good morning sinister, in nijmegen, which is where i live, every year a four-day march is held, and today 40000 people are walking 50 km for the fourth consecutive day to get a stupid shiny thingy. as you may understand, i am not one of them. instead i am sitting here at the uni, where i am supposed to remove the dna from a bunch of bacteria, which i will do later. together with all the walking, a lot of festivities are going on in town, with each night at least ten bands playing for eight days in a row. most of the bands suck, however. things i saw/heard that i like: a modern classical ensemble, a oasis/supergrass/weezer imitation called cry ugly, and a band called kopna kopna, which were quite cool and sounded a bit like zita swoon. i also drank some beer. zita swoon will be playing haldern, which makes haldern even more interesting. if i would have to choose the best concerts i ever saw, zita swoon would be in the top five twice. and b&s would be in the top five too. so i have decided to go to haldern, especially since it's only 1 hr driving from nijmegen. are there any sinistrians that would like to meet on the festival? i think i recall some people talking about it a while ago, could you email me privately? kisses to idleberry and michael grant for writing such wonderful posts. love to all, marc +-------------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail sinister@missprint.org.
