Sinister: The pilgrimage has gained momentum

[Robert Brennan]

Ally Cookie mentioned someone else who mentioned early
REM.  The words 'REM' and 'early' placed within
flirting distance of each other is enough to make me
coo with delight but I won't cos I'm at work.  

Murmur barely got a mention but that's my 'fave'
(unless I'm in a really contrary mood then it's Fables
Of The Reconstruction - and soon the punches fly).  It
always takes me back to being a miserable 15 year old
wondering why those sounds made him feel like he did
despite the barely audible lyrics - ahhh.  I wonder if
it's healthy to like music that reminds you of being a
depressed teenager?  Hope so.  Oh and the pictures of
the kudzu vines and the trestle bridge on the sleeve
are ace.  Light, shadow, nature, architecture...
mmmmm.

I've got a soft spot for Document as well - although
The One I Love has gone a bit stale and tends to be
skipped these days.  It was played by the band at a
wedding reception once which I found a bit bizarre. 
All depends on individual interpretation I suppose.

So there's a picnic in Embra.  I'm gonna be up in
Scoatland visiting friends west o' Glesgie that
weekend so on the 15th I'll attempt to drag a
non-sinister B&S fan across the country to the other,
more postcardy city for byooze related funs.  

Thanks to everyone who said nice things about the Red
Knickers photos.  No reponse to the caption
'competition' yet.  Probably for the best but I'm
still accepting entries due to my failiure to set a
closing date.

'At the end of the day I'll forget your name.'
