Sinister: These things I say might seem to offend, but not half as much as I'd like to intend...
by breams 22 May '02

22 May '02

Hello sinister, I have been sitting here for almost 10 minutes attempting to write a reasonable introduction to this shambles and failing with excellence. I'm not sure that this direct admission of failure works any better than the failures themselves, but at least it contains two things worth noting 1) this post will be shambolic, and 2) I am an excellent failure. I don't think there was anything particularly wondrous that was burning a hole in my outbox, but I guess I just wanted to chip away at the coating of lurkerdom that has enveloped me. Even though I know that one of the rules clearly states that you shouldn't email something unless you yourself would like to receive it (it's got a commandment vibe to it doesn't it?), I can't help but feel that this post is going to be dispatched whether I like it or not. It's awfully therapeutic, no? I guess I could comment on stuff and things, that's always a good place to start. Right'o. Lambchop at Albert Hall a fortnight ago was something fantabulous. I would even go as far as to say that it was the best gig/concert/thing that I have ever seen (in my entire life, etc). I'm sure there a plenty of people who would disagree, but at the end of the day, I have never been that euphoric during and after a gig. They played as a 13 piece band, and managed to pull off faultless segues from subdued moments of serenity to stupendous sections of what can only be called "whigging out". I guess I'm inherently biased because I love Kurt Wagner's songwriting, but he really did show his brilliance that evening as a band leader and performer in his own right. I think all of the songs I would possibly have requested or hoped for were played, and the one that has always made me go all giddy and glaze over "Up With People" was spectacular. I suppose, what I was trying to say from the beginning was that this was my perfect gig (using a similar definition for "perfect" that David did in referring to albums a fortnight ago) in that I went giddy with excitement as soon as they started playing and remained on that level until well after they had finished and packed up. Infact I think I only glanced at my watch once, and that was late in the set when I began praying that they would say bollocks to the curfew and keep playing for another 10 hours. I honestly could've listened until dawn. I'm not competent enough to write a proper review of it, so my calamitous expression of glee will have to suffice. I'm sure I had something else to say before I started that ramble about the gig, but it got lost somewhere in the enthusiasm. Perhaps I can sum up everything in a paragraph. Belated hugs, hello's and how-are-you's to all the people from the Greenwich picnic, Cat Power gig, various footballing outings, Primrose Hill picnic, escapades at the Bappsy Trotwood, various outings in Camden and the like, and even as far back as ATP. To all the lovely Londoners that have been so very welcoming and friendly over the last couple of months I thank you especially. Finally, I just want to say hello and give a large hug to Stefano, with whom a growing number of splendarous days & nights are being had. Oh yeah, there's always one tacked on the end isn't there...to Mr B Apps: I'm missing you already!! Okiedoke, that's about enough from me at the moment. Though there is one more thing. Has anyone else noticed that posting to sinister is much like horse riding. Once you've fallen into lurkerdom, the longer you wait to get back into action, the harder it is to do so. I guess I just stated the obvious, but...oh well. I'll see some of you this weekend in Brighton, others of you elsewhere in the near future, some of you I'll perhaps unknowingly pass in the street and a large number of you I shall perhaps never meet at all. Until then. Love Jeremy ps. one of these days I'll learn to write something that is both tangible and readable. But baby until then... -------------------------------- http://www.breams.co.uk Home of all things breamsy +-------------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail sinister(a)missprint.org.

