Sinister: Chelsea Hotel Oral Sex Song
by Grainne Lynch 01 Oct '02

01 Oct '02

Yet another reason why Belle and Sebastian are my favourite band: "I always liked bootlegs. If we do a live album maybe we can give it away for nothing." Stuart Murdoch. Currently rocking my world; 1. Jeffery Lewis and The Last Time I Did Acid I Went Insane. He's a singer/songwriter from New York, and the songs are like weird little stories. I heard The Chelsea Hotel Oral Sex Song on the radio a little over a month ago and totally feel in love with it. The title song is cool too. I think the album is great, it's full of beautiful, slightly crazy songs about all sorts of weird stuff. He did a few gigs in Ireland, at the beginning of August, before I'd even heard of him, and he was supported by The Chalets. Which brings me neatly to the second world rocking thing. I think the Them(e) from Chalets is just the most perfect pop song ever. It's a very funny song about boys not getting laid. So I think you should definitely download it from their website now. Unless you already did (and who would dare disobey the Dirty Vicar) in that case you should listen to it again and wallow in its wonderfulness. It says on their website that they are doing a gig at Strange Fruit at the Garage in London. Is that the same Strange Fruit that's mentioned here, or am I showing how completely clueless I am about the London club scene? Third thing rocking my world: Xfm - Sky Digital Channel 864. I really like this radio station. I think it's because it's so completely shambolic. It makes me giggle and the music's not bad either. I want to work there because it sounds like fun. Fourth world rocking thing: Television Without Pity is bitchy and fun. It deserves to be worshiped. Though it was the bearer of bad news because it was there that I learnt that both Grosse Point and Popular were cancelled after their second series. And that really sucks. I loved those shows. They were really funny and kinda crazy. Fifth thing rocking my world: Sinister!! Because when does it not? It's pretty obvious that I'm unemployed at the moment, isn't it.

DUM DUM <Stuart> Isobel <Stevie> Chris <Richard> Chris <Chris> Richard <Bob> Richard <Isobel> Chris <Orchestra> DUM! <Anne> Bob <Bob> Yes Anne. <Anne> So which world-touring band are you in? Supertramp? <Bob> haha. <Anne> Why Richard? Is it because he can afford a haircut and you can't? <Bob> I just remembered that he got a question wrong earlier on that's all. <Anne> Right.. Stuart! <Stuart> Yes Anne. <Anne> Why Isobel? <Stuart> Because she's with a guy who takes the price for everything I ever showed her!! <Anne> mmm.. ok. Isobel! Why Chris? <Isobel> Chris made me eat all his beans and I farted for 3 straight days! And that's A LOT of farting. <Anne> Well one second of it would have been a lot! Richard, so did Chris make you fart as well? <Richard> No Anne <Richard> Although I think Chris is just a pale imitation of Johnny Marr. <Anne> Well Chris, statistically you weren't the weakest link in that round - but they think that you came from Idiot Country, and it's the votes that count so you ARE the weakest link GOODBYE! * Chris does the walk of shame (..Inside interview room) <Chris> Grr I can't believe the amount tactical voting Richard was doing, yet he kept GETTING AWAY WITH IT! The LUCKY BAG, I hope one of them will GET THE MESSAGE next round, and vote him out. (..Back to studio) <Anne> On to round five team, and so far you have banked the disappointing £220 out of the possible £4000, we're going to take another 10 seconds off the clock and we'll start with the strongest link from the last round, and that's Bob. Let's PLAY.. THEWEAKESTLINK! <Orchestra> DUM DUM DUM DUM... <Anne> Start the clock <Orchestra> DUM DUM! <Anne> Bob, in football, the football club Linfield FC is a football club of which Northern Irish city? <Bob> Belfast! <Anne> Correct! Isobel, according to a song by Queen what kind of girls make the world go round? <Isobel> A girl like me! <Anne> The correct answer is "Fat Bottomed Girls" but I'll accept that as the answer, Stuart, what are the answers to the clues to the treasure hunt? <Stuart> Not telling ya. <Anne> No that isn't the correct answer. Stevie, in the Shakespearian play Romeo And Juliet, Romeo was from the family of Montague, from which family was his lover, Juliet? <Stevie> I know! His lover lies south in the cityyyy! <Anne> No, the correct answer is Capulet. Richard, Siamese, Persian and Manx are all breeds of what animal? <Richard> cats! <Anne> Correct! Bob, St. Anne's cathedral is situated on Donegall Street of which city? <Bob> Belfast! <Anne> Correct! Isobel.. <Isobel> Bank! <Orchestra> DUM... DUM...

