Sinister: Arguing
by MATTHEW M STEAD 16 Feb '98

16 Feb '98

Hey lets not argue, the world would be a far better place without it. Or would it... I guess it'd be a bit boring really. At least we'd get rid of Kilroy, Esther, Ricky Lake etc. That'd be nice.

I quite like Amnesia, it sounds better than the new Dubstar stuff but not as good as Manic Now. Any one else heard the Brick Supply version of that track? On another note is it just a malicious rumor or is Tubthumping actually about weebles? Richard Anderson ----------------------------------------------------------------------- .

Realise what's going on you say - and what makes you think that your local "indie" shop's any different from anything else - are they better people? So you say I should vote for my local independent shop as opposed to corporate whores Virgin. Well I've know people who've worked in both these and the people in Virgin don't have to put up with the boss flashing money around, telling everyone about his numerous properties and vehicles and how well off he is, and also don't have to deal with earning a lot less money per hour. It's never a pretty situation mate but it certainly isn't anywhere near the black and white picture you paint it to be. The other thing being that people belting on about New Labour being shite I find preposterous really, yeah, they can't do everything right, but they're sure as fuck the best government that's existed in my lifetime, why do we all convince ourselves that they're all corporate whores! Harold Wilson admitted to his cabinet in the sixties that labour party policy simply financially couldn't work, the fact that the party as whole in the late 90's has finally caught up is something to be admired in my opinion. ....Oops, sorry Paul, forgot... no more political debate... arse. Cheers, Keith. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- . This message was brought to you by the Sinister mailing list. .

Sinister: Chumbawumba

I was reading a message that mentioned that Chumbawumba were doing all this anarchist rubbish to get signed and seen. I agree completely. Does anyone else hate them, or the fact that Amnesia sounds exactly like Dubstar?! Yours agitated by Chumbawumba Matt. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- .

Sinister: White Horses?
by Andy Arnette 16 Feb '98

16 Feb '98

Got A Question... On a tape of 'Tigermilk' that I recently borrowed from a friend there is a song at the end with Isobel singing something about White Horses. Does anybody know what this song is? My friend claims it's a cover but is anyone familiar with the original? I don't have a clue but any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks, ANDY ----------------------------------------------------------------------- . This message was brought to you by the Sinister mailing list. .

Sinister: B&S in Dublin
by Joss Moorkens 16 Feb '98

16 Feb '98

Someone wrote th'following: Anyway we got around to chatting about B&S and she said sh had been in touch with Jeepster and she seemed to think that the band were playing over here in May. Is this true?? It looks as if there may be some B&S action in dublin, but not until the summer. July or something. At least from what I hear. joss ----------------------------------------------------------------------- . This message was brought to you by the Sinister mailing list. .

Sinister: Valentine schmalentines
by Claire Timmins 16 Feb '98

16 Feb '98

I went into work and my workmates mentioned that there were some Scots in the pub, thinking that this would brighten up the idea of spending 7 hours working behind a fucking bar. They were kinda right. It always makes me feel slightly better (sad homesick person that I am). Anyway one of the aforementioned Scots appeared at the bar and asked in a very broad Glaswegian accent, "Where are the toilets?", and low and behold it was Kevin whats-his-name from Small faces, Trainspotting etc. I just stuttered a lot and then wished I had spoken to him properly. Damn, I wish I had done. Someone else said that John Hannah was in as well, I never spoke to him either. I think my favourite B&S line is definately, " All I wanted was to sing the saddest song, and if you could sing along I would be happy now." But then again it could be.... ( Claire gets lost in every B&S song possible.) Keith, Airwolf. Just because of the guy's name... Stringfellow Hawk, was it? Can someone also recommend any good alternative Irish bands around just now? ciaosen, Claire** "Why can't I get just one kiss, Why can't I get just one kiss. Well I guess it's something that I wouldn't miss but I live my whole life for just one daaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay."

Sinister: Practically all B&S content! And it's really long too! can anyone else match this?
by Adam the fool 16 Feb '98

16 Feb '98

Rocker (?) Wrote (about tigermilk): >The value of the original copies will go down, > >The band will not get any royalties or share of profit. > >Surely it would be better for them to swiftly bring out a reissue, >(maybe on CD, so there's no problem differentiating new copies from >the original). They aren't gonna, 'cos the kudos of having a rare record which only *dedicated* fans can get hold of a recording of is much more valueable then any re-issue royalties (not necersarily money-wise either.) I don't think that it takes people a lot of effort to get hold of tigermilk, (thanks to andrew dean - mail him if you want onto his list) but I like the fact that I bothered and was rewarded. {sigh} {gaze skyward} {smug look in eyes} {rodents in pants} {cavorting} I wrote then Andy wrote: >>It's only fair, the rest of us need to catch up, and we could do this >>before people spend extortionate amounts of money on swapping >>videos... > >but money spent on videos / music must be disposable income anyway so >what does it matter what you spend it on. if it's not disposable income >and should be spent on food or bills or whatever then you are stupid. Shit. I thought I was getting thin. And it is a bit dark. Disposable income isn't something to throw away, thats like saying that you might as well buy one 399p single in virgin as four 99p ones in an independant shop. (And virgin are just as much the corporate whore as new labour, so support students and vote indy - even if most students are too selfish/stupid to realise whats going on. I'm with Sarah if you couldn't tell. But she probably makes more sense.) If I want to buy an album I have to go without protein for weeks I'll have you know. Oh yeah, and what is your problem with stupidity? Not only must I adore the Lovin' Spoonful, detest the nme and know everything ever about Northern Soul, I have to show signs of inteligence as well... Well there's only so far a guy will go for his art. But back to my point; Katrina, why not release the ep video's? Maybe as a limited edition list thing, cos you know we all love you. Once you have enough material to fill a whole tape of course... Also - how many Ink books has Stuart D sold? Is he now fabulously rich as well as stunningly handsom (girls all over the list prick up their ears:) and will Stuart M ever be releasing his stories about Belle and Sebastian (no, let me guess - they're all in his songs.)
