Sinister: B+S photos, Calvin Johnson, MassArt...
hi everyone, thought it'd be smart to put all the topics of this post in the subject line. Anyway, first things first.. I was wondering if anyone has posted any live B+S pictures from this recent tour online? If so, were? I'd love to see what they're up to live. Second is, on August 23 I'm putting on a show with Calvin Johnson, the Microphones, and Get the Hell out of the Way of the volcano here in Manasquan, NJ. I know it's a little early, but I wanna get the word out. They're going to perform a paper opera and it's gonna be amazing. Hopefully some of you in the area can make it. It seemed like everyone ignored my Softies show last year. and Third, I was wondering if anyone on the list has or is attending MassArt in Boston? I'm starting there in Sept. as a freshman and was just wondering if anyone else is up there. Anyone else up in Boston? If so I hope you like the Helms, they're super fab, and I'm seeing them on Sat. with the Album Leaf. OK. that's it. thanks for reading. --- andrew "who mistook these baths for showers? who fucked up that leaning tower?" - the moldy peaches __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?

* I've been a wallflower since April... so at long last I'm stepping out with a shy smile and extended hand..... HELLO there. * ArtsyDeco chick mentioned David Byrne lately. Has anyone else seen the alien espresso cup set he's designed? They're fantastic! * Quite awhile back, Lawrence Mikkelsen mentioned his upcoming marriage and was soliciting ideas for the song that was to replace the traditional "Here Comes the Bride" bit. Did you ever find one, Lawrence? I was thinking that Edith Piaf's "Non, Je ne Regrette Rien" could be an interesting choice... on several different levels... * I think you all might enjoy this CD that I've found recently, a compliation called "Pop Romantique." It's a bunch of different bands (Heavenly, Ladybug Transistor, Magnetic Fields...) who have done French pop tunes. There are lots of tambourines and happy organs (ooooh - no comments on that one). There's even a Bob Dylan remake. * Also, check out The Aluminum Group. I just ordered their CD "Plano" and it's interesting. It's at www.mintyfresh.com. * I saw a band a couple of weeks ago called Man or Astroman. They play surf rock, wear spacesuits and goggles and show Super 8 movies on screens that surround them. But the most impressive thing is that they light stuff on fire. One of their "songs" was comprised entirely of the sounds of an old dot-matrix printer in draft mode, printing out a file they had created beforehand. All three Astromen stood around it nodding or waving their hands conductor-style. Very entertaining. * Is anyone reading "Mary George of Allnorthover" by chance? Mine's an uncorrected proof and I feel compelled to find out the year on page one... mine just reads "197-." * The Things she Wrote at the End of her Note: TO: Rob Butler, who asked about good lounge music: Try some Les Baxter or Martin Denny. There's also a very hip compilation called "The Easy Project - 20 Loungecore Favorites." TO: Laura Llew: You're right, Dorothy Parker is infinitely more lovely than her portrayal on the postage stamp. What were they thinking??? At least they didn't ruin my Louise Nevelson ones. Also, any news on the winner of the mix tape competition? love from, Jenny (the wallflower) *TMBG +-------------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail sinister@missprint.org.
