So here is finally my long-postponed post. I can’t say that I’m disappointed with the year as a whole, though I’m now almost back to the miserable state I was in a year ago. So what happened in-between? I always used to wonder how I would survive the winter, and a year ago it was worse than ever. I was still in school (don’t know what it’s called in England, but whatever it is you go to before collage/university) and I disdained the place. I’ve never had many friends and much less a girlfriend. But somehow I managed to pull through and summer came and I graduated. I was hoping things would change. In the summer the days are light as feathers and I was anxious for what would come next. I was going to study musicology at the university in a city nearby. And the first day there didn’t let me down. There was a girl there that I had spoken with briefly at a festival that summer. How big are the odds for that? I couldn’t help but wonder if it was fate. I talked with her quite a lot afterwards and it turned out she liked exactly the same music as me. And I thought: at last a girl who can just be my friend, and I was sure I wasn’t going to fuck it up and fall in love with her. But I had to reconsider soon. Just a couple of weeks later I wrote a song about it. I predicted I would fall for her as soon as the leaves would start falling in autumn. And I was right. In fact every song I’ve written since I met her has got something to do with her. Wait, it hasn’t all been about her. There were lots of nice people in my class. I was half in love with several girls. I also joined a program at the student radio that plays indie music. There I met some lovely people too. And on Fridays night I would go to a student’s club and watch indie bands and dance. The day Pipas came here was the best day I’ve had for years. Now I could look all the indie hipsters, who either had a band or did something else to make them ‘important’, in the eye and think that I wasn’t just a nobody. And all the other days it would be enough just talking to Lisa (that’s her name, by the way). But it wasn’t always easy and I needed to know how to proceed. So as a Christmas gift I gave her a mixed cd with the song I’d written on it. But it was already too late. The last day I saw her before the holidays, as we hugged and parted, I had already fallen in love (although I knew I shouldn’t). So when I called her later and she didn’t want to meet – I cried. That was all the answer I needed to know that she’ll never love me. Suddenly I was back at the bottom, but the worst thing was to find out I’d never really been at the surface. I just feel so stupid for being happy these last six months. And now I don’t know what to do or feel at all. My life is still promising I guess, but it’s going to be so hard to look her in the eye and still I need her to be my best friend. So I’m back where I was six months ago, and I shouldn’t be sad. I’m writing my fanzine too. I hope she will write something for it love, Chris xx -- ______________________________________________ Check out the latest SMS services @ http://www.linuxmail.org This allows you to send and receive SMS through your mailbox.

