Sinister: a little short for a stormtrooper
by David Hewitt 24 Sep '03

24 Sep '03

G'day again, Sinister. There's a moderately interesting interview with Stuart Murdoch on The Onion AV Club this week: http://www.theonionavclub.com/3937/feature1.html Modest sort of chap, isn't he? I realise that just posting links isn't really the done thing, but perhaps you can balance this out with the several pages of self-indulgent crap I posted the other day, and we'll call it even, eh? Bulk love, -Vanilla Flavoured David. PS: Will Porter, you're a handsome devil. It wasn't my idea to leave the country, honest. But I'll be back - especially now I know there's a snog in it for me. _________________________________________________________________ Chat via SMS. Simply send 'CHAT' to 1889918.

Sinister: Hello
by Keith Watson 23 Sep '03

23 Sep '03

Suddenly everyone's piled back. Chris and Julia Lynyrd, Genevieve, the Dork of Harringay (you owe me 8 squid - that Tracey Thorn record is a pile of shit), Jackson Jeffrey Jackson, Mark C and others. I even notice Dr.Stride has lost his middle name. Nice to see Offbeat is back after the summer break. All we need now is for George Dickie, Rodd and Northy to come back. Hello to all you cheeky young monkeys enjoying this exciting new mailing list too! Glad to hear everyone's enjoying the new LP, "magical pop confection" that it apparently is; I haven't heard it yet cause it's not out yet but I'm sure I will enjoy it when it does come out. Does anyone have the DVD yet or does that take too long to download? The Tygers of Pang Tang were on Never mind the Buzzcocks a minute ago. I've always wondered what they sounded like - what with a belting name like that and I wasn't disappointed. Did anyone else see it? Is anyone else a fan? I haven't done anything in the last few years. Keith. --- Outgoing mail is certified Virus Free.

Sinister: Re: sinister-digest V4 #1066

Part 1 IN WHICH OUR HERO IS QUITE FOND OF YOUR UNDERPANTS David Hewitt, I reckon I'm as old as you around here (i.e. just old enough to have required someone to explain what Bowlie *was*, and then wish impotently that I'd had the presence of mind to predict that such a thing was going to exist and be right up my alley before I knew that I liked that sort of thing), and I'd still shag you. Or at least kiss you on the mouth if you hadn't left my country. And just after I'd bragged to all your friends about how we'd tricked them out of you. Talk about egg on America's face, I'll tell you what. Is there anything Mark Casarotto can't do? Well, yes: he can't fool me with that just-huddling-together-for-warmth routine again, that's for damned sure. Part 2 IN WHICH OUR HERO CAN'T REALLY THINK OF A HEADING FOR PART 2 AND OOOOOH, SOMETHING SHINY OVER THERE Have I already explained that I left behind the urban life for the just-a-smidge-too-far-away-to-be-suburban life, complete with an automobile. Turns out it's kind of dull out here. Fortunately, most of the fury has subsided, and I'm confident that I won't go kabuki and maim anyone, which was something I couldn't swear to when navigating crowded subway terminals. Anyway, it's better for my ADHD out here. Not so many distractions, I mean. Incidentally, that reminds me of something: The other day when reading a magazine, I happened upon an advertizement for a new ADHD medication that was Nicotine-based. It struck me that all the ADD/ADHD people I know smoke, and I wondered if maybe this was not some form of self-medication. Like depressives who smoke pot. Or writers who drink. I can't decide if that's insightful, a matter of adding the 2+2 in front of me, or ridiculous. Do any of you know anything of these matters? Part 3 IN WHICH OUR HERO NAME-DROPS THE PARROT YOU KNOW WHICH PARROT I MEAN Alright, who has it? Now that the oldsters are back in force, I think someone better fess up to not having passed it on, or Laura Llew might just throw the Sestina Weasel at you. I think it's a safe bet that nobody wants that. xo, Will Porter (not the new Will at all, these days) __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo!

