Sinister: RAH terror
by Darren Savage 28 Jun '01

28 Jun '01

Hello everyone. My friend Kerry ,who I was going to see B&S with at the RAH, can no longer go as her Mum's ill and she's gone home to look after her. This means I have a spare ticket and as my friends have poor music taste I though I'd see if any of you lot would like the it. It's in the Circle bit and you'd have to sit next to me, but if you're interested then send me an e-mail and say hello. Cheers Sav __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?

Sinister: Frustrated of Fife
by vodkabird＠gurlmail.com 28 Jun '01

28 Jun '01

Ooooh Matron! I read all of the fantabulous gig reviews fervently (especially the Dunfermline ones, cos *I was there* and met the divine Misses Honey and Linda, Keef, mister Ally Cook sir and Willyem) but every time I attempted to write a post, Cliff stopped me, sang a verse of 'Mistletoe and Wine' and sent me screaming off into the Forth. Always one to get nostalgic after the event, me. Although I must discourage the tall folks amongst you from attempting to sit down in Carnegie Hall due to squished in-ness. Perhaps we should have sat cross-legged at the front and sipped on free milk (oh they don't have that any more, do they?) I was sad to have missed the Glasgow do, especially since the band pulled all the stops out with The Smiffs, but I was rolling around in newspaper and parcel tape. If you want some pictures, well, you're better off with some kind of Blue Peter porn (the gnome in the garden will do anything for a fiver and a good rub down with a brillo pad) The new eepee is sitting on a table somewhere in my flat but still hasn't been played due to the fact that my stereo is residing in Stirlingshire. The front cover reminds me of the Monkees or even better, Peter Paul and Mary. Or even worse, Supergrass. I read that Ken has had his flowing locks chopped off, so my hair twin is no longer. In years to come, when the RBD are played on VH-1, and our nieces and nephews ask 'Aunty Vic...whatever happened to Ken Chu?', I can open my photo album, point at some of my choice and less severe bobbed haircuts and say 'He's still here, sandwiched between Donald Duck and my friend Feather' That would actually be nicer than it sounds. To all youz lot who are off to the lovely Albert Hall this weekend, I would say 'Have fun, don't arse around on the balcony and remember that the last thing an Eric Clapton fan wants to find is an old Red Bull can with a love letter inside addressed to a man with arms of sex' (So leave that pen at home, Hon!) Spare some thought for who may be in your place next Saturday evening. To those of you who aren't venturing to Lahndahn, I would say 'I'll be baking cake this weekend, and you're all welcome' Love you all VB xxx Being a Rebel's Fine at: http://www.angelfire.com/ia/trustnoone ________________________________________________________________________ --> get your free, private gURLmail account at http://www.gURLmail.com!! +-------------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail sinister(a)missprint.org.

Sinister: haircut 100
by Hannah Brown 28 Jun '01

28 Jun '01

poor old ken, i feel for him you know. ive just this miniute had my hair cut and it was scary, id rather go to the dentist any day, at least if they mess your teeth up you can just close you mouth, and i suppose you could wear a hat but thats far more obvious isnt it, unlees you talk non-stop ALL the time??? the problem that i have is that i dont know what it looks like until i put my glasses on and by that time it's too late anyway. But it all went fine this time but ive got lots of dodgy garage songs in me head. Wouldnt it be great to have an indie hairdressers that plaed sweet little tunes to calm your nerves, offer you ribena and put flowers in you hair, oh how lovely that would be. i am tres excited about tommorow and am thinking of doing another f@$$in film just for the sheer hell of it, i also feel the need to dress up a bit. you know, go a wee bit girlie, if anyone has any suggestions about how to be girlie that would be a bonus? and its true Kings of Conveinience were bliss.i wanted to put them in my pocket and run away with them, i had a go but i couldnt fit Erlans leg in and the running part proved impossible, so i carefully pulled them out, brushed them off and sent them back to the bar. They were very kind to me and told me that my pockets were the most comfortable, next time im gonna wear dungarees. oh dear this haircut seems to have removed a part of my brain that differenciates truth and fiction. anyway, i better go, morrisey is giving away some angel cake next door, i better hurry before it all gets eaten +-------------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail sinister(a)missprint.org.

