Sinister: being happy, being dirty

Hey hey!
Hey!

This is only my third post in nine months but I thought I should get 
it in before I go home for a while. Today was my final exam, so I'm 
scampering to the countryside to chew straw and wear a hat and sit 
around in sandals. Till September.

Whycliffe says it better than me.

What I was wondering was... is there anyone out there who would like 
to form a band? I've been writing songs for a while, and I've had a 
bash at playing in groups before, but it always seems to end up with 
me standing cross-legged, struggling with the three chords to 
Jailbird while an engineering student wrangles, bug-eyed, to get a 
solo out of a very expensive guitar (yeh man, I'm stung). 

I live in Ayrshire and travel to Glasgow lots, so if you're in that 
area, drop me a line.

Um, my favourite writers are Stuart Murdoch, Lou Barlow and Elliott 
Smith, and my favourite band in the world is The Smiths, and I have 
impeccable influences, I've been into trumpet solos ever since the 
theme tune to Johnny Briggs broke my heart.

I love songs that have chord changes that make you gulp and makes a 
lump travel from your breast plate to your throat. Uh, Together Or 
Alone by Sebadoh? My Wandering Days Are Over by B&S? Y'know?

Hey, even if you can't play, get in touch and we'll go for a drink 
and a boogie! Yeh, chew the fat! Toss a few ideas around! Steal 
apples and stuff! I'd love to meet new people and be versed in where 
to go for thrills.

My address is:

11 Five Roads,
Kilwinning,
KA13 7JX,
Scotland.

Well, gotta dash. Off for lunch, I reckon a warm baguette could do 
the business. See ya in the autumn,

John
