G'morning you lovely sinister folk, you...
Aah spring is finally upon us... look! sun! hurrah! i'm gonna have to
buy some summer records now though, everything i've been buying of late
is cold and dark and bleak (erm... i've been told).... and
suggestions?.... i'm looking forward to this new b&s album thing... if
its a soundtrack though, aren't some of the tracks just going to be 2
minutes of the same 2 notes repeated over and over and stuff like that?
aah well we'll see i s'pose.
Is anyone going to Yo La Tengo at the barbican on the 20th next month
(talking of the same 2 notes repeated over and over ;)
If not, will anyone consider going with me?.... actually... erm... has
it sold out?... who knows.
Now then, listen up musician people, go and look at what john does when
he gets bored...
http://www.ilonline.co.uk/marx&engelstab.htm
yes thats right he makes dodgy music transcriptions, only half finishes
them, and them tells everyone to go and look, proving to the world that
he can't write guitar tab properly.
Crap.
Erm...
This post was shorter than i intended it to be, but what with all the
moaning about irrelevant posts lately, i got worried, and decided to
miss out a whole load of stuff which might bore people. Actually, why am
i posting at all?
Sigh.

So is a meet-up in order for all of us?
I was thinking if people would like to have a pre- and post-show
gathering... Pre-show for the May 6th crowd and post-show for the 5th?
I dunno... It's all up to you all. I just thought it would be neat to see
some friendly sinister faces and talk about B&S drunk.

No greenery near Brixton?!? As a denizen, I beg to differ.
Try Brockwell Park (a mere ten/fifteen minutes walk from the Academy - very
nice) or Clapham Common, which is about a twenty/twenty five minute walk
from the Academy or a ten minute bus ride.
Just thought I'd share.

I think I want to start a new religion. I think this is because I've
been reading too much Umberto Eco lately. Have I told you this
before? I've definitely thought about it before, but the feeling comes
and goes.
The dogmas of my religion, such as they are, will be two simple rules:
1) Nobody is definitely right about any given subject or belief.
Especially belief.
2) And especially you and me.
We can preach to people that nobody has the answer. If someone says
that they know the secret of eternal life, that killing lots of people
will take you to paradise, or that God needs a lot of money sent to a
certain box number, then they might not be right. Then again, they
might all be right. Is it true, or is it false? We Just Don't Know.
(of course, you have to keep your tongue in your cheek some of the
time. Or mine, if you like. Every religion should have a sense of
humour)
I suppose the main point is: don't believe your teachers just because
they're your teachers. Everyone is wrong, sometimes. Believe the
people who make sense.
In other news: hugs to idleberry. I know what you need to cheer
yourself up - a picnic! And luckily, there is one. See all you
scottish people on Monday.
(I know this post is short, but it still took me over fifteen minutes
to write)
love
xx

Hello fellow Sinisterites!
Karolyne (Milky^) and I (Humanity) from #sinister,
Are officially coming down (I mean we have tickets) from our French speaking
province of Quebec to see our beloved Belle and Sebastian down in Boston and
in New York City. And since we are relatively poor and that we don't want to
resort to staying at a McDonald's all night drinking coffee...
We were therefore wondering if anyone of you out there would have the
kindness of letting us in their humble abode and allow us to sleep on their
floor ? We are as quiet as field mice. And if for some reason you come
around Quebec City or Montreal in the future, it would be a pleasure for us
to accommodate you.
It would be really appreciated! And it would mean good karma for you, in the
end.
Waiting for a reply,
Nicola :P

Hello all, a lurker here.
My brother and his girlfriend can't go to the Manchester gig next Tuesday -
so I've got two spare tickets.
Give me a call from Friday onwards if you're interested ... 07940 505 025.
A bunch of us are off anyway so we could exchange dosh for tickets pre-gig.
Oh yes - face value will do.
Soz for list abuse ...
Dan.

How's things sinister?
Hope you're all well, but then how can you not be feeling happy it is Spring
time (people on the Southern hemisphere have autumn now and that's not to be
sniffled at either)?
Yes spring is finally actually here, I can tell because the big fuck-off
spiders are crawling out of their big fuck-off hideouts to my house to give
me a big fuck-off scare; and today at lunchtime I took a walk around the
pretty lake next to our place of work, and the ducks have started their
mating rituals already.
All the young drakes were there, competing for attention of the young
feminine, flapping their wings, and racing each other along the waves and
serenading their maidens on the top of their lungs. At the end the lady
duck went for the largest drake. Shallow, maybe, but then I suppose that's
why ducks are confined to the shallow ponds.
The two rejected male swam away, there wasn't another single female duck
around. Too tired to cry foul, the fowls retire to sulk over the cruelty of
the world - one day they'd learn that there's no point. No use, to be
sulking.
Anyway, Dimitra, whose name now seems synonymous with picnics (for all the
good reasons), proposed for a picnic on the Wednesday before the Brixton
gig. Unfortunately, unless she decides to hold this next to my office in
Milton Keynes (hey, we have a lake here at least - with shagging in it, no
less, plus other filth), I'd have to send my apologies as I have to work
that day.
However, on this coming Sunday, there is a one-day concert/DJing
extraveganza organised by Track and Field called "Pow! to the people"
(yes..) at The Monarch in Camden/Chalk Farm, featuring the illustrious
Camera Obscura, no less, plus other bands.
That band itself features Stuart Murdoch's very own lady duckling
Tracy-Anne, no less, plus other members, and possibly someone from our very
own Sinister Parish, so there are even B&S connections for those of you who
are obsessed.
And everyone in London are recommended to go. I don't know what the format
of the event (yes, the Track and Field event) is to be like, the website
says the doors open at 2pm, so maybe there's even time for a picnic
beforehand, for those of you who are inclined in that way. It is v.close to
primrose hill.
Ducks and Red Bulls
Ken
P.S.: I wonder, now that all three B&S treasure hunt trophies have been
found, if the answers to the various treasure hunt clues will be revealed to
us any time soon.
P.S.2.: Why was Hannah Brown in a bath full of jizzz the last time she
posted? I am intrigued, is it just another mystery that I'll never solve?
X-box: I can't think of a moral for the duck story apart from the lucky duck
gets a fuck.

Hello again.
Dimitra suggested that plans be laid for a London picnic. Although I'm not
keen to be the picnic-mummy per se, I would like to suggest the following:
Having perused an A-Z, Brixton and the surrounding area does not have much
green space where boys and girls could drink Ribena in comfort. So instead
how about we picnic in Green Park in the centre of town, and then all head
down to Brixton when the time comes? I suggest Green Park because Green Park
Tube is only 5 stops on the Victoria Line to Brixton.
Does that sound good? Someone else can take the reigns now...
love
Asm.x
