Sinister: and also ...
by Lawrence Mikkelsen 30 Jun '06

30 Jun '06

whilst I'm howling like a beagle in a wind tunnel, let it be said ... a) "Let's get Out of The Country" by Camera Obscura is a work of utter, utter genius. Not only that, but you won't hear a better single than "Lloyd, I'm Ready To be Heartbroken" this year. Or eveer, possibly. b) Also, for anyone for whom the news may have slipped by, there is a new Sodastream album. I was blissfully unaware until I saw it in JB Hi-Fi a few weeks ago on the previously-mentioned trip to Melbourne. c) And finally, I learnt something interesting about myself last night. You see, a few days ago I deleted an entire weeks worth of un-backed-up work from my computer. Last night, in a frantic rush I recreated 37 hours worth of work in about seven or eight hours. Which means I must spend four-fifths of my normal work day pissing around like crazy, right? Alright ... this is the lone voice in the wilderness, over and out ...

Sinister: freedomfest and harpers ferry
by davie kerr 20 Jun '06

20 Jun '06

alrighty there! it's almost 9.30am on a tuesday mornin' and im currently stuck behind a desk in a frickin freezin IT cupboard so lets get this slackin started. i was wondering if any of you fine Stateside Sinister Peeps ventured along to the Freedom Fest in Starks, Maine, at the weekend there? it sounded like an absolutely top weekend and featured three sensational bands that im aching to catch live; Jazz Bastards, The Rhythm Ship and Funkfoot. But being a non-ginger scottish sinisterite makes it somewhat difficult. Anyone know of them? I came across their music on MySpace so if anyone uses it i strongly urge you to check 'em out. And i have a truly fantastic recommendation for you Boston based folks. If any of you are in the vicinity of Harper's Ferry on 22nd June then you be one lucky mo' fo'. Those fine lads who make up the absolutely phenomenal Girls, Guns and Glory be making an appearance. They have one of the finest albums i have heard in many a year. Can't get enough of this band at the moment. again, you can check 'em out on myspace. sorry if that sounds like im promoting or some shit but i just wish more folks knew of these bands. Plus its free fuckin music. you cant beat it with a big stick! and for some content......got my tickets for the edinburgh T on the Fringe gig. yeeeehaaaw!

Sinister: This Saturday - Darren Hayman of Hefner DJs at HDIF at The Phoenix
by Ian Watson 15 Jun '06

15 Jun '06

Hello Sinister! Hope you don't mind me popping in with a HDIF email. It's been an exciting few months for me - I've been working on a HDIF compilation and we get the actual finished CDs next Wednesday. Woo-hoo! It's all very scary and exciting. I've been dreaming about doing a record label forever, but now suddenly it's all happening and it's going to be real. I'm not entirely sure I'm in total control of it, but it's too late to stop now...! But before all that, there's this. We've very very pleased to announce that this Saturday, HDIF returns to the Phoenix on Cavendish Square in central London. Our guest DJ is Darren Hayman of Hefner fame. Darren turned in an excellent set last time he DJ-ed at HDIF, so we're really looking forward to this. As it's our first night back at the Phoenix and our first night on a Saturday, it's super important that we kick off with a bang. So please please please come along and support us in our new home. I'm sorry there's been so much upheaval over the last few months, but hopefully this will see us settled for good. The indie track of the week is: "If Looks Could Kill" by Camera Obscura The soul track of the week is: "Mississippi Delta" by Bobbie Gentry And please let me know what you'd like to hear. It's always better when I've got a load of excellent requests to boost my set...! Hope to see you on Saturday! Ian x --------- How Does It Feel To Be Loved?

RE: Sinister: new B&S compilation?

Lawrence - I stumbled across it myself trying to procure the new Sleepy Jackson single. Here's the details from HMV: http://www.hmv.com.au/product/rockpop.asp?sku=-968462 "A splendid 8-track Australian exclusive release to coincide with the second Australian tour by this celebrated Scottish combo. The tracks are the lead tracks and all the bonus cuts from the various UK CD single & 7" formats of 'Funny Little Frog' and 'The Blues Are Still Blue'. The album 'The Life Pursuit' has been going great guns for us, as will this nifty 8-tracker."

Sinister: New York July 4th Show
by Nancy K. 07 Jun '06

07 Jun '06

Hi all! I've been lurking for a few months here (don't know what took me so long to look for a B&S list, I've loved them for about 7 years now). I was going to post about the two New York shows back in March but life kept me too busy to do so (they were fantastic and cemented my boyfriend becoming a convert to B&S). I'm Nancy, a librarian in the suburbs just north of New York City. (No, I don't have a bun and I try to keep shusshing to a minimum. Get that stereotype out of your head! *grin*) Anywho, the gist of this post is: can anyone in NYC drag along a friend on the 27th to score me two tickets for the July 4th show in Battery Park? I have to work that day. I was going to try to take a vacation day but looks like half of my small library's staff will be on vacation then already, so I can't even leave early *sigh* and being a 35 minute train ride outside the city I can't get anywhere in time to get tix that day. I was wondering if any listees are going that day to get tix and can drag along a friend who's not interested in the concert to get me two tickets? I would be eternally grateful. Please contact me off list at bonslivres(a)gmail.com. I've been watching their website, and waiting for their mailing list to announce details on how to get tickets for that show. What a huge disappointment when I checked the website today and found out there's no way I can get to the ticket locations on time. Thanks for listening to me whine. I've really been enjoying everyone's posts for the past few months and look forward to more.
