So how is every little thing. you probably won't have noticed my absence and i barely did. But apart from that how is every little thing with you? I am actully feeling in quite good fettle and am struggleing to settle into a post summer routine SO firstly- guided by voices were unreal- i really really really enjoyed that gig. They have such energy on stage and his voice (or memory) never gave up once despite the incredible amount of booze consumed even though the bassist looked like he was going to keel over at any moment. It was rather short though it was on 2 hrs and 45 mins and they only played 50 or so songs but i suppose begsy cannot be choosy. Anyway there is an incredible array of gigs coming to cork and the general vicinity. The frank and walters , teenage fanclub , supergrass ( to dublin but i can look past the money side and just enjoy them) and *Ahem* sugababes or however you spell it. AAAANNNNNNNNNYYYYWAY where was i. Ohh yeah i was just about to solve the last theorem but i forgot it. AHH yes onto the title. I had this huge conversation with someone i went to school with about girls in Cafes and the different types. 1 of them was like the soup nazi in seinfeld who could be and was in general a bitch. The second is the one that is just there to pay the bills and get by in life. This is the type i like , the type that drop cups and have a look verging on the embarrased side of *i really don't want to be here*. But speaking of Cafes it seems i am soon to be working in one. Since Java Joes (RIP) shut its doors and the Yumi Yuki club (Sushi bar) turned into a trattatoria we found that cork lacked a certain what is it the french say, i don't know. So one drunken evening a group of us decided that if we ever had the money we would open one in cork and make it a success. Well this was in a pub and there was plenty of beer taken but then the next morning in bistro over breakfast we spoke about it more and more and it has taken a hold over each of us, Separetly we have been scouring the shitty streets of cork for a nice enough venue. But the money was the all the important thing and we have a sniff of a silent backer so hopefully all will work out- keep as many extremities as possible crossed for us as we try to invigourate some cool into the crappy city ( think a cross between the cafe in so i married an axe murder and a normal cafe) it is a shame to see guy barker didn't win the mercury is it not and it is however (ooh content) it is nice to see an online blog by mr murdoch , speaking of blogs i should really get one together and put photos and stuff up considering i have a rather nice digital camera that is a lot better than the one i ordered even though it is a bit bulkier but what me worry? anyway i should really go. plays to go to. peoples asses to kiss plague and pestilence to you all jonathan +-------------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail sinister@missprint.org.
