Sinister: Barmy
by Matthew Henderson 17 Jan '02

17 Jan '02

Hello everyone. I haven't posted in a while, so I thought I'd pop my head in and say 'hello'. So...hello. A busker I met in London a few weeks ago emailed me the other day. She said I was the most unashamed Belle and Sebastian fan she had ever met. Who would be ashamed of being a Belle and Sebastian fan? Surely they aren't filed in the 'guilty pleasures' section along with the Cars "Drive" or Loverboy's "The Girl is Hot Tonight", are they? A conflicting report came from my co-worker, who saw my room last night. He said I act pretty nonchalant about them, but I have posters of them all over my room, so I must be obsessed. Am I subconsciously ashamed of liking them? Is anyone afraid to tell people they are Belle and Sebastian fans? I ordered a Belle and Sebastian coffee mug for use in a new coffee shop I sort of work in. I hope Mrs. House or the rest of the Banchory crew don't mind. Even if they do, I'm using it anyway. Okay, I'm tired. One last note: In the recent belfast gig pictures, you can see me in several shots! In one shot, you can see me holding a cigarette somewhere in the very front around Mick and Stevie. Look for me! The back of my head looks terrific if I do say so myself. -Matt <instead of a quote, just think of the riff from the Fall's "Barmy"> _________________________________________________________________ MSN Photos is the easiest way to share and print your photos: http://photos.msn.com/support/worldwide.aspx +-------------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail sinister(a)missprint.org.

Sinister: oops...
by Ernie Sanchez 17 Jan '02

I didn't realize that I titled everybody's favorite song as "Beyond the Sunset" instead of "Beyond the Sunrise." My apologies to anybody that has been offended, hopefully I don't feel the wrath of Sinister. Honestly though, I really do like that song. Am I the sole Sinister listee who does?

Sinister: there's an angel treading on my dreams...
by Ernie Sanchez 17 Jan '02

17 Jan '02

Hello everyone! Its been a while since I posted. Not that anyone remembers me, I only posted twice and my emails werent memorable. However, although the rest of my life around doesnt seem to be going along so well (the paranoia because of a threat of layoffs at work *hopefully layoff doesnt have a different meaning to any non-Americans, it sounds like something Archel would be into, if the smutty accusations are true*, a cancelled trip to San Francisco to see Sleater-Kinney play with Aislers Set which was truly heartbreaking, and my credit card number being stolen online and used for pornographic websites on the internet), I thought I should do something positive and write to Sinister. First, I would like to announce my divorce from the Wills team, due to irreconcilable differences (in true divorce style, well, at least in America). I will no longer be involved in the mix tape challenge. It was great to be a Will, hope this doesnt cause panic within the Wills United structure (it the Wills even exist). Of course we can still be friends. Just the lack of activity and the fact that Im cheating on the Wills team already by preparing solo mixes for other people has forced me to reconsider my relationship with the Wills. A sad departure, although I think that Ill keep the Cloves surname for now. I saw a strange thing the other day. My local library has various posters throughout the building, of celebrities holding a book and pretending to be reading. They have lame slogans such as "get caught reading" in order to encourage people to read. I doubt that seeing a photograph of Rosie O'Donnell holding a book would encourage me to read, but strangely one of the posters in the series is of Michael Bolton. Not that I was inspired, but after seeing this poster, I read "Pride and Prejudice" the next day. In other news, glad to know that Rachel Fruitloop and Ben Apps had such a wonderful time together! Being one of the few listees who has met Rachel in person, she was so nice and Im looking forward to hearing more about them. ***Southern California listees*** With Storytelling coming out in LA next Friday, we should have another meetup soon! Ill bring along some B&S videotapes if we stay in the film watching mood. *** Ok, this post has just been full of random thoughts, but I will post again on Sinister soon, to give a list of songs that B&S havent performed live. Would anybody be interested in such a list? Of course, it may not be completely accurate, but perhaps we can begin a campaign to see Beyond the Sunset performed live... or maybe not. Alright, I should go now. To anybody that has read this far, congratulations, and Im sorry for my lack of writing skill. Perhaps with more reading, I will aspire to be list crush-worthy.