Sinister: Annoying children with soccer cleats and SuperSoakers...
by Kim Girton 23 Sep '03

23 Sep '03

Ah, it�s the Reporting Back that makes you quiver, is it? Apologies for the delay in reporting, those who were eager to hear the synopsis of east coast leisure activities, but the lab lost my soil samples and I had to return to our digging site to collect replacements to be analyzed, and I couldn�t do a Report Back without soil results, now could I? That would be a disgrace. Mere words cannot quite describe the wonder of that which was this first picnic. No, nothing short of interpretive dancing would be accurate. But since all I have are words: There was enough food to feed a small army, though with Washington�s reputation for being gluttonous and evile, what else would one expect? Lisa�s cookies were phenomenal and I kicked myself for days for not remembering to take some home with me� If you ever undertake baking again, Lisa, I�ll pay you for two dozen!!! :) The bees must be lurking on the list, too, as they were nearly more friendly than the Picnickers (this may of course be attributed to the fact that Picknickers are less likely to attempt to do a few laps in your spiked orange and/or cranberry juice). Right, and there are no bees IN the ocean, in case you were confused about where the Mid-Atlantic Coast is. Apologies for a non-specific recount of all who attended, as we ended up, surprisingly, outnumbering the birthday party of a reported 75 attendees who had ACTUALLY reserved the picnic spot that we eventually commandeered. I�m pretty sure the birthday partiers were lying about their guest list, though. There was no way there were 75 people there. A lovely waterfall (kindly decorated by the locals with empty Beast cans and Slurpee cups) served as a delightful background on what was probably the first obscenely pleasant day so far this fall. It was almost easy to forget one was in the politically, socially, and economically tumultuous District of Columbia, that is, barring the occasional outbreak of sirens from just past the line of evergreens at the edge of Rock Creek Park. Did you know there really is a Pierce Mill, after which the nearby road was named? I didn�t. It�s a pretty sorry mill as far as mills go, but not altogether aesthetically unpleasant for a historic unused mill. A non-Sinister picnicker swore he saw a frog in the stream by the Mill, but we�re pretty sure he was drunk, or just cruelly taunting the nearby wee ones, who also swore the frog existed and then ran away to pee in their trousers. A pretty low-key event, really � we chatted about the band, of course, DICKYWUSS, of course, and those of us who had not yet heard it quickly grew jealous of those who had. Lisa entertained us with stories about what used to be Stuart�s car and the Dog on Wheels, and we discussed the merits � or lack thereof � of Constitution Hall as a venue for a band like Belle & Sebastian. The general consensus was that the Hall, indeed, sucks, for pretty much any band, and definitely for the likes of B&S. Thank God they will be appearing at the more commercial -- and thusly more indie-kid spurned -- 9:30 Club next month. So suck it up, DC hipsters, and come out to join the B&S fun. It�s so rare we get to enjoy them live in these here parts. With the exception perhaps of the bruises I obtained from being assaulted with tennis balls, we all left unscathed, well-fed, and definitely well-sunned. I unfortunately could not locate Jenny at Wag night, but perhaps next time, eh? Special thanks to those who brought food and drink, and whoever brought the tennis ball� You'll get yours. :) Kevin, sorry you had to miss the event. There�s something to be said for just stuffing your personal life in a tote and bringing it with you, instead of missing a rare event like this one. We could always have fed one more� :) Don�t lose sleep if you also were a no-show. Perhaps someone else will take it upon him or herself to organize Act II. Thanks to all, and I�ll see you �round the List. ~ Kim P.S. AND THE SOIL RESULTS WERE AS FOLLOWS: * AREA: Near Pierce Mill; Pierce Mill Road, Washington, D.C. NW * Soil Nutrient Levels (based on ideal conditions for agronomic crops): - pH ~ 6.2 (barely optimum) - Phosphorus ~ 38 ppm (optimum) - Potassium ~ 276 ppm (above optimum) - Magnesium ~ 49 ppm (below optimum) - Calcium ~ 2660 ppm * Recommendations: Treatment with calcium carbonate to raise the magnesium level and pH of the soil. Needed nutrients for a yield of 6 T/acre of alfalfa include 50 lb phosphate/acre. For 100 Bu/acre, the soil will require a treatment of 100 lb nitrogen/acre and 20 lb phosphate/acre. 33 T/acre corn for silage will require soil treatment of 240 lb nitrogen/acre and 80 lb phosphate/acre. * Basically, we don�t recommend anyone begin farming Rock Creek Park. At least not near the bike path, anyway. __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo!

