I've been away for a little while, but Valentine's Day inevitably brought me back to the list. Does anyone else think that traipsing all the way up to Watford (well Harrow) with a wee present for a girl I barely know now looks a bit sad in the cold light of day? Still, there's always Camber Sands to look forward too. I'm a bit perturbed by David's last, rather chaste posting; shouldn't we all be bonking like rabbits down there? It'll be like Glastonbury with sprung beds, dodgems and glitter. Well, here's hoping. Before that though, Sinisterines, a date for your diary. Chris T-T and the Duckyfuzz play with Matinee at Club V Upstairs at the Garage, Highbury on March 6. The gig coincides with the release of T-T's first album, 'Beatverse', and there will at last be some news around then as to who's going to be releasing our stuff (I'm the bassist in Matinee, by the way). While we're on the meglalomaniac tip, there's still time to check the bargain bins for Streamline's 'Best Un-Herd' British, currently our only recorded product. Kind strangers are now comparing us to the Go Betweens and The Man From Delmonte but judge for yourselves: The dates, a new guestbook and snippets of a new song, 'Thoroughly Modern', are on our site at http://www.members.tripod.com/~the_embankment Oh... and in my CD player: Dan Penn and the BMX Bandits' 'That Summer Feeling', 'XYZ' by Moose, 'Astronauts' by Stephen Duffy, 'Good Humor' by Saint Etienne, 'A Night At The Opera' by Queen, Ed Ball's 'It's Kind Of Lonely Where I Am' and Hole's great version of 'It's All Over Now Baby Blue'. Guess I should go practise :-( Martin, Matinee +----------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list please mail "sinister@majordomo.net".
