Sinister: Duke of Stratosphear

[Keith Watson]

okay, so i just heard from Honey that one of you lot has been, and i
quote, "spectacularly rude" about me. Who was it? Tag? You said you
would forget about that faux pas in the Empire foyer. Keith? I thought
we'd sorted that problem over our disagreement about the limited edition
signed Arab Strap 'toys'. I certainly sent back the ones you didn't
want, maybe you didn't get the refund? Or was it the Miller man? I told
you i wouldn't hold you personally responsible, didn't i?


No, it wasn't me being rude, not as far as I'm aware Mr.Harringay. I have no
idea WHO it was mind you. My mail is back and alive again at work or so it
seems for the moment, sorry to everyone who's written to me and may
conceivably not have had a reply - as I say mail at work has been dodgy
recently and I know some mails haven't got through. Read your book Duke. It
was interesting, although I'd read quite a lot of it before on your website.

	By the way, anyone who wants to mail me can do so now at the following
address which is at home and therefore in a different place :
k.watson at cableinet.co.uk

Indeed Tag is right about the list and stuff. I have a birthday too you
know. Does anyone else on the list have a birthday? What's your favourite
round thing?  Etc. etc. Hate to say it but it does seem to be pretty dull
these days. The list was much better in the old days, when the fans were
REAL and the people writing to the list were BETTER like when Moses used to
pitch in with his comments about Stuart's early tracks like "Missed the bus
lost my mess" . Liked Martin Horsefield's bit about casuals, that was quite
factual that. A bit like having your very own discovery channel on the list.

	As regards the other pressing subject of the day, The WHO, I don't know
what more I can add to the current debate. I could I suppose recount the
entire story from 30 Years of Maximum R&B. Hey, maybe I will... who knows.
Let it be known however that The WHO are a wonderful band WHO should be
checked out by WHOever feels the inclination.

	Mark and Vicky, if you're in Edinburgh, give me a call if you like on 0131
228 9924 and we shall pop out for a drink, or mail me on the above address
(or work today).

	Has Rodddddddddddney not made it as far as Boston yet, surely he's got
himself "wired for mail" as Sir Cliff would have put it. Has he not joined
this list again. We could all mail him to and beg him to on rod at begbie.com
to which I'm sure he reads quite frequently.

the only thing I feel inspired to write is "unsubscribe sinister-digest"?
Well don't bloody well write it to the list Tag, ensure that you send it to
the proper address. There's nothing worse than the likes of you just sending
your unsubscribe messages to the list to get attention.

	The thing that bores me most at the moment seems to be the never ending
stream of mails since the recent LP came out saying stuff about how they
love (insert member of band) and how they've got sexy (fill in whatever),
it's just like the letters that Helen Gibson receives on the Sex Show on
Live TV (Dear Helen, your show is great, but when are *you* going to show us
your sexy feet).

 - Ian, I take it Mick has received proper neat printouts of all the stuff
regarding his sexy arms and stuff.



Cheers,
  Keith.