Message-ID: <001301c4f356$95e2c3e0$6501a8c0@KRISTIN> So that was Christmas, apparently. And New Year. Hello 2005. So far, I quite like 2005. I don't like the fact that I'm still here, still unchanged, but I do like January. When everyone else gets the January blues, I like January. I liked January 2004, it was a good month. January 2005, and I've found myself wistfully browsing through Sinister related memerobilia (also known as "cyber stalking sinister people I used to talk to"). It's a bit like picking up an old photo album, and going "oh my god! whatever happened to them?" and it's still (mostly) all there. There's Laura Llew, there's her Basic Eight quiz, there's Archel, and Mr Casarotto, and Caitlin Pigtails, and Gordon Rouss, and gayjay, and mandeemay (who isn't so much a memory, as a cyber legend who I still see around on the interweb), and Jayward, and Hobnob, and Jenny Payne, and Amy Longcore, Rachel and Ben Fruitloop Apps, and the pinefox, and Marianna and songles and ulla, and so many more. And you know, it gets me wondering, where people are now. That little circle of Sinisterettes, I used to talk to so frequently. Irritatingly, my computer went tits up over Christmas. So I had to change my user profile thing on it, and I transferred as many files as I possibly could, to my new add on profile. Unfortunately, I lost all of the email addresses I used to have, and I can't access my old outlook emails anymore. In addition, I can't get to my bookmarked links, which I'd just managed to tidy into various neat little folders, instead of having this foot-long list down the side of my internet explorer. The moral of my story? leave everything a mess, because it takes less wasted effort when things go wrong. I've also forgotten the logins for various websites I use/update as well. Fortunately, I remembered the one for Pocketbook Angels, which I've not really used in ages. So I'm sitting here, contemplating things to do. First of all I should tidy up. Then I should either read a book or go for a walk. I got a new book today - The Secret History by Donna Tartt. I'm assured it's a good book. I was meant to read it years ago, when I borrowed a copy from my friend, but it sat on my bookshelf, getting old, and then when I gave it back to her, I lied and said I'd leant it out to lots of people who wanted to read it. It was better than saying "Actually, I didn't ask to borrow it, and I couldn't bring myself to pick it up and read it". Like being back at school, I bluffed how much I'd enjoyed it. She looked really pleased. Now, I feel like I really should read it. I always feel like I should read books I've bluffed about reading. I did that at university too, when I had to read three novels a week (not entirely sdure how accurate that is, but I think it was in the realms of three a week, and it certainly felt like it). "Yeah, I really liked the bit where the main character confronted the other person, it was really well written...". I used to read the first few chapters, and if I could, try and read the rest. If not, skim through the remaining chapters, reading the start and the finish, and then, if it looked like something big had happened in that chapter (which you could tell, if the start and the finish were just so completely different, like, someone was mourning when they hadn't been doing so before) then I'd skim read the middle. Then I'd sit in class, and pick up on what other people were saying. Sometimes I'd disagree with them, if they expressed a feeling that they liked part of the book. Just to sound as if I really was interested. However, I wouldn't recommend this method of gaining a degree. I don't know how I managed, at the end of the day, winging it on pure luck and chance. I'm sure there's something waiting for me, somewhere, to teach me a lesson and the karma of my lies will come back to haunt me eventually. I think it already has manifested itself, in guilt. Even the books I did read, I can't remember what they were about, or what they were called. Portait of an Artist as a young man, Portrait of a Lady, Heart of Darkness... and yet only one of those I read. And I can't remember a thing about it. Sometimes I feel rather sentimental and superstitious. Things I haven't thrown out, not only because they might be useful again one day, but because if I do thrown them out, then, what if something happens? Like birthday cards from my gran, I hang on to, incase its the last one I get. I've got 15 years worth of cards from her now. Some still have my grandads name on them, some just her and her dog. Now, it's just the ones with her name on them. And now, I'm going to go. And be wistful elsewhere. Tomorrow, I'm going exploring, because that's what January is for. love idles xxx +-------------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail sinister at missprint.org.

I am Spanish, I mean, it's not that important too, I hate bullfighting and flamenco and beaches and mainly anything people tend to know about Spain...

I hope life isn't too unpleasant - although I can't imagine it'd be too nice having a stick stuck around the region where your bottom would have been if you had one, but it makes for convenient consumption, so at least it was for a just cause. I've watched this one reality TV program the other day, it was called something like changing spouses or something. The program itself wasn't really all that noteworthy, although it did almost make me cry in the end when I learnt of this dysfunctional family with the dad who had once walked halfway around the world, during which time his brother had died back home and he couldn't make it back in time (by that time he'd walked all the way to Thailand) and as a result of this he became ultra protective of his children who grew up to be dorks. It was very emotional. I can't even remember what I was going to tell you about this show anymore. Oh actually I remembered, one of the kids said something "Er.. I didn't do something cause something or another" and this mother from another household was like "Don't say Cause - it's not a real word", which was silly. What a funny story. There was this other time I sold this powertool to a second hand shop, and a few weeks later it was Christmas and my brother gave me the same powertool as a present. I know this because one of the cables was missing. What a funny story. Anyway. Speaking of Christmas, how were your Christmases? Mine was okay, the weather was cruel, and although the season of yule warms the heart, it still hurts. I still remember last year's super dooper 9 gigs in one night night at the Winchester Club. That was awesome. The opening act was particularly good - this dude did an acoustic guitar cover of The Darkness's (Christmas Time) Don't Let The Bells End, with Gavin Dunbar from Camera Obscura on the drums. He did TWO key changes at the end chorus! TWO. He went from A to B to C#!! It blew the house down, and everyone had to relocate to the project. I miss this Winchester Club thing. If you celebrate Christmas at Old Trafford, would that be a Man U yule? Would Shaun Ryder ask "Oi! Are you Man U yule you? Are you Man U you? Are you Man U? Are you Man U yule you?" Happy New Year kids, Ken +-------------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail sinister at missprint.org.