Sinister: Bound for Bangladesh
by Amy Skelton 23 Sep '03

23 Sep '03

Dear Sinister, I know over the past couple of years that I've been on the list I've barely posted but that doesn't mean I don't love you.... BOUND FOR BANGLADESH Anyway, I'm due to fly out to Bangladesh in the next week and I'm very excited!! I've got a dream one-year internship working on water/sanitation projects throughout the country (something that's been on my long list of things I want to do with my life for a while now). The doing something pretty while you can that Laurel mentioned doesn't just hold out for personal relationships (although I understand that one very well - my mother died when I was sixteen) but also for all the times when you say or think 'I want to do that/visit there.......! DO IT NOW!! When it comes to visiting countries I've got a long list to go but hey I'm only a young pup and I'm doing things as fast as I can. I used the same subject title when emailing a friend and he said it sounded like I was participating in a bondage marathon for my fundraising. I mean what kind of girl does he take me for? In reality, as part of my fundraising for VSO (the lovely people making my placement possible) I managed to strike something else off my list - skydiving. I tried to think of a way to describe the feeling from this and give it justice but all I can say is - try it for yourself... STAYING IN SOUTH ASIA If anyone happens to be passing through Dhaka in the next year and needs somewhere to kip then get in touch. A male friend and I have got an arrangement (no guffaws please) of catering for our opposite sex friends accom wise. It's part of our damage limitation on getting bits of carrots thrown at us etc. So, is anyone else going to be in the South Asia region? I know Corduroy Boy formerly of this parish is in Calcutta as we speak but with the amount of people on this list is there a chance of some more??? SCARBOROUGH FAIR AND MEET UPS I still hold the Scarborough gig dear in my heart. Although it was weird that the previous act I had seen there was The Grumbleweeds (dodgy but funny cabaret act aimed at families on holiday) when I was a v. young girl. Although I was already listening to B & S and knew about Sinister I never got my motivation to subscribe until fate sat me next to Big Stu at the gig and he managed to convince me that it was a great place to be. How right he was. The people I've met at meet-ups in Manchester and Glasto - you're brilliant! I am more of a face-to-face person rather than saying too much on posts. Off-list posts rock too. The more people are seeing the email the less personal I get. That's why I have the upmost respect for those of you that do feel comfortable with posting personal stuff to Sinister. A couple of months ago a newbie said she didn't find anyone interesting here and then she left. I beg to differ and.... WOOPS sounds like I'm about to start discussing the list on the list so I'll go on a tangent and sign off. Hey you other lurkers -fair enough if you don't feel like posting but I urge you to go to meet-ups when possible. You will be very pleasantly surprised. Hopefully see some of you at Offbeat tonight. I've decided to hot foot it down from Middlesbrough this evening. I was supposed to be flying out tomorrow but the departure date has been put back. DESERT ISLAND DISCS AND NEW ALBUM When packing I couldn't decide what to take/leave out so I'm leaving everything bar one compilation that I won on Phil Jupitus' breakfast show. It's got The Flaming Lips, Violent Femmes etc. on it and it's great. I've been holding off listening to too much of the album so that it is a nice surprise when it finally turns up in the post at Dhaka. Didn't I say I was going.... Well I am this time. Very poor readability comes from typing in a public library with no toilet facilities - I can't concentrate!