Sinister: murder was the case that they gave me
by lindsey baker 16 Jan '02

16 Jan '02

hello sinister. first. an epigraph. "so, is she or isn't she?" "is she or isn't she what?" "a phony." "i don't know. i don't think so." "you don't think so, huh? well, you're wrong. she is. on the other hand, you're right, because she's a real phony. you know why? because she honestly believes all that phony junk she believes in." (end of epigraph. beginning of. something.) i always used to think college would be how it is in the movies. i thought the whole shebang would look like strung together scenes from, i don't know, good will hunting and dead poets society and even that horrible with honors, starring brendan frasier as a non-neanderthal man. i think i secretly hoped, too, for a bit of dazed and confused and a splash of saved by the bell: the college years action. i wanted autumn-colored campuses and pretty, intelligent people writing papers and reciting poetry and falling in love and somewhere in between all that wise poignancy finding out what life is really supposed to be about. and then. i came to college. you don't always get what you want, i guess. what i have instead is a sparse gray concrete campus with bare trees and a metropolitan border of cornfields and flat roads. i have the frat boy who cooked me and my roommate dinner in exchange for the stocking cap i bought my ex-kind-of-boyfriend. i have roaches. i have i have i have well. i don't know if i have anything i want. or wanted. there are times, i have found, of some kind of etheral disruption, where the feeling of sudden displacement is inevitable and unexpected and inexplicable while still being both terrifying and delicious. i have always prided myself on being one of those who spent a large part of her life searching for herself, and successfully found something that might in some way equate to a complete, satisfying sense or knowledge of self. and suddenly, in these last few days of displacement, i think i may have been deluding myself a bit. i am lost. again. or maybe still. are all my posts like this? maybe. maybe that's a product of whatever it is that is wrong with the way things are. i used to be a big-time geek. and i liked it. because even if i hadn't been the happiest of girls all the time, i was me. not who everyone wanted me to be or thought i should be. and eventually, as i got older, i realized that people were always trying to fit me neatly into some such category or other. and around the end of my sophomore year of high school, i got pissed off and wrote. and ran in the high school newspaper exactly why i shouldn't have to be categorized, and just why such categories were bunk to begin with. i think the bulk of it consisted of why cheerleaders were not so something, after all. i spent the rest of my high school year belittling, i've heard, so-called things that some people allegedly loved or cared about. like fights in the hallway and tube tops and whatnot. and i knew the smiles and the popularity i gained were fake, and i liked it. because i could get through the day, then, knowing that everyone watched and wondered and never really quite knew. because i could spend my friday night with a bowl of jiffypop and john cusack because i wanted to, because i had no obligations to anyone other than myself. and the overly made-up girls could smile and invite me to their parties. the school could talk about my columns. and i could simply say thank you, and resign myself to the back journalism room to write. talking about that time with someone a few days ago, i had forgotten exactly what all i had written about in high school. and i realized i had certainly forgotten exactly why i wrote any of it. i am now the official fashion maven of my college newspaper; tuesday, my column about the benefits of wearing scarves ran at the bottom of the front arts page. i have always loved clothes, to be sure, and now, for some reason or other, i and my editors have decided that i am somehow qualified to tell people how they should dress, perhaps because i myself apparently dress well. and i love giving advice. but when i turned my story in monday night, i felt pretentious. partly because i am now locked into a role to which i probably really have no right; to compensate, i make sure i always tell people to take risks and wear what they love. (as an added bonus, i really do mean that.) but also because my fashion advice has a strong indie bias. i have begun planning out a series that will, in subtle truth, be an advocate for thrift stores and brown sweaters and band t-shirts. and so i see that not only am i telling people how to dress, i am, in truth, also attempting to shove them toward a category of people i myself am longing to be a true part of. i recently ended a just-begun romance with the first real, live twee boy i have ever layed lips to because he was trying to decide what kind of indie girl i am. if i am emo or indie punk or indie pop or indie rock. and i was irritated, not realizing why it wasn't OK to just be indie me. when what i should have been thinking all along was why it wasn't OK to just be me. i am not perfect. i am not an angel or a goddess or any of those other things i sometimes hear. i'm not always the nicest of girls. i don't, to my horror, know fully who i am. i am not as indie as i'd like to be. some days, i'm rather horrifyingly preppy. and i don't know if would be happier being one way all the time, with one consistent style of dress and manner and kindness and music taste. i used to know that i wouldn't be. i listened to belle and sebastian while i shopped ebay for fendi handbags. i listened to elliott smith while i got dressed in my new gap skirt and blouse. and neither the music nor the clothes nor whatever category i was in made me who i am. whoever that is. and at the end of all this, the realization, i suppose, that i try to make myself something instead of just being something without effort -- at the end of it all, i am still not any further than i was in the beginning. instead, i am only aware that i am human, and that the world is in and of itself not strung together scenes of happy people but a duality of joy and sorrow, being found and being lost. and i shall always, always be both at the same time. i have started to believe that perhaps a cure for my growing apathy, as it were, or a way to feel more found than lost is to start back at the beginning and retrace my steps with the new, or maybe old, reminder that the purpose of live is to live, even with the daily 50-50 chance of attaining one pure feeling or one absolute truth. and so. in a little while. i am leaving home. with the intention, i guess, to find out what really does lie beyond my cornfields, and why it is really no different. and so miss lindsey "is she or isn't she" lou reluctantly decides to annouce her pending voyage to scotland. even homer figured it out in the end. yourlou _________________________________________________________________ Chat with friends online, try MSN Messenger: http://messenger.msn.com +-------------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail sinister(a)missprint.org.

