Sinister: pete loves everyone, didn't you hear...
by Swine1999＠aol.com 10 Apr '01

fellows, i was rather suprised to see that my random, blind groping for human contact (ie. my last post) was met w/ a reaction. just as i was packing to head for my isolation cave, to live w/ a pack of gerbils, and never to see another human again, i recieved a number of emails from you sinister people. am i saying sinister has restored my faith in the human race? perhaps. i think it might be less pretentious to say sinister people are just real nice. oh, and to those that messaged me and were face w/ replies of sentence fragments and overall nervousness, my apologies. i'm currently reading "friendly flirting w/ cute indie rockers over the net". it was on oprah's book club. after this i'll be all set w/ witty and enticing comments. i was just listening to b&s. walking around jersey, at around 2am, taking random pictures w/ my digital camera. "wait," i thought. "this is far too stereotypical." i quickly put on a-ha, and began jogging instead of my usual slow plugging along. yes, it wasn't long until i collapsed and passed out to the sounds of programmed beats and synthesisers. but, haven't we all? ah. i just wanted to thank everyone. if you're all like the sinister girl that i've had the pleasure of talking to, then you're all amusing, intelligent, and cute. so you should all email me. i need to fall in love about 1500 times within the next week. yes, i'm only half joking. love, pete. +-------------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail sinister(a)missprint.org.

Sinister: The chalet line dancers
by Kenneth P Y Chu 10 Apr '01

10 Apr '01

Hello! Just got back from ATP, and it was rather nice. Thursday night went to London and AnTiciPated ATP by going to the AnTiciPate thingie at upstairs at the garage, and passed out on the stage in style. (a erm.. sleepy style) Friday got there with chalet daddy Carsmile, Mrs Carsmile, Calumn Debbie, Lixi and Phil and queued up for ages, then we discovered the pub, and sat in the pub for ages, then we discovered (gasp) a DDR machine, and we played that for ages. Met up with a lot of people who were very nice, and got quite drunk, but I got wise and was drinking Vodka and Red Bull rather than beer, so I stayed up for ages but didn't beat Carey who done sinister proud by being the last person out of the pub. Saturday erm, went to the pub, after discovering the beach, met up with more people and got even more wise and smuggled in Gordon's gin and drunk that with private Red Bull which costed 1 pound rather than 3423 pounds. Then went to the prima chalet donna and learnt how to swear at people in Glaswegian, and I think practiced by swearing at a lot of people in Glaswegian (sorry :-)). Sunday, I think, I er went to the pub then played bowling and that was fun, and then stayed there and watched gigs, after that stayed at the pub and looked very lost and confused after being very lost and confused, and swore at some people some more until the eventual end when we all got thrown out of the pub. Monday got back to London and spent a fun time at the George and sung along to some wee guitar tunes before finally getting home in yeeeerk Milton Keynes. The gigs were quite nice.. I was the only one I think who actually enjoyed silly 5 minute long guitar wanking by Yo La Tengo so I guess it says a lot about how good they were. Thank you for everyone who was there for making it suuch a fun weekend which is like the most fun I've ever had for ages, even those of you who were complete bawbag neds who should foock rright orrf back home and drink buckfast, bluddy dingers. ;) Fun Weekends and Red Bulls Ken ====================================================================== Say cheerio to books now, the only things you'll read are faces. - Belle & Sebastian +-------------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail sinister(a)missprint.org.

Sinister: Do you think you can help me?
by Madeleine McNeil 09 Apr '01

09 Apr '01

sorry that this is dull and I imagine I'm not meant to ask such daft questions, but... Can anyone tell me where I can find B&S mugs? There's mention of them on the merchandise thing on their Jeepster site but it's all T shirts and (sold out) badges. Also, does anyone ever chat on unet? I pop in from time to time but there's no one there. I'd love it if someone could email me and give me an answer to these questions. I've only been here a month or so and I'm already devolping a list crush. How does one deal with these things? I've looked their posts up on the archives and I like them even more. I'm too tentative to put it all in Honey's (very capable) hand's though. Perhaps my Loved One wouldn't like it. They thing that the internet is the Devil's Work.