Sinister: holly golightly: 'where's the cat?'
by lindsey baker 22 May '02

22 May '02

hello sinister. i am posting again. rather soon. hmm. *** what happens when you find your life's work -- your real life's work, that is -- has been something completely futile? pointless? silly, even? if i were the emo lindsey, i would cry about it. if i were the writer lindsey, i would write about it. if i were the depressed lindsey, i would cry and write about it. and i suppose at this moment -- or at any given moment on any given day -- i am one or all of the above, and so i am writing. and trying not to cry, because then my makeup would just get screwed up anyway. *** i think the most disturbing revelation i had tonight was that this job i've been plugging away at silently for a lifetime was one of which i wasn't really all that aware. people have mentioned things to me about it, of course, but i usually laugh in the most charming, twinkling little giggle i have in me and say i like it too much for my own good, but it surely isn't my entire existance. they give me a sidelong glance of doubt (and perhaps, i now realize, pity) and we move on in conversation to music or books or my latest project at the paper. but the realization of this duty and my dedication to it has crept up on me in the last week, and i am appalled at myself and the course of my life. everything i say and think and do all boils down to one inevitable hunger, an addiction, really, for and to this thing i think i am supposed to cling to as part of my inescapable role as a woman in the universe of man. why? why do i do it? *** i bought a cat this week. well, to be more accurate, matt and i drove to milford, nebraska. to a big country house. and went around back where i looked at nine kittens, all of them running around my feet, mewing, perfectly content with the state of things in their current location. and in a weird sort of brave new world-ian child begetting, i stooped down and picked up each kitten, inspecting and petting and testing. i think i thought one of them would run to me, and i would have an earth-shattering epiphany that THIS WAS TO BE MY CAT AND I ITS OWNER. you read about that. that didn't happen. so i picked the one that didn't look like any of the others. she looked like her mum, though, and she sat in my arms, purring a bit and looking up into my face. i looked at the perfectly symmetrical stripes on either side of her grey eyes, and told matt she was the one. her ears were big, and i thought the better to hear music with. the little girl at the house tried desparately to get me to take another. 'but this one is nice!' she pleaded in her little voice. and i smiled, and complimented the pink basket on her bicycle, and said i thought i could take good care of the one i wanted. we agreed, then, that my cat was really lovely, and she put the baby in a box for me to take home. so. i took sandwich to the vet shortly after showing her off at the daily nebraskan. the nurses at the clinic all loved my little bundle of joy. and one of them dropped the big bomb. 'i'm going to give you back to mom, now,' she told the squirming sandwich, who didn't actually mind all of the glorious attention she was receiving re: her cuteness. but there it was. mom. i'm a mom. before i've even completed the life's work, i am a mom, now, and have a mouth to feed. a body to hold when she cries. another little heart beating against my own when i place her on my chest, and watch her face as she rises and falls with the movement of my breath. *** i told someone that i have begun the spinster lifestyle, living alone with a cat. i told someone she was better than a boyfriend. funny. funny that she has to stay at matt's until i move in. funny that i can't have her with me on this night. for this cosmic acceptance of my destiny. for this...well. for the night that i realized i am forever and hopelessly gone on everything, especially any and all members of the male race. in what might be a subconscious last attempt to grasp love in any tangible form, my child is somewhere else, with other people, being loved by them and not by me. and loving them. not me. just like the missing recipients of my humble work. oh. no. oh. no. i. lindsey baker. am addicted to boys and having them. i have spent my life. for them. oh god. oh god. xxx lou _________________________________________________________________ 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: sleep..i need..sleep...
by Zoe Charaktinou 22 May '02

22 May '02

My brain is oficially fried...i have been reading almost non stop since 10 am this morning and now I am going to bed. I have more reading to do but time is running out...on Friday 24/5 at 12 am a 7000 word document should be resting in the school registry for someone to correct and i will have finished my BA career..i'll hopefully be a bahons in September. Then off for a ma so I end up being a bama... yes..the brain is as big as a pea. my little piece of info is this: TRILLIAN TRILLIAN, dear folks, is a chat programme that allows you to have all your chats in one place...so you can have MSN, YAHOO, AOL, ICQ and IRC chat connections and contacts in one nice and tidy place instead of writing millions and billions of user names and passwords. It's this nice programme, also, that allowed me to finally manage and return to #sinister.. up to now i thought that IRC had personal issues with me. if interested anyway go to www.download.com and search for trillian. it rocks... also i got a new cursor.it's HELLO KITTY and looks cool! I have a hairslide with KITTY. she was a favourite character when at the tender age of 3..now that my brain is smaller than a 3-year-old's the KITTY thing has returned pour moi... And, as the lovely Rachel said, on Saturday it's EUROVISION time.. I will have finished everything, I will have prepared a new cheesecake with strawberries on top('cos i have already eaten the one i made on sunday...), the neighbours will be here and the fun will commence! and I make a mean cheesecake! i'm dying to see the Greek entry. my friends from home tell me it's HORRID! it says something about internet passwords and the guy who sings it used to be famous in the 80s-in Greece ONLY- and he always sang AWFUL songs. The sheer embarassment...yak..last year we were 3rd but..erm..i doubt that this year we will even qualify for next year...anyway, i can't wait.it's a ritchual(something tells me i have mispelled this...), ya know? oh, i'm so tired i can't go to sleep...why oh why did i not do anything over the weekend? *yawn* i'm off... kiss-kiss.. z. ------------------------------------------------------------------ " Passivity in life, in politics, is problematic: it means acquiescing to a status quo that damages people along class, gender, racial, sexual and other lines."

