Sinister: Mis-shapes, mistakes, misfits
by Rob S. 20 Apr '01

20 Apr '01

I must clarify, I do not really think that Americans are bland, boring folk. Or that people from Canada are truly delightful. I seemed to give a rather nasty impression with my last email.. but thank you American-crew. I had no idea you called soda , 'pop'. Silly hickly me. My birth-mate had lost my Pulp Cd a few months ago. But she rebought it for me, so all is forgiven. ROB'S REQUIREMENTS FOR SPRINGTIME MUSIC: Must have a) lots of 'la la las' and/or 'da da das' b) lots of hand-clapping and finally, c) you must be able to dance like a fool to it!! The top qualifying bands are : supergrass, pulp, the make-up, and of course our favourite wankers B&S. These past days have been sunny and warm. I hope they are where you are too. , rob p.s.

ooh, ive got so much to say and in so little time. Im back in peckham. I found out that my local leicester band called AKA WEAVE are gonna be famous. They are recording an album with guigsy (ex-oasis), supporting Ocean Colour Scene and are playing Reading. I remember seeing them at our college band night. I wrote a little piece about stuff, it should be on the library site called "middle kid" IM GONNA SEE THE TINDERSTICKS ON 21ST, I am SSSOOOOOOo happy.. If anyone else is going id like to meet up with them. If you dont mind me giggling and crying all night.I bought a promo of theirs at rough trade and it is absolutely wonderful. Really summery and danceable. To chris,miller and tom: I am actually a graphics student at camberwell college. its a dead open course and i mainly do illustrations, i make t-shirts and do silk screenc etc. If anyone is in leicester, go to "wellgosh" opposite KFC. The illustrations in the shop are done by kid acne, hes a big influence on me. The place in brixton is called MASS, it looks like a big church. We should be doing some more soon, this record company really likes us and wants us to do more. I will let you know when and where, you can come and make your very own slide. When i went to see BROADCAST, i asked the guy if we could do visuals for him in london. hopefully he will ring me back? Who did "little arithmathics", they played it on Teachers, i need to know? Please everyone by that new SOUTH album, its amazing, a cross between stone roses and something else of some sort. yes hannah +-------------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail sinister(a)missprint.org.

Sinister: from beneath the covers...
by lisa morrison 19 Apr '01

19 Apr '01

someone said something about listening to "heart"...think it was boy g...does it count for something that i own a "heart" tee-shirt?...not quite as hip as owning a "motley crew" tee-shirt, but i had to settle for second best as usual (though lately that has not been the case...perhaps that was my pre-i-get-what-ever-i-want era...spoiled sloppy me. i am in good need of a disciplinarian...any takers?) so all the listees who have been posting and panting about love and lust and the like with other fellow listees or isobel look alikes: the time has arrived for me to join yr ranting ranks...lisa has graduated from the doe eyes of sinister crushing to the collar-grabbing "come here and kiss me"'s of an actual sinister boyfriend... two awkward lense-clad kids dancing (naked) around the intensity of their feelings for each other...the conversation should have been tape recorded and cut onto a "jerky boys" revival cd...comic, yet touching...there were some rather amusing silences as well as discussion of a peadophile cow and burn victims that taste of BBQ...if this is the nature of phone conversations, all tight and silly, than sex just might be a riot that should also be recorded and put out on a special sinister porn sight..."B&S does T&A" (copyright: pete)...hows that for a sillustration, brier? but none of this will intrest any of you b/c the hottopic has been red checkered blankets and ants at picinics as of late...something we american listees never have due to extreme laziness and the sparse population of sinister members. nudge nudge and a wink to all east coasters out there...but no amount of coaxing even from foxy bitch boot babes will pull these bear's out of their proverbial dens. east coasters, especially, have a terrible habit of hibernation... excuse my rather shabby posts, lately...i've been (sex) rather (sex) preoccupied (sex)...however i must say this much: a) i have gone dizzy due to the excessive number of l's in miss laura lew's name and the excessive number of times it has appeared in recent posts. b) i agree with brier: where is the night mistress joan of dark? i so enjoyed her posts. c) a little birdie mentioned that there may have been a listee who dropped the name of kutztown, pa...if yr out there. i am out there too. i mean i am here. in k-town (a-town, p-delpheia)...drop me a fine line if you wish. -listdomlisa ...under the sheets in concrete k-town. (if the bunk bed's a-rockin'; don't come a-knockin') heheheheh. _________________________________________________________________ Get your FREE download of MSN Explorer at http://explorer.msn.com +-------------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail sinister(a)missprint.org.

