Sinister: i feel heavenly when she says i am heavenly but she is more heavenly
by Danny Farrell 02 Jan '02

02 Jan '02

hello lovelies, it's been a wee while,i guess. so much has happened, so. I was indeed part of the lovely dundee group just before christmas consisting of mr william gneissy,zozefina and of course the adorable if slightly bossy rachel.the last dundee picnic,which was wonderful, consisted of only four people so was this another unofficial picnic,i wonder. we ate fajita's and drank sangria,and lot's was said,and lot's was not said too.a lovely time. I've had the flu through most of christmas,i managed to make it to the B&S gig though but i was quite delirious through most of it though,which wasn't fun and can remember very very little of it. the christmas period was fun indeed,mostly spent with alan and ryan.Hearts were broken and drink was consumed and hearts where mended a little and hearts changed hands and some stars were allowed to shine brighter in the sky as some fell.Oh did i mention drink was consumed,i guess maybe a little too much,or maybe not enough.i....me,well i did what i always try to do.i strived for the future,the one where i get what i truly want,regardless of proposals from ex's and ex friend girls,who i really wish would just leave me alone to be.be me,be complete. yes friend-girls and ex's. the ex never leaves me alone,but it seems the friend-girl she only ever wants me when i don't need her,when i have someone else,when i have the chance to be happy,she crawls out of the woodwork and tries to do everything she possibly can to throw the proverbial spanners in the machinery,but she didn't,i didn't let her.for once.and i don't intend to ever.i have hope. i met the adorable kirsten marie kenyon who it seemed was just as much the fun queen in the flesh as she is on our very own wee sinister,although this was only from five minutes as the poor wee soul was shattered from travelling et al. she gave me saltine crackers from someone,not someone random,someone in particular.my baker.bakers usually make bread not crackers,this baker is special. I have talked with a few of my friends about nirvana recently,i'm not sure why actually,but yes,i used to really like them,now i don't.very little anyway.anyway,yes theres something that draws me back to them very infrequently when i feel a certain way and here it is. Kurt's voice,the groaning,the screaming,the shouting.this is undeniable but there is something there,right at the centre, a touch of honey,of sugar of sweetness. i like to think of this as hope.That although he feels so much pain as evidenced by the lyrics and the screaming and the actions et al.he had this tiny core of hope,that coated his voice and in some ways made him beautiful.his honey centre,his hope.i'd like to think he believed that maybe it would all get better,that the world and his life would become beautiful for him. I have this hope now,i had it locked away tight inside of me for a long time but now someone has let it free and it radiates all around me making me glow in a way i have never felt before,i hope.for life.for more. Mr Cobain couldn't keep this hope and nurture it and become whole again i hope.we all can. i love lou,i mean you......i mean take care your danny xxx _________________________________________________________________ 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: tonight auld lang syne means leave before the kissing starts...
by Andrew Williams (UKHQ - Merch) 02 Jan '02

02 Jan '02

Hello Sinister, Hope you are all well and had a great new year. We had a fantastic time at Track & Field in London, and also managed to catch up with the Strange Fruit people as well so all in all we saw just about everybody. I have been happy since Christmas cos I got a dart board, and it is now my new years resolution to score 180 in open play, hopefully against Matt Powell. My other resolutions are to have a song I write played on the radio, continue to stop smoking and write two books (one fiction, one non-fiction). I thought I would drop you a line, beacuse there was a little mini-interview with Stuart in the Scotsman the other day (I buy it for the Derek Allen crossword) and I thought you might be interested, hope it hasn't already been mentioned. There is probably a link to a website, but anyway, here it is... STUART MURDOCH, SINGER WITH BELLE & SEBASTIAN. Best thing you saw in 2001? "Gary Teale's mesmerising performances in the Ayr midfield. We will miss him." Best thing you heard? "The Camera Obscura LP." Strongest memory? "Sarah singing 'Baby', a beautiful Brazilian song, to beautiful Brazilians in Sao Paulo." Looking forward to...? "I'm looking forward to seeing more of the ball." New Year's resolution? "I resolve to become immortal. And then die." And that was it really. Nice plug for the Camera Obscura album though, and well done to them and Saloon for their Festive 50 placings. For anyone who's interested my favourite album of 2001 was "Once" by the Tyde. Right, well I'll be off then. See some of you soon, the rest of you take care, lots of love, Andrew.

