Sinister: Another baby to the family
by Dorie Pacheco 17 Apr '02

17 Apr '02

Hello, Yep, first post, been out of the nursery a while but slightly intimidated to write, not sure what to say, I'm not the poetic type, wish I was though! I was introduced to B&S fairly recently but once I heard their music I was completely enthralled. I am going to the show in Montreal instead of the Toronto show and since I live pretty much half way between both (a little limestone town called Kingston) it was a matter of which town I like best...you can't beat the french...amour, amour...yeah, I'm Canadian eh! Anybody else have Montreal tickets??? I have an idea where the show is but not sure which way to take...any suggestions...plus I'm driving, so if you live anywhere between K-town and Montreal I can pick you up, only room for one though, already have 3 others in my car...red rocket is her name. Cheesy part...I have really enjoyed reading the posts. It is great to hear about places (specifically in the UK) that I dream about visiting sometime, know I will, maybe next summer... That's all for now!

Sinister: Word Up-Everybody Sing...*
by Vilkas D'Angelo-Horvath 17 Apr '02

17 Apr '02

Hello Sinister Kids. MAGAZINE Careless Talk Costs Lives: I liked the issue I read. But it was definitely pretentious. Some nice articles, some nice new information. Reading it was similar to talking to the snotty guy you know who you would enjoy talking about records with, but he's waaaay to cool for you and his records are carefully picked to remain cool. But I still liked it, but I like Q. Compared to the Rolling Stone magazine and Spin so readily available here; it whups ass. ROCK Related to this, my stance on music is: I don't like things that suck. I do like things that rock. And somethimes I like things that suck. STEAMED HAMS Ok. I have a Philadelphia ticket to sell for face value. Y'know now that there's a DC show and all. And that the week I'm up with my family for my cousins wedding, there's the NY show which will be a nice excuse to get the fuck off Long Island. I'm not even staying with them the whole time; my best friends live around and visits will occur. But Still. Don't get me wrong, I love all my cousins and aunts and uncles and stuff; but they're right wing, conservative, in the Navy, Pro-Life, Roman Catholic and I am a far left wing secular Buddhist. I'm not very religious, but when put into a situation where Jesus is stalking me at every turn; well that's a little odd having to actively pick a side. Trying to explain a way of living that's not actually a religion...whoa. They were surprised to know I wasn't even Christian. There are some times when I bite my tongue cos to start something wouldn't be a good idea and wouldn't change anyone's ideas about anything. I don't want to try to change their ideas; I just want mutual respect. Riiight. So anybody want my Philadelphia ticket? DC PIC-A-NIC There will be a DC picnic. I think me and Jenny Payne are the mummies. More info to come. We've got some ideas but suggestions are very very welcomed. ROCK Can I say how much I am in love with Ballboy's record/compilation "Club Anthems"? They're FAB. And I'm not from Scotland either. Favourite song: "Donald in the Bushes With a Bag of Glue", "I've Got Pictures of You in Your Underwear" and "One Sailor Was Waving". For the names of the first two alone. It's nice cos it simple but not afraid to fully embrace Phil Spector's Wall Of Sound. It's Unrest versus Arab Strap. ROCK! FUGAZI, PINE TREES, RAH-BRAS, A LAKE, AND 34 DEGREES FARENHEIT Fugazi played here a few weeks ago. I LOVE Fugazi and have since age 14. However, due to bastard cars, broke-assedness, and being at jobs instead of venues; I've only managed to see them play out two and a half times before. And I'm 27 now. They played at the local posh university that funnily enough has the FABulous radio station. The actual venue was at an outdoor amphitheatre surrounded by pine trees, leafy trees, and a lake. It was 34 degrees farenheit out i.e. cold as fuck. The local kids, the Rah-Bras opened. They rocked. I've seen them a bunch and this was the best sound ever. All their songs sounded so good and so clear yet still ferocious and Wrarrrrr. Same with Fugazi, I think the dirt of the amphitheatre and the pine trees and shit made fabulous sound conducters. Fugazi played two of my fave songs. Merchandise and Reclamation. Reclamation has this beginning gittar bit that sounds like the noises Beavis and Butthead make to sound like guitars. Or maybe like an actual waterfall. Sounds like "Beirnn neer neer neer neer neer neer". And Merchandise was great cos it rocks, is righteous, and makes me remember hearing punk rock for the first time and how exciting and dynamic this sound was. Telling you lot about this, I assume there more than one crossover listeners cos how dull would it be to listen to only one kind/speed of music. La la luv ya, Vilkas *As always, a contest if you know who sang the subject line. It's an easy one. Prize = Mix Tape. _________________________________________________________________ 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: great sebadoh disaster
by Ian Watson 17 Apr '02

17 Apr '02

Another review of Brixton. Interesting not for what it has to say but how it chooses to say it. The writer has decided to write a fictionalised account of two people going to see the gig (possibly himself and a friend). I suspect he or she may be taking the piss, but there are some funny moments. http://212.87.85.170/new/story.asp?id=1156 ---------- >From: minster(a)fsmail.net >To: sinister(a)missprint.org >Subject: Sinister: Listy foe-pa >Date: Wed, Apr 17, 2002, 3:15 pm > >I know I shouldn't do this but I realy can't help myself >it isn't very often that I get moved to a full-stop >giggle at the expense of myself and some that are quite like me. >Sometimes the truth is funnier than friction! >oh just have a look you'll see what I mean! >http://www.theonion.com/onion3813/record-store_clerks.html > > > > >+-------------------------------------------------------------------------+ > +---+ Brought to you by the Sinister mailing list +---+ > To send to the list mail sinister(a)missprint.org.

