Sinister: Whats the cure?

[idleberry]

... for hiccups? I have a bad case of them. Grr.

Anyway, on with the news and gossip.

Hello to new postee Lee Vowell who has undescribably
alright taste in music.

"Musically, I like B&S, of course. I also very much
enjoy the Manic Street Preachers, Suede (esp. the
first two albums), Pulp, David Bowie, and U2,
along with a lot of others. I like to think of all the
great music that I have yet to hear. I have heard good
things about Badly Drawn Boy, but haven't
heard anything yet..."

Totally agree with you on Suede, their first two
albums are ace. I didn't think much of their later
pieces of offerings. But words fail me when you say
Manic Street Preachers. Okay, okay, so I have the Holy
Bible. And its got some good songs that take me back
to my teenagehood where I liked something I could feel
stroppy in time to. But they are still pants.

Chris meanwhile, said:

"I just remembered (sorry it's so late) -  For those
of you who get 
Scottish 
Television (BBC3) there's a program on at half ten
tonight called "The 
Point" and I believe it has an interview Mick Cooke
who is talking 
about the 
Electric City thing in Glasgow.  Sorry it's such late
notice!  s o r r 
y.

I hope you are all doing just fine"

Same to you too Chris.

Yeah, saw that. Mick was muttering something about
teenage fanclub, and the 13th note, and the shoes on
the dummy in the B+S shrine not being his... but
Stuarts instead. Maybe his fake snakeskin red
stilletoes in size 13 really wouldn't fit. But you
know what they say about men with big feet.

Big socks.
And big socks means big feet.
and so on and so forth. I bet Mick was just starting
rumours about the size of his feet doing that.


Yeah, I caught it on telly last night, after my dad
went to bed in a strop with me, cos I got the TV
control and started doing my usual hobby of channel
flicking.

And then it came on. Apparently, theres like this
music exhibition thing in glasgow at the lighthouse,
covering all sorts of bands from 1957 to the year
2000. Including Pastels, Delagados, BMX bandits and a
whole host of decent bands. (Mogwai too, I hope!!) Oh,
and some band nobodys heard of have a wee bit there
too, with a blown up copy of the Sun after the Brits
back in 99 with two dummies wearing two band members
clothes and some other blokes shoes.

Its on til the 25th of February, at The Lighthouse.

I didn't make special notes of remembering that, but I
do sometimes remember the most incredible facts that
have no bearing on daily life whatsoever.

So far giving up going to the hairdressers is going
darn well. I've not been now since December 1st. Its
looking okay, I'm flicking it out a bit, and it looks
good when I try to apply my eyeliner Sophie Loren
style and wear the lovely wee heart shaped amethyst
choker my boyfriend bought me.

Took my wee brother shopping yesterday. Managed to get
him to buy stuff from Flip and Cult Clothing, alothugh
he did relapse and insist on going into Next as well.
I meanwhile, went and got a Curtis Mayfield CD, its
been bothering me for about a week now, cos it was
only three squid in Fopp. And I remember nicking my
pals Curtis Mayfield CD years ago and loving it. So,
thats my recommendation of the week. No, not nicking
peoples CDs. Go out and buy some Curtis Mayfield into
your life.


So thats all now. So what do you think of Curtis
Mayfield then? huh? And do you agree that Sophie Loren
eyeliner is the way to go for 2001? (I'm doing it dark
grey for that smokey look.) And has anyone else got
any success stories like me, about where their mum
gives birth to the wrong child (your sibling) and then
only when they reach adulthood, can you make them do
the things you tried to manipulate them to do for so
much of your life as a sibling?


enough!

Idles.
