Here's a quick question:
I read somewhere that Tigermilk was definitely being rereleased either
this year or next. Is this true?? I know there've been discussions and
possibilities, but I'd never heard of anything final.
Cheers & love,
Stephanie

Is anyone else going to the bluesoda social tonight? I just stumbled
across http://www.totalweb.co.uk/bluesoda/social.htm and realised that
I have another chance to make up for my picnic no-show.
I expect I will recognise the evil twins of corporate whoredom D&K
from their previous incarnation as glum crime victims behind the stall
in Manchester.
I assume previous tirades against cliques apply, and I won't be
shunned. Or at least not until I've started talking and given people
good reason to shun me.

Funny, I've always thought of them as Stripped-down Italian Speedcore.
Have been listening to the wrong band?
A confused listee
P.S. Yes, I stole this from a HMHB song.

Hello there
on String Bean Jean, according to the lyrics I got from the Sinister homepage, there's a
part where it goes like this:
And we always have a laugh and then we all get in the bath
To save on the *leccy bill*
Me & Jo & Phil'
(...)
And when Jo was short of cash I had to give her some
But I didn't really mind cause I was fit for once
So she paid the *leccy bill* and got the shopping and she still had
Some for the cinema
So we all went out
Ok, so I think "what the hell is a leccy bill?"
I went to Merriam Webster's Online Dictionary and it seems they never heard of the word
"leccy"... :-(
But, of course, someone from the Sinister List will easily enlighten me... right? :-))

would y'all describe B&S? I came up with Indie - folk - pop last night,
which didn't seem to impress the three skate dudes that we'd picked up..

If you think that one's good, try the drunken Baby Cha-Cha (for it is he),
located at: http://www.geocities.com/Tokyo/9418/bdrunk.avi

one bizarro WWW link?)

Oh, I loved it to pieces, not least because when it was first shown here
in Summer '95, I was in a very Brian Krakow-esque situation (infatuated
with a girl, did whatever I could for her, got treated like crap by her,
ignored the advances of another girl, etc. Oh, and the bad hair :)

I'd drag my carcass along to just such an event. Count me in.

hello all
Is anyone else pathologically unable to delete sinister e-mails
without reading them, no matter how many they have to catch up on.
I have just read 12 DIGESTS IN A ROW. AT WORK. I deserve to be
sacked. Has anyone here got caught sinistering during work hours?
Was it embarrassing?
I am ashamed to have missed the London picnic for no good reason. I
actually got as far as getting on the bus with food and everything,
but then stopped off to get a film for my Super-8 camera and then went
into Virgin and bought the new PE album and then made some excuse
about the weather and went home instead. Bah!
Some things:
Whilst I was away, super-kind listee John Johnston wished me happy
birthday. This prompted a minor birthday thread - see how I shape the
list even when not here (there?). My birthdate (010573) is the
198415th place of pi, you know.
Martin pondered:
>In "Hurley's Having Dreams", there's a reference to Hurley dreaming
of >the time when he was a horse in Czechoslovakia. Could it be that
>"Hurley" is the song Judy "wrote" about a dream of horses? And
maybe >she wrote about a "horse in Czechoslovakia" because she was
reading a >book by a Czech author (although he wrote in German)? And
maybe >that's why there's a woman on the front of IFYS reading The
Trial?
And there was I thinking Martin was a grown-up civil servant who had
grown out of such convulted over-analysis of pop songs. Hooray that
he isn't!
And Tim worried:
>Eek! It's just occurred to me that it might be a bad thing to buy
>secondhand promo copies of records, since the artists don't get any
>cash money as a result. Oh, the moral maze of modern living.
Did you know that evil godfather of soulless country Garth Brooks
actually took this idea seriously - he lobbyed for legislation in the
US outlawing the sale of secondhand CDs. As far as I know he was
laughed out of court. How greedy can you get? Where's Northy when we
need an impassioned defence of corporate avarice?
Can I second the Rodster's recommendation for the Black Box Recorder
single "Child Psychology"? Speaking as Psychology graduate (oh yes!),
the title track is perhaps a bit preposterous, but the B-sides are
wonderful. Especially the cover of "Seasons in the Sun". It's been
too long since there's been a female singer unafraid to be posh. How
great is the way she intonates 'hour after hour after hour' on "Girl
Singing in the Wreckage"? Umm... very great.
And Kenickie's version of "Save all your kisses for me" made me cry.
I think I might be getting into indie music again.
Love,
Nick (who was planning to beome nicky, but a nickie has come along and
spoiled my poncey plans)

I've just visited the Baby page of Honeygrrrs site in my lunch hour (cos I'm sad, have no friends and no life), and would just like to congratulate Paul on that excellent animated graphic at the top of the page. I took absolutely no interest in the baby pictures at all, just sat watching dancing baby for oooh ten minutes say.
Smashing Super Great.
Aydreeun.
