Sinister: If you want to sing out...
by Rob S. 17 Apr '01

17 Apr '01

Arab Strap was fantastic. i will forgive them for their crappy choice of songs to play, because they put on a hypnotic show... i also saw The Promise Ring {i hate emo kids, but like some of the music}. to my surprise while i was waiting in line people started to point at my 'belle and sebastian' patch, and started snickering. i felt strangely out of place, much like that time i was at a rave dressed in cordoroy. B&S touring? If those suckers don't come to Canada I'll be offended. We're not rude and heartless like our American neighbours! We're nice, sweet, and call "soda", "pop". How adorable! Anyways.... If any of you hepcats are in the Hamilton, Ontario area we are organizing our very own B&S picnic.All are invited! Just email me privately. Do not worry, there will be plenty of kite-flying! p.s. Does anyone else think B&S should write a song about the movie Harold and Maude? I think it would be delightful. _________________________________________________________________________ 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.

A while back I mentioned Agnes, an Isobel-looking girl now living in Utah whom I had become infatuated with, and I asked for advice on how to approach the situation of beginning a relationship with her. Well, I finally flew to Salt Lake City to meet her after chatting with her for a month on Sinister. It turns out that she might be more of a fan of B&S than myself as she has both a B&S bus t-shirt and LLPJ vynil. I had no idea. It turns out that she remembered me buying my first B&S CD (IYFS) when she knew me two years ago and she decided to purchase all of the albums herself. I'm so in love but don't anybody tell her that because she's the type to wait an obligatory amount of time before any words like that are allowed to be mentioned. I should also add that Agnes bought a Nick Drake CD while I visited, so she now has all three of my favorites (which include Frente). Anyway, the love-story continues. Hopefully there will be more to write about in the future. Take care, Colin _________________________________________________________________ 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: Is it stingy not to share

Hello sinistees, Sam Walton who is back (welcome back) wrote: >> that there's a film on tonight (Tuesday) called 'The Loneliness Of A Long Distance Runner'........ ..The only reason I mention the film is because if Struan liked the flick enough to steal its title (albeit partially) for a song, then some of us may like it too. That's all... << Sorry, but the REAL reason Struan used that particular title is because IRON MAIDEN did a song called "The loneliness of the long distance runner", and Sturan is secretly, like me, a RAWK CITIZEN, and wrote a tribute song to them. If you listen to the said song carefully, you'd ALSO discover that despite popular beliefs, String Bean Jean's explosive RAWK riff is in fact not stolen from The Kids Aren't All Right, but in fact the Intro of "Loneliness of the Long Distance Runner"! The next B&S single "Jonathan and David" features the guitar solo, hence why the whole CD is an Iron Maiden special.

Sinister: "Who is that chap?"
by Robert Brennan 17 Apr '01

17 Apr '01

ElenaNena is right - working on bank holidays does indeed suck. I found my way to the pub Good Friday evening to find everyone I knew was already about a thousand times more drunk than me. Situations like this place you in a unique position - especially if you know any rugby players Things rugby players do: #1 Get twatted and sing songs that go (to the tune of 'Delilah') "Wide wide wiiide vaginaaaa... Labi labi labi labiahhhh...." at the top of their voices in quiet pubs. #2 Get twatted and heckle absolutely everyone and everything like those two old blokes on the Muppet Show #3 Play rugby The surprise was discovering that cricket players are equally adept at the first two. **** rant over **** That Gorillaz album is rather good. Anyone else think that the character of Murdoc looks like a demonic bass-playing version of Chris Geddes? On the picnic photos page, Mark C asked "Who is that chap?" hiding at the back behind Alix, Vel, Carey and Ken in GreenwichX2.jpg. Come to think of it, his name was... It was me. Damn.

