Sinister: 13th Note closing?!
by Jason Andreas 27 Nov '01

27 Nov '01

Hi all. I heard some rather disturbing news last night. Apparently my beloved 13th Note is on its last legs. This can't be good. I've loved that pub/cafe/club combination since I started hanging out in the lovely carbuncle that is Glasgow. *Feels all sad* - Jase x +-------------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail sinister(a)missprint.org.

Sinister: opinions peter
by Jo tomas 27 Nov '01

27 Nov '01

its strange peter but I was thinking the opposite about the tompaulin LP. I really like the band, so Im biased I suppose. I think it is a whole work and the songwriting their best yet. The peel session was lovely. I adore the cover of since yesterday it always makes me smile. Other records to live for ? Camera Obscura. I can't wait. It should be excellent from what Ive already heard of them. smiles Joxx ===== small town night club over a pub/girls in make up thicken the blood __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?

Sinister: ...from a random polish correspondent ;-)
by Ola Szkudlapska 27 Nov '01

27 Nov '01

dear sinister, as i'm writing a huge crane at the building-site near my house is lifting a very-heavy-looking block of concrete. right now it's dangling right outside my window. in a moment the crane operator is going to have a stroke and lose control over the dangerous machine. the concrete block will then smash my window and kill me on the spot. but that won't happen. ;-) seriously though, i strongly dislike the thought of a MASSIVE block of flats/offices blocking out all the sun from my room. sun.. not much of it lately. but hey - it was snowing yesterday! :) lalala :) and yesterday was also special because... for the first time the polish sinister.. well, not 'massive' yet but generally a threesome, met in its entire threesomeness! ;) maja, kamil, self and some other nice people i know all met at an ace gig (btw, polish bands are becoming better and better, i tell you ;). i generally love gigs and yesterday's one was truly amazing. a few times i found myself holding my breath in awe, and only managing to exchange carbon dioxide for oxygen in a normal way when the songs ended (good thing i didn't suffocate! :). the audience gave me a positive surprise too.. waiting for the *very* end of the song before applauding, as if eager to hear all the different shades of the fading sound.. lovely. oops, got a bit carried away there. i'd forgotten some(most?) people are way better at lyrical descriptions than me :) anyway, am going to see this fantastic band (Lenny Valentino is their name, if anyone's interested :) again on thursday, and the 'polish sinister section' is going to meet tomorrow at (surprise, surprise) a yet another gig :) pam param what an action-packed time! and i'm going to meet up with maja tomorrow before the concert, so that we can actually chat a bit :) lallalaalala. if i didn't have an essay to write (for tomorrow) and a Proficiency english exam coming up, i'd be on cloud nine! (and if the building site disappeared/turned into a nice park, too) sssooooo i'd better go and start learning (or perhaps go get the tickets for thursday in advance. yes.) olalalaa/rachola cinnamon :) ps. apologies to everyone i owe tapes to (and to niko, whom i owe cinnamon tea to). they will be sent before the end of the year. promise. psps. ooh and if anyone wanted to hear lenny valentino/other a!c!e! polish bands (some of which are even a little PUNK ROCK!ish ;) and doesn't mind a long wait for a tape from a megadisorganised person.. than.. umm you know what to do :) pspsps. !viva rachels! -- Tego nie znajdziesz w zadnym sklepie!

Sinister: "waking up to us" (the bouncer has arrived)
by Kenneth P Y Chu 27 Nov '01

27 Nov '01

Dear Sinister, I was contemplating my own death yesterday, it was fun. Eating a sausage sandwich and watching the grease dripping out like the amber on trees in the Amazon that you see on TV (except the amber in the amazon probably has less bugs trapped inside). I was reminded of once going to see my friend in a cardiac hospital, he had some strange illness thing that needed an operation (which didn't go smoothly but that's another story), and in the wards near him are all these old overweight men with clogged up hearts, slumped on their beds like a bit of clay, one guy there has tubes that do all the toilet duties for him, I wonder why they had to make those tube transparent. I overhear some people were saying "Pathetic", and "They just wouldn't stop eating the greasy foods would they?". I felt a bit ill, but then that was probably because of the savoloy I ate earlier giving me indigestion. If I ever have a heart attack I'll probably hide somewhere so I'll just die and not have to be an exhibition inside a hospital ward. I want a Chicken Leg Supper. I went to Offbeat in Sheffield and then went to see Camera Obscura in Glasgow last weekend, it was fun. Even when I got thrown out of a club in Glasgow by bouncers for violent drunken disorderly behaviours (like, er, sleeping). On my way back I got caught by the speed camera. Also an idiot who probably fell asleep on the motorway swerved and almost run me off the road and killed me, but that's another story.

Sinister: Intro: The Cat's Pajamas

Hello everybody, This is my first post to sinister, I just busted out of the nursery a few hours ago. I've been hanging about in #sinister for the past couple of weeks, so I've gotten to know some of you already. For those I haven't met, my name is Jason, I'm about to graduate from the University of Illinois with a degree in Ecology. I grew up in the south suburbs of Chicago, Tinley Park to be exact. If there are any other Chicago area, or Chambana area sinisterines, let me know. I'd be interested in hearing from you. I'm off to bed now, so I'll stop here before I ramble too long off topic. I've really enjoyed reading the posts for the past couple of weeks, everyone seems really great. I'm looking forward to contributing from time to time.