Sinister: you could say he is barking up the wrong bush/ohh and any parisian listees
by staralful - 16 Jan '02

16 Jan '02

Dear All I hope this finds you all in fine form. I personally am rather stressed out with school etc- I think they call it final year blues or something like that. Homework is a bugger isnt it? No sooner do you catch up on it all than you get more of it and then you have to study some-Four more months I hear my teachers say-frankly I believe I am buggered but enough about me lets talk about you. I have been enjoying the posts recently. I only really started reading the list properly again recently cos I go through stages of being bored-not necessarily with posts in particular but more with the bother of reading them all thoroughly- but that is all over and done with now and I can get back to enjoying them once more. Hmmm I suppose I should really get some content in- hmm can I just say they are great and leave it at that and that I really really really really like them and their newish single. I heard camera obscura the other night over my rather dodgy real player and thought they sounded rather groovy. Ahhh so we are into day 16 of the saga and may I say that I for one really support it. It smells nice and looks nice and the old punt is now in its new role of recyled toilet paper which is where it should be . ( although I will miss James Joyce staring at me from the ₤10 note. I am reading this incredible book at the moment called tales of American life edited by Paul Auster and may I recommend it to everyone. It is a collection of about 160 different stories written by normal American folk about their lives under the headings of love death war meditations slapstick strangers etc etc and so forth. It is quite sentimental which surprised me as I am quite an unsentimental person and so I dont quite know why I liked this book so. Right are they any listees in Paris or who have lived there or know it quite well cos I am in the midst of planning a trip there ( tickets and time out guide already in the bag as is accommodation) and my travelling companions and I would like to know the slightly off beat places to hang out because although we plan for all the touristy things We also want inbetween that and apartment hunting for my brother a nice place to hang out in the evenings either a club bar or coffee house to keep our minds off the fact that when we return we have to face our finals (me school and two college finals) so if anyone can be of assistance then please email me here at staralful(a)hotmail.com Right I suppose I should go really Thanks for your time and I remain your humble and obedient servant ******* staralful ******** icq # 147545806 "Are you calling Mr Simpson a liar?"-----" Not exactly -but we do have this fottage of him with his pants on fire" _________________________________________________________________ MSN Photos is the easiest way to share and print your photos: http://photos.msn.com/support/worldwide.aspx +-------------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail sinister(a)missprint.org.

Sinister: 5 days without alcohol
by Mark Casarotto 16 Jan '02

16 Jan '02

Well hello. Much time has been spent on #sinister today, which is becoming rather a nice habit to sink back into (who needs a job after all?). I complained thereon about the price of courgettes, which Ken tells me is because water is v expensive at the moment. I am quite happy to buy dried courgettes for a fraction of the price, as my tap water is paid for by direct debit so it may as well be free. Hannah, I'm certainly up for being paid to leap on people's stomachs, though sadly the likely hours of such a profession aren't too appealing. Having said that, if the wages are good enough... Few things happen in a day at home, which keeps interesting chatter to a minimum. I don't do a very good line in philosophising about everything and nothing (unless you get me pissed), and it's now late in the day. Still, I thought I'd pop by and say g'night, and ask people to send me any fantastic dieting recipes they may have. There's an extra stone hanging down from my belly, and I'm not talking about my legendarily oversized man-bits.

Sinister: posessed!!
by elise j. spry 16 Jan '02

16 Jan '02

Hey Y'all, How is everyone? Good, good. Jimmy and I have been watching a lot of BBC videos lately (Dr. Who, Ultraviolet) and I find that I�m starting this awful habit where I talk with a fake british accent. Does this happen to people from other countries when you watch american TV? I hope Jim isn�t getting sick of it, in fact I�m really wishing he�ll find it amusing and charming. (do you, darling?) Ken Chu is a delicious Chinese dumpling. He told me so himself. I was on #sinister last night, and I got rather carried away expressing my opinion of The Real World. I�d just like to apologise to any Real World or MTV fans I may have offended. I was momentarily possessed my one of my former personalities whom I thought I�d eradicated long ago. The extra bitchy, judgmental one. Anyway, sorry. Tooting One's Own Horn Section: If any one of you needs some interior decorating advice, just email me offlist. I gave some hints to out little Sean for his first apartment and he says they are ace. He's going to buy me a soft, fuzzy pink hat with attached ears in return. I also dog- and house-sit, at least I'm about to for the first time next month. I really hope nothing goes wrong, cos it's for someone who I work with!! I think the main objective is Not To Lose The Dog. It's back to work for me now. Stay Sinister!! Love and leather trousers, Lisey __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?

