past two weeks, due to my FANTASTIC VACATION!!! But I'm back now, tanned, rested, and ready. Here's the (mercifully brief) story: I travelled to Baltimore a few Fridays ago, the 14th of December. There I spent ten lovely days with a very lovely boy, Sean. We saw all sorts of things, including the Hope Diamond, a sugar factory, a mysterious marijuana plant, the U.S. Capitol, lots of cute clothes, and some cool hardcore kidz. I'd say I had just about the time of my life, it was so damn fun in fact, I forgot to send postcards, which I faithfully do for *every* trip I take. After the above mentioned best vacation EV-er, I flew into snowy, cold Detroit to visit my darling James Gilmer for Santy Claus day. Now me and Jimmy are back in Wisconsin, I back at work, and Jimmy back to whatever it is he does during the day whilst I'm at my desk. And now all my girls can have their fun - Kirsten with Rich.Gill (who *does* have gas. in his car.) and my Rachie Fruitloop with Ben Apps. Girls, I hope you have as wonderful a time as I did. Bii-i-i-ig hugs and smooches to you, and I will email you just as soon as I have the time. Back to work for me - the psychiatric world needs its prescriptions called in, and appointments set up. Love to everyone...hope you all had good Christmasses, Hanukahs, Kwanzaas, Pagan thingies, or whatever else you celebrate at this time of year. Yours, Lisey __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?

Sinister: Kittens and Snow Trains
by mummy i've grazed my knee 26 Dec '01

26 Dec '01

I wanted to be prolific. So much for that. WOOPS My sinister reading has been diabolical these last few months. For some reason, I only feel comfortable reading it from the comfort and privacy of my house, not a sweaty, stinky computer room full of frantically tapping students. I'm sure I have missed a lot. Miss Gina and Asm 'The Muffin' Walton fill me in sporadically, but I feel left out. PRETTY THINGS THAT HAPPEN Snow Christmas Villages Kittens BELLE AND SEBASTIAN They seem to have been quite busy since I last spoke with Struan (ho hum, I'm in awe of David Moore's name dropping but could never hope to beat the grate man (do we still spell grate like that? Is ribena still in fashion?)). The single is nice, although I would rather Struan lost his obsession with overly lush string arrangements, but a bassoon and clarinet on a pop record! Ooooooohhh! The Tonight performance with 'head up my bum' Holland was curious. I thoroughly enjoyed it, but it seemed to be a move back to the more shambolic days of old, epitimised by Isobel's recorder part in TWATTYBUS (Do we still call it that?). It sounds like fun was had by all at the Glasgow bash. OTHER PEOPLES POSTS As ever, sinister statistician David Moore has been extremely thorough. It also appears that Apps is being a big sweety. Sherbert Dip. James Danson Hatcher is becoming as prolific as I hoped he would. Is he being trained up as the new Ken? Hannah expressed my feelings perfectly. I was in a daze for several hours after finding out that Alled Jones is an imposter As I predicted, Asm Walton's opinions are wrong. MERRY CHRISTMAS AND A HAPPY NEW YEAR As above. Chris Jones. +-------------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail sinister(a)missprint.org.

Sinister: yeh!
by Hannah Louise Brown 25 Dec '01

25 Dec '01

Ah ha! Thought i'd write a post on christmas day just for the sheer hell of it. I'm currently listening to john peel whilst nursing my aching belly. My uncle bought me the strangest present. He got me one of those battery operated dogs that yap and flip backwards? ? Quite amusing but i don't know what the hell to do with it? My sodding flat mate saw Tim Burgess (charlatans) in london the other day (as well as jarvis). He was sat in the same pub as him. I used to be obsessed with him when i was younger. not in a sexual way, i just wanted to be him. Recently i have realised how much this effected my teen years, dreesing like a bloke is probably the reason i had lots of boyfriend trouble at college. Now this faze has past i have started to grow my hair and wear girlie things, hooray! I even got chatted up by a cute 31 year old the other day and he wasn't drunk, another yey! oh, dear, i have had lots of wine this evening and feel like i am just rambling to myself. I promise i will not post tomorrow, i just feel a bit claustrophobic in this house, see some of you on saturday, is there anything happening in the evening? love hannah ps, someone sent me a strange e-mail that i don't understand +-------------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail sinister(a)missprint.org.

