They were crap. They were indeed. Dennis Pennis introduced their appearance on Top of the Pops with "When they hear the phrase 'Breakfast at Tiffany's' most people think of the old film starring Audrey Hepburn. After hearing this band, they still will." Made me laugh anyway. More B&S moments: * When the Isobel gets heckled by her own band during her spoken word bit at the end of the R1 session version of 'I Could Be Dreaming' and she gets all uppety and demands "What did you say? What are you saying to me?" Sounds like the whole thing could kick off quite nastily. * 'We Rule The School': Just the way Stuart Murdoch sounds like he's carrying the weight of our whole world on his slender shoulders. This questions for Stuart Murdoch thing - no one seems to have been posting serious questions. Are we all afraid of sounding like pseuds or getting flippant answers? I know I am.

Sinister: Ros the Mod and the Detectives
by Neil Hargreaves 12 Feb '98

12 Feb '98

I think Rod Stewart absolutely *does* deserve our respect our at least our admiration. At the start he was Godlybrilliant and the way he's ended up now is .... well listen Most everyone who was ever anything in music then is a sad balding rocker now but so what? Do we think we'd have been (or will be) any different. In fact I think it sows that at least the mans human. Its sort of poiniant in happysadnostalgia kind of way.... Also I need your help settling a long running dispute... Quicy or Coulumbo. Does Q's crusading attract or repel you? Do you love our hate the C Mans bumbling sctick? Can you trust a coroner who plays that muck poker? Or a detective that never washed? Do you find (as one not unattractive female accomplice of mine does) Quincy 'a bit of a shagmuffin'? Do we care? Are ther anyfans of the lawyer guy who was in Vanishing Points series thi nger (what was his name?) Oh by the way we can't be nice to each other all the time. Sometimes list feels like its being presided overe by the secret pleasantness police. Can we not allow people a bit of passion?You know someone is your freind when you can disagree with them and slag them off without them getting upstet yeah. bye,bye neil H ------------------------------------------------- " despite myself at times well i have felt not in the mood for any of this..." ------------------------------------------------- ----------------------------------------------------------------------- .

Sinister: baby boom
by PJMiller 12 Feb '98

12 Feb '98

Not much action on the list today, is there? I've just been checking out the baby photos on the list. It's like a showdown between Little House on the Prairie and Just William. What is Tag doing in Megan's picture? Paul, I like your house, or is it a school? Who would have thought that you would grow into a badly drawn man? Nothing else to say.

Sinister: Dylan in the Movies
by MATTHEW JON MILLER 12 Feb '98

12 Feb '98

If I remember correctly Bob Dylan has appeared in the odd film or two - a version of Billy the Kid (the significance of 'Don't look back perhaps...?) and, more recently, Hearts of Fire which was simply terrible. Cheeerie-bye, Mat. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- . This message was brought to you by the Sinister mailing list. .

Sinister: Chat NEWS
by Honey 12 Feb '98

12 Feb '98

Yes folks that's B&S NEWS. Sort of. For all you chatters I've finally confirmed everything with Captain Murdoch. There will be a B&S CHAT on Thursday 12th March 1997 at 2pm GMT. Details to follow - please read them or it will be a horror. Basically you will have to join two rooms, called #Sinister and #JeepsterRecords on the IRC server chat.virgin.net. The rooms exist now (#Sinister is private so you won't see it in the rooms/channel lists but BELIEVE) so please go along and play if you want to stand a chance of joining in. You will need a chat client like Global Chat or mIRC that can handle two rooms at once. Some instructions on my WWW page, probably better on David's fan club page. Any questions about chat please direct to Delectable David not me. Also - to not disappoint people some band members (probably the Stuarts) will pop in on the previous date, Thursday 26th Feb but at 6 PM - seems like a stab at a good time for all. Not for an organised chat, probably (although I reserve the right to try it for 2 mins if I feel perky), but for a scrum. So thats: 6pm Thursday 26th February: B&S bunfight 2pm Thursday 12th March: B&S chat Finally am about to forward all the email questions to the band. Any more mail me within an hour of getting this message. Can't wait to see the answers to some - if I was asked I would slap the questioner with my handbag.

My life is dull, boring and sad so here we are : 1. 4st 7lb - Manic Street Preachers : "I want to walk in the snow and not soil its purity", "Such beautiful dignity in self-abuse" (The most beautiful lyrics ever written - Richey be happy wherever you are) 2.Creep - Radiohead : "What the hell am I doing here when I don't belong here?" (Ever had the feeling that you just shouldn't be here?) 3.Judy And The Dream Of Horses - B&S : "Walking the street from morning till night", "..never felt so good except when she was sleeping" (......living in dreams all the time.....) 4.Motown Junk - Manics : "Adrift in cheap dreams don't stop the rain", "21 years of living and nothing means anything to me" (I was SO happy when they played this at Brixton Academy) 5.Put The Book Back On The Shelf - B&S : "You'll have to pay for staring at the floor when people talk to you" (Cos I'm shy too...) 6. Lazy Line Painter Jane - B&S (HAPPY at the Union Chapel gig!) 7.Pictures Of You - The Cure : "...screamed at the make-believe, screamed at the sky and you finally found the courage to let it all go" (...nice lyrics...) 8.New Dawn Fades - Joy Division : "..mistakes were made I took the blame. Directionless, so plain to see, a loaded gun won't set you free, so they say" (Got me through a bad patch...) 9. I Am A Rock - Simon And Garfunkel :"I have my books and my poetry to protect me" (Self-explanatory...) 10.Strange Days - The Doors (Cos they are...) 11.Rollercoaster - Red House Painters : "Reminding me I'll never be able to relive those days except in memory" (......remembering.....) 12.Too Cold Here - Manics : "10 years of bleeding inside", "Sometimes the mind is the smallest prison of all" (....nice lyrics again...) 13. Talk To Me - Tindersticks: "In a hall of mirrors, you get sick of yourself" (Just like this song.....) Um...that turned into 13 not 12. Now you probably think Im a freak and will ban me from the list or something. Im not THAT bad - honest!!!

Sinister: Videos
by AD Hillmann, FV37 12 Feb '98

12 Feb '98

Hey People with websites (and Jeepster esp), how about putting the ep videos onto websites so that those of us unlucky enough not to have mtv can have a look? (Or are there size/legal problems?) It's only fair, the rest of us need to catch up, and we could do this before people spend extortionate amounts of money on swapping videos... Just a Thought, Love Adam ps if this was mentioned already i'm sorry - and about five days behind the digests. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- .
