Sinister: When Banana Man hosts a soiree, does he call it a Bananarama?
by Miss Marianna Longmire 05 Aug '02

05 Aug '02

Oi Sinister! Outside! Now let's rhumble! Aside from the toxic fume outbreak at work and spending four hours in casualty, what has really been getting my mountain goat this week is the fact you all hate me. I know, I know, you all /pretend/ to enjoy my company at soirees and the like, but I'm simply forced to deduce that this is a conspiratorial façade, given that no one has sent me a crush vote. I dunno, you spend time relaying extraordinary adventures, witty conversations and intriguing observations and no one bothers to even TRY and get into your pants.* Pah. So just for that, you're getting an awfully random, babbling post from me. Revenge, mua ha ha. Take that! And, err, party. Sinister fun fact #82. Ken Chu is smutastic. Even in his sleep. Speaking of bad posts, Andrew Churchman posted about leaving Sinister. "I just wanted some of the new listees to know that this list wasn't always this boring." Indeed, there has been a lot of talk about the decline of Sinister recently. Dudes, if you think the list is boring, then erm, CONTRIBUTE and try and raise the standards.Or just fuck off quietly and read ILE. Warning, cliche: The list is what you make it. And as for discussing the intricacies of the songs, well it's been done. We've moved on. We may be a "legion of bedroom saddo devotees", but our obsessions aren't limited and fuck it, Belle and Sebastian can't be on our record players all the live long time. I WANT people to think, rant, tell stories and confess their sins. This, for me, is what makes Sinister so great. Of course, the occasional bitch-fest about Isobel or communal swooning over Stevie should always be encouraged. However, because I'm occasionally lovely and want to appease those who insist on each post containing at least some content, bite your teeth on this: B+S are playing with Ms Dynamite in Burnley, UK. Can you say, random but brilliant line-up? Sinister fun fact #83. Vanilla David tells the BEST animal sex stories, ever. He's also the only person I've heard convincingly argue the merits of Adelaide. During one of many drunken strolls through the streets of London at 1 in the morning, the young James Franco confessed he used to believe Madonna was in the original line up of Bananarama. "It made sense at the time", he claimed. I like this mix up. A lot. Firstly, because it very loosely foreshadows a Bis lyric by about 10 years, and secondly, because it's kind of like lyric mishearings, but relating to band members instead. And it reminded me of the time I thought Skeletor was simply a drag queen extra in the "Wannabe" film clip. Incidentally, for a good two years I swore the line in Bananarama's Love in the First Degree was "guilty as a cocoa bean" and was an obscure homage to Charlie and the Chocolate Factory. How exactly it was an homage I'm not entirely sure, but I stood by my mishearing and my random justification. Even after my brother told me to stop being silly and put me in the stocks at Elizabethan World. Miss Marianarama Longmire P.S. Reggie Whitecastle's back. Whoot! *And it seems this post isn't going to do much to persuade you otherwise, now is it? Sigh. I give up. +-------------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail sinister(a)missprint.org.

Sinister: Love is like lightning, it won't strike twice in the same place
by Reggie Whitecastle 05 Aug '02

05 Aug '02

Hello fellow Belle and Sebastian fans! It's been a super long time since I've posted--mostly due to the fact that I let my sister borrow my laptop for some BBQ invitations she was going to make on PrintShop, and then her youngest daughter dropped it in their garden pond! Oh dear, I can say that algae-infested water is not very good for a computer's motherboard. That baby was gone after that. Luckily, I had some coins to sell that I was not particularly fond of and now I have a new computer. Many apologies and thank yous to those of you who sent me private email after my last post. I guess I was at quite a low point after spending the Fourth alone and then finding out Denise is married. A lot has happened since then, let me tell you! That is not to say that things are getting any better. Thankfully, I have B&S to listen to whenever things are looking not-so-good. One of my lizards, Commando, died a few days ago. I've had him quite a while; I actually think everytime I wake up that he'll finally be dead. And he finally went. R.I.P. little guy! I hope you're looking for crickets up in heaven! Also, a few days ago, I went to Gunther Tooties for a late-night meal. Denise didn't seem to be working, for which I was thankful. I haven't seen her since I found out she was married, and her husband is in prison for a few years (I don't know what for--I have images of him hunting me down with various and sundry medieval torture devices! Eeep!). So, I ate, and right as I was leaving I heard her voice. She was in her regular clothes, not her uniform. I was surprised to see she is quite a classily-dressed woman. I expected her to be a jeans-and-teeshirt type of gal, but she was wearing a dress and nice shoes. As I left, she was leaving too, and she smiled and asked me what I'd been up to and where I'd been. I told her I'd been away on business. Wow, what a bad thing to say to someone when you're actually unemployed. She asked me for more details and I mumbled and hoped she'd change the subject. And then--she grabbed my arm! And told me she'd missed me. And grinned at me! And wow, did my heart ever start beating like crazy. I got in my car, and I smiled for the first time in a really long time. It's funny, just when life starts looking really shitty, how things can change. And it's also funny how they can go straight back to being shitty. Toodles! Reggie __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Yahoo!