Bruno I loved your best-of idea!!! thanks for the support! too bad so few other sini boys & gals bothered to participate in that poll... in other news, did you know about the following? The Origin of "Xmas" - http://www.cresourcei.org/cyxmas.html The abbreviation of "Xmas" for Christmas, long reviled by many conservative and Low Church Christians, is not nearly as blasphemous as many contend. Rather than a sacrilegious removal of "Christ" from Christmas and replacing him with an unknown, as some claim, the "Xmas" abbreviation has a long history in the church. In Greek, the language in which the New Testament was first written, "chi" (c or C), which is almost identical to the Roman alphabet "X," is the first letter of the word "Christ" (cristoV, or as it would be written in older manuscripts, CRISTOS). In fact, the symbol of the fish in the early church came from using the first letter of several titles used for Jesus (Jesus Christ Son of God Savior) that when combined spelled the Greek word for fish (icquV, ichthus). In the early days of printing when typesetting was done by hand and was very tedious and expensive, abbreviations were common. The church began to use the abbreviation C for the word "Christ" in religious publications.

Message-ID: Ok, several things to do for 2005. I guess they say something about me, I don't really know... First of all, bye Paula! Paula is a girl I used to be in love with... well... I don't really know if I loved her or thought I loved her or what... Well, the thing is she never got to know that, and one of our common friends just told me she's got a new boyfriend, so I guess it's time to say goodbye! I feel it's more releasing than sad, so... bye Paula! Second, party less but more. I mean, I don't want to get that drunk anymore, specially when getting drunk is the only thing I do that Saturday night. But when I have parties or something, I want to have fun instead of thinking what people will see when they look at me (well, my hairdo is still stupidly important for me). Third one, stop being everyone's defender, specially for the ones who don't deserve it. I just decided the world that sorrounds me s adult and has no need of that. Fourth, buy MANY clothes. Well, I share bedroom with my older brother (Jorge, aged 26, I am 22) and if you look at his clothes and mine you'll get really depressed!!! Ah! And lose some weight! Ok, I gained 5-6 kg this summer, but it's been very long since that, it's time to get rid of them!! Sixth!! The most important of them all!! (why do they have to be first or last?) Be really happy and, when possible, make people around me happy too. I'm fed up of doing what "I think is right" and "having principles" and all that stuff. I'm not a teenager anymore, so I'm gonna stop trying to change the world! Oh! Listen to more classical music and, surprisingly, to more American bands, anything from Hank Williams to Wilco or Pernice Brothers or whatever comes in my hands. Ah! and get all B&S singles! 8 - I love getting involved with things, I am the one who always arranges the parties and all that stuff, so do that more... I love it.... Well, I also want to decide if I really want to have a girlfriend right now, and if I do, look for her (she must be out there). But I guess I ask for too much considering my physical aspect.... And finally... check that everyone does their things to do, as they check mine!!! -- ---------------------------------- Javi Sorribes javiersorribes at gmail.com +-------------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail sinister at missprint.org.

I think it might have been called "The Wild One" or something, it was all about how the singer (Phil Lynott) was something of a wild one. Next thing the song had ended, and what should the DK play but... "I'm A Cuckoo". Winner. In many ways living in Ireland is a bit rubbish - the rationing, the curfews, the problems with mutant raiders, etc. - but the place does have its upside. Not least of which is John Kelly and his Mystery Train programme. I've heard pretty much every DJ in the world, and on balance I feel that Mr Kelly is the true heir to John Peel, what with his wilfull eclecticism and open-minded approach to music. In fairness, he perhaps does not do so much to seek out new music, and there is perhaps only so much Mrs Miller any one DJ should ever play, but he is a jolly fellow and I love listening to him. Moving along, surely it is time to address the fabulous Sinister Christmas gift exchange thing, which the lovely Grainne has organised. As something of a slackass I am in the embarrassing position of being two presents up, with one still on its way. I had hoped to have a wuvly present on its way to three very special people by now, but I haven't been able to master the magic of the CD-writer on Mrs Vicar's laptop. So I don't know, maybe it's back to tapes for me and you. I got some nice things from my Sinister schenkers, notably a compilation of mainly Swedish indie music from Krister Bladh (featuring a track from well-known Swedish band The Pines). Lots of sweets came my way from Stefano, nice, but nicer still was the CD - eschewing the compilation approach he recorded a load of tracks by some outfit called ONQ, who sing in foreign. I like it. Maybe now it is time for me to post this and move on. Bless you all!