Sinister: drifting into the arena of the unwell
by R.Playforth＠sussex.ac.uk 02 Jan '02

02 Jan '02

i saw in the new year with a quick snog before returning to suitably festive programming - 'the wicker man' on channel 4. we know how to party in brighton. i had been to a party beforehand, actually, but left as soon as vomit became a feature. i am a grown-up now, after all. christmas was fine, lovely. chaos did threaten to break out over a game of Balderdash, due to my gran forgetting the rules every 5 seconds, but a few more gin and tonics all round and we were miraculously in harmony again. at least one member of the family was asleep at any given moment on xmas day, which also helped keep the peace. i did not go bowling. this is because i was dramatically ill with what may have been flu, but was more likely chocolate withdrawal. also my boyfriend hoovered up my knitting by mistake so my bowling outfit was ruined... instead i pondered a lot on the events of 2001 (both personal and political) and decided that i am in danger of wasting my life. coming back to work and finding the place like a tomb hasn't helped with this feeling - i'm doing about as much good behind this desk as a stapler. i suppose the fact that i'm moving into my lovely flat at the dawning of 2002 is a good omen, but what was i thinking renting an attic? i have spent the morning lugging shelves, futons, chairs and assorted junk up an unreasonable number of stairs and have rushed to work probably covered in dust. well, only 363 more days to mess up... luv archel xxx +-------------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail sinister(a)missprint.org.

Sinister: A short word on ornithology
by Rebecca Wright 02 Jan '02

02 Jan '02

Felicitous salutations to y'all on this the new year and the dawning of my time out of the nursery. Guess how many times I nearly but not quite slid over and fell on my arse whilst walking through this frosty winter wonderland on my way to work?! The highlight of my hols was Friday when I saw Courtney Pine down at the jazz cafe in Camden, I had a copy of 'Fold your hands child..' with me- recently purchased at a late nite record store when we found we'd shown up 2 hours early. Started off with a jazzy version of Nirvana's 'Come as you are', the rest of the evening was just a joyous noise for my untrained ear but apparently there was some Zeppelin and others entwined within. The rest of the time was spent watching late night Hitchcock with my sister, 'Rear Window' makes it almost possible to forgive James Stewart for 'It's A Wonderful Life' plus I had forgotten just how wonderfully papier-mache the villains of 'The Birds' were. And now a loud cheer for the wonderful people at RSPB or National Trust- whoever it was who now has my home town swarming with red kites. At first it was all top secret and only Mr Gibbons the farmer had any confirmed sightings but on one of my bored, post A-level rambles lo' above one hillock was a big eagle type bird with that concave tail kites have! For a good ten minutes I watched it until *BANG* both of us jump. What sounds awfully like a gun echoes for a second time from the house at the bottom of said hillock. A mental picture- red faced tweed infested Berkshire farmer "Ge' Offw my Lan'!!", some evil bastard who deserves to be hung up by his toe-nails has been poisoning some of the kites so maybe it's the bird and not me he's aiming for. In the end we both scarper just to be on the safe side (in retrospect I admit it was most likely a car back-firing.) And now Sinister these gorgeous birdies have found a nice little niche in the Chiltern ecosystem and are everywhere, along the roadsides, circling over admin's pub lunches, one swooping low over the back garden one Sunday- The End. Becky P.S. cheers to whoever posted that review on The Reindeer Section, have purchased accordingly. +-------------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail sinister(a)missprint.org.