Sinister: No one does Gay Telese but everyone Studs Terkel
by Laura Llew 28 Jun '01

28 Jun '01

We now interrupt these content filled messages of gigs, new singles, and staining Stuart's shoes with puddles of drool for a rambling rant from Laura Llew. If you were hoping to continue your life as a parasite continued by living vicariously off other people's belle and sebastian experiences you shall have to find another host to post. I have enough ex-boyfriends as it is. Ken Kommented: "Getting a haircut is *such* a scary thing, everytime I go I get abused by hairdressers." Some people fear going to the dentist with the scary drills and mottos of "be true to your teeth or they'll be false to you" but it's all about getting my hair cut which makes me reach for the comfort of a security blanket and Lucien the bear. I've entered enough beauty shops with hair cascading down my back for a simple trim and left with just one dejected craven curl barely long enough to touch the tip of my ear (which then starts mutters that if I'm going to start being around people who've obviously drink too much then I should start tipping the bottle as well.) This is only compounded by the social stereotype that hair dressers aren't too bright. "You know, at the beauty academy they teach us that people aren't black or white or yellow or red, but their hair can be..." Don't even bother writing me to tell about your genius friend who did nails just to earn enough money to get their Ph.D. I know your friend. They cheat. Hey - don't blame me for the generalization. I didn't start. I just perpetuate it. I personally only want the brightest of people near my head with sharp objects. Of course I get lectured for waiting too long to get my hair trimmed. It's such a traumatic experience that I put it off for as long as possible which happened to be until last Tuesday. I peeked into the "SmartCuts" place late in the evening and found a nice looking lady at the front desk. It seemed safe so I walked in and gave her my name. Next thing I know, a young girl with hair that looks as if it was schlacked with a heavy varnish comes up and says, "Oh I'll take her before I go." I won't let myself get melodramatic here but there was an escape attempt made which failed and ended with me being dragged by the scruff of my neck to *the chair*. As usual, all I wanted was a simple cut. Snip snip and that's it. Nothing fancy. I was unaware that I had stumbled upon the oracles of beauty and hair care products. The girl hadn't even pulled out the scissors yet before she starts sagaciously lecturing me with her knowledge undoubtedly founded through her long hours of toil with her hands fully immersed in some poor victim's hair while the strong fumes of the dye wafted to her brain. Evidently this young lady was abused with thinning shears at some point (by the looks of her hair she has been abused by multiple objects - both sharp and blunt - in her short life time) as she then began listing the evils of such things to me. I have naturally curly hair which if not thinned and is anywhere near the short side will give me an afro which Dolomite would turn gumby green in envy over. When I used this as my reasoning, she starts enumerating the benefits of gels and moose. Usually, I counter with the fact that I don't like the way it makes me hair feel but looking at her helmet hair - I knew this would fall upon deaf ears. If not deaf, at least well padded. (Plus, that's a lie. I'm actually just too lazy for such things. My hair is lucky if it gets brushed.) Besides verbal abuse, there is another thing which happens with regularity each time I get my hair cut. It is about the time when the hairdresser has started to section off my hair, twirl it up, and then snap a clip on it. I don't know the reasoning for it so don't ask me why. She has now meandered off into other tangents of conversations and I'm thankful for the respite. At some point, something comes up which leads to how old I am (in this case she asked me when I had graduated from high school). They stop what they're doing and look at me via the medium of the mirror. (That's another pet peeve. If anyone is going to be talking to my face in the mirror it is should be ME with my standard mantra of telling a wrinkle or blemish which is threatening to mar my face that I really do not offer the best climate for vacationing and it really doesn't want to become a permanent resident. My sister however - ooh her face is a veritable club med! Here's her address.) Helmet Head: "You're how old?" Me: *gulps & mutters* 23 Helmet Head: *stops and stares at me in the mirror* No, you don't look that old. I'm sitting there with tufts of hair sprouting all of my head like a Chia Pet (La-La-Laura). I DON'T even look human! However, I usually just confess to lying and being whatever age the hairdresser deems me and consider myself lucky to escape. Then, I talk my hair out of a stiff drink on the rocks. Laura PS - I just dare someone to randomly mention their car troubles in their otherwise content filled post. Mine just broke down and lemme just tell you about these money sucking grease thirsty mechanics.... _________________________________________________________________ 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: and she'll cry for you..
by The Hodottir 28 Jun '01

