hello, sinisterites... okay, post three. see? i can keep track b/c it takes so much for me to get the guts to post.... anyway, perhaps someone already mentioned this, but i was reading Rolling Stone today (which is absolute crap, and even though i haven't renewed my subscription, they keep sending it...), and there was this interview with Pavement, about their new recording, and they said they produced "pretty much hard rock, with a couple wussy songs. That way we can still reel in Belle and Sebastian fans." this sort of makes me... well, unsettled... i haven't listened to a whole lot of pavement, but i've pretty much liked what i heard, but this comment irks me quite a bit. like, "hey we can tap into a fan-base of senstive indie rockers if we tack on a few sappy songs" or something. i detect sarcasm, but why joke about these things? anyway, i am languishing away here in western pennsylvania... although it was very sunny and quite lovely today -- an oddity for february... kids were wearing shorts! now i will sign off... but first, kisskiss to the always-more-often poster here in meadville, kimmy! incidentally, kimmy and i went to see "she's all that" the other night, and it was very sad. as in, pathetic -- don't do it! you will only lose faith that there might still be awkward, shoe-gazing, collage-making, book-reading kids out there... ones that DON'T harbor a secret desire to become "popular." okay, i will mercifully end now. for real. take care, marie +----------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list please mail "sinister@majordomo.net".
