do you like when people post who haven't mailed Sinister in ages? Well now it it is happening again, for I, the dirty vicar, am subjecting you to another e-mailed communication. I'm flying to GERMANY this week. This is very exciting. I'm going to Berlin, and seeing B&S is on the itinerary. But I'm not totally one of those sad people who flies to other countries to see the great band of our times... going to Berlin is something I've been planning to do for ages. I'm looking forward to seeing the Fernsehturm and to walking down Karl Marx Allee, among other things. I gather I'm staying near the place that does the world's greatest felafel, so I should be alright for food. Are there any Sinister subbers who live in Berlin? If you are such person and you fancy meeting for a pint send me a mail. Before I go to BERLIN I am going to two gigs here in Dublin. Tomorrow KRAFTWERK are gracing us with their presence. I remember liking them a lot at the Tribal Gathering all nighter I went to, so I am looking forward to seeing them again. The next day it's the launch party for the first single by THE CHALETS, who include a former Sinister subber among their number (and are therefore proven by Marxist science to be Good). The Chalets are on in the Sugar Club, so I will be able to sit down and guzzle brandy alexanders while they play. Nice. Maybe you will join me. big shouts to everyone who everyone who ever mentions me in their mails, although I think ~Stine should do lose her fetishisation of things Irish. Mark O must also be mentioned... I have had a mail for him in my drafts folder advancing VERY SLOWLY to completion ever since last July. Separately, belated thanks to the people who sent me Christmas Presents. I have sent a separate thank you mail to the lovely Ms Jenny Payne. But I have also to thank the person who sent me a lovely home made fox in the snow t-shirt. Because I am USELESS I have mislaid the piece of paper that told me who had sent this, which is why I am publicly thanking them on this list. Perhaps they could make themselves known to me? Beyond that, it really is bedtime for a tired little vicar like me.