Sinister: The ultimate B & S devotion quiz!!
by Nathan Reader 04 Aug '02

04 Aug '02

Hello there fellow Sinisterians. My name is Nathan and I am from Australia. This is my very first entry to the list, and I just hope to God(music) that I haven't broken one or more of the many rules there are for this website. Here goes anyway. For this entry I have written a little poem(one that doesn't rhyme) to test your B&S knowledge. Here's how it works: Each stanza(phrase) contains at least two or three words from a B&S song. I have not picked very hard songs so all of the songs should be familiar. It may be advisable to print this out and ponder over it in your spare time, or maybe when you should be doing other things such as h/w. So, there are ten stanzas and therefore ten songs that each stanza corresponds to. Have a go at guessing which songs lyrics are in each stanza. ENJOY! START OF POEM -------------------------------- Read this poem and listen to your crazy laugh. I am just trying to do something pretty while I can. If there's one thing that I learnt it's to write a post to sinister. I've got a hand over the window as I write this. Someone else could be writing this, how about a boy that's just like me. I should be worrying about the wider issues of the day. You probably think someone else is helping me write this. You would be right, it's my imaginary friend. I hope you like this poem. If you don't, please don't hit me. If you did I would be getting hit by people I don't know. I've written a poem like this already, same one as the year before. You can jump and swear about the answers but I wont see you. ----------------------------------- END OF POEM Well, there you have it. Have fun unravelling this kanundrum. Of course, if anybody would like me to verify their answers or would like me to send them the correct list in the right order just e-mail me privatly and I would be more than happy to oblige, if I don't lose the answers. Until next time, bye bye. Nathan Rupert. __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Yahoo!

Sinister: leaving sinister
by Andrew Churchman 04 Aug '02

04 Aug '02

hi, I've been on this list since I was a sophmore in highschool and now I' beginning my sophmore year at college. Sinister used to be a great way to hear about actual B&S content. There'd be rumours about shows back when they weren't the jetsetting stars they are now, people would talk about neat little things like stuart zipping his cardigan on "great expectations" or the sound of the lit cigarette on "chickfactor",etc. All this has changed though in the past year. Whenever I open these digest I'm bombarded with storys, rants, poems, that aren't even remotely related to B+S. Sinister seems more like a place now for people just to talk about there personal lives. I wasn't going to write anything to the list before unscribing but I just wanted some of the new listees to know that this list wasn't always this boring. So that's it. At least one of my posts on sinister got quoted on pitchfork. -- andrew __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Yahoo!

Sinister: the cries of a sinister (or perhaps not so sinister) gal
by Histrianic＠aol.com 04 Aug '02

