Afternoon Sinisterines, danielle redden said:

in small steps something is trying to tell me if i should stay in the land of the free or sail to the old world where a twee boy loves me.

Nick isn't very twee, not very twee at all. In fact I'd go so far as to say that he isn't twee at all*. I was called a twee goth last week. By a hippy. I can understand the twee bit but not the goth part. "Why am I a goth?" I queried, "Because you have a long black coat" was the reply. I tried to explain that I only wear my long black coat because it is warm and I was cold but it was to no avail. Perhaps my Cramps badge also affected judgement but it was right next to a Belle & Sebastian one so they should have cancelled each other out. Perhaps the Caberet Voltaire badge on my bag is doing something unexpected... I went to Glasgow for the very first time last weekend, we stayed in a flat that, apparently, is only a few doors down from Mick Cooke. It's also underneath a flat owned by the keyboard player from Del Amitri. We kept him awake by playing 'name that (obscure) tune' with our kind host. I got 'Mongoloid' by Devo and precious little else. Our kind host - Glasgow's premier pedantic person - offered to take us to a cafe on Sunday morning where "Belle & Sebastian sit and be twee" but we didn't have time. On Saturday night at The 13th Note Cafe I thought I saw one or two of the Sinisterites who'd been to All Tomorrow's Picnics but I was too busy to go and say hello. I picked up the latest issue of Papercuts last month courtesy of the ubiquitous Monsieur Trousers last month, a very good read it was too. Better than 'How To Tell If Your Missus Is Turning Into A Lezbo' in the Sunday Sport anyway. Tim * - Of course, I may have the wrong person. In which case sorry. ______________________________________________________ Get Your Private, Free Email at http://www.hotmail.com +----------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the reborn Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail "sinister@majordomo.net".