Sinister: (My ball's got) miraculous technique
by Kenneth P Y Chu 02 Jan '02

02 Jan '02

Oh no the snow stop snowing, maybe we'll get some bowling* and drinking in, before taking off to the skys pretend that you're giraffe, why does her lazy eye rest on his skin, his balls and his bowling shoes? Take a look, around you, the spring had sent the sound of rain upon your window sill So grab your balls and hit a strike for me I think that I've forgotten how to bowl but I know the reason I want to curl shots down a lane That's why we're on the late shift He stole his shoes, I've bought a crate of red bull To commemorate the day Take a look, around you There's too much drinks around the table where you're sitting still so grab your straw, and suck it all for me STRINGS AND FLUTE BIT And now my legs are weak, but if I Hear DDR speak then I'll start dancing She's got miraculous technique If I could be a song, I could be that one that they played in stevie's room And dance with you the whole night long Take a look, around you, the drinks had sent me all dancing around the windowsill so grab your coat, and worship songs for me <Slightly properer reporting back> So, that was the London division of the SINISTER INTERNATIONAL BOWLING DAY. Our effort was 15 people strong, and we split into three teams and played against each other, in the friendliest of ways. (i.e. no tripping up people on opposing teams) Overall winner were the "enzymes" who won convincingly despite losing 2 team members during the second game. Top score of the day was 157. We then carried on drinking, played DDR, and then danced to some P!O!P! at Mr Trousers'. Highlights include the successful stealing of bowling shoes, the drinking of beer, the exhibition of world-class level pool playing, the purchase of too many energy drinks, the eating of food, the "stereo worshipper" dancing. Thank you for everyone who turned up, hope you all had a great time, and more thanks to miss SGS for having the original idea of going bowling in the first place, and the boy G, who claimed the prize of a pair of lovely (smelling) bowling shoes. So, where are the reportings back from the rest of the world's SINISTER INTERNATIONAL BOWLING DAY? Hope you all went bowling! Or I would be very disappointed. Red Bulls and Red Bulls Ken * just as a note of interest, apparently "bowling" in the original sturan song refers not to 10-pin bowling but the much more exciting crown green bowling. _________________________________________________________________ Send and receive Hotmail on your mobile device: http://mobile.msn.com +-------------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail sinister(a)missprint.org.

Sinister: Are we talking about the bird or the chocolate bar?
by John Jennings 01 Jan '02

01 Jan '02

Roight Hello. Well i hope you've all been having fun over christmas and new year. i've been sat around.... i've done a bit of work... i went to sheffield and met will and dimitra which was nice... i went to nottingham and walked around going 'gah this is so much better than leicester' which i do periodically to remind myself that my home city is ace. and it is. so there. My mission for over christmas was to say the words 'my band' in as many sentences as possible, with as many people as possible... apparently its 'subtle advertising' and people who previously hated us will be flocking to see us when we next play (this month.. hurrah)... that was the plan.... 'it makes me sound like i'm in a pathetic college band though' i whined when it was suggested to me.... 'but you are in a pathetic college band' was the answer... which is very true... my band my band my band my band. ahem. New years is always such an anticlimax isn't it? I went to a party. sat around. got cold (ooh did i mention it had snowed in leicester? now i can join in these snow conversations that everyone seems to be having. hurrah) and then went home. ooh but its now 2002. wow. it sounds very futuristic doesn't it? Just think of all that science fiction that is set now, and last year as well. I have a horrible feeling we're disappointing past generations though. Lets see, influencial inventions of the last decade... erm... dual cyclone vacuum cleaner... dvd players....and i saw a body dryer thing on tomorrows world which was quite impressive... sigh. how depressing. oh hang on you're supposed to be positive for the new year aren't you. damn. Well anyway, I hope all Sinister people have a super grate 2002 with extra bits of grateness stuck in unexpected places (erm... please interpret this is the most innocent sense). its gonna be a super grate year methinks.

