Sinister: chewed to a pulp
by Runegg 07 Apr '98

07 Apr '98

Hi, So there I was, innocently reading the village voice, when I come across this b.s. about B/S, in the middle of a worshipful review of Pulp: "Belle and Sebastian might be the hot Morrissey clones of the day, but Pulp beat them soundly in terms of craft, as well as that old milk of human kindness." huhwhat? fight the power, and all that. --Ari ----------------------------------------------------------------------- .

Sinister: A Hodge Podge of Things

(welll i will in just a wee bit) G, you're the best! That's it, we're going to write a script for our own tv show, starring absolutely everyone here. Yes, even you shy ones in the corner must have a cameo or two. I had this happen twice in high school, once with a darling Australian, and the 2nd time with a French boy who gave me nasty looks as he smoked Gitanes in the basement hallways. Anyone ever dream of running into the love of their dreams on public transit? Last year I was waiting for the subway, listening to my walkman and wrapped up in daydreams as usual, when all of a sudden a Cute Boy tapped my arm. I thought I must be in a John Hughes film! He asked what I was listening to. "Nick Drake", said I. "Who are they?" asked he. Then my heart sank and I knew it was not to be. I had my B&S mix-tape on the walkman today, actually, and when LLPJ came on I wanted to jump up and get everyone to linedance... Erm, thanks to everyone who's written about the Toronto picnic-- I'll set up a mailing list for us to sort things out. I would also like to add, you all get a mention in my memoir for ACTUALLY WRITING BACK TO ME instead of the list. In fact, I've seen none of that business on Sinister yet. Impressive! Which leads me to the misery I am experiencing at the thought of missing a picnic in Glasgow. Bethie (the arzy one!), let's quit our jobs and run away, shall we? A little secret: I've decided I need a holiday, and it must be done. Aiming for June, we'll see. I've settled on Glasgow and thereabouts, for I've not been since 1995 and miss it terribly. Everyone there, please invite me to tea? I know I've only been here a few weeks, but already I've gotten to know so many of you (esp. on irc) and it's dead cool. Holly may sneak along in my suitcase, though if they charge me excess baggage fare I'm afraid she'll have to cough up for it. One last thought: when listening to B&S, are you inspired to cook anything in particular? Perhaps everyone's not like me, but I tend to reach for the mixing bowls instead of a guitar. Things I have made with them as soundtrack: -- apricot buttermilk scones -- blueberry waffles w/ fruit salad & whipped cream -- roasted garlic, tomato & basil soup -- the infamous caramel brownies Note the tendency towards desserts! It differs. For example, when I have the soundtrack to "les parapluies de cherbourg" on (which I mention as I've been talking about it w/ someone), I tend to get rather gourmet and make portobello mushroom-white wine crescents. sweet tooth elisa xx (a.k.a. petula) ----------------------------------------------------------------------- .

Well, just to set a few things straight: bethey and jon g. are not snogging. bethey is the girl in Expectations and jon g. is the boy in Get Me Away From Here, I'm Dying, so they are just good friends, to use a very good cliché. >Jon.g and Bethey for president!

Sinister: Chekhov's terribly dry for a young lad full of the joys of spring.
by babyblu＠gold.globalcafe.co.uk 06 Apr '98

06 Apr '98

Yipee, first real day of spring! Chekhov put it best I think, "...everything was in blossom, it was warm and there was sunsine everywhere....When I woke up this morning and saw the great blaze of light and knew that spring had come- I felt so happy and excited, I felt I just had to go back home to Moscow." Relevance? Oh ok then, substitute Dumfries or something for Moscow if that makes it more Belle&Sebastian. A wise person wrote... "'Sleep the clock around' or 'Slap my cock around' as I call it." Yes! What a fantastic idea! Semi-amusing and gratuitously filthy song titles rule! Why stop there? why not re-name the band "Bell-end Sebastian" and have done with it?. Sorry. Complaints to the usual address.... Also I'd like to extend an open invitation to all list members based in or passing through London to come and spend a Saturday night at the club I work at "Lava Lounge," in Camden Lock. It's basicaly your bog-stand mod/sixties Blow-Up rip-off kinda thing but Hey! the Tequila's cheap and y'know you might meet somebody who really loves you and all that jazz. Jon.g and Bethey for president! Stay lucky, Rory xxx ----------------------------------------------------------------------- . This message was brought to you by the Sinister mailing list. .

The sad part is, I actually went and looked them up in the Rough Guide to Rock to try and find some more obscure titles, but it wasn't to be, I'm afraid. While we're on the subject of children's telly, does anyone else remeber the Blue Peter report about how they made the sleeve for "Bloody Tourists"? Not quite up to the standards of the elephant pooh incident, but it seems to have stuck in my mind anyway. They stuck the map onto a mask, it wasn't a windy day or anything like that.

Sinister: Yo La Tengo
by John Bleasdale 06 Apr '98

To whoever was asking about YLT records, a good album to get would be "I Can Hear the Heart Beating as One". Autumn Sweater is one of my all time favourite songs by anyone, ever. Also, does anyone know an aproximate date for the new Delgadoes album? Can't stop playing the new single. John ----------------------------------------------------------------------- .