During Christmas I was at my parents, and they have moved to a big house in the country and put the computer in a room in a cold dark turret full of ghosts, so I was too scared to use it. Since I've been back in civilisation I have been distracted by other mailing lists. Of course there's always Milko (http://uk.groups.yahoo.com/group/milko/), but recently I have discovered a great mailing list where you can write humourous articles about buses. Here it is: http://www.cardiffbus.com/company/feedback_ops.htm . If you write a funny story about how your bus caught on fire one morning, or how you had to wait for one for ONE AND A HALF HOURS you will often recieve an interesting reply. Sometimes they pretend to be angry with you for "wasting their time". Ha ha! Crazy guys! Two Lucys teased us all: >Goodies being sold include Stuart Murdoch's hat (think "Dog on Wheels" >video - also check out the photo!!), Lord Anthony demo sessions from >1998 (would ye credit it?! as Paw Broon might say), rare posters and >other cd and vinyl promos and stuff!! Many include a lovely signed >certificate from the lovelier still Mr Murdoch. Gosh! I had a look, and Lord Anthony was at 78 quid! You people are nuts! Hmm, I might buy I Love My Car though. Heavens! Lucy A also said >The Bay City Rollers and Goth Favourites The Jesus And Mary Chain. And I thought how great it would be if someone made a TV series called "Jesus and Mary Chan", about the adventures of a Mexican bandito and his Chinese detective wife. A funny thing happened the other day. I consider myself a quite honest person, although I occasionally embellish stories for added effect, but I rarely lie outright. At the bus stop I ran into someone I knew. Someone who is not so bad, but is a bit annoying. He has a constant slathering grin, and he gurgles and his arms leap about like he has rabies. Apart from this he is quite normal. We were chatting on the bus about what we got for Christmas (I got some pannier bags for my bike, Clarence) and I said how I had thought of getting an iPod, but figured I would probably regret it. He said, "You know, you have to be careful with iPods, too, because people see the white earphones and mug you for it." And I said, "Yes, I know, in fact it happened to my sister, what a terrible thing that was." And he looked quite shocked. Almost sad. But I had to go and buy a sandwich so I scarpered. Thing is, it was a complete lie. My sister doesn't even have an iPod. And, while I stood in the queue, waiting for someone to butter my sandwich, I couldn't work out why I'd just totally made something up for no reason and decided I must just be a bad person. In fact, I don't know anyone who has an iPod, and certainly not my sister or me. If I want to hear a tune when I'm walking down the street, I just whistle. What else was I going to say? Hmm. I heard someone from Belle and Sebastian on the radio the other night, Mick I think, saying about how they're getting on well with their new songs, but I can't remember anything else he said. That wasn't very interesting was it? Next time I promise to DO BETTER.

I never could and still can’t picture myself as some middle-aged old guy. They just seem so indifferent about everything. Like they don’t FEEL or CARE about things. Like they’ve given up and just let the days come and go, slipping through their fingers. I can’t see myself alive after thirty, especially if things carry on as they are now. But maybe now I’ve found that it’s possible I could turn into such a person. I’ve found the missing link. Studying at a university you obviously encounter quite a lot of people, perhaps one too many. Today on the train I overheard some guys talking, when it suddenly struck me. They were just sitting there, all apathetic, maybe a bit down cause of the weather. But the things they were talking about! Work and essays and exams and how this other guy failed his last exam or how another guy had to nail his next to pa! ss the course, or whatever. Despite the occasional half-hearted smile they really didn’t seem to care one way or the other. You see, this is the kind of thing you turn to when you don’t have anything to talk about. You don’t because you don’t really know each other. Recently I’ve done pretty much the same thing myself. I’ve met many people, but you just talk and smile at each other. You’ll consider it being friends, and some people I really, really enjoy the company of. But there seems to be this invisible line that is very hard to cross. It’s hard to get to know the person beneath the surface, and surfaces are always kind of the same. Perhaps this is why relationships with other people seem so much smother now than they were when you were younger and in school. You won’t get hurt anymore, but simultaneously the really close friends don’t grow on trees. People feel and think so much when they’re young. I mean, I could sit on bus for an hour just pondering my life, without a! care for all the time wasted on doing nothing. But nowadays I f! ind mys tting my thoughts show. And then after twenty years or so more, you’ve gotten so used to it you just put your mind on standby. That’s when you’re as good as dead, I spose. Well, that’s enough of me ranting on about the same thing. Btw, don’t you find it strange that nowadays Struan’s so ‘busy’ he doesn’t even have time to talk to people like you or me? How busy can you be when you don’t have to get up at 6 am to go to work? love, Chris xx -- ______________________________________________ Check out the latest SMS services @ http://www.linuxmail.org This allows you to send and receive SMS through your mailbox.

