Sinister: in which I run on about Animal Crossing, and Belle and Sebastian on the radio
by Andrea Kittenmouse 19 Apr '03

19 Apr '03

hiya, This is a pointless sort of post other than to say hi, I'm still here, how's life? I've been on #sinister a lot lately, talking with the likes of hobnob, caitlin, ken chu, mark, and the rest of em. It took me forever to figure out that retro-sec was the same person as idleberry. I'm so bad with names, especially when there's more than one. We had our yearly pledge drive at kpsu these last two weeks, and it went poorly, unfortunately. It's hard to ask other people for money for a college radio station when you and a huge percentage of the nation are unemployed and broke. I got myself a minidisc recorder, and because of that, I can now play Animal Crossing music on my show. If you don't know what Animal Crossing is...well, there really isn't a videogame more twee than Animal Crossing. I also am going to have another Belle and Sebastian A to Z Marathon soon, with another dj at the station who does a show an hour after mine ends, called Twee Cozy. I'm not sure when it's going to be on, but it's going to last about 5 hours. Also, I think I found a live recording of the Portland 9/11/01 show, so we may play that sometime too. I'll post something about it when I figure out the dates if you want to listen on the internet. Alright, gotta run, more later, Andrea K.

Sinister: Further to Risso and to Champion Casarotto
by minster＠fsmail.net 18 Apr '03

18 Apr '03

I find it only slightly ironic to be coming out of the woodwork after 3 weeks away to second the sentimentality of Mark and Risso. At least it felt a bit soppy to me. My own sense of history brings me to a place and time in life that there are certain things you could rely on. The fact that someone was ALWAYS feeling sinister was it, even if only slightly or briefly. It's what brought us here. To say 'old' is to imply history- and the cast of players in this little number have afforded the sinister story a rich plot, with an undeniably colourful and checkered history. In a word 'devotion'. Never in my life have I ever know people more devoted to an idea, emotion, or another. As a collective, I'll tell you this- you'll never find amongst people more swagger, sway and stumble all in good measure. Nor will you find more friction and fusion. Oddly it came bounding around in strong and strangely- but I'll remind those of you who can remember it truely is something to remember fondly and admire. And there was always something to talk about. In small but significant ways this lot has shaped and moved a bit of the path I walk now... I'm ever so thankful and bitter. It couldn't have happened to a more impressionable girl at the hands of an unforgivably right bunch of kids. Though I'm nearly 30 now... it doesn't feel old in sinister years- it just makes me feel experienced. So to Mark, and Trousers, To Pyth and even Swannie, to Risso and JJ, Rachel...to Beth and Andy and the Honey of a Mother. I'm keeping it close, I'm keeping it real. Devotion. Mark, you got your wish. __________________________________________________________________________ Join Freeserve http://www.freeserve.com/time/ Winner of the 2003 Internet Service Providers' Association awards for Best Unmetered ISP and Best Consumer Application. +-------------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail sinister(a)missprint.org.

Sinister: pumpkin
by stacey dahling 18 Apr '03

18 Apr '03

Whoa. The Belles played a teeny gig in Glasgow? Where have I been??? Oh, right. Locked in my parents basement in wee Rhode Island, being force-fed Doritos and Hot Tamales and ginger ale until I puke. Goddamn figures. Anyway... I've actually been on holiday with my lovely sweet Belle boy, introducing him to the wonders of glutton consumerism... and my scary parents, who actually didn't get scary until he left and they tried to sneak broccoli into my system. Nothing like eating shit food and buying lots of cheap clothes to lift my spirits. And make me pine for Glasgow once again. Last night I went to the video shop and stared at lots of titles I had never heard of. I picked Pumpkin, a Christina Ricci film. Has anyone else seen this? If so, why didn't you mention that 'Stars of Track and Field' played a starring role? As did the Gentle Waves. Dude. What a pleasant surprise. Thanks to everyone who replied to my last pleading post. Sorry I haven't responded to y'all personally yet, but I shall. Eventually. Your reward will be a somewhat complete transcript of a special interview. (When I'm done typing it out.) So much to do. So little will to do it. I should be off preparing thesis interviews. Mmmm. See some of you soon. Not soon enough. Miss you. *mwah* -stacey _________________________________________________________________ STOP MORE SPAM with the new MSN 8 and get 2 months FREE* http://join.msn.com/?page=features/junkmail +-------------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail sinister(a)missprint.org.

Sinister: Oh, Him. He's Just like the Music he listens to: Short, sweet and as twee as pos
by Jay Eckard 18 Apr '03

