Chris! <Chris> Yes Anne! <Anne> Why Stuart? <Chris> He hid my beans the other day and wouldn't tell me where he'd hidden it! <Anne> Has he hidden all your smart clothes as well? <Chris> ... <Anne> Well. When the votes are tied, the strongest link will have to cast the deciding vote, and that's you Chris. <Chris> I voted for Stuart but I think I'm gonna switch to Sarah, cos us boys have to stick together don't we? <Anne> Oh! Wellll Sarah, Chris doesn't want you to play because you are a girl, so you ARE the weakest link GOODBYE! * Sarah does the walk of shame (..Inside interview room) <Sarah> I am appalled by the blatant tactical voting, Chris voted me off because he knew that I was a stronger link than him and he just wanted to get rid of me.

Stevie, a trader who buys from producers and sells to retailers or consumers is more commonly known as a what-man? <Stevie> Legal Man! <Anne> No the correct answer is Middle man. Richard, The Original West End Production of which Andrew Lloyd Webber musical opened at the New London Theatre in 1981, starring Elaine Paige as Grizabella, and Brian Blessed as Old Dueteronomy? <Richard> Cats! <Anne> Correct! Chris, in cooking, black, chilli and soya are all different types of what? <Chris> Beans! <Anne> Correct! Bob, in music, the lyrics "Deep inside my soul fights a war. I can't explain, I can't cross over any more" was from a song by Elton John of what title? <Bob> Belfast! <Anne> Correct! Isobel.. <Isobel> Wiggly Piggy Bank! <Orchestra> DUM... DUM... DUM DUM! <Anne> The time is up, and in that round you have managed to bank £100... whose sewing machine is out of thread? whose IQ's below freezing? It's time to VOTE OFF, the WEAKESTLINK! <Jon Briggs> In the last round, Bob was the strongest link as he had banked the most money throughout the game, Isobel is once again the weakest link, but she did bank money for the team, will this fact save her from the votes? <Anne> Time's up, it's time to reveal who YOU think is the WEAKEST LINK! <Orchestra> DUM DUM DUM DUM...

Sinister: Attention Brisbane and Sydney listees ... advice sought
by Lawrence Mikkelsen 30 Sep '02

30 Sep '02

hello, and sorry to everyone who doesn't live in either Sydney or Brisbane. This is blatant list abuse. My wife vanessa and I are are heading over from New Zealand to Brisbane to see Morrissey at Livid, and I was wanting a few recommendations ... a) Aside for The Lucksmiths (who I love), what other Australian bands playing at Livid might appeal to a B&S/indie fan like myself. b) Which are the good record stores in Central Brisbane and Sydney. (ie. shops with good selection, lots of indie albums, imports etc.) I'm a big fan of Candle Records and need to stock up on a bit of back catalogue stuff, so anywhere that stocks that sort of thing would be appreciated. c) Is anything by The Sugargligers (Australian band from the early 90s) available on CD in Australia? Thanks ... Lawrence PS - anyone who feels like taking me on a tour of record stores in either of these cities and is willing to put up with a 27 year old music trainspotter for a few hours will have lunch/drinks bought for them :) +-------------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail sinister(a)missprint.org.