None
by James Danson-Hatcher 22 May '02

22 May '02

Hmmmm, I've been so hard working lately, you'd all be so proud I'm sure. Hmmmm, I'm so excited, I'm moving to London at some point next month. Hmmmmm, it's late and I'm drunk with tiredness. This very early part of May the 21st gave rise to the thought "how do you go supermarket shopping on the internet?". I typed in www.asda.com, cranked up the music and clicked on the 'login' box, this seemed a good place to start my trip, but my dreams of trollyskating though the amazingly quiet 'virtual' aisles with The Relationships in place of the usual supermarket music have been dashed to a thousand shreds, they asked me for my postcode and it was 'outside the delivery area'. For a moment, I imagined the thousand single mums in their too-tight jeans slap their change-filled back pockets at me in rather a "na na na nana, we got in to Asda.com and you have to settle for Sainsburys" kind of way. I'm not that worried about it actually, I worked at the Asda distribution cenre a few weeks ago and I KNOW what happens to that "freshly" baked stuff before it gets to the shelves, ho ho ho. and what with working so much lately (and becoming somthing of a social outcast in the process) I have been thinking about the kind of loony people who do jobs like this even when they're not needing money like mad like me now or something in that sort of direction anyway. Perhaps they're in permanant meditation? Yeah, so, not getting out, maybe it's not so bad? if you set your mind to it. Like if your a Monk, high in your monestery, with nothing but small islands dotting over the hazy warm sea below and surrounding you. With a daily routine and definate lifeplan cos the walls and the regular chiming of a bell keep you from dreaming of the outside world. Workplace, maybe tempory is not the way, maybe you have to learn to love the "day in, day out". Learn to love the simplicity and noticing and knowing little things others don't ever notice about the place. Lifelong love of your special one. These old people!, they met as children. They married at ages' 18 and 21 and they're still together at 80 something. Now, thats just too easy! lucky them!, or is it that marrage vow thats kept them together? or are they of a simpler time, that the Monk in his monestery and the man in his 27th year of the same job also live in, are they the lucky ones or are we? I'm not questioning freedom, just where we need it and where our walls do us good. Emptiness is romanticised Simplicity is chic. Ok time for bed, even the See-hear programs are coming to an end now and my thoughts about needing glasses to see properly are being magnified by the inabilty to focus on words propery now, gah! I'm so tired. ........you're a STAR etc...

Sinister: Sinister Schemes Ignite... INFERNO
by Dirty Vicar 21 May '02

21 May '02

hello readers, I've been a bit remiss in my mailing to the list of fun, but please be assured you are always the subject of my thoughts and your mails always receive a close perusal. I went to see that Star Wars film. I was a bit disappointed by it. I thought there wasn't enough Jar Jar in it. everytime he was on screen I got all excited that he was going to do something funny, and then they just cut to some scene of Anakin sulking. But I did like all the stuff with Chancellor Palpatine. I've decided that Ian McDermid is my favourite actor in the worlde, and I want him to play me in the story of my life. I notice from the ever popular IMDB that he played a vicar in something he was in once, so he'd be perfect. I mean, you can just imagine him saying something like "Hate the Sin, love the Sinner", can't you? Onto music... I saw some top bands play live here in sunny Dublin recently. in the one weekend I saw both The Soundtrack Of Our Lives and The Hives. They were very good. I have decided that Swedish music is the best and I am going to change my name to Astrid and move to Sweden. I also liked Lambchop when I saw them last week, but I was less impressed by the cockfarmer who sat behind me and special friend Rener and kept going on about how they were "a huge ensemble" in a loud twunty voice. some people shouldn't be let out. And I am excited about Múm playing Dublin next Tuesday. If I had a FISJYERLAP t-shirt would I look sad if I wore it to the gig? and on to business. is anyone game for a Dublin Sinister meetup next Friday? that's the 31st of May. We have a Sinister American coming to visit so we should be friendly. I have nothing in particular in mind at this stage, but if people get back to me I'll try and uselessly organise something. beyond that I have no great wisdom to impart. Like many other countries we have had elections recently, and like many other countries scumbag parties increased their share of the vote. a certain comfort can be taken from the dismal performance of what passes for a far-Right here, at least. bless you all, DV +-------------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail sinister(a)missprint.org.

