Sinister: is there any wonder?
by Stefano [Steady-State] 04 Nov '03

04 Nov '03

My Dear Sinister Looking through the shelves at the bookshop I saw a paper copy of The Spoon River Anthology. I remembered I had loaned if from the library, years ago. The way one buys the things without paying too much attention, I bought a copy. I think I really missed that book, those characters and the stories of their lives condensed in few lines. Like that is all left of an existence, something to weighed on a chemist´s balance, and pound worth nothing. I´m sure I missed it when I got to Francis Turner I could not play / in boyhood. / In manhood I could only sip the cup, / not drink -/ For scarlet fever let my heart diseased. / Yet I lie here/ Soothed by secret none but Mary knows:/ There is a garden of acacia, / Catalpa trees, and arbors sweet with vines - / There on that afternoon of June / By Mary´s side - Kissing her with my soul upon my lips/ it suddenly took flight. It was way before I even ever dared to hold someone hands that had read the story of Francis, but it was only when my soul took flight, kissing her, with my soul upon my lips that I barely realised what he might have felt. Is there anything like the end of love? I don´t know. I don´t think so though. Not the way I see the things. Might be I am just stupid. And weak. And out of time. And fashion. And whatever I can be out of. I can´t believe all you´ll become, I´ve become, is a telephone number to be cancelled on an agenda, a date to be barred on the calendar, a photograph to burn, a bad memory from the past, a bank account, an unpleasant noise, a shadow, a stone, an unanimated thing. A thing. I might be dealing with things my own way. But I have waited any single day in my life to meet someone who said loved me. And If is that all I am now, it makes me wonder it was worth it. Waiting, with my soul upon my lips. I think it was worth the trouble and was worth the pain. Yeah, I´ll do it again. No there is nothing like the end of love. It can´t swapped away from any single cell of mine, but when I´ll be talking to the fall leaves of the trees and the flowers, in springs. Way to spend a Sunday. In July, Francis. Any Month can be cruel. Don´t need a particular one. I do believe there is love in everything and everyone. Until I´ll be proven wrong. Until I´ll be convinced I´ve been proved wrong. That would be the day I´ll be sure that an existence is not worth being lived anymore, then. Yours, stefano #~#~#~#~#~#~#~#~#~#~#~#~#~#~#~#~#~#~#~#~#~#~#~#~#~#~#~#~#~#~#~#~ Everybody has been burned before; everybody knows the pain Anyone in this place can tell you to your face Why you shouldn't try to love someone Everybody knows it never works Everybody knows and me We know that door shuts just before you get to the dream you see I know I know all too well, how to turn and how to run How to hide behind a bitter lie with blue But you die inside when you choose to hide So I guess instead I'll love you I love you I LOVE YOU #~#~#~#~#~#~#~#~#~#~#~#~#~#~#~#~#~#~#~#~#~#~#~#~#~#~#~#~#~#~#~#~ +-------------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail sinister(a)missprint.org.

Sinister: Lawrence post-show shenanigans
by Thomas Tollefsen 04 Nov '03

04 Nov '03

Hey all, If short is the new long, then this post is going to be light years ahead of its time. Just wondering if anyone knows of any activities planned for after tonight's Lawrence show (as in members of our beloved group spinning records and dancing the night away). I missed the after-hours (er) after last year's Detroit show and have been kicking myself ever since. Any information would be greatly appreciated and hope to see some representation from the greater Jayhawk/Cornhusker Massive out in effect tonight! Putting on my dancing shoes and starting up the car, Tom __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? Protect your identity with Yahoo!