Sinister: Oh, Caledonia!
by Will Salt 17 Apr '01

17 Apr '01

I don't think anyone has mentioned this, so I thought I would. My flatmate recently alerted me to the fact that the cover star on the current issue of Caledonia magazine (for posh Scottish people) is a certain Ms. I Campbell, of whom you may have heard. I immediately dashed down to my local newsagents, but found that they're not posh enough to stock it. I dashed over (well, ambled) to a newsagents in the New Town and had a wee look at the three-page article, which can be summarised as "she's got this band called The Gentle Waves, too". Oh, and the interviewer was surprised that she wasn't too twee to giggle at the technical photographic term "ring-flash". I imagine most people round here would chortle uproariously at such a word. Some non-content stuff: Robin Stout recently overheard an old man telling his wee grandchild that a million people live in Iceland. I can divulge the astounding secret that that's a *huge* overestimate. The population of Iceland is only about the same as that of Wolverhampton, England. I know loads more tedious facts about the Nordic countries, but the only thing I know about Wolverhampton is that it has the same population as Iceland. If you want to know more, ask your local Black Country expert (if you can understand her accent). Well, I assume it's not the *same* population. Maybe someone could try nipping quickly from Wolverhampton to Reykjavik and seeing if one or the other seems strangely deserted. Content again: I was listening to TBWTAS this morning---I like to listen to B+S first thing as I get up, it makes recovering-all-senses somewhat easier---and I couldn't help thinking that the lyrics to Dirty Dream Number Two *actually* sound like "could you put a name to someone else's *thighs*", rather than the printed lyric "sigh". Is this just a mistake on my part, or is this what is actually on the record? I know there are quite a few places where the published lyrics differ from the recorded ones; I have thought about being all geeky and compiling a webpage with them all on. It would only be a few hours work, or rather, "work". Not Content: Robin (as above) also mentioned that the day of immersion heaters has passed. Not in my house, it hasn't. Nor at my parents, where I usually use up all their hot water by taking 73 bottles into the shower. Someone *ages* ago asked if there really are disused stations on the London Underground which the trains pass through, as per the book (and TV series) "Neverwhere". Indeed there are; a few examples being British Museum, Aldwych and South Kentish Town. John Betjeman wrote a nice little short story about a commuter who gets off his train at South Kentish Town by mistake, and has to sit on the deserted, unlit platform until the wee small hours, when he gets rescued by the tunnel-cleaners. Oh, that magazine article again. *Before* any of you ask (including you, Ken), the article did not feature, in any way, the words "arse", "lard", or any combination or synonyms for the above. I just thought I'd better get that straightened out, otherwise it could lead to *months* of debate. David Moore wanted someone to spill the beans about Peacock Johnson appearing in internet chat. If that was what I'm thinking of, wasn't it a whole month ago? That's *ages*! I missed some (most?) of it, but I probably still have the logs of what I saw somewhere. Greg P said that House of Leaves gave him nightmares. It gave me that ominous feeling of "will I miss anything if I skip the rest of this page?" My advice to anyone thinking of reading it: skip the bits printed in Courier. Ok, though, it's a scary *idea*. One last thing: unlike thousands of you (it seems), I have never met any pop stars. The nearest I have come was one of my university tutors, who said he used to be in a band called Revenge, back in the 1980s. I've only ever met one person who has heard of them, so it definitely doesn't count. He is listed in "Rock Family Trees", though.

Sinister: if a picture paints a thousand words...
by Hewitt, Stephen 17 Apr '01

17 Apr '01

...most of the words would be "ah fokkin luv you, yer me behsht mayte you (hic!) cabbage gerrard burble pint" Yes, it's Carsmile's fantastic ATP photos at (long time readers can guess the rest): http://www.geocities.com/carsmilesteve although i should point out that the sini-boys DDRing with grate aplomb are not up yet, as i haven't finished the film. (quick aside to chris mmmmmm brown: be glad you can't get on to geocities at work mate ;)) I will hopefully do this tonite whilst watching Stuart David (and Peacock and the other two main characters from the book, erm, evil thingy and Peacock's girlfriend). Full report on that tomorrow (with a "look away now" comment at the top for those of you who don't want the surprise ruined). Somehow I seem to have become picnic-overlord, can someone tell me how that happened please? I don't even live in flippin london, so it's not my place to say that the picnic should be in greenwich really is it?? Although i think Greenwich is *traditionally* the spot for the first (london) picnic of the year. (will this do south londoners?) Oh a lot of people have mentioned b&s songs sounding like other songs recently, and i know that i am semi-in-charge of that, but erm, i'm a bit crap so if you have mentioned one recently could you mail me and i'll add it to the list, pleasethankyouplease. oh erm, yay, new single, and jigs too!! OK, back tomorrow with (eek!) content (kinda) xoxo CarsmileSteve +-------------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail sinister(a)missprint.org.

Sinister: long distance runner
by Mouche75＠aol.com 17 Apr '01

17 Apr '01

Just a little note to re-iterate Sam's point about The Loneliness of the Long Distance Runner, on Film Four tonight. Please watch it. The main connection with the Belles, apart from the obvious, is that it reminds me of the feeling of running, past pain, and into euphoria. Go Belles. +-------------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail sinister(a)missprint.org.