Sinister: neck bent like a friggin tree
by Kirstin Schreiber 19 Apr '01

19 Apr '01

I was wondering when and where the soundtrack comes out with the music done by B&S. Also, where can I get one of these T-shirts everyone talks so much about? Maybe i'll make one, although I would not want to be insulting by my questionable artistic ability. I'm going to walk home now and hope the wind doesn't knock me over. Smiles to all (even though no one really knows me yet). wondering about the outcome of this meeting of heads of state going on in canada this sunday. kirstin _________________________________________________________________ Get your FREE download of MSN Explorer at http://explorer.msn.com +-------------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail sinister(a)missprint.org.

Sinister: My lovely evening.
by Matthew Stead 19 Apr '01

19 Apr '01

Hey luvlies! Just thought I'd show off a bit about my lovely evening if that's OK. You may have heard the evening session unsigned tonight on Radio 1. Well they played my band 'The Mighty Stars'. Anyone hear it? I did mention Belle and Sebastian amongst our influences but the nasty lady in Lamacqs office said it would be better if we put down our more rock n'roll bands. Poo! Anyways, I hope this isn't a blatent plug but our website is: http://sosaidkayrecords.50megs.com we're linked from Jeepster too. Liverpool won tonight as well which was nice. B&S Content: By the way...how come whenever I go up and congratulate people around here who are wearing B&S T-shirts they just sneer at me or cross the street. Now I'm not horribly deformed or intimidating in any way. tsk...this has happened too many times. I'm sure none of you lot at the list would do it. Goddam imposters!

Sinister: blairful of thatcher stick on the 45
by chris perriman 19 Apr '01

19 Apr '01

- people have been talking about recorded anouncements on trains, my local metro system's announcement (as mike w will fondly recall (or maybe not)) is an bloke, or occationally a woman, with an alarmingly heavy geordie accent saying 'stand clear of the doors please' as they are about to close. visitors to the area always comment on how thick the guy sounds, which does nothing to dispell the myth that geordies are all lager swilling football hooligans, we arent at all, alot of us are really sweet :) newcastle is the indie capital of, if not england, then certainly the north. there are soo many pairs of flairs being flapped around the city centre of a saturday, it's grate. - i've just heard about the new super furry animals album, apparently it's coming out on cd and dvd, the latter being mixed in 5.1 surround sound with a specially comissioned video for each song plus remixes and bonus tracks *and* the videos are being shown in cinemas round britain on the sunday before the release (probably around late june) how fantastic is that?! - someone mentioned channel 4's music tv moments thing, we carnt rig the votes coz, on the website at least, there are 40 pre-chosen 'moments' of which you choose 10 as your favourites, and belle and sebastian's brit moment isn't on the list - so there luckily the one i wanted to vote for was there - pulp headlining at glastonbury '95 when the stone roses pulled out - that was a defining moment for me, not necisarily because it was pulp, but from that point onwards, music has been a great importance in my life. - i've had a fantastic idea (ok, so you'll prolly shoot me down in flames but) why dont we form a belle and sebastian tribute band, not all 1424 of us, we'd never fit on a stage, we could suppurt the band on the (fingers crossed) impending tour. i'll play bass and do a bit of vocals a la StuD; desmond in a coma plays drums so he can take richard's place; brier random is in a band, not sure what you play though mate; anybody with a voice like StuM out there?, anybody?, bueller?, bueller? - and finally here are the results of the fantastic lyric competition it was of course Einar's shouty bit from 'regina' by the sugarcubes this lot all came second: brier - just about right, you had the jist of it caleb - how was arab strap? GarethDanielBill - not even out of the nursery and joining in jay - right band, wrong song maren rocket - don't mention it ola - you didn't get it right but i'll put you out of your misery anyway stephanie - the only one to mention Einar will salt - last entry to reach me most of these reached me within 2 hours of me posting it! but there has to be a winner and Karren Gill is that girl!, her post arrived in my mailbox before i got my original post sent back from sinister! damn she's quick. i take it from your last post that you are canadian so the tape might take a while to get to you but it will definately be sometime (nice and vague) send me your address and rough taste in music and i'll send a tailor-made tape winging its way to you. - tis the season for competitions round these parts all of a sudden byzey bye Pez* not enough schools not enough homes just 'phoney care' in his millennium dome more prime cuts than beef on the bone and there's too many questions you're not answering, tone so will the real great britain step forward this is the national identity parade shoe gazer nation forever looking backwards time to reject the sixties charade www.pez.com - the wonderful world of pez ;) ivorytowers.8m.com - ivory towers records www.drpez.com - Dr Pez, Spain's premier fish doctor (i think) _________________________________________________________________________ Get Your Private, Free E-mail from MSN Hotmail at http://www.hotmail.com. +-------------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail sinister(a)missprint.org.

