Sinister: Help! Canucks Need Floors
by Nicola Pezolet 28 Mar '02

28 Mar '02

Hello fellow Sinisterites! Karolyne (Milky^) and I (Humanity) from #sinister, Are officially coming down (I mean we have tickets) from our French speaking province of Quebec to see our beloved Belle and Sebastian down in Boston and in New York City. And since we are relatively poor and that we don't want to resort to staying at a McDonald's all night drinking coffee... We were therefore wondering if anyone of you out there would have the kindness of letting us in their humble abode and allow us to sleep on their floor ? We are as quiet as field mice. And if for some reason you come around Quebec City or Montreal in the future, it would be a pleasure for us to accommodate you. It would be really appreciated! And it would mean good karma for you, in the end.

Sinister: Oldmen bingo cliche
by Kenneth P Y Chu 28 Mar '02

28 Mar '02

How's things sinister? Hope you're all well, but then how can you not be feeling happy it is Spring time (people on the Southern hemisphere have autumn now and that's not to be sniffled at either)? Yes spring is finally actually here, I can tell because the big fuck-off spiders are crawling out of their big fuck-off hideouts to my house to give me a big fuck-off scare; and today at lunchtime I took a walk around the pretty lake next to our place of work, and the ducks have started their mating rituals already. All the young drakes were there, competing for attention of the young feminine, flapping their wings, and racing each other along the waves and serenading their maidens on the top of their lungs. At the end the lady duck went for the largest drake. Shallow, maybe, but then I suppose that's why ducks are confined to the shallow ponds. The two rejected male swam away, there wasn't another single female duck around. Too tired to cry foul, the fowls retire to sulk over the cruelty of the world - one day they'd learn that there's no point. No use, to be sulking. Anyway, Dimitra, whose name now seems synonymous with picnics (for all the good reasons), proposed for a picnic on the Wednesday before the Brixton gig. Unfortunately, unless she decides to hold this next to my office in Milton Keynes (hey, we have a lake here at least - with shagging in it, no less, plus other filth), I'd have to send my apologies as I have to work that day. However, on this coming Sunday, there is a one-day concert/DJing extraveganza organised by Track and Field called "Pow! to the people" (yes..) at The Monarch in Camden/Chalk Farm, featuring the illustrious Camera Obscura, no less, plus other bands. That band itself features Stuart Murdoch's very own lady duckling Tracy-Anne, no less, plus other members, and possibly someone from our very own Sinister Parish, so there are even B&S connections for those of you who are obsessed. And everyone in London are recommended to go. I don't know what the format of the event (yes, the Track and Field event) is to be like, the website says the doors open at 2pm, so maybe there's even time for a picnic beforehand, for those of you who are inclined in that way. It is v.close to primrose hill. Ducks and Red Bulls Ken P.S.: I wonder, now that all three B&S treasure hunt trophies have been found, if the answers to the various treasure hunt clues will be revealed to us any time soon. P.S.2.: Why was Hannah Brown in a bath full of jizzz the last time she posted? I am intrigued, is it just another mystery that I'll never solve? X-box: I can't think of a moral for the duck story apart from the lucky duck gets a fuck. _________________________________________________________________ Join the worlds largest e-mail service with MSN Hotmail. http://www.hotmail.com +-------------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail sinister(a)missprint.org.

Sinister: London picnic plans
by Sam Walton 28 Mar '02

28 Mar '02

Hello again. Dimitra suggested that plans be laid for a London picnic. Although I'm not keen to be the picnic-mummy per se, I would like to suggest the following: Having perused an A-Z, Brixton and the surrounding area does not have much green space where boys and girls could drink Ribena in comfort. So instead how about we picnic in Green Park in the centre of town, and then all head down to Brixton when the time comes? I suggest Green Park because Green Park Tube is only 5 stops on the Victoria Line to Brixton. Does that sound good? Someone else can take the reigns now... love Asm.x ================================ "He's strictly a pain in the ass, but he certainly has a good vocabulary" - Holden Caulfield "He's not the Messiah, he's a very naughty boy" - Mary Cohen _________________________________________________________________ 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: London Pre-gig Picnic? Anyone?
by Dimitra Daisy 28 Mar '02

28 Mar '02

Everywhere else that has a gig already has a picnic planned, apart from London... Is anyone going to take control? If no one does, me and Greg will have to do it, and that's almost a threat. Though maybe we'll just get everything right this time, he won't forget his phone at home and I won't get lost and arrive an hour late. But since I know nothing about London, I would be grateful if someone else did it. Though... if Sweetie can organise a picnic without posting... maybe I can do it. But anyway would someone who knows London better than me be kind enough as to suggest a place to have a picnic? Primrose Hill is lovely, but Greg says it's miles away, and maybe we should have it somewhere even slightly relevant or close? What do you think? picnics and big scary cities, Dimitra _________________________________________________________________ Join the worlds largest e-mail service with MSN Hotmail. http://www.hotmail.com +-------------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail sinister(a)missprint.org.