Sinister: tales of a tortured bus ride
by trish delish 01 Jan '02

01 Jan '02

hi kids i suppose it's a little late to be reviewing the belfast gig, so i'll just add my shout outs to all the members of the sinister massive who were there (though a slightly muted shout to the pervy priest (Aka dirty vicar) for his disparaging title about the kids on the bus) actually, i think those of us who travelled on the bus deserve some kind of prize....someone mentioned their hope that we introduce the presumably bemused bus driver to the joys of b and s. well, seamus and louise came prepared with tapes, and so impressed was the bus driver that he drove the last 100 miles home with the window down (sub zero temperatures bedamned) and once the tape had ended, decided on a musical/cultural exchange by bombarding us with the joyful 106.8 fm, dublin's ONLY country music radio station...who'da thunk it? personal faves included the delightful rockabilly version of away in a ma-a-a-nger, and the song whose title i missed, but whose chorus told of the boy who drove his car to the county fair, got bar-beee-kew sauce on his shirt, and a girl who was killing him with her mini skirt. ah, much as i try to describe the joys, only those of us who experienced it will share that special bond... so on to other things....actually, one thing i would like to mention about the belfast gig is that some of the crowd really could have gotten into the spirit of things a little more....some wag beside me on the balcony provided endless entertainment to his mates by (loudly) calling isobel a dickhead every time she opened her mouth to sing....a pity, i hope she didn't mind too much. otherwise, it really was a fab gig in every way, someone reviewing glasgow mentioned it was great to see them all enjoy themselves, which i thought in belfast too - a lovely change from the guitar smashing antics of dublin in times past and so, it's off to bed and dreams of a year when i can smugly say i managed at least 24 hours before breaking all my resolutions (i write this surrounded by chocs, ciggies and nary a heterosexual man in sight) happy new year kids trish delish ps actually, writing that last bit, i've had a bit of a belated epiphany - could the chocs and ciggies be responsible for the last bit? hmmmmmmmmmmmmmm! pps i promise that as of now, i will never ever mention the word bus in a sinister post again...it really can't be that interesting to those, ohhh 1387 of you, who weren't on it...nitenite! +-------------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail sinister(a)missprint.org.

RE:Sinister: just a thought for astrid
by Astrid Wiezell 01 Jan '02

01 Jan '02

Hey, Hahaha. I´m sorry, but I didn´t think anyone could mistake be for being a boy, but, um, Astrid is a girlname, and I am a girl, so, you do the maths. I guess that was what I wanted to say. Oh, right, about the new year, well I hope that you all will have a nice year, and all that. I´m going to do things I´m afraid of this year. Lots of stuff like: *Record demo with band, which I am truly scared of since I am afraid that tey guy in the studio will laugh at me or just sigh and roll his eyes when I start playing. *Have first proper gig with band. Stagefright is something I kind of have, just sometimes but I can imagine this will be one of those moments when I stand there trembling. *Quitting the school I´m in now, or, well, I´m going to quit it along with everyone else in it, because we are the oldest class now so I´ll start a completely new school which will be fantastic and really reliefing but still scary. *Going to England for a while. I dunno why it´d be scary, but, well, I guess it is. It´s a different country? No, that´s not scary, and my mum´ll be there. Maybe I´ll meet a certain boy there. THAT scares me. Oh, right, I´m going to get myself a boyfriend as well.. oh wait.. that´s what I say every year.. well, better luck for this one I can only hope! Lots of love from THE GIRL, Astrid x p.s haven´t you heard of the female author Astrid Lindgren? She wrote Pippi Longstocking, Madicken, Mio my Mio and lots of more books. Oh well. Just making it clear that I am in fact a girl. _________________________________________s_p_r_a_y_ Här börjar Internet!