28 Jun '01

Hi Peepsters A thousand thanks for the link to the JD video - it nearly made me cry with joy/sympathy/excitement. Mainly excitement I suppose, because it makes me think of seeing B&S playing live tomorrow night - even my butterflies have butterflies about it, and everyone I know is probably sick of hearing about it, especially the ones that haven't a clue who B&S are (if you can imagine such foolishness). Anyway, it's going to be grate, and even though I didn't want to read any reviews beforehand, those that got through my gig-filter have served as fuel to the thrill. Begging content: On the subject of videos, does anyone know if there are plans for a collection of the B&S videos to be released soon/ever (?) I fear that as long as s-club are willing to dance around on beaches with their baps out etc, a B&S vid will never be broadcast to the nation. Oh the outrage. Never mind, after tomorrow I can replay the pictures in my head. Please make yourself known if you see me, Joe and Flo tomorrow night - we'll be the ones who turn up to the picnic late and look around for a bit. Of the three, I'll be the one making high-pitched squeaky noises. I'll think of you all when I can't sleep tonight, Miss Ho. _________________________________________________________________________ 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: I'm very, very sorry...
by Tom Pettinger 28 Jun '01

28 Jun '01

Before Jules spills the beans, I might as well admit it... I found my way to the B&S gig in Preston. Whe-hey! it was absolutely fantastic! they did a lot of songs from fishyclap but I didn't mind because I don't have that album so it was a pleasant change. They did many others but none of you will be interested in a set list, suffice to say they did, "My girls got miraculous technique" which is a twee hum-dinger of a song, and it served to remind me that I am quite pissed off that they say it will not be on the next E.P. because it is GRATE. They were really relaxed, I think, I presume Isobel always looks that sweetly bored, and Stuart seemed to lighten up after the first few songs. Chris didn't get quite a few notes on JD but it was still nice to hear it. If anyone found it really annoying that someone in the standing section near the middle KEPT TAKING PICTURES I'm very sorry, but I wanted at least one of all the band members and Isobel kept sitting down between songs so I had to resort to taking some during the songs. All the music was really tight, apart from a mistake form the keyboard guy (I forget his name, he's on the cover of bwtas) but that was funny anyway. I'd now like to redeem myself by stating that I have not been winding you up all this time, my "previous engagement" was cancelled which I found out on wednesday morning. I contacted a sinistery in Sheffield, fixed myself a lift (thanks, Chris and Rchard, and it was nice to meet you, Katie)and reserved my ticket late afternoon, so it was all tres exciting. So now, for those of you who don't know but are afraid to ask (and I know you're out there, I was once in your position), here is some info on the merchandise you CAN'T buy over the website: T-shirts-£12-burgundy with outline of man and women in light blue. Very cool, I now have one. Blue with fluorescent pink car outline. White with fishyclap picture Mouse mat-£5-with red bubble writing B&S and sillustration style woman. Mug-around £5- same as mouse mat but green. badges-set of four-£2 Posters-set sets of 4 (if that makes sense) -£6-each set has 2 album and 2 E.P. pictures.See end of post for appeal... I'm afraid that's all I can remember but I think it covers most. There are also the shirts and patch you can get online. Brian Appleton: very funny. I saw him support himself (John Shuttleworth) and it was better then, I think he needs a slightly longer show and he also had slides etc. but the songs were still hilarious, "so we say, thankyou Brian for your contribution!" Time to go and put up my posters now, which reminds me: SINISTER APPEAL: the slightly irrate woman at the merchandise stand gave me the wrong set of posters. So if any sinisterbite could find it in their hearts to buy me the other at any other gig, I will love you forever (and also pay you back). Details: I would like the set with BWTAS, Dog on Wheels, something something something Seconds of Light and IYFS. (I was given the set with tigermilk). Please please please... someone e-mail me off list and offer, I can then ask one person who replies and not be expected to pay half the list members for the same posters. I will send a cheque for £6, the cost of postage and also a small token of my appreciation on receiving the posters.Thakyou.