Sinister: Having coffe with Shirley Lee and other things that will make you happy
by a.s.t.r.i.d＠nme.com 03 Nov '03

03 Nov '03

Sinister, I am not sure if my last post even went to the right address so fractions might be already read by you lot. Sorry, in that case. A lot has happened. I had coffee with Shirley Lee, and saw them live and was at the front dancing in a really nerdish manner. But what the hell, who cared. And I dissed a guy, nicely, by starting the conversation with "So.. how old are you then?" "Oh, I'm underage!". Hehe. It was pretty funny. Anyways. It was a great gig and me, Amanda and, er, my mum (yes she was there because she needed to come in order for me to get in and I know - oh that's uncool but my mum is cool and i decided it was better to bring her and get to see a band I've loved since I was 13 than to sit at home sulking, being too cool). Anyways. It was a great night and I talked to them for ages afterwards and I was SO the girl who was friends with the band that night. it fell really nice, for once. Yay! Spearmint are deadly brilliant. I met Damien Rice too during his fantastic amazing mind-blowing, er, awesome gig on Wednesday. He sat one seat next to me during Pedestrian/Joel Shearer, the support, and when the lights came on I talked to him and he touched my left shoulder and it's a nerdy thing to remember but I will anyways because he is so beautiful it hurts and he was super nice to me. Sometimes I hate NME. Yeah I know, my e-mail, but this account was created when I was dumb and young. Anyways. NME. Yes. Did anyone else read that fucking terrible article on darlings The Thrills? The pervy one? The one in Amsterdam? With strippers, and bananas in places that'll make you go "Oh dear!" and the journo's intense wish to make the thrills some sort of hardcore crazy rock dudes? It sucked anyways, and it was terrible. Because before, you see, I was madly in love (or should we say: had a wee crush) on the keyboardist called Kevin Horan. Horan in Swedish means "The Whore". Not just "a whore" but "The Whore". I thought that was so awfully misguiding to his whole character, and basically, his name was "Kevin the whore". I felt really bad for him plus he is really cute and small, and silent. And then I read that fucking interview and that made everything come out in a totally different light. Something that's bad about The Thrills is that they sort of suck live, from what I've heard. They were on this tv show in Sweden, and Big Sur sounded much too thumpy, breathy and Conor Deasy sounded like someone was pinching his arse while he was singing. And Ben Carrigan, the otherwise sort of nice looking drummer, looks really constipated while playing. But I had noticed that before. I realized yesterday I have nowhere to meet nice guys. My school is really small, and no one listens to great music, it's more the gangster look that's in. I aim for the teachers. Ehh... (sound that's supposed to make you forget what I just wrote and make the last sentence ok). Seriously though, and I've written it before. The men at my school are boring and want boring people. It's the kind of people who'll ask you, when you arrive at school in your really cool home made t-shirt with some cool sentence on it, "What? What do you mean with that? I don't get it?" or read it out loud and in the end you wish you would've gone to school naked instead. Fab 5, or Queer Eye For The Straight Guy, is probably one of the best tv shows ever. I always laugh so much it hurts. Carson is the best one, he's the fashion guy. Conversation: Straight Guy: People tell me I look like Keanu Reeves sometimes Kyan (grooming guy): WOW! People tell me that too! Carson: People tell ME I look like Ellen DeGeneres. Which he actually does. ooh, here in the school computer lab I am being treated with the sounds of Sean Paul. Oh yeah. Er... Isn't there any nice guy not older than, er, like 23, that wants to move to Sweden and be my boyfriend? There is a major babe-dry here in the school. Whoa, I just wrote major babe-dry. HAHA. Can you tell I am tired? After this, I am meeting with Amanda in town and it's really cold outside and I am wearing the totally wrong outfit for the weather because I decided to be "naked" as we call it amongst my friends, when you wear like a really shirt skirt or some sort of not-suitable-for-the-weather clothing. I am a bit like that today, because I'm wearing a top which is, er, daring I guess. I feel a bit depressed though, because the only ones to give me approving looks was an old man on the subway (urgh), a weird guy who might have been drunk and anyways like 50 (!!!) and a really scary German teacher here at this school. he lives one apartment house away from mine, so we always meet. He is scary and Christian and short and compact and please please please make him go away because he's a bit of a perv. A young perv, but a perv none the less. Kings of Leon are coming here in the end of November. I've heard that they are the most women-obsessed band ever. They'll,er, have anyone. Me and Amanda are plannig on going there, wearing short skirts and then dis them if they say something rude. Oh my god. I am immature, a bit cheap and look for men 24/7. And damn, it feels good too. Astrid x --------------------------------------------------- Who would you rather be - Ted Danson or Kevin Costner? Fab: Who the fuck is Ted Dancer? Ted Danson. Fab: Oh, Danson.

