R: Sinister: Beautiful Isabella
by Giuseppe Gregorini 16 Jan '98

16 Jan '98

Isabella Rossellini (that's the correct spelling) is an actress, model and many other things (not least she's Roberto Rossellini and Ingrid Bergman's daughter) but not a singer. In an interview she admitted it was her first time, but she didn't exclude other experiences. I can't remember quite well, but maybe she sings in "Blue Velvet".

Non B&S, but I know there are some tindersticks fans here and if you can't ask someone Sinister, well, who can you? I'm sure there are several other people. The Tindersticks' song with Isabella Rosalini makes me wonder if anyone else here knows if ol' Issy's done any other singing. I know the 'sticks wanted Ms. Rosa specifically because she *wasn't* a singer, but she does it well, and charmingly too. Perhaps Isabellandsebastian Rosalini could replace Monica's portion of LLPJ? For some reason I don't think that would fly... Besides, though I think I'm the minority here, I actually LIKE Monica Queen's addition to the song! ----------------------------------------------------------------------- .

Sinister: Sex! Yeah! No B&S content! well, a PBS reference...

Amanda wrote: >The people who have the most sex are those who have some college education >but are not college graduates, the survey found. People who have graduate >degrees are the least likely of all to frequently have sex. Great, and here I am applying to grad schools... Question here: Is it possible to obtain the sheet music for any b&s songs (specifically I'm looking for "Seeing Other People" and "Fox in the snow"). I know the guitar chords are listed on the web pages, but that doesn't help much if you want to try playing the piano bits. Anyone with a keen ear for music who would be able to translate them to notes? I tried, but with no success. thanx, kim P.S. A big THANK YOU to Amanda for sending me a TM tape! Haven't stopped listening to it since (driving my co-workers mental in the process). thank you x1000!!! ----------------------------------------------------------------------- .

Sinister: Sex! Yeah! No B&S content! well, a PBS reference...
by Amanda Bergman 16 Jan '98

16 Jan '98

unless you have some sort of overtly sexual sex/B&S thing going on, which is entirely possible... in any case. More reasons to drop out of school! And more reasons to watch PBS, even though the B&S session seems to be a moot point now. The following article appeared in our uni's daily newspaper today, and I found it most amusing. So here it is for any of you who might be interested: -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- -------------------- More time in school means less time in bed, study finds (Television watchers, jazz enthusiasts, Jews and agnostics are the most sexually active, the University of Chiacgo study shows.) If you want to get the most sexual pleasure out of life, drop out of college[=university]. That's the suggestion from a new study of sex habits to be published next month in American Demographics magazine. The nationwide survery of 10,000 people found that the greater their educational attainment, the less sex they had. The people who have the most sex are those who have some college education but are not college graduates, the survey found. People who have graduate degrees are the least likely of all to frequently have sex. Michael Bailey, a Northwestern associate professor who teaches Human Sexuality, said he ws somewhat surprised at the survey results. Men with lucrative jobs, such as doctors, lawyers, and businessmen have the most sexual partners because women are attracted to men with high earning potential, Baily said. But men with Ph.D.s may not be so lucky. "The Ph.D. effect for men when they're in graduate school--it's not a high-status position," Bailey said. "And when they've graduated, they don't make as much money as people with lesser degrees" such as MBAs, making them less attractive. Lyle Davis, a Northwestern graduate student who is married to a Kellogg Graduate School of Management graduate, said business students do seem to have more active social lives than students in other graduate fields. "Most graduate students are single and not dating," said Davis, 25. "They're involved in their studies pretty intensely, so they wouldn't be so active." Dropping out of school, however, is not the only way to increase your sexual activity. The survey found that people who work long hours and watch a lot of television are more sexually active than average. The best channel to watch: PBS. "Who would have thought that National Geographic specials or Ken Burns' history of baseball could get people in the mood?" the survey said. Jazz enthusiasts are 30 percent more sexually active than the average person, the survey found. Liking other types of music, such as rock, seems to be unrelated to sexual activity. While Catholics are slightly more active than Protestants, both Christian groups are 20 percent less active than Jews or agnostics. People who identify themselves as liberals have a higher sexual frequency than moderates or conservatives. "Extreme liberals" are most sexually active. However, sexual activity is also above average for "extreme conservatives." Apparently, people who are passionate about politics are passionate about other things, too. The survey was conducted by social scientists at the University of Chicago. As for their own sexual activity? Dumb question. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ------------------------- ------------------------ Amanda Bergman Northwestern University a-bergman(a)nwu.edu "How do I offend you, when I only mean to put beauty in my mind and not my mind in the beauty?" --Sor Juana Ines de la Cruz ----------------------------------------------------------------------- .

