Sinister: and if you can stand, I would like to take you by the hand
Dear sinisterines, You've been talking a bit about sleater kinney and hairy armpits of late, which reminded me of something which has been on my mind in the last, say, six months or so. I've wanted to start a band, but havent found any female bands, apart from the now gone Kenikie, to influence me. Sleater Kinney are too abrasive for weak middle class souls like me (although I still like listening to them, I couldn't attempt to sound like them) Velocette a bit too wishy washy (apart from 'get yourself together' which is popmagic). People curse me for saying "I want to be in a band so I can be famous" but lots of special people wanted fame more than a journey of musical discovery. I know Belle and Sebastian wanted nothing less than their body on the cover of the NME, but I want lots of money and matching poodles, and I'm not ashamed of that. It would be fabulously trashy, and theres a bit of you that wants it too. I love the magic and superficial things, infact I wish to be more shallow, so that life would become more simple. It's grim up north, you know. We travelled in silver rolls royces at 30mph on roads looking over the yorkshire hillside, shining against all the greyness. Everyone near london should come to the picnic at the weekend. Infact I insist you come, for I'll be baking things (the things are not babies, by the way, but cakes). Tres bizare..
