Sinister: to justify or just defy?
by breams 13 Jun '02

13 Jun '02

Greetings again dear friends... I know it's not been long since I posted, and I promise that I wouldn't come out of my little corner unless it was absolutely, positively necessary to do so. However, I now find myself bounding out of the wilderness with purpose. That purpose is to draw everyone's attention (well the attention of those intending to attend) to a change in the timing of the Glasgow Lipnic on Saturday. I previously gave the time as 2pm at Kelvinbridge Station, however, at the time I was not aware that England would be playing Denmark in the 2nd round of the World Cup. As a result of this fixture becoming apparent to me, I have changed tack and will now be at Kelvinbridge station at 3pm or just after. So, to reiterate for all of you listee attendees, be at Kelvinbridge Station for 3pm on Saturday 15th June. As for London Bowling Shenanigans, these are still being held on the 22nd June. Bowling will take place at Rowans Leisure Centre in Finsbury Park at 2pm on 22nd June. If anyone and everyone that thinks they will be attending could please email me asap, I will confirm numbers and make some bookings. I'm not going to try and justify this post with any form of witty banter, as I think my last attempt at a picnic report was something of a dismal failure. So I shall just leave you with another reiteration of times, this time for London. Rowans Leisure Centre 10 Stroud Green Road London N4 2DF (Opposite Finsbury Park Tube and Rail Stations) 2pm on Saturday 22nd June (ie, the day before I fly back to Australia). Be there or be cubist!

Sinister: love songs for jerk faces
by bus stoppers 13 Jun '02

13 Jun '02

dear sinister, today as i was walking around campus, i looked down and saw a poor roly-poly on it's back. legs flailing all about. near death. so i stopped and picked him and up and put the poor bugger in the near-by planter. he got scared and froze up, but i think that he was still okay with still being alive. anyway, i was listening to volume 2 of the magnetic fields 69 love songs and had a brilliant idea. i'm going to make a mix tape with one brilliantly written s.merritt for every boy that has ever kissed me or broken me. speaking of cheese and sap... love, sara p.s...sorry, i'm at school and class was cancelled. i ' m b o-o - o r e d .. . ... . . ===== all the people'd stare as if we were both quite insane someday my name and his are going to be the same __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?

Sinister: miss idleberry's ever-enlarging above-neck appendage, other things.
by michael grant 13 Jun '02

13 Jun '02

i dont want to give miss idleberry a big head by being written about for two posts in a row, but i cant help it. and if it helps, i thought of it before mister richard cottyn, i promise. i did. (and also for miss idles, congrats on passing your theory test). anyway, miss idleberry's post was damn near perfect. she said... "Do you suppose that the middle aged men, in middle management, who prepare endless streams of reports for their collegues to read, that seem to be about the most mindless o things, ever really wanted to be there?" and "What happens to your dreams? And if your dreams die, what replaces them? And how do people cope with dead dreams?" when do people lose that desire to do what they want, and accept that they'll be stuck in an office for the rest of their lives? ive still got it. i hope. i might be being naive, but i still have the belief that i'll do what i want in the end. not that i have any idea what that is at the moment, but that's irrelevant. i never understood the people at school who plan to be lawyers, or accountants, or engineers. is that really their passion? can they get excited about, and by, these things? i can't imagine it. that's probably just me though, unable to see why anyone would want to be different from the way i am. (which is a good point. i was looking in the mirror yesterday wondering why i dont get more sex, because i am very pretty. i do often wonder if my extreme love for myself is harmful. probably.) and the rest of idle's post was great too. my sister and i used to sneak into the big cupboard in the kitchen when our mum wasnt there and eat ice magic straight out of the bottle. and if that wasnt there, we'd have raspberry ice-cream sauce. we were a mischievous bunch. mister jay said.... "Nobody in Belle and Sebastian ever seems to mention the heat, do they?" well, i'm going to guess that's because b&s are from scotland. being there myself, and having witnessed it raining heavily in the middle of june (i.e. today), i can safely say it's not very hot. ever. mister ken chu is a flippin' genius..... >Aye, no bother boss. I've now added a few 10 second sound clip fillers to >the >album - it's now 2 minutes longer than before!!! Aren't I clever? It's got nothing >to do with trying to give a background on what the songs were written for >at all. this week i have mostly been listening to: maher shalal hash baz - from a summer to another summer ballboy - all the records on the radio are shite radiohead - live bootleg royal tenenbaums soundtrack the moldy peaches. cant think of much else to say. i should be making mister breams pubnic on saturday, so hopefully see some of you there. michael.xx "get out of your apartment. meet a member of the opposite sex. stop the excessive shopping and masturbation. quit your job. start a fight. prove your alive. if you don't claim your humanity you will become a statistic." - tyler durden. _________________________________________________________________ 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: Suck This Tit
by Richard Cottyn 12 Jun '02