Yeah, seagulls exploding, yeah, thatll be grand. Possibly we could use them as bombs the next time sinister fc play nme fc, yeah, thatll be grand. You know this reminds me of when I was a kid we CRASH, what the... Hang on a second; somethings just hit my window... Wait a minute, no it can t be, the pungent smell of strong cannabis, the sickly stench of cheep root whisky, accompanied by a faint whiff of death, and, oh God it is as well. Well look what the cat dragged in. ME: Where the hell have you been ay? PP: Squawk! Fuck me. [brushing off suit] ME: Id rather not PP: Fucking hell! Where the hell havent I been? It all started about eight months ago. I was having a nice little break in Colombia, you know, sun, sand, sangria, trill, the works, nice little holiday. Anyway, it was the last night and you know me, I decided to go gambling, well, while the cats away. ME: What? PP: Mrs PP wasnt there so ME: You didnt take your wife with you, you cheep bastard. PP: Fuck off! [right wing slammed onto desk] Ive been to hell and back and the last thing I need is a lecture from a shitty little wank stain like you okay [pointing index feather]. ME: Sorry, its just that PP: Well, all I ask is a little respect thats all; I used to work my arse off for you bastards and all I ask, the one thing I ask for you to give a little respect to me. ME: Wasnt that a line from a Jimmy Somerville record. PP: Are you taking the cunting piss pall? I mean, do you think Im some sort of mug, some sort of fairy [right wing raised and end feathers made to go limp], Ill tear off your ugly fucking head and shit down your ugly fucking hole you ugly fucking bleeding arse squirrel. Listen pal, one more smart arse bollock from you and [reaching into jacket and removing a Stanley knife] Ill introduce you to my friend Stanley, do I make myself - crystal - fucking - clear. ME: Yes Im sorry. PP: Good. Anyway, I was surrounded by these double hard bastards, real ugly motherfuckers; anyway, I show my hand and fuck my uncle if it isnt a Royal flush. Well, Im quids in. ME: Great, so you cleaned up? PP: Well sort of, I stood up to draw in the mountain of cash on the table and half the deck fell out of my sleeve. ME: Crumbs, I can imagine what your face looked like, so what did you do. PP: What? ME: What steps did you take? PP: Fucking great big ones! I shot out of there like shit off a shovel. I tell you, you couldnt see me for dust, and I was gone man, solid gone! ME: So what happened next? PP: Well, I tried to skip the country but every port was closed, well not closed but as it turns out the people I was playing with got connections with the government and as a result there were hundreds of people at airports, sea ports whatever looking for me. I tell you, it was a bitch. I managed to lie low, cleverly disguising myself as a care worker in an animal hospital. ME: Oh, like Rolf... er, never mind. PP: Thats a lovely smile - do you want another one? I told you, no more wisecracks. No, not like Rolf fucking Harris, just a humble animal lover. Man, I gotta tell you, theres some sick fuckers out there. Like this one time, I had to look after some penguins that came in at about two in the fucking morning or some god dam bastard hour. Its not their fault but two in the fucking morning, for fucks sake. Anyway, theyd been used for internet porn. I mean Jesus and his rubber twat bomb! Can you believe that somewhere, in cyberspace theres a picture of some sicko with his pr - pr - pr - prick up a penguin. Anyway, I managed to get smuggled out in a coffin. I know, but when the Devil vomits on your house you have to take the first council house outta there. Well, you know what I mean. Anyway, I took the suit from the stiff in the coffin; I thought that it was a good idea to take his suit so ME: Youre wearing a dead mans suit? PP: Yeah, so they wouldnt recognise me, anyway, I need to hold up here for a few days, is that okay? ME: Well, err. PP: Good, [puts legs upon newly polished coffee table] ME: But I need a poem though. PP: Oh for fuck sake, dont I get a moments rest, okay, stick this bastard up your arse: THE FACE THAT LAUNCHED A THOUSAND SHIPS - CHRISTOPHER MARLOW Was this the face that launched a thousand ships? And burnt the topless towers of Ilium? Sweet Helen, make me immortal with a kiss: Her lips suck forth my soul, see where it flies! Come Helen, come, give me my soul again. Here will I dwell, for heaven is in there lips, And all is dross that is not Helena. I will be in Paris, and for love of thee, Instead of Troy shall Wertenberg be sackd; And I will combat with weak Menelaus, And wear thy colours on my plumed crest; Yes I will wound Achillis in the heel, And then return to Helen for a kiss. O thou art fairer than the evening air, Clad in the beauty of a thousand stars: Brighter art thou then flaming Jupiter, When he appeard to hapless Semele; More lovely then the monarch of the sky In wanton Arethusas azurd arms; And none but thou shalt be my paramour. +-------------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail sinister(a)missprint.org.
