*---* HAPPY BIRTHDAY SINISTER BABIES *---* Can I just say I'm excited at the prospect of a proper Belle & Sebastian picnic in NYC? I've missed both previous attempts. I will certainly be there, hopefully with my wonderful fiancee (and fellow seldom-posting Sinister listmember) Callie. We've been in both a picnicking mood *and* a Belle & Sebastian mood lately. If you're looking to make a weekend of it, please note that Ed and Jill of Shelflife Records are having a show/party at their Brooklyn apartment on the 19th. The show is called "September Set" and will feature 8 bands, including Poundsign, Aisler's Set, Lucksmiths, the I Live The Life Of A Movie Star Secret Hideout, and more that I can't remember off the top of my head. The festivities start at 3 pm that afternoon, it's cheap to get in, and all ages will be admitted. Check www.shelflife.com for more info. I always feel pressure to be chatty and a bit wistful on the rare occasion that I have to post to Sinister. I guess I'll just get back to work, then... mike appelstein ciflux@aol.com http://members.aol.com/ciflux +----------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list please mail "sinister@majordomo.net".