04 Aug '02

Hi Sinister. Because I am in a writer's rut and can't rhyme my verse (Or rather, my lines. I'm afraid now we've gone back in reverse.) I have chosen this faithful day to greet you lot. I must warn you, though, that this post has no plot, So if you wish to read something exciting and worthwhile, You should just ignore this, or grit your teeth and read with a smile. I have loads to tell if only someone would listen- Or understand. But most of my stories lack frison. That's my favorite word nowadays, by the way, Because it doesn't or does happen everyday. It all depends on perspective, I guess. It usually doesn't occur when I'm in a mess or under stress. Which I often am, and for no good reason. It sometimes depends on the season. Earlier this summer, I came home to my parents and Pete and Shelley (Pete and Shelley are my hamsters, and they are sometimes smelly.) Because I was upset I overdosed, and that landed me Straight in the hospital. It was dumb of me, I agree. It had been thought of too much to not materliaze, though- I walked out of my room all grinning and aglow, Maybe even seeming happy to the untrained eye. A few days later, I had another episode, and my mother asked me why My emotions were so out of control. I don't know. It's not a road I can patrol. The funniest bit is that my mom took away the drugs from my shrink. Not wanting me dependent or addicted, I think. Not that they helped much anyway, because I was still sad. (Sad is an understatement. I was quite psychotic and mad.) I won't go into the details of my fits because It always creates an awkward pause. Maybe this will, too, without that aid. I'm sure someone will think this childish and cliched. And because I have 24 inch thighs When I really should have a waist that size, I still have nightmares. I still wake up and scream. They tell me it all has to do with self-esteem. I'm sure it does, because the measurement tape tell me otherwise. My thighs expand by inches when they are reflected in my eyes. It's funny, though, because I am so arrogant, so vain. Maybe it's made up in my head. Maybe it's all feigned. Anything's possible. (Except loving myself in this 128 pound body. That's impossible.) I'm sure it's all just an excuse. Because I'm so confused, my body is abused. All 68 inches of my height must be toned and tight, And then maybe, just maybe I'll be alright. (Yeah, right, like that'll ever happen.) I feel like my entire self is misshapen. So now I've just found a slower way to self-destruction Falling prey to the world's seduction- Telling me that I should look like this and act like that: "Get rid of the fat and stop acting like soda that's gone flat." Oh, this is so cliched. This is the masturbation of my pride. (Thanks, Matt, for giving me that. I use it at times when I am tried.) I'm not always like this, though, I am giddy sometimes. Would you believe this was all brought on by rhymes? Because I was running short on inspiration? And even as I write this, I am covered by perspiration. I have to exercise hours to burn off that apple I ate. It's my dream to have a miraculously fast metabolic rate. The Essay on the Personal tells me love is all that matters. I don't think it's fair for a someone to love a person in shatters. I should end this now, because it's time for me to sleep. Maybe tonight I won't dream and weep. I appreciate if you've read this. Writing this gave me a momentary bliss. xoxo h p.s. if i've managed to write this well enough, then i should apologize for being depressing. yeah. i do that. +-------------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail sinister(a)missprint.org.

Sinister: Rectangular pillars that slightly project from a wall
by David Moore 04 Aug '02