12 Jun '02

Heylo there... Apologies for the subject line...couldn't resist... Idleberry's last post was fantastic-I was surprised to find myself almost in tears by the end of it...must be because of all the childhood stuff...it was a great post though so thanks idles, it made my day :) I'm still not sure what I make of Storytelling, though what I do know is that 'Big John Shaft' is pretty damn good. Certainly one of the best songs they've ever done. I dare you to defy me. In fact, listen to it now. Go on, you simply have to agree...I take it it's in your CD player, I mean what else would be?! On second thoughts, just wait til you've finished reading my post, and then press the play button and skip right down to the end, track 18, and you will, you WILL agree that it is bloody brilliant! Is it just me or is every woman who goes into 'Boots' good looking? It's true-look carefully next time you go in. I haven't noticed but maybe there's like a security guard at one of the front entrances letting in ONLY good looking women-I shall keep my eyes peeled for him next time. Oh and finally found Morrissey's 'Kill Uncle' to complete my Moz collection :) This week I recommend: Playing late night tetris Yahoo pool Midnight football Polishing The World Cup (of course) Winning the Champions League with Brighton on Champ Manager (How sad!) Finding ways to avoid revision (ie all of the above) This week I do not recommend: Revision Alarm clocks Spending too much money Revision Having a lack of pens Revision And if you have five seconds to spare...then go and listen to a bit of 'Big John Shaft'. :) Richard X +-------------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail sinister(a)missprint.org.

Sinister: the sunrise is something to see
by bus stoppers 12 Jun '02

12 Jun '02

good afternoon sinister! though i might at times seem like a psychopath (sp?), i think that i have been doing a relatively good job of making sure things are going better. ruts are bad. moving on is good. getting through the day is even better. maybe productivity and exercising my brain have something to do with this whole new chapter, but i think that this school thing might work out okay. i was very reluctant and stubborn at first, but accomplishing something beyond the mundane tasks of 'the coffee job' seems to be working as a sort of pick me up. distraction, maybe? plus, now that my day starts so damn early, i get to see the world pre-sun, sunny, and post-sun. and that most definately is refreshing and different in itself. you know that whole early morning fog-overcast thing? i think i like it. and on to other happy news, i think that i get to meet my second sinister friend this weekend. my sinister valentine will be in california and he is going to take me out for sushi. should be fun as it is my first "high-school date" which is what he promised me! :) and i must confess something else. i have become obsessed with neon genesis evangelion. who'd have thunk. anime. what am i going to do with yet another obsession? it's almost sad. but what else is there in life if you don't get to get excited about stuff that makes you happy or makes you cry or makes you sing along, right? middle age is also rearing it's ugly head. well, still somewhat down the road, but 22 is less than a month away, which means 30 and 40 are less than 20 years away. when compared to infinity or eternity, it's pretty fucking close, right? okay. so i'm being over-dramatic. but birthdays are a happy thing. it's a special day to celebrate the eventful moment you entered this crazy world from out of your very own mommy!! well that's enough out of the town-looney. hugs and half smiles and yawns, sara ===== all the people'd stare as if we were both quite insane someday my name and his are going to be the same __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?

