Sinister: sinister: I've got the rockin' pneumonia

[Robert McTaggart]

Hello

It's gone all cold, and I'm getting psyched up for the journey to
Glasgow tonight.  Taking Aggi, my Greek friend to Scotland, she's
never been and I promised I'd take her (she did ask if we could go to
the Shetlands - I said no.  By the way, Dina, one day, I'll take you
to the Butt of Lewis).  The fact that (even a slimmed down version of)
the Sebs are playing is an added bonus.  Saw The Strap last night.
Started slow, got great, Aidan's got a beard, can never see anything
at the Roadhouse, unless you stand on a barstool and I'm scared of
heights.  We laughed at the stoned wankers beside us who were
chicken-dancing to 'Lust for Life' at the end, and nearly spoiled my
evening by being 'an unruly mob', and singing 'Don't you want me?' in
the quiet bits.

Apparently B&S got the idea for playing at the Town Hall, cos Stuart
and Stevie were bored one night and drove to Manchester, went past the
Town Hall at 3 a.m. and said 'what a brilliant building, we've got to
play there'.  Any group that chooses venues on the basis of
architecture is OK by me.

'Islands in the stream' by Kenny and Dolly.  But I will defend that to
the death if asked.  'Netty's Girl' by the Beastie Boys is laughable
as in 'funny'.  My friend Anna gave me a record called 'Jokkmokk Rock'
made by some Swedish R n'B artist about the most Northerly town I've
ever been to and it's fucking atrocious (but absolutely loveable,
naturally).  Any Swedish correspondants know that one?  She also gave
me 'Foolish Beat' by Debbie Gibson, I think that's the one that crops
up in 'Welcome to the Dollhouse'.  Strange girl, but I love her.

'Frosty the snowman' of course.  Unless you can't 'I don't love
anyone' (not even Christmas).  Someone else will say 'Cry at
Christmas' by Denim, so I won't.

'It's the growing up spread'.  I'm 5 foot 5 and I'm suing.

Hey it's lunchtime
