HOLAAAA just for the rekkid, i didn't know what most of B/s looked like till i saw them in DC in person. i didn't even know which stuart was which, or who they were. i knew isobel cos her picture was in the puncture article and i thought she was a stone cold girly fox. and YEAH Archel, you are a star, you brighten my first sinister-day for a long time since i've been stewing in my own juices and ignoring my email...........and the outraageousness of the anti-isobel stance cannot be tolerated much longer. the GRRRLS of BELLE Rule Fo-Evah, t hey are fantabulicious and splendiferociously fabtastical, and anyone who thinks otherwise is a big ole stick in the mud. Oooh!! thems fightin words!! but yes. Stuey M is a luvverly lad, as is the stylin' Mick, babetastic city!!! in that platonic kinda way. i wanna put them on my shelf like precious moments dolls and just look at em all day long, they're so kewl. In any case, i would have been foaming at the mouth about the isobel bashing, but i was too busy being away and dreaming dirty dreams about my date with art girl, more later. xavierr..........the magic of felt guitarist is unbelievable, it puts me in a trance, i agree most vociferously with your praise, and would like ot hear about your acoustic guitar, when i finally get up off my ass and re-begin writing my sinister and email friends at home and abroad. Youn said?> Why doesn't Lesley Jo leap to Isobel's defense? Has her art student
become serious? Do you think that these sorts of crushes (the Isobel one) go away when someone real turns up? well there now, i'm shocked. you all were talking behind my back when i was gone. this is a truly frightening situation. sorry to be consistent yet again, but had i been reading the list i would have jumped on in without mercy, as it was i was away, yes, doing things with art student girl, and is it serious, i dont' know on her part, but is on mine. in any case---isobel crush will never go away, isobel is the most fabulous, and i adore her forever, and i will listen to the gentle waves and dream sweet sweet dreams about pretty girls.
I think that Isobel is beautiful and that mean, nasty prom girl who slagged her hair is simply jealous. Her golden locks are smiles and sunbeams. Thank you, Chris, for defending the Right Way. your kindness shall be rewarded richly in the next life.
Andrea: i wish i lived somewhere that sleater kinney got played constantly. they get my blood boiling. they are also super cuties. i have grown to like corin's voice (which i once read described as "ululating") a friend of mine actually pointed out the comparison between it and Belinda Carlisle, if you listen close you can catch a glimpse. but i have to SAY i think it's awfully harsh to just dismiss any "loud" female singers as being angry women singing about being angry, or whatever that quote was. i don't find S/K to be anywhere near as one-dimensional as that seems to be, they sing about lots of different things, and they have fabulously tight melodic music with so much energy wound up in it, and harmony, yes harmony. And if you would say PJ harvey is in that shallow category, you would receive a prompt SPANKING! from yours truly, cuz there is no way PJ is some vague ranting bitch, just cos she makes a bit of noise, don't mean there isn't substance in there. it jus tseems incredibly sexist to say such a thing. Male singers don't get categorized in the same way. just cos a girl is loud and outspoken, doesn't mean they are just bitchy and trying to cop an attitude for the hell of it.. a few of them are (ahem, Alanis) but it's just terrible to put any girl in that slot for no apparent reason. and i honestly don't mean to be mean about it, it jsut concerns me deeply, and i have strong opinions on that subject, so please dont' take it personally. i like to argue about those things. Gull Powa!! c'mon, sisterhood is powerful. interestingly--i spent the other night in a bar wit my dyke frend sam. i had been out for oh......lets see.....since 10 AM the previous morning, i picked up art girl (amanda her name) and we trooped to st louis and hung out all day, then i stayed over cos it was raining like FUCKING HELL when i took her home, and we had a bottle of blackberry merlot and listened to yo la tengo, and i stayed in town the next day and got really weepy, so sam wanted me to go out to the bar with her. there were more ppl in there than usual, and i started out feeling pretty miserable, i was in a tizzy over artgirl and wanted to sit alone and write a poem or something, and all the sad songs they played on the jukebox (BASTARDS play ABBA or die!!) were making me cry. but then a boy i thought was gay dragged me out to the dance floor, along with this married bi-girl who was flirting outrageously with me but wasn't about to get NONE of what i got. and i acutally danced. i danced most best to Madonna's Like a Prayer, and that song by Faithless that i rather like a lot. but i dont' like disco songs. i danced pretty well. i felt good. then supposed gay boy started hitting on me and tried to get me to drink a 'russian Quaalude" and i refused, and then sam told me later his roommate said he was straight. the bastard ASKED me "are you a dyke" and i said yes. what the fuck did he want??? hehe. ppl kept telling me how beautiful or sexy i was and it was creeping me out big time. b ut i guess it did up my self esteem a bit, cos i'd been feeling terribly ugly the past couple days and not too good about myself. so i had fun in a gay bar. i danced. oh yeah. when me and amanda were shopping at Hullaballoo she got this hilarious ruffled tuxedo shirt and plaid bellbottoms. so we decided that she would wear this, and i would wear my orange/green flowered yeye- dress with the holes cut out of the side, and some time we'll go on a butch-femme date. which promises to lead to many opportunities for flirting and being basically naughty. it's kind of odd for me to be more girly, but she's taller than me by a couple inches, and stronger and her hair is shorter. she has broad strong hands that drive me crazy and beautiful arms. i want her to sweep me off my feet. the other reason we decided on that butch-femme thing, was her wallet is Harley=davidson, and mine has Sanrio's Badtz-Maru. which is decidedly NOT very butch. although of the sanrio characters, badtz-maru would be the designated butchest bad-ass of them all, and spotty dotty would be the pansy-ass losers who are in the cheerleading squad, and hello kitty would be the dreamiest Isobel=type babe. AAAAAACK!!! Corin tucker is SOOOO cute. it's too bad she has a boyfriend. <:( i think the fact that B/S are so talented and down-home and and charming, makes them seem more physically attractive. if they were a bunch of assholes i'd find reasons to think they were ugly. personality is like 90% of physical attractiveness for me. someone might seem cute at first, then you find out they are totaly lame, and they don't seem all that cute anymore. at least that's they way it happens for me, which is why i'm freaking out right now because artgirl turns out to be the most wonderful and fascinating person ASIDE from being sexy as hell. I just gotta go now, no other way to say it. Lost in sweet songs about the Glasgow streets, LJ http://www.members.tripod.com/rebelstrange they were like those gauche youths who turn up to house parties only to cling to the dark corners in chaste disdain, driven by the naive, vaguely inhuman conviction that all merriment is a lie.