I was involved in a traffic accident the other day. When I phrase it that way maybe it sounded way more serious than it was. I mean, I was on a bus, that hit a motorbike. Actually that's still pretty bad.. although it happened at around the speed of 2 mph. For those who aren't very good with speed measurement this is about the speed of burgers sliding down the chutes from the kitchen at McDonald's. See.. I just kind of walked down the stairwell, and heard this CLUNK sound, and looked to the front and there was this bike that was in front of the bus, and the rider was banging manically at the windscreen of the bus, shouting "fuckink hell!" repeatedly. This is the worst bit, because this was the point when I started laughing really hard. I felt really bad because I really didn't mean to do this, I didn't think that bikes being hit by busses are funny at all, however the bike rider had a REALLY SQUEAKY VOICE, in cockney. "FUCKIN ELL!" he shouted, desperately, "ARRRRGH!" "REVERSE THE BUS!!!" "WAIT WAIT DON'T REVERSE!! ARRRRGH ARRRRRRRRRRRRGH". Those were his exact words, with those exact number of letter Rs. I had to get off the bus soon after. When I looked back they both seemed okay, but his bike was a bit scratched cos bits of it got trapped with the bus's bodywork. And I imagined that this bike may have been fairly new, and I thought about how sad I would be if my new bike got scratched by a bus, and some guy on the bus laughed at my squeaky cockney voice. This was when I vowed to never own a brand new bike, or to ever talk in a squeaky, cockney voice. -- So speaking of pwning, and thus the pwning pre-pwned items. I had a look at the eBay thing and I couldn't figure out how to look at those Belle and Sebastian items since the auctions are over. However, I manage to find some older items through the feedbacks, and I just cannot believe that the Dido RARE Demo Tape only went for £8.03!???!!!? Eight Pounds and Three Pence. I'm outraged. -- Krister Bladh wrote: > Btw, don't you find it strange that nowadays Struan's so 'busy' he > doesn't even have time to talk to people like you or me?

I just went to the Diary thing on the B+S website and I end up reading about how Stuart sometimes thinks about Beans when he's naked in the shower, and now I wish he's more busy so that such information isn't quite so regularly disclosed.. I don't remember there being any more or less communications than in the past... maybe he thinks about us when he's in the nude too you know. I'm not one to talk about being busy of course I mean I get up at 8:40am to go to work.. And I'm sending emails to the internet just now.. -- I'm sorry if I got you guys all worried when I said I was in a traffic accident. There WAS that time when I got knocked down by a motorcycle, but that's another story. And also the story of me singing a really really bad rendition of The Final Countdown in front of 400 people and not hitting a singing note, too. Anyways. Drive safe, guys, never stop.

Message-ID: Dear Sinners.... Hi everyone!!! Here I am after what I would call the "indie movies weekend"... It all started with Welcome to Dollhouse by Todd Solondz (spelling?)on public TV, after that I got to see new Ken Loach movie at the cinema, and I just finished Lost in Translation by Sofia Coppola on DVD!!! Well, it's been a really nice time... But the thing is, I just started to wonder how this cities (Tokyo, Glasgow or random US city) are, I mean, if they're so different to the way the film pictures them... I don't know, maybe it's because Spanish cities have nothing to do with what you see the in movies (even in Spanish movies). So I thought, maybe I can find some Sinners (sorry for the invention, but I really love the "sinners" word) who have seen any of the 3 movies and live in that city (specially Glasgow I guess), and can tell me how these cities are in fact. And maybe it's just a stupid way of not feeling so lonely. But anyway.... look forward to hear from you all!!! -- ---------------------------------- Javi Sorribes javiersorribes at gmail.com +-------------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail sinister at missprint.org.