Sinister: He came in April, the month of rain...
by Ayumi 19 Apr '01

19 Apr '01

hi list, I went to a great gig on Monday. it was strange, so different from all the other gigs I went..... i saw Calla. well, we (me and the people with me) had great problem finding out the place where they played because we didn't know the city and there were only tourists (or fake tourists) and they couldn't(/didn't want to) help well, once inside the place we sat somewhere and after the beginning of the gig it was strictly forbidden to talk or something so. during a song I whispered something to my sister and a 'neighbour' look so bad at me, then one laugh loudly and all people said a great, quite evil 'shhhhh'... but the one who laughs made a noise louder than the singer voice :) I really like the songs they played (the last one was 'sweet jane' and the way they played it was really adorable :)) I'm listening to 'swansong for you': I lent it to a friend of mine and I've got it back today after two months or so, I do miss also all the b&s CDs that I lent to my sister's boyfriend (never trust one that says 'oh, I'll give them back soon') I saw that there will be a kings of convenience and Turin brakes gig somewhere near here in may.... I hope to convince someone to take me there (the fact that a week later is my birthday should have an influence), but no one here knows them... hm... tonight I had my first sinister dream: I meet some lovely italian sinister people (to tell the truth I've never met anyone of sinister in my whole life...)-I think it was a picnic or something like that-. I don't remember nothing more about it, well another thing we started to talk about astronomy... don't ask me why ... at least my dreams don't involve a tender (in a yummy way) leopard eaten by an aggressive kitten as happened to my desk mate :) well I disappear once again bye Francesca +-------------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail sinister(a)missprint.org.

Sinister: springtime la la la la.....
by Desmond Torpey 19 Apr '01

hey there... ...today is not good...because yesterday was terrible...involving the worst gig anyone has ever played in the history of music....peformed by my band...its a dubious honour but i think we deserve it...i discovered last night that rhythm is an alien concept to me...the only fun i had was giving my drumkit a hefty boot across the stage in a fit of rock star anger...except i'm far from a star of any description...are you supposed to actually enjoy playing live?...because i sure as hell didnt...i sat shaking in the corner with a pint of water for about five hours...i couldnt see straight with nerves... i suppose it was only the second time i've ever played live...but i feel like i let people down...i wanted them to enjoy it...ok there was only about 40 people there...but...if i thought we sounded awful imagine what they thought...they went home thinking 'christ that was the worse fucking peformance i've ever suffered in my life'...which kind of destroys the little confidence i had...and i let down the people in my band...who are good musicians...argh...sorry..i shouldnt be inflicting my self-pity onto you people...its spring..i should be frollicking in the feilds and enjoying the smell of new life...except its raining...and bloody cold...ah....this was kind of a pointless post...i just wanted to write... ta ta... __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