Who is too dense for So Solid Crew? It's time for you to VOTE OFF, the WEAKEST LINK! <Jon Briggs> In that round, Bob was once again the strongest link, and Stuart was the weakest link for the first time, will this be reflected in the votes? <Anne> Time's up, it's time to reveal who YOU think is the WEAKEST LINK! <Orchestra> DUM DUM DUM DUM...

Sinister: welcome to the cheap seats
by hannah brown 01 Oct '02

01 Oct '02

hmmm, i feel like having an incestuous and brief love affair with a comleplete stranger, i think they call it a "one night stand", i tried it once and it was twnoml (or in the true sinister style TWINOMLETTE ie "the worst night of my life") We didn't go the whole way (thank fuck), he shat in my bed then made me make breakfast for him.hhmmm, should i be saying this? Do people still have one night stands these days? Do you? I haven't seen so many lurching lovelies on their way to drunkern shagdom of late, maybe i just go to the wrong (or right) places. I could put it down to getting older but that would be a gobshite excuse! So i AM getting older (which is a truely absurd thing to say because you can't do anything but)and lately i have been learning lots of new things about myself, does that sound a bit obsessed? Some things about me are good and others are just so horribly far away from what i want to be that i just can't stop trying to change them. One trait of mine is the inability to take myself seriously, this is why i can't write songs, i get to the lyric stage and just cringe and curl up in embarrasement at any small incling of showing emotion. Even now i am cringing at this e-mail because i am talking quite honestly about how i feel. It's quite exciting to learn new things about yourself but it can be frightening too. By that i mean that if you take all the things that you hate about YOU and try to change, then think of yourself 12 years on with the same bad traits it's quite weird. I may be coming across as being pathetic/depressed but i am neither, it's just about the little things i think of when the light goes out. er yeh, i haven't seen any sini crew for months and i keep missing the london meet ups coz my e-mail access is limited, but next time i gonna chuffing know about it. A good friend of mine told me he thought the idea of a bunch of B&S fans getting together was just horrific, calling us a bunch of saddos who just want to get closer to the band. I argued my point. He squished his face up. I have not been able to look at my friend in the same light ever since. love hannahb " there is no dark side of the moon, it's all dark really" _________________________________________________________________ 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: pale immitations for paul
by Jo tomas 01 Oct '02

01 Oct '02

Paul Healey saw Tompaulin and thought they were a pale immitation of you know who. Who would that be Paul ? The Jesus and marychain ? I love belle and sebastian but I really don't see the comparison. You see I also love Tompaulin and I love The Butterflies. I think that you were at a different concert. "tompaulin tonight are noisier and more assertive than we remember them. From the Mary Chain bassline in Carcrash to the drenching feedback at the end of Swing Low Stuart, the band match sweet vocals with barbed guitar noise and exchange confession for confrontation." sounds sxp The Butterflies of Love were also magnificent. They have also been tagged with the Belle And Sebastian comparions, though not by you Paul! They are a noisy feedback band. It made sense to see Tompaulin and The Buterflies Of Love together. I wory that Belle and Sebastian are becoming our Smiths. By this I mean that new bands are stifled by imposible comparisons they can't live up to and that there is no room for any serious discussion on the merits of recent work. anyway joxx ===== small town night club over a pub/girls in make up thicken the blood __________________________________________________ Do you Yahoo!?
