Sinister: Rough Guide anecdote
by unknown＠example.com 13 Oct '97

13 Oct '97

Here is some background information on the B&S entry for The Rough Guide. I assume that you are talking about the Penguin book that came out last year. Well, 2 Summers ago I received a call from a friend trying to make it as a journalist/writer in London. He just got his first freelance job..... writing entries for a new A-Z book to be called 'The Rough Guide To Rock'. The assignments were divided according to genres. So 1 writer got all the punk from '76 onewards. Another had British indie music of the 80s. Someone else covered Goth. Prog rock from the 70s and 80s were given to one person. And so on. So if a 2nd updated edition is published, the B&S will probably go the writer specializing in UK non-mainstream indie music. As B&S have received nothing but favourable coverage in the NME/MM and many SOTW awards this year; one can safely assume that they will be included. As for my friend, he got his pick of US Heavy Metal and Hard Rock artists. I remember providing info and advice for Jane's Addiction, Guns 'n' Roses, Soundgarden, Pearl Jam and Nirvana. I proofread his articles trying to persuade him to curtail the "Kerranngg-school-of-journalism" approach. He failed to listen and now writes for Metal Hammer magazine. By the way, I will happily defend the merits of early Iron Maiden, Def Leppard's "Pyromania", Dave Lee Roth's debut and mid-period Metallica. They are all part of my musical exploration and appreciation with no "style bibles" to guide me. I am at ease with having 'Master of Puppets' on the a-side of a tape and 'The Queen is Dead' on the b-side. Mussadiq. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- .

Sinister: arse
by Andrew Dean 13 Oct '97

just spent my dinner hour on the bus into town and back. it took 1:15 which is 30 mins more than i have for lunch. bet hey, new b&s single out today so... except virgin didn't have any in so it was a completely wasted trip. spoke to the bloke who commented on my t-shirt last time i was there (he didn't seem to recognise me though) and he said that it was due in (they had a whole 5 copies ordered) but they hadn't got it, maybe tomorrow. 5 copies? i wanted 3 myself... and there were literally hundreds of copies of the damn spice girls single on the shelves there. same with woolworths where it looked like the spice girls was the only new single released this week. oh um. still, it means i get to have wensleydale and apple sandwiches from boots instead of the stuff that passes for food in the machines here at work... andy ----------------------------------------------------------------------- .

Sinister: Sorry
by Neil Hargreaves 13 Oct '97

13 Oct '97

Oops... I just wrote and replied to the Seymour Stein question and just noticed Keith W already had (and much better than I did) so sorry... Oh yeah and the Suede B0Sides album is really good and its interesting how some of the early ones sound quite DogManStaresque even before Dog Man Star if you know what I mean... PS Im pretty sure Belle and Sebastian smoke, they stopped for a fag break at their gig in the QM Union here in Glasgow and Sarah asked the people at the front if we had a light- I'd lost my lighter at the time but ah well never mind. cheers, Neil -------------------------------------------------- ----------------------------------------------------------------------- .

Sinister: David & Katrina may soon dissappear for a short while
by David & Katrina 13 Oct '97

13 Oct '97

Hiya, we're currently having hell with our machine, this is a BIG problem for us as it's our only link to you lot and we're strapped for the cash to fix it. Should our Monitor pack up again, or should we accidentally turn the machine off (now it's on we're trying not to turn it back off!), we'll appear to have deserted you. If anyone is trying to get in touch with us and we appear not to answer, then send your mail to jeepster.uk(a)virgin.net as we may still be able to get it via that. Orders via the on-line thing will still be safe as they are collected via file transer elsewhere. All of the above does not currently apply, but should we dissappear it will. Thanks David & Katrina and the Belle and Sebastian fan Club. -- ******************************************************************** http://www.totalweb.co.uk/bluesoda/Belleandsebastian.htm mailto:bluesoda@totalweb.co.uk ******************************************************************** ----------------------------------------------------------------------- .

Have just missed my first lecture due to listening to new EP. I really don't think I'm going to be able to move from my computer(with CD) for this afternoon's lecture. Must withdraw my membership from bored at Uni club. Which was written first Fakers or Elvis ?

Sinister: 3, 6, 9
by Keith Watson 13 Oct '97

13 Oct '97

Fantastic.... Fan - tastic... That's Malcolm McDowell's reaction to a photo of an African Soldier when it's shown to him by his mate in "If...". It's also what I'm thinking about 3, 6, 9 seconds of light. "Put the book back on the shelf" is the only one I don't already know (Well apart from Paul playing it at the Egg a few weeks ago) and it's brilliant to get surprised by yet another superb track. It actually fucked up my tremendous score at Tetris at lunchtime, never mind. Cheers, Keith. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- .

Sinister: happy happy...
by Kate Dornan 13 Oct '97

13 Oct '97

Walked into the Vinyl Exchange today... and what should be playing but the LLPJ CD! It was Photo Jenny at the time... then along comes Elvis and I suddenly forgot all the words- thus losing a chance to recite them all as I flicked through the tapes and show off my innate musical taste and knowledge :) - ah well there's always next time <g> Just a happy little moment in a normal little day... I defend my posting of it with the fact that it's more damn related than some of the stuff you older&wiser people send *smile* Off to rent a video now and finish letters [to two members of this list as it happens!]... keep on lovin', ppl... Oh, and a friend and I listened to a song we wrote ages ago today..........and realised it was *really* B&S... dammit.... talk about pre-empting influences! This happen to anyone else? love Kate xxx "no harm can come to me when i'm in your company" ----------------------------------------------------------------------- .