Sinister: carry me away from here...
by bus stoppers 29 Sep '02

29 Sep '02

...please? <a voice from the grey sky above>: alright. last night, i saw "spirited away". and so now, i can recommend it. please. go see it!! i am a new anime watcher, and i have only seen this movie and the neon genesis stuff. that boy that i think (thought) i like(d), and i went out last night. i cried the whole damn movie...such the girlie girl sometimes. the little girl in the beginning in the movie (i can't remember her name) reminded me of my a bit when i was little. i won't spoil it, but it brings back a bit of that stomach sinking feeling when you feel lost. or maybe just that little kid feeling when what is familiar is all of a sudden gone and you simply feel scared. i was a bit of an over-dramatic fraidy-cat back in the day, yo. plus it's funny. and super cute. also, to make amends and beg for forgiveness for my previous post. (rachel fruitloop has recently helped me to find that i can write haikus! :) so here is my 'amends'. i used to be scared... all the time, everyday. but now i'm happy! i want to also talk about something else that makes me feel like a human again. FinallY! bought the flaming lips, yoshimi battles the pink robots. i heart it so much. and i can't stop listening to it. this is basically the first i have heard of the flaming lips...<audience gasps>...but a co-worker informed me of some exciting new news for me. which means it's probably old hat for you guys. i guess, if i remember correctly, that they have like 4 albums that were created to be played simultaneously...? how beautiful is that? more good and loverly things to say... can you believe it? i was once told that it is hard to find the just a modern rock song ep thingie. but at work, my friend erika found it and ordered some up for us. i introduced her to b&s right before storytelling came out. i loaned her tigermilk and told her if she didn't absolutely love it, there was something wrong with her. a little tyranical? yes. a little truthful? yes. am i a snob now? how sometimes i find myself becoming one of those music-snobs. fuck. i hate that. and i love it. feeling so passionately about a subject that i have made so personal gives my opinions such pride and motivation. but like i am entitled to my opinion, so is everyone else that has bad taste... i guess i have temporarily returned from selfish-pity-party-land and have once again remembered what it is like to feel like a person. love and japanese-ish tear stained cheeks, sara ===== all the people'd stare as if we were both quite insane someday my name and his are going to be the same __________________________________________________ Do you Yahoo!?

