Sinister: what's your excuse?

[Ian Moore]

I've not been posting because I am ashamed at not having sent out my 
Sinister Christmas presents. However, they are nearly ready now - I 
have written the actual tracklistings on the cassette covers, so they 
should be going into the post to three lucky people in the next month 
or so. But not till I get back from the Glastonbury festival. Is anyone 
going to that? I think there is a Sinister-ILX meetup on Thursday, from 
about 5.00pm at the Brothers Bar by the Jazz World stage. Carsmile 
Steve  is going to have a big something to do with Girls Aloud at it, 
so if you see some guy with a very large item that relates to Girls 
Aloud then it's probably Carsmile Steve.

apart from that, I am lacking in news. My beloved has just  flown away 
to study things on the West Bank, so the nights are a bit lonely in the 
vicarage. I'm developing a bit of a taste for Old Cellar Finest Sherry 
as a way of wiling away the long winter evenings.

Still, I saw Billy Childish & the Friends of the Buff Medway Fanciers 
Association perform the other day. You know the score, garage rock like 
momma used to make. My new theory is nevertheless that this music only 
ever existed in revived form, and there is no halcyon era of ur-garage 
rock. This is life.

and with, I will bid you adieu.