Sinister: What did you get for Christmas this year?
by AN 01 Jan '02

01 Jan '02

31st December 2001 My grandmother says she heard that after each Christmas one gains about 7 lbs (3 kg). I believe and hope for chrissake that she's wrong. ((Heavy)) I should start with wishing you all a merry post-christmas and a happy post-new year. Or maybe I should finish with that. As I have wished for a while now I got a portable cd/mp3-player for Christmas. Putting together good mp3-cd's for it will keep me busy for a while. ((Happy)) How thoughtful of Miss Llew to post (earlier in December) a "How To Write A Sinister Post"-post! I have read it carefully though I think I might be doing things in the wrong order. I started with forgetting about being coherent, then I went on to forgetting about being witty as well. I hope it will work out anyway. (Also umm thanks to Mr Chu for his err "How not to write a sinister post"-post.) I have started listening to my Bathers tapes again. Had almost forgotten about them. Earlier this month I was going to do some Christmas baking(?) and since we only have a cassette player in the kitchen I had to find a good band to enjoy meanwhile. I found The Bathers! Ok, it's not exactely washing-up music, or any kind of real dance-moving music but it was really nice to just "float" around in the kitchen, singing along a little here and there and stomping your feet in the floor at certain times for better expression. Maybe because it reminds me of my lovely trip to Glasgow. ((Hovering)) Girlie snowangel Astrid (Hi sweet!) wrote about the song "Meatballs in your nose" and me being swedish and one of those on the list who knows this song, I couldn't help but laugh myself silly when I read it! ((Hee-hawing)) She also said: "I haven´t met a single person yet not to have laughed about it." (The meatball song) "What does that say about my friends? (Don´t answer that!)" My parents laughed at that song. What does that say about my parents? I have discovered that I have a cousin with fairly good taste in music. A while ago I asked him what kind of music he listens too, and it seemed then like he mostly listened to some kind of underground hip hop music and basically no-good-music. But last time we met, in September, he had been to a Fosca gig. And now that we met on Christmas Eve he had been to this gig with a wonderful Swedish singer/songwriter Kristofer Åström, whom I had also seen. I'm starting to happily believe that there is hope for my cousin after all. Maybe we'll go to a gig together next year. Tomorrow is New Years Eve. Forgot to buy Champagne! (Sheesh stupid girl) But that will be sorted out I think. Can always drink someone elses champagne, "accidentally". I plan to get drunk and gigglish and silly and happily silly and annoyingly silly and madly silly...all as usual. ((Helter-skeltering)) Next time...next year! ********************************************************** 1st January 2002 Happy New Year! They will all come back to me. The memories of last night. I'm quite sure they will, they always do. I've never had any blackouts (at least none caused by too much alcohol). Though I have never been that drunk before, and I was a little worried earlier this morning about how I would feel later on. But I'm ok. Great party, great fun, great new year indeed! The list of needless knowledge: 1. I taught myself how to drink white wine 2. I spilled some wine 3. Me and my friend V sent an SMS to a person we knew and who's phone number we thought we knew. A couple of confused SMS's later we started believing that we could have been wrong. The guy on the other end had the nerve to call us his concubines 4. I met an old classmate I hadn't seen in 2 years 5. Friend M began exclaiming that he was a concubine 6. I tried to get the music from the stereo to make sense. Failure 7. I wrestled with the cd's 8. Friend V snogged with the host 9. Friend M realised what "concubine" actually meant and decided he did no longer wish to be a concubine. Instead he thrusted the title upon me 10. I got two unexpected guests following me back to my house to stay the night. (They came from another city and had no place to sleep. Luckily my parents were out of town) 11. I woke up today and found a bruise as big as a mandarine (and I'm not exaggerating!) on my left leg below the knee. I have absolutely no idea of what I have done. 12. Me and the unexpected guests just finished watching Ivanhoe. Now they have headed for home Ivanhoe has almost become a must on new year's day. I don't know why. Think about it, the hero lies wounded throughout most of the film because of one little wound, and he is in love with one woman but seduces another. What kind of hero does that make him, really? Still, he is Ivanhoe. It's my friend's birthday tomorrow, and we are going to another party at some guy who's birthday it is too. And on the 5th there's a moving-in-party to attend. I'm not sure if neither my wallet nor my head will manage it. I can't think of anything else to write now, the state that I am in. So finally I'd just like to say, Belle and Sebastian!