Sinister: all the girlfriends I haven't had
by Gordon 28 Sep '02

28 Sep '02

*** off topic alert *** *** diaryesque alert -this man should get a blog *** end of disclaimers It's 00:58 here. That would make it nearly an hour into Saturday 28th September 2002. That's what day-meetings in psychiatric units begin with, read out by one person in the room to the circle of other patients, so that everyone gets a daily orientation point. I'm beginning to get the clarity of mind back together myself to dispense with such things, but it must be said that as of about a fortnight ago, the day or time was of diminished visibilty. As of two days ago I've been thanking god I have a diary, so that I can just about piece things together. My problem has for some time been an alcohol one and, whilst having read up a great deal about the symptoms of manic depression; enough to know that I get them, I am forced to conclude (well, after many to-ings and fro-ings to a variety of experts, the top expert at the Edinburgh Royal forced me to admit) that if I do indeed suffer these symptoms, then it is the result of a chemical imbalance from a chemical I swallow rather than a chemical imbalance resulting from the harshness of nature. And I sort of have the proof of that. I stopped drinking and, for six months or so everything was cool, and on the up and up. ...but then on a saturday, in the not too distant past... I was rounding the late afternoon off in a certain hotel bar. So far, it had been a magnificent day and, although the company I'd been keeping had just left, I fancied holding onto just a little bit more of the city atmosphere before heading home to my parents, in the country. I'd ordered a coke to drink. I like the barman there: we chat about architecture, and he knows some interesting bits and bobs about the subject. Enough to suggest that it might be a past-time of his to read up about it and so on. So I usually sit at the bar itself. It's also become my custom to relax with a cigarillo or ten, so I ordered a cigar to go along with the coke. However, there's some new European Directive that's come in, to the effect that smoking at the bar is prohibited. Obviously not one that's taken effect in all the other bars I know, but still... there were plenty of armchairs around and I was welcome to sit down and he'd bring my cigar over to me. Seated, I read, puffing away, sipping the coke. As I stashed out the final embers of the Davidos my thoughts turned to what to do next. By this time sick of the taste of the smoke and sick of the taste of coca cola and still not quite wanting to leave, I had a thought. I'll sit at the bar there, have a wee chat, and have a proper drink. Just this once, for old time's sake... Laphroaig, please! Coming right up! I was expecting to retch at sutch a strong taste assaulting my senses after such a long absence but no: it went down like water. In large, glorious gulps of water. The water of life. So I had another, and then left. At the station, I stopped to purchase a couple of those wee bottles of Traquair Ale, to enjoy back at home in front of the computer. Maybe I could have a bit more fun than usual on internet chat. In fact, I decide, once back at the ranch, everything's going swell: I'll make use of this dutch courage to throw a few ideas around that I haven't really been willing to raise when sober... This was a bad mistake, as it turns out. Maybe not irresolveable, I hope, but let's just say ... well I'd rather forget the episode. I'm making it sound rather over-dramatic here too. Anyway, there followed a fine enough Sunday and then to work for two days, but this time with a bottle of wine when I get home, cos, well, it's a bit of fun. There was nobody else at home for a week to see me uncork a bottle at the dinner table and, it must be said, there were still some unresolved issues in my mind from the Saturday. Maybe I could go on internet chat and cure those, in a relaxed, post-prandial fashion. I didn't, partially because I was now beginning to feel a mixture of paranoia and jealousy. I was also, quite possibly, beginning to mis-understand things a little. For someone who's been off the booze for a long time I suppose a bottle of wine's actually quite alot. I slept in Wednesday morning, so I 'phoned the office to take the day off, explaining. They know how long it takes me to travel there every day, so the idea that it might be a bit silly doing 5hrs commuting in order to be there for four hours or so is an eminently reasonable one. Then I go do something stupid. I wasn't under the influnce at this point, just high on the freedom of possibilities so ...through to Edinburgh, city of most of my favourite experiences of late. But what to do here in the middle of the day? Start a PARTY, of course, and I know a bar that consists of fast cars and dancing girls and guys you can chat with, all propped up around the wee old wooden bar, just like in a wild western whorehouse. The afternoon goes on, on, into night and as soon as you realise it the pianist at the Sheraton is thanking you for enjoying his music, he leaves, the folks around that bar are beginning to bore one and one is soon into a concierge-organised tour through the top hotels in Edinburgh. Of course! Nothing but the best for me. No room at the ..., but there's one at the ...: shall I order you a cab for there, Sir? But there is a booking error at that one (what kind of an error, exactly? one is aware of euphemisms: they result in paranoia, and I hate them ), so the man at the desk offers to phone around a few others, but he starts mentioning the names of establishments I don't recognize so I stop him there. 'Just check the... ' 'They've only got a suite, Sir' OKEY DOKEY! Order a cab, right away! So the next two days were spent living out of a mini-bar, padding around the rooms, gazing at the view, chuckling when I found that there were two bathrooms. Listening to music, reading from a book of Francis Bacon interviews... room service arrives, uncalled for, to re-stock the mini-bar (it has an electronic sensor in it which sends down to room service for the missing bottles, evidently). But would I call up anyone to say, 'come join me here'? Was I really enjoying all this absurd luxury? Nah. I was on the spirits, finding oblivion... thinking about stuff like Does anyone love me? Well, hey, that's a bit tin pan alley, says I back to myself. After all, my parents love me. Through everything they have made it so abundantly clear. I know some people have had the terrible misfortune of having one or other or both of their parents not loving them, or not demonstrating it enough or not even being there to be able to demonstrate anything at all. I have had 2no. parents all my life who have always loved me. For the sake of completeness on the family front my brother does too. Ditto grandparents (deceased), so: Does anyone else love me? The answer to that is no. There are a very few; a couple of old friends, maybe, who I don't really keep in touch with, for reasons of international distance, who are very fond of me, but ... I realise I asked the wrong question because the above is all, of course, about Platonic Love. Yeah, I knew it would take that next half bottle of gin to get to the point: Carnal Love. Maybe that's an expression I could use. Does anyone love me carnaly? Well, I sure don't think so. The problem with me in that respect is not than anyone loves me carnally at the moment. My problem is that I don't think any one has ever loved me in that sense. And at the age of 31 that really begins to bug one. It's enough to turn one to drink. Have I loved and lost via marriage? Nope. Have I loved and lost via some long term loving relationships? Nope. Have I loved and lost via one long term relationship? Nope. Does anyone like me carnaly? Does anyone fancy me? Not that I'm aware of it. Did anyone, ever fancy me? Well yes, they did. Quite a few. But that was a long, long time ago, when I got to meet plenty of girls. The only way I know how to meet plenty of girls now is in, hey, you might have guessed it: BARS. ...next bottle Do I know anyone who would come up and FUCK me, right now? nope. Ah well... So a few days later I'm back off the booze, and thinking of places to meet girls that doesn't involve bars... Of course there are possibly a few other places one could hang out. But really, I've tried quite a few of them and it really doesn't work for all sorts of reasons. Take for example, the 'special interest group': a gym, say, or a writer's group, or a fan club (that's not a dig at sinister, btw), or a political discussion group. How many of these things can you stand to go to before you really have to admit that a) you're not a thematic anorak and you're fed up doing the necessary tedious research to keep up with the scene; that b) you don't fancy anyone at any of them anyway? That, not least of all because all the eligible girls are out there, having fun, not stuck in some hired room. So I figure I'll just have to find away to hang around bars, tolerating the taste of cola. +-------------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail sinister(a)missprint.org.