SADDEST POEM I can write the saddest poem of all tonight. Write, for instance: "The night is full of stars, and the stars, blue, shiver in the distance." The night wind whirls in the sky and sings. I can write the saddest poem of all tonight. I loved her, and sometimes she loved me too. On nights like this, I held her in my arms. I kissed her so many times under the infinite sky. She loved me, sometimes I loved her. How could I not have loved her large, still eyes? I can write the saddest poem of all tonight. To think I don't have her. To feel that I've lost her. To hear the immense night, more immense without her. And the poem falls to the soul as dew to grass. What does it matter that my love couldn't keep her. The night is full of stars and she is not with me. That's all. Far away, someone sings. Far away. My soul is lost without her. As if to bring her near, my eyes search for her. My heart searches for her and she is not with me. The same night that whitens the same trees. We, we who were, we are the same no longer. I no longer love her, true, but how much I loved her. My voice searched the wind to touch her ear. Someone else's. She will be someone else's. As she once belonged to my kisses. Her voice, her light body. Her infinite eyes. I no longer love her, true, but perhaps I love her. Love is so short and oblivion so long. Because on nights like this I held her in my arms, my soul is lost without her. Although this may be the last pain she causes me, and this may be the last poem I write for her. - Pablo Neruda 5 years is a long time to be holding a torch for someone. Somewhere, in France or in upstate New York is a girl named Esther with little ears and a big heart. And she has my green mohair cardigan with the silver buttons, among more ephemeral things. I'm shaking just thinking about her. So, if anyone knows anything about someone named Esther from up around Cooperstown, tell her I said Hi. To Ryan: I hope you find someone like her, or better. Cause I know, as they say on the pizza boxes, once you've tried the best, you'll forget the rest. Its unfortunate how found happiness becomes the yardstick by which all future girlies are measured. Unfortunate, for all involved. I wish I had something more reassuring to say. To Kyla: Neruda, as discussed at the picnic or at the show. The quickest way down some literate indie girls pants.

Sinister: Sweet angel gone..........................
by RYAN MCKINNON 27 Nov '01

My heart all winter lay so numb, The earth so dead and frore, That I never thought the spring would come, Or my heart wake any more. -Song- Rupert Brooke Dear sinister, just a week ago I broke up with my girlfriend of 2 1/2 years, her name was Lindsay and at one point I really believed we were destined to wear matching sweaters, attend dinner parties together and share a memberhip to some quaint little country club. This sick little dream has hence expired and suddenly everthing is a little more overcast. Lindsay was a special girly and if I ever see eyes like those in another girl I'll feel truely blessed, as corny as I know it sounds they really were the bluest of blue. It's just hit me how I'd lost sight of that before now. Oh Dear! She'll marry a finance director, I pray to god she doesn't but I know she will. They'll both have the matching sweaters and country club acquaintances. Whenever she satisfies him he'll betoo cold to mention "love" so he'll politely inform her "you're stock is certainly rising tonight dear". I pray to god she doesn't marry a finance director. I also pray that Christmas isn't nearly as lonely as I fear it will be, I think I might go for that job as the Supermarket Santa Clause just to have some excuse not to spend the whole festive season in my bedroom listening to "Last Christmas" by Wham and dining on Selection Boxes full of chocolate I don't even like. Mabye I wont be the Supermarket Santa, it wouldn't be fair on the kids. Anyways I've already said far too much, thanks for reading. -Ryan-aka Dannys Ryan _________________________________________________________________ Get your FREE download of MSN Explorer at http://explorer.msn.com/intl.asp +-------------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail sinister(a)missprint.org.

Sinister: It's been a bloody stupid day...
by breams plural 27 Nov '01

27 Nov '01

Since I left the shores of the antipodes in september I have grown older and slightly wiser, not to mention a whole lot more twisted. In traversing the globe and seeing it's sinister inhabitants, I have learned much, not quite the meaning of life, but more along the lines or "Rules Of Engagement" for human interaction. 1) Do not trust anyone, least of all yourself. 2) Do not love anyone, least of all yourself. 3) Do not let anyone in, metaphorically or literally. 4) Further to no. 2, Love itself is a myth, it does not exist in the real world. Only in the princess bride. 5) Your favourite band WILL release shite material. 6) Pain is innevitable, often as a result of discovering no. 4. 7) The only friend upon which you can truly depend is a pet, the rest will eventually hurt you. 8) You ARE as unattractive as you think you are. Anyone that convinces you otherwise is lying. 9) When you think people are gossiping about you behind your back, they are. and lastly... 10) The only certain things in life are death, taxes and betrayal. I know that most people wouldn't have read that, but for those that did, well done...you are now well on the way to enlightenment. For the rest of you, I know you already hate me, so this does nothing to decrease your numbers, though maybe, just maybe, your ranks have swelled ever so slightly.
