hello readers, I've been a bit remiss in my mailing to the list of fun, but please be assured you are always the subject of my thoughts and your mails always receive a close perusal. I went to see that Star Wars film. I was a bit disappointed by it. I thought there wasn't enough Jar Jar in it. everytime he was on screen I got all excited that he was going to do something funny, and then they just cut to some scene of Anakin sulking. But I did like all the stuff with Chancellor Palpatine. I've decided that Ian McDermid is my favourite actor in the worlde, and I want him to play me in the story of my life. I notice from the ever popular IMDB that he played a vicar in something he was in once, so he'd be perfect. I mean, you can just imagine him saying something like "Hate the Sin, love the Sinner", can't you? Onto music... I saw some top bands play live here in sunny Dublin recently. in the one weekend I saw both The Soundtrack Of Our Lives and The Hives. They were very good. I have decided that Swedish music is the best and I am going to change my name to Astrid and move to Sweden. I also liked Lambchop when I saw them last week, but I was less impressed by the cockfarmer who sat behind me and special friend Rener and kept going on about how they were "a huge ensemble" in a loud twunty voice. some people shouldn't be let out. And I am excited about Múm playing Dublin next Tuesday. If I had a FISJYERLAP t-shirt would I look sad if I wore it to the gig? and on to business. is anyone game for a Dublin Sinister meetup next Friday? that's the 31st of May. We have a Sinister American coming to visit so we should be friendly. I have nothing in particular in mind at this stage, but if people get back to me I'll try and uselessly organise something. beyond that I have no great wisdom to impart. Like many other countries we have had elections recently, and like many other countries scumbag parties increased their share of the vote. a certain comfort can be taken from the dismal performance of what passes for a far-Right here, at least. bless you all, DV +-------------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail sinister@missprint.org.
