Is there a site where you can get geeky information on equipment used in belle and sebastian recordings? I curious as hell as to what keyboards wee chriss uses in legal man. Or what kid of guitar stu used in the sinister record. I love the posts of Kristen Kenyon, and Astrid , etc etc. I love it that for me, for a long time, their stories embodied all that I really love and appreciate in this cruel world. Such people are really quite brilliant and their writtings leave me wanting more. Recently I discovered that one of my friends is one of these people. Writting about such lovely things as gambling, rocky relationships and radiohead posters hanging from shoe laces in a chain record store. Sorely he doesn't even know he's cool in that way. He'd shoot me if he found out i reprinted this in some pesky mailing list, especially for a band he listens to just so he can get get laid. (by pretty indied chicks no less!) Cheers to all. ************************** Story/Journal Entry/Good Writting starts here ************************** (this is a response after he'd , "much like jesus turning pepsi into coke" turned 100 bucks into 800 in an Southern California Indian reservation casino. ) That whole event has given me an impetus to keep going back. I went last weekend and lost a honeybee. This weekend is looking the same as last. I didn't do much with my winnings. $500 went to my car, $100 back in the casino, $100 on frivolity, and the last bits and pieces are in my wallet. How are you doing? I took yesterday off and watched Joe the King and Training Day. I also won two Radiohead lithographs from the wherehouse. I went to claim them and the store guys kinda jerked my around. "Hey, Monte, winner boy is here. He's won the grand prize?" "Grand prize?" "Yeah. Go fetch this man his GRAND prize." It was two small posters stuck on black construction paper. My "prize" hung from the ceiling via shoelaces. I'm sure some employee thought it was clever and probably was comended for it. It was shitty. I still put them on my wall. How's the bass going and the songwriting? I've practing vocals, but I still need help. Everythings the same. Ellen and I are rocky. and I'm still playing in rascuache. At the last show two girls kinda hit on me. One was obvious. She said band members should be aways be single so the fans could give something back to them. peace out. _________________________________________________________________ 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.