Hullo all, this is my third post, so I'm getting in the swing of things now. Well, I need a bit of help, and thought this place might yield some answers. I'm a piano player studying Music As level, (I didn't want to put that s there I promise) and want to do "Life on Mars" by Bowie. Anyone got the score? Please, if anyone has they can choose the next Belle & Sebastian we're going to do at the next school concert. Also, here's a useless piece of advise: Never raise your hands to a child, it leaves your groin unprotected.

Sinister: sunday frigging picnic
by ian 27 Sep '02

27 Sep '02

2 mails in one day. i'm sorry. this one, however, is for the good of US ALL. err... well those of us who will be in london, englishland, over the weekend anyway. i was hoping somebody else would organise a picnic on sunday, for those moments in between chickfactor balls. or (for those who aren't going to bush hall) for that last chance to catch the september before it slips away and leaves us with only october to shivver through. nobody has done this so far, so i'll make a start. 2 o'clock. in a suitable park. how about st james's park? if it rains, we'll go somewhere else. i don't know london, and which parks are suitable for bush hall. if you have a better idea, take things from here and plan them yourself. no, i'm not being arsey, i really REALLY want you to do it. i am from the MIDLANDS, and therefore technically unqualified to do this anyway...go on, DO IT! okay, i have it on good authority that saint james's park is NICE, so that's a good place to start. if somebody can select a monument we can meet at, that would be nice. (err..it doesn't have to be a monument, actually. just something that's easy to find) if it rains, there will be a plan B, involving a PUB. perhaps somebody who knows that area would like to suggest one. so... 2 in the afternoon, somewhere in saint james's park, sunday. bring a frisbee, or some balloons, or just something wonderful* or, just bring yourself, and a smile (and a bottle, preferably). here is my telephone number. you can ring it, if you want to ask me what the fuck is going on (bear in mind that i don't always know what the fuck is going on. some would say 'never''. stop lauging, dimitra) or just if you want to sing me songs about cats: 07967 302614. DON'T email me for information, cos i'm leaving birmingham tomorrow, and heading south. email me to tell me stories and spread rumours instead. i know you can do that. so, like bongwater once said 'that's our manifesto, pencil in a date. let me know when something gives, i hope its not too late' not very relevant to this mail, but i do like that song. see you there. ian *examples of something wonderful: an amusing sex toy that we can all laugh at; a dancing elvis doll; a friend who nobody knows but has hidden secrets; a signed photograph of lorraine kelly; HARD DRUGS..oh no, scrub that bit. how untwee.. ps. gordon said: >I'm not sure I have more to say here but I suppose it would be decent to >offer an image of something; something dreamy... you are in a field in >spring; a high alp where the flowers are blossoming. The air is clear, and >the gods are calling down to you 'come hither, come hither'. You can see the >blue, deep blue wantonness of the whole world waiting to take you up in its >arms.... 'come hither, come hither' and if this isn't a sign that EVERYONE should turn up, i don't know what is. +-------------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail sinister(a)missprint.org.

Sinister: who took over Isobel's vocals?
by EvKatz＠aol.com 27 Sep '02

27 Sep '02

voAfter Isobel left the band, does anyone know who took over her vocal parts for live shows? I heard a show that had been on the radio that was from April 6, 2002, after she left the band, and someone is doing a pretty good job of it. Although some of the parts are a bit flat. Is it Sarah, or did they draft someone else?