Sinister: Are You Festive? (II)
by David Moore 25 Dec '01

25 Dec '01

Hi All, A great long, rambling diary post - sorry! but hey, no-one is reading tonight anyway so what the hell. THURSDAY - Gig Day To The Tap for pool, drink & silliness before The Concert Not much of a review I'm afraid, Neil, more a succession of images retained by my memory. After support band Suckle (who I didn't see and didn't miss) Alasdair Gray made a speech about War, full of passion, sometimes at the expense of coherence. A large part of the audience made their position clear for the rest of the evening by heckling & chattering throughout his words. Most of the kids around me seemed determined to talk all night, if necessary shouting to make themselves heard above the noise of the band. Students for you. Clothes: I can't remember it all now. Stuart in tight white tee & slacks (surprise), Bobby in Elvis tee, Richard in ? Advertiser tee (don't think it was that Perthshire one again, though) Bob on 12 string during Turn, Turn, Turn Stuart said that The Magic Of A Kind Word was about John Phillips from The Mamas And The Papas (non-gurning) Richard reading a copy of Razzle whilst singing Cool For Cats. Stuart pretended to be offended & embarrassed when Richard showed him one of the pictures. Towards the end of the song Isobel started doing the bump with Richard, eventually hitting him a right belter with a mighty swing of her hip but he still managed to stand up. Top Man. Please Don't Let Them Make Me Be An Orang-Utan Butler Isobel wore an Orang-Utan around her waist whilst performing the song (arsemonkey!) & someone dressed in a similar costume (Tony Doogan again?) ran around the stage. The drawing of the raffle & prize giving took a little too long: Mick whiled away the time by practising his 70's heavy metal bass lines: I recognised Dazed And Confused (Led Zeppelin) & Black Knight (Deep Purple) - were there any more? During Space Oddity Stuart was doing the background countdown & seemed to have some trouble holding the correct number of fingers aloft. The Boys Are Back In Town was grate: introducing the song Stuart said that his bass (that perspex one) used to belong to someone else & that it played itself during this number. Phil Lynott would have been proud of the poses at least that he struck during the song. B&S play it with three lead guitars, one more than Thin Lizzy's original. Thin Izzy, Sarah & Chris appeared onstage dressed as "terrorists" (Lucy) or more possible primary school Nativity Play shepherds, Isobel with full beard & Chris with droopy moustache. Beans pretended to play electric guitar, going back to back with Mick, who did Townsend windmills, & Hendrix playing guitar behind head & with teeth poses. The Strange Fruit posse joined the band onstage for Merry Xmas (War Is Over), Monica Queen was there for Lazy Line Painter Jane. All the band looked like they were having fun of stage (that's right, all of them!) & I know we all did too. Thanks a lot. I hope you transported all of the gear to Belfast OK. Present: Sally, Carey, Chris, Lucy, Ally, Lixi, Mark, Vicky, Honey, Linda, Chris & Julia, Keith Watson, Ailsa, Calumn, Sarah, Jo, Richard (thanks for the TalkBox info), *** **** (mightily pissed), Jeremy, Matt, Amy, Martin, Tania, Paul, Idleberry, Iain Radcliffe, Will, Sweetie. Usual apologies to anyone I've omitted or don't know. Missed: The geezer Brooker (writing The Book?), The Petefox (sadly, due to a prior engagement shivering in Druidic robes celebrating the Winter Solstice at a henge in Wessex) I see that the B&S website has just been updated with the following: "Plans for Next Year The band are in the midst of planning some gigs for the first half of next year. Details to follow. The soundtrack album for 'Storytelling' is looking like an early spring release date. " I'll certainly be up for some more! FRIDAY - Drinking Day Following lunch at Jack McFee, Fresh From The Sea, we perused the Kelvingrove Museum & Art Gallery for a bit of culture, then walked through the dark park. I found out that Cabbage is a great (& tidy!) cook. Then on to Bacchus, where Gav was playing records, and what's more very well indeed. A great selection of tunes, accommodated most requests, kept a fantastic pace up which resulted in us drinking a lot. Who was it who said "Oh, look, they do Shooters!" & was guilty of making us consume over a dozen different liqueurs in several combination, some in stripes? Spirits were too up for bed so off to the Scotia Bar/The ? Pool Hall with Biff Starlet: being checked out through the grille before being allowed in four at a time, Elvis & The Eagles on the jukebox, blood all over the bouncer's shirt, all the guys extraordinarily respectful & polite, a bloke mopping up after he had puked on the floor, Robbo being compared to Morrissey & Quentin Tarantino (for a change). Chippy for chips with curry sauce (num num), then home, passing Strathclyde Uni on the way, The Stone Roses being played so loud inside the walls were rattling. Watching B&S & Camera Obscura videos & then falling into bed. SATURDAY - Lilly, Carey & The King Of Partick Carey took both Chris & I up the Necroplis, great views on a cold but bright sunny day. Back home for tea (Stuart Pudding!), Lucy, Honey, Linda, Ally coming round, then off to the best pub in the world in Woodlands. Horseshoe bar, closed booths in the corners, *amazingly* cheap booze, free 80's party food, 80's music, a raffle (Honey won an enormous Luxury Christmas Pudding), Christmas presents for all (I got Irish coffee glasses with a GOLD rim), Richard, Kenny from Avalanche Records, Gav & John Henderson also there, latter two telling tales from their Christmas Carol appearance at Peel Acres. Great fun, especially the girlie popfan discussion. The landlord shook all our hands & thanked us on the way out (!) Really knackered, ready for bed, so off we trooped to the Art School for a dodgy late 60's English style R&B band & Divine's great Northern Soul. Beans, Aidan Moffat & Calumn & Debbie also present. SUNDAY - Cookie Jar Lunch wi' lovely Lilly, followed by drink, sit & listen in the 13th Note. Excellent customer service skills demonstrated by the bar staff by turning off the jukebox when full of your choices in order to play their Leonard Cohen album. Goodbyes, bus for the airport, (bus stance = bus stop), looking forward to seeing family again, very regretful at leaving nice times & nicer people behind. Must get some sleep. OK, I'll let you all off now.