Sinister: matador deal info release
by David & Katrina 16 Jan '98

16 Jan '98

you may be wondering what we've been up to if we can't even give you the info first as we always promise to, well, we will! except in this case the matador deal, although in it's final phases of being done, can not yet be classed as a 'signing' or 'done deal' as the band's signatures havn't yet been scrawled across the bottom of the ever important contracts. so yes, matador look like they've clinched the us deal, but... ...we'll let you know exactly when this is confirmed beyond doubt, up until then the deal is near finishing, but not yet completed. an official release will follow at the time when it is confirmed by the band (having signed), and jeepster having confirmed the action of passing the contracts back. david & katrina on behalf of the fanclub and jeepster records (for the first time in ages). -- ******************************************************************** Belle and Sebastian Fan Club merchandise, mail-outs, chat, lyrics, poetry, fiction http://www.totalweb.co.uk/bluesoda/ mailto:bluesoda@totalweb.co.uk ******************************************************************** ----------------------------------------------------------------------- .

Sinister: Multiple mails (again) and fascism
by Honey 16 Jan '98

16 Jan '98

OK - veterans of the list (the ones who can remember the broccoli debate, say) will also remember this happening before. For some reason I can't fathom, a remote mailer goes bad and repeatedly throws back mails from the list TO the list, which bounce back to the remote mailer ad infinitum. Good plan. The tell-tale sign is multiple footers. Personal mail to/from the site wasn't affected last time. Words fail me as to the remote mail software that can be so stupid as to do this, if indeed my diagnosis is correct. If anyone has a clue about how this happens please mail me (once). The offending remote mailer was "webtv.net" (ho ho). What a surprise, not a Unix/sendmail location. Thanks to people who alerted me. I saw this late on last night, stamped on the heads of the subscribers from WebTV (who I am copying this too and must emphasise is highly unlikely to be their fault - it's their ISPs), and made mails from this location "taboo" on the list to stop the bouncy-bouncies. I can't tell which of the two WebTVers caused it so I'm afraid I've had to remove you both. Am happy to experiment privately with you for a limited period and in a controlled way that people on the list won't see - we can do this - mail me. But, to be honest, last time we didn't find a solution so, erm, if anyone else has any experience of this please let me know. Life is short, I still love you all, and sorry for the hassle. Two more things: STOP SENDING UNSUBSCRIBES/SUBSCRIBES TO THE LIST! Can I write this any bigger? Read my FAQ on the WWW pages. This is a B&S list. I hope you have all changed your middle names by now. Please keep a focus - sure talk about other bands but let's not go off in a spiral. Let's not have any more "Radiohead are crap/good" stuff - I mean, lord, I have strong opinions about this and if I can keep schtum so can you :) Just because it's not very entertaining. If you're going to post, please: 1. Either (a) talk vaguely about B&S, Murdoch's underpants, Glasgow or who we like to listen to; or (b) post something very very funny about your nose - funniness overrides the need for relevancy but you have to have a certificate in rib-tickling. Oh and swearing's good too. Tag, Susannah, Keith, Peter Miller and Chris Leonard have carte-blanche to post stuff about their hamsters because they make me giggle. They have earned their spurs. 2. Don't slag off people. I get angry at this. Be nice. Mailing lists often degenerate into mindless boring feuds. Stating strong opinions is fine, in fact a necessity, so don't think I want to make this the Magic Roundabout. 3. Don't quote a huge message and then say "Yeah". Take some time to use your editor. 432 are receiving it the other end so make it easy to read. 4. Remember who speaks for who. I speak for no-one but me - nothing to do with the record company or fanclub although they are chums. David also doesn't speak for the record company. Katrina sometimes does and sometimes doesn't. They are both doing a wonderful job so send them flowers every day please. 5. Don't tell me I'm a git. Remember the mailing list is run on borrowed resources from my employer, in my spare time. If it explodes into something too big it might have to go one day so that I keep my job. It needs a focus. Some of you will not agree with this and indeed hate me, but let's just watch and see. 6. Keep posting. Don't let me put you off. Do it now. Right that's me off your birthday presents list. I'm off to practice being Mr SweetnessAndLight again. Dina will now take over as Hit Man. Be afraid. HoneyGrump -- Smithers, release the hounds. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- . This message was brought to you by the Sinister mailing list. .