Sinister: please be on the look out...
by Margaret Chapman 12 Jun '02

12 Jun '02

hi i live in Durham, NC and on June 4th some one broke into our beloved indy music store, Radio Free Records, and stole about 85% of the stock, including 4000+ cds not in their cases. Unfortunately, this was a small, young business and did not have any insurance. It also means that we don't have any place to buy good music right now. We think someone came from out of town, and is maybe trying to get rid of this stuff on the street. It's a long shot, but if you live in a big city and you see a lot of independent label cds in green paper sleeves at a flea market or on the street, let us know. contact info and more about the break-in can be found at http://www.sixtythree.org/radiofree/ if you live near by, check out the website for information on upcoming benefit shows, yard sales, auctions, paypal donations, etc. m +-------------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail sinister(a)missprint.org.

Sinister: Reader, I married him
by Liz Daplyn 12 Jun '02

12 Jun '02

Actually, I didn't. But I moved to London! All the cool kids are *doing it* these days, you know. Apart from the ones who are leaving the country. Hopefully Mr Stefano will be back sharpish, as will Mr Jeremy (not the Basil Brush wrangler, but the effete Australian) after finding out that you really never can go home again. Of course, Mr BApps won't be back for quite some time after Fruitloop devours him alive (as is traditional, I believe) after the wedding ceremony, and certainly not in the same format. As it were. Still, no doubt he'll still be keen to show off his biro deep-throating skeelz, as developed and demonstrated the other night in Highgate. Crikey. Before all that happens, however, there was mention of Sinister bowling on the 22nd, and I propose that this should take place in Finsbury Park, because I'm lazy and would prefer to only stagger 500 yards or so back to my lovely new house in the gory aftermath that inevitably follows these twee encounters, taking as many of you with me as can stand it. Meanwhile, I shall attempt to find a job worthy of me*, and maybe do some baking. On reflection, maybe I should have taken up Madeleine's Brighton offer of marriage. After all, making cake on demand is not too high a price to pay for the luxury of being a kept woman in the East Midlands. Re-watching a video of B&S on Joolz Holland merely in order to crease up sniggering at the "which cat just pissed on my crisps?" look on the face of Mr Holland, it was interesting to see Isobel smirking towards the end of 'I'm Waking Up To Us' in a kind of pre-post-dumping kind of way. That is, I conjecture that she was thinking about the pain she would cause all you boys out there on her departure from the bosom of the band that had nurtured her asthmatic stylings for so long. Jesus wept, is it that time already? Many felicitations, Liz :x * that is, one requiring the prodigious talents of a bear of very little brain --- So then, farewell. Your arse Was far too special for them Anyway. Or so your mother said. --- _________________________________________________________________ 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: Reindeer section
by Christopher Devaney 12 Jun '02

12 Jun '02

Mick and Richard are fully paid up members of the section, appearing on their first album 'Y'all get scared now, ya hear!' last summer, and on their forthcoming album 'Son of evil reindeer'. I presume that's Richard drumming on the new single 'You are my joy'. Can't hear any trumpet but Mick may well appear on it in some other form. Gary Lightbody from Snow Patrol is the genius behind the supergroup, that man must sweat good songs, he's written so many. The section also feature members of Alfie, Astrid, Vaselines, Mogwai,Eva, Mull Historical Society, and many more. __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?

Sinister: Construedle.
by Ruth Allan 12 Jun '02

12 Jun '02

yo sinister, my boyfriend just said 'I bet you are posting to sinister about how bored you are with requests for people to mail you' Well at least I'm not talking about going to the bathroom which would be marginally more entertaining. I do like the new album surprisingly but hated the film with a loathing that was quite out of character even to myself. I am pleased Mr Jason Cochrane of Canadia has come out of his shell. I think he is actually a fine figure of a man about the page: misconstrued not misog--istic. And books can be superb. I just dont find comedy that funny very often. Proving a. that I am serious b. that I am seriously dull c. not getting it or preferably too clever. this is obviously no help. Does anyone know anything about the reindeer section? Does it feature members of b and s as rumoured? x _________________________________________________________________ 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.