Sinister: The Magic Of A Kind Word
by robin stout 28 Mar '02

28 Mar '02

Following the example of Daddy Moore, I felt like having a go at transcribing the lyrics to The Magic Of A Kind Word. I put in my video of "Later..." to try a little lip-reading, but I couldn't keep up, and I found myself wondering why Struan had gone for the "short angry italian" look. Then I realised I'd recorded over it with Raging Bull and Struan was, in fact, short angry little Joe Pesci. So I gave up and watched Pebble Mill instead. Weel, here's my attempt, anyway. It's only based on my fuzzy copy of the Peel session, so it might not be too accurate, and it's probably a better reflection of me than whoever sang it. The second verse is mostly made up. At least the exclamation marks are right... The Magic Of A Kind Word ======================== When I think of all the sorrow It is hard to take a breath People fighting one another And I feel theres nothing left When I feel theres nothing left... Hey! Cut me loose, now Im feeling fine, yeah Im feeling fine! Shake worldly blues, now Im feeling fine, yeah Im feeling fine! Were just like traffic in a big town. Youd better stop youd better slow down! And the man I know is sleeping (no hes gone) Till those northern spirits send All the magic of a kind word (of afar (?)) You will always be a friend We take comfort in them... Hey! Cut me loose, now Im feeling fine, yeah Im feeling fine! Shake worldly blues, now Im feeling fine, yeah Im feeling fine! And theres enough to share, to go round Youd better stop youd better slow down instrumental (laa la la la, wooo! Etc..) And you never see your brother (hell cut work) Youll make him smile so see him someday (walk and wait) If were happier tomorrow (hope well try) Well be living for today Well be living for today ============================ Hmm, northern spirits? I think I might have been drinking too much of the old northern spirits when I heard that one. I had a dream last night I was an animal hypnosist and I put to sleep a growling schnauzer. Oh if only dreams came true. I wouldn't need a tetanus jab for a start. bye! Robin x ps: if you have any corrections for the above lyrics, if you have the video version for instance, just send them to me and i'll change it. ta _________________________________________________________________ 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: i have to post right now or i'll bust
by Bron 28 Mar '02

28 Mar '02

my hair isn't long enough to pull back in a ponytail yet, so my red bandana will do. it's warmer today but it's just chilly enough for me to wrap my body up in knit everything knit knot knit the room was getting too stuffy for me to bleed outside my body so i unfolded my ground- level lawn chair out on the balcony and sat there watching cars and vans and trucks loudly stop and go at the intersection i live at. the swirl of aiplanes in the air kept the sky gray and forgetful. yearning for alcohol, i'll just suffice with coffee chalked full of caffiene feed me yes! yes! get the high!! yes! oh god the buzz fuckin a get me a fuckin life worth breathin about... i let tori amos's "boys for pele" drag through my eardrums. i couldn't stand it anymore, i'm sittin here in knitted knots and a dress and some skin tight tourquoise pants just waiting for someone to sprinkle fairy dust on me to take me to Never Never Land cuz i'm sure as i could ever be i've got happy thoughts to get me there, happy thoughts to steal the last train to clocksville by god. what? what am i talking about? i wish you'd tell me, or diagnose me, or actually please don't do that, i don't have the moula to get you paid for all that extensive research and yellow days spent sitting in a library soaking up the florescent rays from the light reflecting off the book that said it'd take you somewhere pretty. i wish i could sit down with allen ginsberg and kiss his hand. i'd feed him some crispy rubber pancakes and let him write for me, i'd help support whatever habit he would sport, and then i'd run away and leave him in my apartment cuz i think i could be a bitch like that right now. the sweetest bitch in the world. today has to end sometime. does midnight sound good? ---your mountain mama sweetheart X ***Sometimes you get shown the light in the strangest of places if you look at it right*** ---Jerry. http://www.care2.com - Get your Free e-mail account that helps save Wildlife! +-------------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail sinister(a)missprint.org.