Sinister: For FilmFour Viewers Only
by Sam Walton 17 Apr '01

17 Apr '01

Hello, It's not like me to post two days running, especially after such a large absence, but I thought those on the list who can get FilmFour might be interested to note that there's a film on tonight (Tuesday) called 'The Loneliness Of A Long Distance Runner', which, chances are, provided inspiration for B&S's similarly titled song. At least I think it is. I would go and check in the TV guide, but I have the cat on my lap as I type this, and so am reluctant to kick him off. The only reason I mention the film is because if Struan liked the flick enough to steal its title (albeit partially) for a song, then some of us may like it too.

Sinister: Ain't nothing but a Boy G thang.
by The Boy G 17 Apr '01

17 Apr '01

Oy! Sinistaah! I always thought that Hefner's 'I Love Only You' featured the lyric "Who gave you the right, to use my leotard?". But apparently, it's "little heart" , not "leotard", so I'm boycotting Hefner in protest. Instead I'm listening to Magic Man by Heart over and over again, because it features the best porn-guitar riff on any record, ever. I've been in Tunisia. It was crap. Enough said. Actually, though, I'm being too harsh. Yes, admittedly, Tunisia suffers from the huge problem that when the bar staff are trying to chat you up, you feel guilty about getting them to buy you drinks, as your trainers (New! Red! Sexy!) alone cost their, like, yearly income. But to dismiss the whole country as being rubbish on the basis of that alone would be to forget the existence of the best hairdressing venue on earth - the mightily named "Mods ' Hair Palace". Who could resist a name like that? So, naturally, I'm now dark blonde, with peroxide streaks and dark on the sides. It's very boyband, very camp, very Boy G. Is there a second Samantha Mumba single yet? 'Always Come Back To Your Love' was absolutely brilliant. And now, a pause to catch your breath before The! Best! News! Ever! In! The! Entirety! Of! Greg's! Life! (breath) I'm going to New York! Woooo! Yes, only for work experience, but I shall finally get to see the city where, when I'm grown up, I plan to run my own detective agency, and be a Private Eye. Oh, the suits I'll wear! Oh, the hats I'll don, and the rakish angles I'll wear them at! But that's later. In the meantime, are there any New York Sinis who could show me around? Or, ideally, give me a place to stay for a fortnight? It's all terribly exciting. You can exhale now, if you want to. On other news, Matthew Brown still smells of wee. But he's now not talking to me, which suggests, rather delightfully, that yes, he did read my last post. Thanks to everybody who sent Mad Propz for that, and especially to Honey, who missprintsearchadded it. Honey, I for one wuv yoo, think you're a great list mum, and hope you'll come back soon. Tech-heads, vegan geeks and students should play Aardwolf Mud, it's the best one out there by miles. On German TV, they show entire Destiny's Child concerts, and sometimes, halfway through, Lil' Bow Wow runs onstage and slaughters them in freestyle duels. Lil' Bow Wow is my idol. I bet if he saw that irritating twat off Channel Four racing, the one with the comedy sideburns, he'd get Snoop Doggy Dogg to shoot him in the shins. The book House of Leaves gives you nightmares. I honestly promise it does. Does anyone out there have Spaced Series Two, episodes two, five or six on video? Please? Pretty please? I'll be so massively grateful, and I promise I 'll send them back when I'm done, with a bonus mixtape attached. Honest. Applicants should state their views on the Baxendale massive, to help determine the content of the tape. So, a new B&S single. Yes. Good.