04 Aug '02

Hi All, I've been struggling to decipher the lyrics of the Peel Acres songs & here is the usual half-assed comedy mis-hearing riddled effort. Massive props to Em for giving me an enormouse start. Corrections, improvements always welcome, especially from the authors :) Belle And Sebastian - Peel Acres, 25.07.02 You Don't Send Me Since you went away Everything is looking great I'm a little bored When I see you out maybe walking in the street You always cross the road Listen honey there is nothing you can say to offend me Listen honey there is nothing you can say to offend me anymore You don't send me anymore Our little scene is getting smaller by the day It's a human zoo But the key is change getting over all your problems, youre not a fool Listen honey there is nothing you can say to surprise me Listen honey there is nothing you can say to offend me Cause you don't send me Every sound is tame every group would be the same It would drive you mad What ever happened to the sounds that left you on the floor Laughing, crying, jumping and singing Listen honey there is nothing you can say to astound me Listen honey there is nothing you can say to offend me anymore You don't send me anymore You don't send me anymore You don't send me anymore Roy Walker I wandered all night I wondered all night about you I've been here for years just wandering around the neighbourhood Like a fresh manifestation of an old phenomenon A breeze whips through the tree The rustling leaves and branches bend together the cutest way Forever by the forces of the Lord's choreography I wandered all night I wondered all night about you I've been here for years just wandering around the neighbourhood Just for a second the combination of sights and surroundings Sends him hurtling back to the myriads? of? teenager thoughts and fears He passes big houses and family cars They saddled the horses in cobblestone yards Catches the moon looking down from the stars Like it's done for years and years Wonder, I wonder I wondered all night about you I wonder, I wonder I wondered all night, all night about you Perpetual? feeling? In the grown-up worlds that surround him That there are secrets that can be revealed with knowledge and philosophy And oh to be dumb Oh to be smart He might be nursing a broken heart But feeling this way is just playing a part that's been around for centuries I wandered all night I wondered all night about you I've been here for years just wandering around the neighbourhood I wandered all night I wondered all night about you Love On The March Animals come banging their drums Street fears in summer Kids run around Having their fun Men are already drunk Ba ba da-da-da, etc. A religious holidays begun Maybe its because we have no sun Marching begins, animals sing Words that are twisted Meanings of hate Look at the face Bitter and ready to fight A religious holidays begun Maybe its because we have no sun Lost in the crowd Shouting out loud Drinking my fill of a Bottle of gin Ill do anything To help me forget about you Woeful affair You hopelessly flirt With that girl who works in the Pub for a night When at closing time You will be at my door Tell me what it is I have to do I sacrificed everything for you I was feeling so good and the sun was shining All I wanted was to get across the street I made my biggest mistake when I left her with the hurling? match? and the broken kettle? Youre sick, ever since I was a little kid I always have to bail you out when you take off with your drinking mates and their idiot games If you sing those songs you have to slip They beat me up because I crossed their march They said I need to learn a bit of respect But I am on their side & I follow the team When I get out of here somebodys gonna get it Ba ba da-da-da, etc. Sleep On A Sunbeam When the half light makes for a clearer view Sleep a little more if you want to But restlessness has seized me now its true I could watch the dreams flicker in your eyes Lying here asleep on a sunbeam I wonder if you realize you fascinate me so Think Ive found a new destination If you think you need inspiration Roll out the map and mark it with a pen I will follow every direction Just lace up your shoes, go and fetch em A sleeping bag, a tent I know the summer's passing by All I need is somewhere I feel the grass beneath my feet A walk on sand, a fire I can warm my hands My joy will be complete How about a new destination Never short of new inspiration Roll out your map and mark it with a the gin? We've got plans to conquer the country I'm waiting for you to get out of your situation with your job and quit your life/wife? All I need is somewhere I feel the grass beneath my feet A walk on sand, a fire I can warm my hands My joy will be complete Desperation Made A Fool Of Me Im sick Ive felt this way for some time now Fed up with the daily grind Im trying to find relief If you feel this way then clap your hands Never thought this was a private line? What is making people mean about? sin? Now that I have got my motives straight And I am thinking clearly Ill sneak up to your window with my senses open? wide Im tired On my shoulders weighing heavily With the full responsibility For your troubles and your charms You betray the cause?? that run with you Like the sword in some old tragedy Either stick it in my back Or pull out Now that I have got my motives straight And I am thinking clearly Ill sneak up to your window with my senses open wide Never really thought it would be like this I know its kinda? happening Im glad that it is Im glad Now that I have got my motives straight And I am thinking clearly Ill sneak up to your window with my senses open wide I never knew that ?? would be/feel? like this I know its kinda?? happened Im glad that it is Im glad I love (most of) these songs. Its rumoured that Mick wrote You Don't Send Me - true or not it has a brilliant trumpet part so Mr Cooke still gives good horn. And Stuart sounds a lot like Donovan. Great vibes on Roy Walker too: especially since Beans was on or in the bog whilst playing. Shades of Duane Allman in the Muscle Shoals toilet tearing out that fantastic long solo on Boz Scaggs' Loan Me A Dime (what's that? You've brought that up before, David? OK, I'll shut up about it then.) Good toilet humour between songs from the aptly named Wee Chris btw. The P F said the harmonies were reminiscent of 70's YOUNG. It didn't strike me at the time, but I have to admit that when I went back to look for it, it was there. I guess Love On The March has made the least impression on me so far - all a bit too D UHF CD22 for my taste. Sleep On A Sunbeam is beautiful: Sarah makes it all sound so real & personal, whether it is from her imagination or not. Like Em, I hope its not really a wife she wants the geezer to quit! Spoil my nice romantic slushy image! Pretty lead guitar from Stevie(?) too, *and* he plays most of the way through the song, just to please the P F. The intro to Desperation Made A Fool Of Me sounds sadly like Seymour Stein, except for the piano, but it gets great shortly thereafter. The glorious OTT piano and the soaring keyboards remind me a lot of something, most probably mid-60's Dylan but that could also be the reversal in position within the lyric, all the way from "I'm sick" to "I'm glad". I like this song a lot. A recording with the vocal mixed higher would be fantastic, please. Ha ha. I can hear the echo in the almost completely empty room now, but I'll plod on. Some thanks are due. To Princess Oon for her lovely post: I feel privileged to have been involved in a small way in her fortnight in the UK & I am glad she enjoyed herself & saw so many friends old & new. And ate all of London's roast duck & chillies. Did anyone notice a recurrent theme of missing appointments due to breakfast lasting well into lunch time? How does she stay so slim & small!! Also I get to go to work wearing either one of my two Thai elephant ties or the amazing silk elephant boxer shorts. The Pissing Girl keyring has yet to make an appearance there however, & as I am way too fat for the beautiful boy tee shirt it was donated to Ally. Talking of whom, in a recent fortnight he and Lucy have been round to stay (albeit way too briefly), I have watched The Clientele's show with Tim and ended up playing pool with Alasdair, Marianna & Mark in Mark's basement (on his beautifully fashioned home-made table! how clever), and then on Sunday Pam & I went to a barbecue at Tim/Stevie/Sez' with some more lovely people. I wouldn't have been lucky enough to have done any of that except for Sinister so the biggest thanks of all are due to Princess Honey. Long may she reign!