I know I shouldn't do this but I realy can't help myself it isn't very often that I get moved to a full-stop giggle at the expense of myself and some that are quite like me.

Sinister: ooh look, there goes concorde again
by Dirty Vicar 16 Apr '02

16 Apr '02

hello everyone, the good woman and I are off to All Tomorrow's Parties very soon now. We are going to have a good time all of the time. We're also heading over to Brighton on Monday. does anyone know if there is any fun to be had there? there's a good likelihood we'll just charge around pretending we have scooters and shouting "We Are The Mods" at random passers-by. In a private mail a Sini-subber once commented that I seem to be always buying compilation albums. he'll be happy to hear that I've done it again, because I was so enraptured by the film "24 Hours Party People" that I bought myself the soundrack album. You have scene this film, yes, the one with Steve Coogan playing Factory supremo Tony Wilson, and chortled along with the wacky hi-jinks the label gets up to? Well, you should, if you like music, particularly music from Manchester. has any city produced so many great bands, even if they did fumble the ball when Wasis came on the scene? Fernando scoffed at Lotus Notes and said how happy he would be to be working for Microsoft. Beware, Fernando. Seductive the Dark Side is. that's it, then. bless, DV +-------------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail sinister(a)missprint.org.

Sinister: the volcano rap
by Dean Gillon 16 Apr '02

16 Apr '02

Hello everyone, I'm Dean and I'm new. Well, I'm not really but my lack of computer knowledge means that I am (don't ask). Wasn't like that in my day when everything was made of wood and we respected our elders for cramming us up chimneys. Aaahh (nostalgic sigh.) Just writing to say hi and that I'm quite jealous of anyone going to any gigs recently or coming up. Skint until the 26th - grrr. Does anybody know if that line about "he reminded you of johnny - before he went electronic" is about the mighty johnny marr? I've always suspected but was never sure. and oh yes, if anyone has any tips for a best man's speech, I'd be grateful too. Mates wedding next week and I'm crap at stuff like that. I suppose I'll just get pissed and play it by ear. Oh well, I'll post something a bit more sensible when I've done anything worth writing about. See ya.

Sinister: Hello for the First Time
by Ramesh Srivastava 16 Apr '02

16 Apr '02

Hello all, I've just been given permission to post, and am thrilled to do so after watching Velvet Goldmine, which I find to be quite indulgent, yet enjoyable. I wanted to make an initial post that was thoughtful and lovely, but all I can think about is my upcoming trip. Tomorrow, I am off for Dublin, and then to Edinburgh and Glasgow. Let me take this opportunity to blatently invite anybody who would like to meet up with me (I'm visiting universities), and show what it's like beyond the youth hostel scene. I've already corresponded with a few lovely people. I am anticipating a rather long plane trip, but, ah, I have the assigned task of reading Portrait of Lady, by Henry James, so I should be well occupied. Chances are, I've emailed many of you already about my trip, but such is life. I'm fairly chuffed, as I am planning to start a book club with a few friends from school. MY idea for the initial book is Kafka's The Trial. Any other suggestions? Also, suggestions of places to visit in the cities mentioned would be lovely. last I was in Glasgow, I apparently turned the wrong way out of the youth hostel, and ended up in some rather drawl bar strip by a highway. It seems that I missed a few things. Hmmmmm... So, I really am not so myopic, or self-serving, I'm just incredibly excited. Anybody thinking of going to University at University of Glasgow next year? Just curious. Does anyone have any opinions on studying Scottish Literature vs English LIterature? I've been weighing the pros and cons, and am a bit confused. Although, maybe their will be educational mobility, and I can do a bit of both. So, anyone who would like to, email me, and we might meet up. Thanks, Ramesh (Remy-A nickname of sorts) _________________________________________________________________ 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: Perhaps it's the "joys of Spring?"
by Jamie Harrison 16 Apr '02

16 Apr '02

Woohoo! :-o Hi to all! I am doing a quick post to share something. I am feeling really upbeat for some reason. I am enjoying reading these posts as well. I have been feeling rather down for a while really, since before Christmas and for no one reason in particular. I am usually on my own for long periods of time and it was really starting to get to me. I've never been close to anyone in particular and any people I have been good friends with have moved away or we've just lost touch. I've decided to try and snap out of it, pull my socks up and get on with life and when I have been stuck in at night, I've been reading these posts and often they've raised my spirits. I know that we shouldn't discuss the list itself, but I've also been looking through the archives as well and this has kept me entertained. I have been listening to B & S a lot too and it has occupied my time. I am waiting to hear about a new job, so that will give me the opportunity to meet some new people. I am on a reserve list until August, so hopefully something will pop up before then. In May I am going to see Le Tigre at the Social in Nottingham. I am not sure what to expect from them, although I like the Social in any case. I have Feminist Sweepstakes, the latest album, and enjoy it the further in to the album it goes. I am also getting a recordable mini disc so that I can lose myself on the trains going into work! It's nothing amazing, but these material goods and reading your posts does make a difference, so I just wanted to genuinely thank everyone for their contribution! All I need now, is enough money to move out of my parents into my own place and I'll be sorted!!!
