Sinister: keys & psychobabble

[Chris Butler]

this is off-topic a bit.  yes.  totally off-topic.  ah.

our London-based indie pop band (Jinx)
is looking for a female keyboardist.  we're in the vein of
the Lucksmiths, early Cure, etc, with indiepop boy/girl harmonies.
generally we're looking for creative sorts above and beyond music.
piano players encouraged - and we actually have a Roland keyboard
for those who might be discouraged by lack of equipment.
the key ingredient would be enthusiasm for indie pop.

email me off-list for access to songs and more info.

btw, sorry for lurking for so long.  i've had little to say.
maybe i've been just living in the doldrums.  somehow that
reminds me of Shel Silverstein - the poet of "Where the Sidewalk
Ends".  A good read for any of you who love children's books.

oh and on a personal note, i'm sick.  why is it that holidays
and colds seem to go hand-in-hand?  is there a parallel between
the warmth you feel inside in both?

as for b&s content, i had a bit of a question.  given that Tigermilk
was 'produced' for that uni songwriting contest, has anyone kept
up with the goings-on of that contest post-Stevie/Stuart?  i'm curious
if there are any other stars in the rough there...  does anyone on the
list actually attend there now?

last bit: go see camera obscura/tompaulin/chris leonard wed night
(london, spitz) and then see tram/the relict at the spitz (dec 15).

PS:
i may be breaking two rules here (1/not B&S topic, 2/indie
bands don't advertise for members in public), but tough.
i couldn't resist because generally some of the nicest folks
i've met are from this list, and getting along well is pretty
key in a band.

if honey wants to admonish me, i shall take it with distinction.