Sinister: beauty must die
by Jonathan Skinner 21 May '02

21 May '02

Dear All i hope this finds everyone in fine form. I am in suprisingly good form despite skool etc. At this point i just want it all to be over and i can gget on with the summer but i'll have to wait a couple of weeks for that to happen but regardless of that i am in fine form Thus wrote Trish Delish "i noticed that there's a new piece of writing up there, i'm guessing it's by stuart though could be stevie either? http://www.banchory.net/belleandsebastian/ also hazarding a guess, but it seems to be the cafe mentioned in a lot of sleeve notes, the one where the band did/didn't form, depending on whose version you listen to" The piece i think was written about Cork in the subtext as i am undergoing the withdrawel symptoms after the closure of my fabulous favourite eating emporium (hereafter know as COFFEE). Java Joes on cook street is "dead and gone and with o leary in the grave" (if you name the poet you get a prize i think) It has been a favourite place for me to go and while away a few hours in the summer or winter whilst at the same time chatting reading thinking or eating. The interior was dotted with tables that didn't match sofa's that looked like it could tell thousends of stories about things that had been done and said over (it would be scary if it really did talk though*we don't want to hurt you we just want to be your friend*) little booths where you could hide yourself away a bord with numerous amoutns of food choices on it- a ceiling that had silver balls hanging from it and a staff that you couldn't actully seperate from the clientelle (Except that often time they were the only ones actully in there ). It closed at easter and hasn't opened since-the shutters are down and the inside sparten and torn up- i hope a new cafe doesn't open up cos that would be sacreligeous in every sense of the word. It will never ever ever be replicated but will live in till i have enough money to start up a place that i would want to hang out in .Untill then it will just be tribes for me- a horrid place where they have minumum charges and skater kids hanging out and they (TUT) expect you buy things-they just don't know about running a bussiness. But on another point some on the list have started to question where they are going in life and why nothing good or really bad really happens to them. we all feel like that at various times in our lives and i do at the moment-no real direction but just being pushed along by the expectations of other people. DOing courses at school what we don't really want to do but feel we ought to just in case of the future. I hate it but we especially are bombarded with this "need to succeed" philosophy by our careers teacher who tells us (Albeit through gritted teeth) that we should get as much money as possible now and then enjoy it when we have sense enough to do it properly. I couldn't fathom why she is a guidence counselor. She evidently wants to encourage people to be miserible for 40 years until retirement before *enjoying* ill gotten gains-it isn't good advise to give to confused 18 year olds on the cusp of life and still (well a few of them anyway) holding some sort of idealism about life and what it can offer and what they can give back.That is todays lesson over i hope people are happy and plans for the summer are slowly coming to fruition peace+love+plague and pestilence to all jonathan +-------------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail sinister(a)missprint.org.

Sinister: this is the sinister express calling at brighton only
by R.Playforth＠sussex.ac.uk 21 May '02

21 May '02

ok, miss marvellous maddie has posted re. the london-brighton sinister express, so i guess it's incumbent on me to pick up where she leaves off ie. IN BRIGHTON. as she said i will be meeting the london train at 13:57, so anyone coming from outside the capital (provinces rule!) or otherwise not getting that train, either meet us there around 2pm or let me know what you're doing. my mobile number is 07944 074873 and you can email me here or at something.pretty(a)btinternet.com. the plan after that is to head to the beach (around 2.15 i suppose) and do traditional picnic things (if you fancy your chances on pebbles, feel free to bring a football, though frisbee might be more feasible). if it rains we will go to *the george* pub, which can be reached by going down to the bottom of trafalgar street - sharp left under the road as you come out of the train station. there will be scrabble i hope, although if it's windy probably not outside - i haven't quite worked this out yet. there will also be *EUROVISION* for anyone who wants to cram into my flat later - as Robin the Stout suggested to me this morning, we can have karaoke and/or a eurovision sweepstake! ok i think that's about it. do phone me if you get lost/scared/dazed/confused, otherwise i'll see you on saturday! luv archel xxx ps. this will be the last brighton picnic in my current flat, cos we went to see a new one this morning and are moving in on the day before my birthday! (my birthday is on 19th june, by the way, in case you want to send me gifts/housewarming stuff.) which reminds me... pps. send maddie expensive gifts cos she deserves them! ****************** Visit www.buzzwords.ndo.co.uk for the best new writing on the web.
