Hello there Sinister. The week has been dull, but I feel obliged to post, since my name has cropped up twice. Mummy I've Grazed My Knee called me a Stud Muffin. I can't deny this enough - I merely have **friends** who are **girls**. Perhaps R. Fruitloop's analysis of me being followed around by "rats with boobies" is closer to the truth. Then again, being a Stud Muffin isn't exactly a bad thing, is it? On Friday night I deejayed at an Indie night, accompanied by various nefarious members of the York Sinister Massive. It was fun, and capped off my a conversation that I had with one blissfully ignorant punter: HER: Play something I know - this is shit. ME: That's mighty open-minded off you. Okay then, what are you after? HER: Ash? ME: We just played Kung-Fu. What else are you into? HER: Muse? ME: Sorry, they're shit. None of us have any of their records. How about some Kenickie or something like that? HER: I've never heard of them. Have you got any Limp Bizkit? ME: No. HER: Play something I know. ME: Okay then, we'll be playing some Strokes later. How about that? HER: Who are The Strokes? I thought I'd never hear that sentence spoken at an indie night. Ah well - blissful ignorance. Perhaps she'll be the best to gauge how good they are, because she's obviously been living under a large rock for the last year, totally oblivious to the hype. Anyway, that was all. The message for this post is: Asm is not a Stud Muffin. He might be, but generally he's not. love Asm.x P.S. Graham Henderson asked if there were York people on the list. There's a veritable Massive, Graham, operating under the moniker, "York Sinister Masssive" (YSM), consisting of at least six of us, and a fine Massive it is too. ================= "He's strictly a pain in the ass, but he certainly has a good vocabulary" - Holden Caulfield _________________________________________________________________ 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@missprint.org.