Your gifts really brightened up my winter darkness. It made me so happy that you put such an effort in presents to someone you don´t know, and that I appriciate these presents from strangers more than many of those from relatives which should know me better.

I was at this charidee event for people who had been washed away by the big wave. Your old friend Paula Cullen Booze Explosion's band The Chalets were playing, my main reason for going, even if I am not convinced by their new 80s Slapper makeover. Still and all, they played an impressively rocktastic set. There were other bands on the bill, and one of them was The Clonefox. This was not actually the name he went under, but he looked and dressed so like The Truefox that I was wondering if maybe he had flown over to Ireland to help raise money for victims of the big wave. Then I realised that this could not actually be the case - for he was using a laptop to assist in the creation of his sweet music. So he must be some local fellow. His name turned out to actually be Joe Chester. I was interested enough by his music to now mind seeing him again in the future, so maybe you too might like to check him out, if you are local. The other band I saw did not have current or former member of this mailing list in their line-up, or a clone of one, but they were called 8-Ball and proved yet again that the days of shoegazing have started to come back. This is a good thing. Meanwhile, my fair consort and I have spotted a shared gap in our busy schedules - the first weekend in February. We are thinking of making a flying visit to somewhere exciting... Cork or Glasgow, I reckon. Watch out if you live in either of those towns. And finally, those of you who are still waiting for a christmas present from me (you don't know who you are) will be pleased to learn that I have finally put my stereo system back together, so a lovingly crafted c-90 compilation tape could soon be coming your way. bless you all, DV +-------------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail sinister at missprint.org.

How's it going children? So, we've all survived the official most miserable day of the year without too many scrapes, I hope. It couldn't have been that miserable, really, though, because the news was covering this piece of news all day and so there can't be that much suffering going on in the world or silly young men wearing inappropriate clothings to parties just now. So how are all of you guys? Were you miserable in January? Are you happy? Is February going to bring some much needed joy? February is a strange month for me, the tiresome twilight of Winter mixed with the anticipation of March and the brighter evenings. Like the final mile of a marathon, you're tired, in your head you can already feel the jubilation of finishing the race, but you still have that final mile to run. I have started going to the gym lately, it was something that I thought a couple of years back I would never do. Just because it looked so boring. And my God! It was very boring. The first time I went I got on the treadmill and I was like, damn, people pay money to do this??? And then I remembered I had the iPod and suddenly hey yeahhh!! I put on loneliness of the middle distance runner and then time just flies by, I've set the thing to play just all B+S songs and I think I got through 4 songs, and then to the cycling machine, I was really tired by the end of a couple of goes but thought, okay, one last song and I'll stop. And it was Paranoid Android by Radiohead!!! It was like 7 minutes long!! If I didn't have music playing, or hadn't swigged a quarter of a bottle of whiskey in the locker room, I wouldn't have made it, but now I have to carry on until the end of the song. It was Painful!! I mean, it's painful enough without Thom Yorke wailing about The Squealing!! The Panic!! The Vomit!!!! The whiskey was really working hard by then. But then the guitar bit came and I knew there was only 30 seconds more to go, and if Johnny Greenwood can make 6 little strings make crazy noises for 30 seconds I can at least push a two little pedals round and round to make the distance LED thing go from 4.5 to 4.6! And in the end I made it. And now my thigh muscles are tremendous. Tired now x Ken P.S. Congratulations to Belle and Sebastian for being voted as the Best Scottish Band of all time! I can't believe however that the Sensational Alex Harvey Band made it to 5th, and Texas are only the 11th. ********************************************************************** This email is confidential and intended solely for the person or entity to whom it is addressed.

Thursday February 3rd The Phoenix, Cavendish Square, W1, three minutes walk from Oxford Circus tube 8pm - 2am, £3 members, £5 non members, membership is free just email membership at howdoesitfeel.co.uk Guest DJ: Dickon Edwards (Fosca) Also starring: The Sarah Jukebox from 8pm until 10.30pm more info at http://www.howdoesitfeel.co.uk and the blurb endeth. well, that's about it. thank you. hope all is well in your world and you're making more sense of it all than i am. maybe i just don't like depeche mode that much. that might be it. x +-------------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail sinister at missprint.org.