Sinister: what do you wear fishnet tights with anyway?
by idleberry 04 Aug '02

04 Aug '02

ugh yeah so there was a picnic in edinburgh last week. I thought about telling you about it last week, but I couldn't be arsed. Basically, a bunch of folk showed up, we went to the pub, then we went to get dinner then we went to a bar then some of us went to a club. Um ok. Thats a little too vague. Started at 2:30 ish. EYE-SPIED: fraiseboy, sunnyset, zoziepop, pigtails, gordon, Richard Submarine, me, Keith, Belle, and sweetie. Started off in Princes St Gardens, twas a fine day to sit there. Then went off to a pub. I could tell you then name but you don't care, not really, do you. Then sunnyset and zozie left. So then we went and got dinner at Bella Pasta. 7 people dinners cost �20.20 in all, which was bargainous. All becuase they gave us some pizzas whose (is it whose? pff. Why didn't I ever get taught English Grammar at school. I dunno.) bases were (belong to us) all wonky and resembled the surface of the moon, possibly, I'm guessing, judging on photos I've seen of the moon. Or it was rustic, if you prefer. Anyway, the pizzas were screwed up so we got them for free, and they tasted fine to me. We went to a bar for a few drinks, a few people left, and the remainder of us went out to the egg and jiggled and wiggled all over the shop. then me and Richard crashed at my pals house, and I got back Sunday afternoon. So it was a petty long picnic for me. And last night I went out with fraiseboy and pigtails. there was all these pretty punk chicks there. Them. With their fishnets, and slim calves, and cheekbones made from glaciers, and blue eyes, and bed head straight hair, and ripped tshirts, no bras, red kitten heel shoes, and black ankle boots and fingerless lace gloves, and lashings and lashings of black eye make up and blood red lipstick. See, i'd look like a prostitute if I tried that. I guess though, in the light, they didn't look so hott. It was more in the club that they looked good. hmm. Might buy some fishnet tihgts though. But its getting something else to wear with them. I'll have to think about this carefully. ok i'm off love idles ===== http://groups.yahoo.com/group/corduroysmoke/ starting playground gossip and passing notes __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?

Sinister: animals come banging their drums. or something. B&S Video link.

You can watch B&S in glorious (almost) technicolour from Benicassim here: I presume that it's a TV station's highlights package. http://casiopea.emisiondigital.com/...stian/video.asf It's fairly good quality in terms of image though I do have ADSL which probably helps, the sound is perfect. It's about 30 mins long. Stu M claims he is looking forward to Paul Weller, they play one of the Peel Acres tunes, Roy Walker and The Boy With the Arab Strap. And a jolly time was had by all. It looks like it was a balmy evening too, Stu is in all white. Prada I would imagine with a pair of gucci shoes. Though he forgets the lyrics to LLPJ and Stevie has to help out. *TSK*. But then Monica Queen comes on so I think that the *TSK* can be ignored. " girls get up on stage too. Huge apologies if they are on Sinister but they kind of look like Daphne and Celeste. If they aren't on Sinister- they look very much like Daphne and Celeste and appear to be dancing in the same style as the aforementioned P*o*P duo. In other stuff..err I had a B&S dream last night. Isobel told me that B&S had never had a good song and that Falling From Grace was better than anything they had done "for years" though she didn't like the piano bits (and she even did a piano motion with her hands. genius.) in it as Stu did them. The above dream was fuelled by vodka, monopoly and going to bed at 7am after going spectacularly bankrupt in said game. Peel acres stuff- at first i didn;t like Love on the March. Then I realised that the lyrics were really good and that 'animals come banging their drums' wasn't a line that Frank Zappa rejected 28 years ago but about the Orange Order. I went shopping yesterday and all I had on my MD player were the peel acres tracks and they were still great 4 hours after I had left home. John Peel's voice wasn't so great. p. _________________________________________________________________ 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.