Sinister: Lazy Line Primitive Painter Loving Llew
by Laura Llew 17 Apr '01

17 Apr '01

Aww, I feel sorry for all those who had to slave over the holidays as I greedily popped jelly beans in my mouth one by one. Mmm so sad. Of course, Elena, you could be thankful that you didn't get the same reward for your work that Jesus got for his. Of course, if Christ was in my business he would have at least used that cross as effective advertising space as he carried it up the hill. Not that I can fault his publicity plan since his book is the most published one in existence... Here in the states Easter has already been forgoteen seeing as it's the last day to file one's taxes. Along with sticking all of my money in an IRA today (deduct me, baby), I'm barely sliding my return in before the deadline. Instead of considering myself as lazy, I like to think I'm perfecting skills which I will use my entire life - mainly that of procrastinating and rationalization. David Moore reminds me of Pappy Maverick a bit so I won't be hurt that he made fun of me. I'll just pretend he said something like, "Never cry over spilt milk. It could've been whiskey" or "Stay clear of weddings because one of them is liable to be your own." However, I have been getting a couple of questions about the *****TRANSATLANTIC MIX TAPE CHALLENGE 2001***** so I thought I would clear some things up: 1. Yes, Jason "Jim Crow" McKinnon was right. There will be a separate but equal contest for CD mixes as well. Though there are completely different rules to making mix cds than mix tapes. 2. For those who have been worrying about the time factor (Peter Carter, Sweetie, Mr. Meskers) - don't. The deadline is whenever I get enough tapes to judge and no one else is saying there going to send another in. Of course, also follow the advice of Zippy's father and "don't dawdle". I'm glad that Sam has rejoined us, even if it was because of a nasty skiing incident. It seems as if they have been all the rage lately and I hope that Jer and Rob Brennan are feeling better from their snow related mishaps as well. I think it all goes to show you that winter sports are OF THE DEVIL. I know this from firsthand experience when three of my male (AKA evil) friends persuaded me to go snowboarding with them in Sun Valley, Idaho. My first warning was that the infamous Bald Mountain has ski runs cut out so that it spells RIP. Why didn't I run? My second signal is that these friends are the ones who are always trying to involve me in activities which always cause me concussions (ie- hiking in canyons where humans shouldn't go, rockclimbing, etc). Why didn't I hide? I had been snow-shoeing the previous winter and it turned out all right. In fact, I loved it! I even ended up in Bruce Willis's backyard (though I said if I ever retold that story that I would end up in his living room sipping hot chocolate.) So, I go out with them. Usually when I go sledding I end up tromping up the snowy bank once, sneaking the book I had in my pocket out, and sitting on a stolen inner tube reading in the snow while everyone else sleds. With everything being white, it's absolutely gorgeous. However, no one else likes this approach. This was my first time snowboarding and more of an introductory course (Laura's bum meet the frigid Snow. Icy Cold snow meet Laura's behind. Play nice since you'll be spending a lot of time together). It all ended with me having a bloody face and yet another concussion. To be honest (I'm not a boy so isn't hard for me to be that), I didn't actually get injured WHILE snowboarding. However, someone once overheard me discussing how exactly I did get hurt to another friend and they found it so funny they dropped on the floor convulsing with the laughter. After that, I swore I would never tell anyone how it really happened. So, I still maintain my original story that I was coming down when that baby stroller appeared from no where.... Speaking of illness and injury, I believe I have developed a syndrome. Not Tourette's per se but something akin to it. Every time I meet or see a girl named Adrian I completely want to yell her name out Rocky style. This is a curse!! Today, I'm getting my blood drawn by this kindly girl who is quietly humming as she shoves a sharp needle into my arm.* I'm trying not to look at my blood go into the little tube when I glance up to see IT. Right there on a small gold rectangle. "Adrianne." It was all I could do to restrain myself from leaping up, throwing my arms over my head and shouting ADDDRRRIIIIIIIIIIIIANNNEEEE! which with the blood and needle involved would not have painted a pretty picture. Wasn't Sly Stallone in porn film? Don't worry I'm not going to recount my tales of me, Jewel Shepard, and the velour padded bra disco lounge again. Even if Vu did a lovely drawing of it. I always like Vu's drawings except when I'm in them. I think he gets his feelings hurt because I never like how he draws me but it has nothing to do with his abilities. Evidently, he says he can't post this one since I've already been drawn. I guess there's a rule or something. I say no one knows what I look like and so it's not as if the drawings will look alike. Go for it! Heh. Though I keep getting told by those who do know me that I look like the bass player from the Aislers Set, especially my smile. I've looked for pictures on-line but i couldn't find any and since I've only heard of them from Sinister posts - I don't know. I probably shouldn't say this since I don't have any idea what the girl looks like and she could be the type to make you want to hide under your bed (though that would be ace!). So, if anyone has a picture of her could you please send it my way so I know who is going around stealing my face. How big a girl is she? I wonder if I could take her? *thinks of Kim Deal* Those bass players can be pretty scrappy.... Laura * No, Ree, there was no lolli involved. Unfortunately. PS - Requisite Dorothy Parker bit: "Once in her long-running feud with Clare Boothe Luce, Mrs. Luce held the door open for Mrs. Parker to walk through and said, 'Age before beauty.' Mrs. Parker walked through and said, 'Pearls before swine.' Another time, when told that Mrs. Luce was kind to her inferiors, Dorothy said, 'And where does she find them?" PPS - Why does Lisa get all the fun? No one has been throwing long, tall, rather attractive b&s fans at me! PPPS - Steve you've been biggin up your team so much that I've decided to see them in Baltimore on Wednesday. You best be praying they perform well. I'm surprised you haven't entered in the mix tape contest yet. Not that I know about your mixin' abilities, but I figure that anyone who likes Maryland's athletic teams has to be pretty good about talkin trash when he can't necesarrily back up his words with action. hehe *scampers off before steve can thwack her* _________________________________________________________________ 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.