Sinister: look at Mark C, he was on TV!
by The Hodottir 03 Nov '03

03 Nov '03

Well there I was Sinisters, Friday evening past. I was about to head out to a halloween party (I was the 'fallen angel' - black wings 'n' halo n'all), but first I thought I'd better line the old tum with a fried egg baguette and pre-beer cup of tea. As is my way, I was channel-hopping all over the place and finally settled on some kind of 'football focus' nonsense, when they start talking about MC Harvey from So Solid Crew and his new-found role as player for AFC Wimbledon... They're interviewing Harvey... ...interviewing some fans... .....interviewing SINISTER'S VERY OWN MARK CASAROTTO!!! Now I've only met/seen Mark once or twice, but I was in no doubt it was he. And how articulately he spoke of his approval of said MC joining the team. To summarise, he reckoned it was a *good thing*. Of course, none of my flatmates have a clue who he was, so I'm sitting there exuberating with a mouthful "[cough, splutter] Thatsch a guy off Schinishter!", and they're sitting in their pumpkin and red-riding-hood outfits and looking at me like I've lost the plot. So what else to do but email the spiritual home of Mr C and offer the recognition well-deserved. Even though you'd only have seen it if you'd been in London and watching at that very moment. Even though regular people are on TV all the time. Even though. It seems that sinisters, like the band themselves, are going public. They're even doing telly interviews! If only it'd been our Stu joining the team, the whole thing would have been wonderfully complete. I hope this hasn't been too boring for everyone, but I had to tell someone, and it wouldn't have been even half as relevant on the 'so solid' fanlist, now would it?

Sodastream were fantastic at Bush Hall last night. Possibly the best show I've ever seen from them.

Sinister: Chicago Concert Quick Report, The Sequel + an MP3 from the show
by leigh madflowr 01 Nov '03

01 Nov '03

i went to the "picnic" beforehand and met some lovely sinisterites at the pick me up cafe. i had cinnamon apple pancakes that everyone thought looked like sausage pancakes. i found a ticket to the show at cost (w/o nasty service fees). b&s were amazing, even if they looked tired up there. i was kind of scared, since my dc peeps told me that the show there was awful. during 'asleep on a sunbeam', it was said that sarah was the epitome of twee. to my left, a group of all boys and one girl yelled "HOTT!" every three minutes. i mean, we all know that b&s are an attractive group of muscians, however, this does not need to be noted every three minutes. anyhow, if i had to pick a favorite song of the night, it would be 'i'm a cuckoo' vs. 'the wrong girl (johnny cash style)', because it was oh so excellent. anyhow, i put up an audblog from the show (see below). just in case some of you do not have online journals/blogs, i'll tell you what an audblog is. it allows you to post audio to your journal by calling a telephone number. SO, basically, it can be fairly ghetto if yr trying to record a song, depending on how good yr phone connection is. anyways, here is an audblog of 'get me away from here, i'm dying': http://madflowr.livejournal.com/161365.html (from the chicago show @ the congress theatre) anyways, it was such a lovely time. i am so glad i went. thanks to laurel for oganizing the meet up and writing down the setlist! lala, leigh _________________________________________________________________ See when your friends are online with MSN Messenger 6.0.

Sinister: austin, texas show!
by Alyson Snowball 01 Nov '03

01 Nov '03

hi everyone, due to the overwhelming response of the texas sinister massive to my proposal for a meet-up, i. . . uh. . . actually, NO-ONE responded, so i guess it's not happening. hmph. i am still wanting to get together with you lovelies, so anyone that's looking for something/someone (ooh!) to do before/after the show, please contact me a.s.a.p. someone? anyone? bueller? bueller? i haven't been checking my sinister mail lately, so forgive me if something's already planned (and please let me know!). oh, and just in case you didn't know, there is a b&s after-party at emo's where richard and chris will be dj'ing. is an apostrophe appropriate in that word? i never know. it looks off, however "djing" looks silly, but so does typing in all lower-case, so i guess either way i'm looking silly (as per usual). yours truly, alyson _________________________________________________________________ See when your friends are online with MSN Messenger 6.0.
