Sinister: TIGERMILK REGISTER
by ben ferneyhough 03 Nov '97

03 Nov '97

My mate Paul has a copy, and I've had it in my sweaty palms, and played it on my stereo, with it's new turntable. It was ace. He bought it from a shop in London, it now lives in Oxford, and he paid the massively inflated and ridiculous price of #195, yes, he's the one !!! It was sold over a 'phone auction' so no-one except the shop owner knew what anyone else bid. There were about 20 bids put in, but no-one was stupid enough to beat Paul's #195. It is in mint condition though, and looks beautiful. How many does that make then ? Are we up to 0.1% yet ? Ben. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- .

Sinister: Selling out???
by Laura Hamilton :) 03 Nov '97

03 Nov '97

Hi guys, Well I've only been a member of the mailing list for a day and already I feel rather confused at all the goings on that I've picked up from the letters I have received already. Obviously I don't want to alienate myself with anyone, like everyone else I am here because BandS are a band I've finally found who seem to know what wavelength I am on -Poor Souls!! I'm afraid I don't have the beautiful way with words (or insults) and I don't want to aggravate anyone, but surely you can't say that a band signing deals, playing paid gigs etc is a method of selling out! Not sharing music that has been so lovingly nurtured with a wider audience of people is surely a much greater sell out. I mean you can't tell me artists must select their audience, limit it and even keep his/her work private, which, lets face it, without financial backing is what generally happens! Music should be available to the masses, you can't penalise certain types of fan for their flippant attitudes towards bands compared to the 'true followers' ("we were there at the very beginning"). just because some people don't devote their lives to a bands following,but instead discover them due to the hype (and yes I realise that bands being hyped is nothing but greed on the companies part), is it not better that the music has found someone else to touch. Music is not a status symbol, it's an expression of how someone feels, and if other people connect with it all the better. Music is about putting your finger on that one thought inside you couldn't quite place, that feeling that you couldn't describe that someone else has taken, moulded and put words and music to. Selling out is not getting your work noticed and rewarded (where would we be if artists could only work create part-time, with a job to finance themselves?). Selling out, in artistic terms is when their work is no longer for the good of the masses but for the masses of goodies. Thanks for listening, Laura :) xxx ----------------------------------------------------------------------- . This message was brought to you by the Sinister mailing list. .

Sinister: Saropoly
by Steve Genge 03 Nov '97

03 Nov '97

Ok, the story of Saropoly - Once upon a much maligned record label in Bristol known as Sarah Records decided for their 50th release they would do something a little different and created their own board game. Well folded paper & card counters game to be exact & in this game you were the head honcho of various "indie" labels (4AD, Creation, Factory Virgin) & your task was to make a Sarah 7" EP complete with poster, wrap around sleeve & plastic bag. This you did by speeding around various locations on the board based on Bristol. Further rules can be explained but frankly it's way past my bedtime. Everyone bought two copies one to play with & the other to clutch fondly to their indie pop hearts. I think I've played it twice, never one & also had the indignity of having to be Alan McGee :o) Maybe a new version could be devised where you play an NME "journalist" or photographer & you following top pop band around various Glasgow locations. The winner being whoever gets the most bitter, twisted & pompous by the end of the game? Apologies if you've already seen half this posting but I'm convinced my crappy computer ate it earlier? ----------------------------------------------------------------------- .

Re: Sinister: TIGERMILK REGISTER

TIGERMILK count just to let you know I'm keeping my fingers busy in a responsible manner: Definite spottings: jj (1), Steve (1), David and Katrina (2), Mark Jones (3), Stef (1), Simon (1), Peter (1) "Last seens": Jennifer from Austin, Texas who one the competition (1), and 25 slimey journalists who probably left them on radiators. So thats a total of 10 with 26 possibles. 1%. Nearly there. Has anyone HAD a cold which has left them struggling between a bed and a sofa for 2 weeks? I've got extentenuating circumstances (don't start me as I'll bore you to tears: Peter Miller made that mistake..:) but this is getting ridiculous. Finally PLEASE use my search engine on the WWW pages and make my time lying around on a sofa worthwhile. Even if you're just going to search for rude words in people's postings. In fact this is the best use probably: spotting who swears most in email. You can even search for rude *phrases* now. http://www.majordomo.net/sinister/cgi-bin/sinister-search.cgi Paul ----------------------------------------------------------------------- .

Sinister: Belle, Sebastian and the Pastels
by Walter 02 Nov '97

02 Nov '97

I've just read this in a french fanzine (Crême Anglaise, there's also an interview of Stuart David and Chris Geddes in it...) Stephen, of The Pastels, is answering a question about his hobbies : " I'm working in a library. I'm doing some writing also. I'm actually qoing to do a book with Stuart Murdoch of Belle and Sebastian. We're going to tell the story of Glasgow music from Orange Juice. It may be a book, but it will probably end up as a pamphlet! To both of us Orange Juice was a really important thing. We are very close to each other in Glasgow, we have so many things in common..." Well, I guess you already knew everything... It's just my modest contribution to the mailing-list...

Sinister: Celebrating Sarah

Matthew wrote: >On one Monday in this month of November 10 years ago, the Sarah label was born. It lasted 8 years while >being nothing but abused by indie snobs and the NME. I think we should celebrate this day. We could organize a Saropoly on-line tournament (am I the only one who bought Saropoly on this list?).:-) Idea #2: starting every Monday morning with Another Sunny Day's "I'm in love with a girl who doesn't know I exist".

Sinister: NME article
by Paul Mitchell 01 Nov '97

01 Nov '97

For those of you not out having a good time on a Saturday night, but staying in and sniffing, if there's anyone else out there with the same interests as me :) ... I just had the privilege to read last week's NME "interview" with B&S and laughed my socks off. I think it's disgraceful that a band such as B&S should not show due respect to the people who put them there, the creative artists who run the literate and sophisticated music press of this country. As a measure of protest against the band's appalling behaviour I will be shutting down this mailing list until they apologise in person.