Sinister: Buttons
by mummy i've grazed my knee 09 Apr '01

09 Apr '01

Lots has been going on, and I've missed it all. TEACHERS I think it's good anyway. I know it's shallow, but I have a small brain right now and it suits me fine. It has loads of grate music and is about a school, which is lovely. ATP I didn't go, but I know a man who did. I told him to find Struan for me and get him to autograph some Ribena and talk nicely, but he didn't of course. Apparently there was no football. Why not? We need to prove that pasty people really do rule. GOATS There are some down the road from me (I live in the countryside which most people at my university don't seem to be able to grasp the concept of; "Why have you never ordered a pizza before then?") They make me smile a lot because they look so happy. LEGAL MAN I have just bought the video off ebay. It is a bit dull actually, not much story line to it, but you get to see Struan looking twee and Isobelle doing the Macarena YORK PICNIC Don't worry people, it will happen next term, along with the formation of York's first indie society. STU D Me and Mr. Hallifax are probably going to the smoke to see his Davidship. If any Sinister people would like to say hello to two bumpkins (well, one and a half) please feel free. That's about it. I never can think of good stuff to write.

Sinister: ATP 2001
by David Moore 09 Apr '01

09 Apr '01

Hi Peter, I mean All, Back from ATP, knackered - I reckon I've had 14 hours sleep in 4 days. Had a GRATE time, wish you had all been there. Actually I don't really, as that would have made it even harder to get a seat in The Queen Vic. ListMummy Honey you should be proud of us for upholding the tradition of having one or more fragrant Sinisterines present to defend our usual corner at all times when the pub was open. Not closing the bar until 5 a.m. is *such* a great idea~. Sadly there was no football competition organised this year so I think that Sinister F.C. retains the title by default. The only footie I saw was on TV in the bar & after the chalet party, on the beach at about 7 o'clock on Sunday morning (If the format of this post is reminiscent of last year's then please forgive me. Old people repeat themselves without realising it.) I think just highlights for now, in no particular order. Possibly more later. PRIMA CHALET RINA We had the bestest chalet of course, so thanks to Ally, Carey, Chris, Gav, Jo, Lucy and Sally for making it such a fantastic weekend. They brought so much vodka that some of it had to be made into jelly. We were so reluctant to part that we didn't leave Camber Sands until after 2 p.m. today. Mwah! IS JENOWL REAL? She was until the hard kids got her. (Message on board) MONGED OFF HIS TITS I'll leave that one out. SMELL YOUR MAW I look forward eagerly to Ken applying the lessons he got from Jo in Glaswegian swearing. ALL TO MOORO'S PARTY Impress the neighbours by having an all night party & then throwing them out of it. It was GRATE though, good company, espresso cocktails, jelly slurping competitions, a Foxgloves+ gig in my bedroom, a Beatles, Stones, Billy Bragg, Smiths, Morrissey, et al singalong in the main room & then the beach. Your correspondent even caught himself singing along to a couple of Magnetic Fields songs. Sorry. DRUMS ON FIRE Didn't see too many bands. Tortoise won, Broadcast were close runners up. The Sea And Cake were good but unfortunately I was only able to see the last couple of numbers as they clashed with Lambchop (who were OK - playing such a quiet set would succeed in somewhere like the Queen Elizabeth Hall but not against the noise of several hundred people chattering at the bar.) Calexico were, well, interesting. There were a couple of excellent DJ sets in the pub. Sadly I didn't see the Chris Geddes & Andy Symington ones. WE LIKE TO TUNE SO MUCH MORE THAN WE LIKE TO PLAY Said Tom Verlaine of Television. I have no concept of irony so I took him at his word and went back down to the pub. DUELLING GUITARS There was a lot of brilliant music played in chalets. Thanks to Gav, Joe, Trousers, Tim, Ally, Carey, Richard, Martin, Sean and anyone else who entertained me with excellent songs & covers. SHAKE SOME ACTION Phil danced/had booty everywhere, & drew crowds at DDR. Ken & Martin did too (also). Le Troussé in comedy shades & poodle wig in the pub. CAMERA OBSCURA 's new album sounds good - can't wait to get a copy. Single Eighties Fan (out soon!) has a lovely wall of sound arrangement courtesy of one Stuart Murdoch & I can't get it out of my head today. That'll do for now Love to all, David Moore Chelmsford, UK +-------------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail sinister(a)missprint.org.