18 Apr '03

Damn that little butterfly Boy from MSN. Damn him and his short subject lines. I am loquacious, by gad, even prolix. I need my space. Fortunately, I seem to have enough of that of late. I moved, you see. Across town to a proper little house in Durham. It's quite cheap and very nice. Even the cat likes it, he's all picking fights with the new tomcats. Probably losing, as he is my cat, and consequently well, short and pretty twee. For a kitty. He's been sporting a little badge on his collar -- along with a bell -- that has MERGE RECORDS on. Merge is the label than M Bond and Essex Green are on. Also the Magnetic Fields used to be, but they moved. Anyway, M Bond and the Essex Green rock. Or rather, they Pop. You should look into them. Alex went on about the new Lucksmiths. I think that's great. I'm in my "I Love the Lucksmiths" phase right now. I listen to "Off with his Cardigan" every day as I get ready for work. It makes me happy even before my 4 or 5 shots of espresso. I can't wait to hear new stuff. Speaking of Great and New and Australia, there's this band called Architecture in Helsinki. Two of their songs were sent to me by that noted World Traveller, Phil-two. They also pop quite hard. Go also and listen to them. I am currently preparing my little new place for the arrival of one Laura Llew. The cat will be decked out in all his finery and waiting to stare at her. They're close like that. She's coming to see the Delgados. Well, she says that, but I think she's here to stock up on booze and boys. Or at least hang out in bars and look at boys. Like Gordon the Bartender or Damon Who Never Looks at Me. Speaking of not looking at me, there's this boy who comes into my shop who is hott, hott, hott and I finally realized why. He's a dead ringer for Jeff Buckley. AND he has a twin brother (who doesn't look quite as much like Jeff -- it's the hair, I think). I am of course quite in love. Though THAT always turns out badly. Except for Mark Cassaratto (Which is similar to the actual spelling if not the actual spelling) who sent me BUS PORN! That's right, actually adult pictures of the No 22 Bus to Putney Common. It was so much I had to stop blogging for days. Days, I tell you. Well, this has gone on quite long enough and it is very late. Today's payday, so I have booze to drink and debts to pay. Later, yo l'Autre (Gay) Jay This post brought to you by New Order, "Bizarre Love Triangle" from their new Retro comp., "Poor Boy, Minor Key" by M Bond from his Transfiguration of Vincent album, Lazy Line Painter Jane, "By the Sea" by the Essex Green from their album The Long Goodbye and "Brittle Women" by Glass Candy from their disc "Love Love Love". PS: Whoever did something inappropriate with me and Miss Crush better 'fess up quick-like. That ain't decent, yo. PPS: Speaking of "yo", be very careful of the sites you visit at work. I went to the blog of a certain person on the list who frequently says "yo" and the boss walked in. "Um, no boss, I SWEAR it isn't porn!" I said when he chastised me for looking at adult sites. "Then why is there a picture of a boy in dishabille?" he rather reasonably enquired. "Umm." I said. "I know that's your thing, Jay" he said sternly "But NOT AT WORK!" Now I'm all confused if by "my thing" he means being gay, gay porn, gay porn at work, or gay porn at work of Sinister Boys. -- "The Posby falls into a Trance In which it does a little Dance."

Sinister: holidays in the sun
by Alex Goffey 18 Apr '03

18 Apr '03

Oh hello again Sinister! It's Good Friday and the obligatory Good Friday midday movie is on TV. It's all old hollywood cinematic melodrama, as the religious films always seem to be. Normally it's The Ten Commandments or Ben-Hur, but this year they've opted for other films. Richard Burton's in this one, I think, looking young and, I must say, quite fetching hehe. Holidays bring so many good things. LOTS of creme eggs, lots of exhausting my bank account to as little as possible whilst trying to maintain an appearance of "no really, i AM saving for my holiday" (but in the end just failing dismally), and, sadly, lots of trying to catch up on crappy uni work. Ugh. It's only a week holiday, but it's a break nonetheless. And I have better things to look forward to in my next break... For those of you in London, I'm requesting your assistance! I shall be making an antipodean jaunt to London and to Sweden in June/July and I'd really like to know good places to go, recommendations, whatever. Oh, and if anyone wants to show me around, then that would be great too. I'm staying in Kilburn so even directions for the tube would be appreciated hehe :) Holidays also give me a chance to listen to my new cds that I've amassed in the past few weeks. I finally bought myself a copy of 'Fold Your Hands Child, You Walk Like A Peasant' at last and I'm disappointed that nobody ever put 'Family Tree' on a mixtape for me. Oh I love that song - hell, I like it all. Listening to it driving down the highway was perfect. The same day I bought new lucksmiths, which you should all go out and buy because a. it is lucksmiths, and b. it is good. Argh the advertisements just came on really loudly! Happy Easter everyone :) alex xx ========================================= The best looking boys are taken The best looking girls are staying inside http://www.geocities.com/veruca_salt_97/ http://darlingalex.diaryland.com/ _________________________________________________________________ MSN Instant Messenger now available on Australian mobile phones.

Sinister: reporting back from the other side
by Retro^Sec 17 Apr '03

17 Apr '03

hola Sinister Well, last night was the gig of the Belle and Sebastians, raising money to help fund the Sunbed Alliance advertising costs for a month. Following from a haircut with which I am perfectly pleased (bob, with undercut, and short cutsie fringe that goes against the grain of this seasons long rock-chick eye-skimming fringes. Hey, I don't follow trends, I do my own thing), I went through to Glasgow to meet with the friends, and the fans of the belle and sebastian. I would say shouts to the people I saw, but I had to shout anyway cos it was really busy, and I pretty much said Hi to them all, so no point in doing it again. The pre-gig atmosphere was pretty cool, just hanging out chatting to folks. The band apparently weren't due on til 10:30, so I headed off, got a bite to eat and enjoyed a glass of wine that made me deliciously tipsy, then headed back to the venue. The setlist of the jukebox was pretty darn cool, often one of those little side effects from being in a pub half full with Belle and Sebastian fans. Then everyone headed down to the gig. But that was when it was time for yours trully to head homewards. I'd had enough to drink, it was the last train home. I didn't go to the gig. Hell, I'm seeing them next month. I'd rather save them for special occasions. I remember the joy of the first gig, and the second. The third was pretty good, but the first time.. well, it was the best. And now? its easter holidays! yay! Am looking forward to the pastels gig next weekend though. This will be a first: not seen the pastels before.

I found Shallow Hal a pretty good film. Maybe not all pretty people are bastards, and not all ugly people are nice, but this is a comedy movie, so it stereotypes some kinds of people.