Sinister: The Impending Spider of Wonder and Grateness
by JENOWL22＠aol.com 16 Jan '02

16 Jan '02

Hewwo, Guess what? You'll never believe it. It's the best thing in the whole world bar nothing. Guess what my mum says I can have...? A spider (!). How grate is that? I love spiders. I've loved them since I was six and I had a little garden spider in a jar and its name was Lucky the Magic Spider and it did tricks and it crawled up one of my sleeves and out the other. It lived in a jamjar with its friend which was a worm called violet (because I call everything Violet. It's my favourite name to call things). But then one day he vanished. My brother says the worm ate him but I know what really happened. See Lucky decided he didn't like flatsharing because Violet drank all the milk in the fridge and never hoovered, so he used his magic powers to turn himself invisible and he let himself out the backdoor with one of those bundles on a stick that had two cheese sandwiches and a bottle of ribena (spider size) and he went off to have adventures in my back garden where he continues to live a long happy life, possibly with another girl spider. My mum says why do I want a spider, shouldn't I get a little furry thing like a hamster. But there are enough people in the world to look after hamsters. More people need to buy pets that not everyone likes. In fact, people should always buy stuff thats old or worn or a bit lopsided or not as pretty as other things, to love it and give it a home. If you only buy things that are nice is like going out with a posse girl. She's nice and all, to look at and stuff, and the more you pay for her the nicer she'll be to you, but she's never going to love you like someone who's scruffy. Or something. I don't know. Johnjohn's post was nice. It reminded me of the time I found a baby bird that was injured and it hopped off the bush it was on and into my hand and it pecked at my gummi bears then died. It couldn't have been more like an episode of that really old program and the theme tune was about a tree that got struck by lightning. It went like "down in the meadow where the wind grows free in the middle of a field stands the lightning tree, it's limbs all torn from the day it was born for the tree was born in a thunder storm" and there was a farm in it. I liked the lightning tree because it was cool. It never gave up no matter what. Even though it got hit by lightning the second it came into the world it never thought "I'll just curl up and be bitter." or "I'll just die". It wanted to grow and stretch out, even though it grew up and people thought it was odd and ugly and different it never stopped thinking the world was magical and special and that there was a place for it somewhere. I've got a friend who moans about his life all the time. He's always complaining about being fat, or loud or too soft with women or how some girl doesn't fancy him. But he never does anything to change himself even though he's not happy. He just comes in and sits down and mopes and wallows like a big depressed hippopotamus and he goes on the internet all the time instead of going out and seeing the world with all the trees and the flowers and the electrical pylons that look like space age castles for chess people and it mokes me off. In my next life I'm planning on being a tapdancer. It's probably a handy skill. I wanted to be a cheerleader but when I was the right age for it I was too obese and now I'm just too old. I don't feel old though. And I don't have any wrinkles yet even though I made it to a whole 16 years. But I do have some cool scars. Wanna see?

Sinister: part 2: (of Aussie listee's plea:)) Anyone for Trash? other clubs?
by Kin Woo 16 Jan '02

16 Jan '02

hiya again:) Sorry for 2 emails in such quick succession, but sent off last email forgetting to write about this. This kinda relates to the more club-oriented Sinisterinies in London anyway:) Could London listees please recommend some excellent clubs to me? Was supposed to check out Embassy Bar in Islington cos some Warp DJ's were playing but err didn't. (friend got sick) Am really hoping to check out Fabric this Friday (James Lavelle, Stanton Warriors) but will see what my friend (also from Australia) has to say. If not, mebbe 93feeteast (Aphex Twin, leila) will be good? Any suggestions of any cool clubs to check out??? Was sad to have missed Heavenly New Year social, that woulda been ace! Also, does anyone know when the next Basement Jaxx Rooty session will be? Any when and where??? While really don't mind checkin' out gigs by myself, clubs is an entirely different matter. That is definitely more of a group thing and am sad I don't have my err 'posse' here with me:) If any London listees wouldn't mind recommending some clubs (and p'raps meeting me even?:)), I'd be so tremendously grateful. Last time I was in London ('99) didn't get to check out any clubs and am determined to rectify that this time:) I'm told Trash at The End on Monday nights is very good (indie disco eclectic mix). Has any listee checked it out and what is the general consensus on it??? Would be ace to meet some listees there at Trash? Finally, what are some cool (as in interesting and great vibe as opposed to pretentious) bars to check out??? Alright then, any other clubs, art exhibitions, happenings in general that would be cool to check out in the next few weeks, let me know ok hope to hear from some of you guys soon Kin Woo +-------------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail sinister(a)missprint.org.

Re: Sinister: i'm waking up to ubscarscabs (B&S NEW ALBUM INFO!)
by LilGrape25＠aol.com 16 Jan '02

16 Jan '02

There seems to be a flaw in ken's calculations, as it is unbelievable clear, even with only my partial high school education, that the number of words of belle and sebastian titles must be a pyramid, as there are 11 of them.