Sinister: when i'm cleanin' windows
by David Hewitt 23 Sep '03

23 Sep '03

G'day Sinister. Boy howdy, that Mark Casarotto, eh? Is there anything he CAN'T do? DON'T MIND ME Well, with a few years under my belt, I'm neither a fresh-faced newcomer, bursting with potential, nor am I a grizzled veteran, who's seen it all before. But I'm going to post anyway, dammit. Here's to the overlooked middle children of Sinister. We've been around long enough for you to decide that you definitely don't want to shag us after all, but not quite long enough for you to have developed a nostalgic fondness for us. We don't promise brand-new, happy, good times, nor do we remind you of your slimmer, prettier, more popular days. In many respects, we're the worst of both worlds. I haven't earned the right to get all nostalgic about the bad old days, nor can I really justify introducing myself. So sod it. I'm just going to post the same rambling load of old bollocks I always do. You've been warned. You should know me just about well enough by now to know roughly what to expect, but not quite well enough yet to actually be interested in any of it. Here goes. RECORD SHOPPING I'm looking forward to the new record. Anti-piracy sentiments aside, I'm waiting to buy it before I hear it, simply because I love going to the store to buy an album that I've been looking forward to, bunging it in the CD player when I get home, sitting down with the liner notes, and really just soaking it all up. Basking in the whole experience of the thing. I'm a shameless consumer, I know. There are only a few records a year that I get to have that experience with these days, though, and I think that number is getting smaller every year. I'm hardly going to deprive myself of this one. Plus, there's something to be said for anticipation, don't you think? My old man (bless his cotton socks) always used to tell me: 'hunger is the best sauce'. As much as I begrudge the admission after all these years, I think the old fart actually has a point after all. SINGLE? Robin Stout wondered what the second single off the album would be. And here am I just wondering why there's even a first single off the album. That's a drastic change of tack, surely? And a slightly worrying one, perhaps? I sort of hope it's something that the new label have forced them into, and not a change of attitude on the part of the band themselves. I used to buy a lot of singles, back in the day, and I used to love finding great little gems of b-sides on them, and I'd claim that the most obscure ones were my favourite songs by the band in question, for added indie-cred. Sometimes I'd even mean it. With some bands, the album that you made up from whacking all of the b-sides together on a C-60 was actually quite a bit better than the one they'd gone to the trouble of putting all on the one disc. I gave up buying most bands' singles some time ago, however, as the ratio of 'killer' to 'filler' b-sides seemed to swing brutally against me. Belle and Sebastian are the last remaining bastion of the genius b-side, I reckon, and I hope that this continues. I like that the singles are self-contained little gems, rather than simply previews or teasers of an album they want you to buy, with a remix or ego track tacked on, as a most bands (even the good ones) seem to be offering lately. I also like that there aren't any repeated songs across the various Belle and Sebastian discs in my collection (well, apart from the two versions of The State I Am In, and most of A Century Of..., I suppose, nitpickers). I realise that the duplication of one song across the two new discs is a relatively minor complaint, but I really do hope that the band's overall attitude towards singles remains the same. Most singles don't stay in rotation nearly as long as their companion albums do, but Belle and Sebastian's are all (yes, even TIJAMRS - what was the witty nickname for that one again?) still essential, and still get wheeled out fairly regularly. Particularly the white one with the stupid title. NO EXIT Miss Madeleine: Sit down, you. You're not going anywhere. You're one of the first people I got to know around these parts, and still one of my absolute favourites. I'll let you in on a little tip - you don't actually have to READ Sinister, just drop us a line every once in a while. At least keep your oar in - you know you'll miss us. Well, not me specifically, but you know, those other people. The better-looking, wittier ones. I bet they'll miss you. SEPTEMBER Some people said some things about September. Well, down here, September is, what, March, in the old money. You know, when it starts to turn Autumnal (what's the adjective for 'Fall', Americans?). My favourite time of year, in fact, you lucky Northern Hemisphere sods. September is actually rather pleasant here at the moment as well, however, as it's starting to warm and brighten up a little, after a particularly bleak winter. The seasons are turning a little late this year, so it's nice to be able to enjoy the change without the pollen and hay fever that usually accompany it. So yeah. Huzzah for September. REPORTING BACK Well, sort of. It wasn't an official Sinister gathering or anything, but it occurred to me that I had four Sinister heads under my roof on the weekend, so that probably warrants a mention. In attendance were: my good lady wife (Julie), the inimitable Trixie Firecracker, and the wind-swept and interesting Miss Marianna, who was stopping by from London on her way to all sorts of far more interesting places than smelly old Melbourne. I think her travel agent has about as solid a grasp of geography as mine does. Anyway, it was a fun time, even though Julie and I had to bow out of joining Misses Trixie and Marianna for a drink the following night as well, due to tiredness resulting from looking at baby animals and chocolate all day. Sorry about that. We're getting old, you see. Marianna: Have a whale of a time, m'dear, and please do tell us all about it. It was grand to see you again. BLIMEY, HE CARRIES ON A BIT, DOESN'T HE? Finally, just a quick shout out to the one and only Amanda Wright, to wish her all the very best in the UK. Knowing the company she's in, I'm sure she'll be as happy as a clam. Bulk love, -Vanilla Flavoured David PS: All of you lot in the UK and Australia are regularly getting drunk and playing Eye Toy, I trust? If not, you should be. _________________________________________________________________ Protect your inbox from harmful viruses with new ninemsn Premium.
