>Quiz: who did the Sarah speaky bit in Dirty Dream #2 in London (clue: >it wasn't Sarah)? There's a clue in Stuart's email. Whoever gets the >answer right first gets to post something saucy and irrelevant >without me grumbling. Rodney Trotter Some fucking knob from a broadsheet Lenny Waronker T!A!G! Naughty Ciara (the smart money's on this one) The Shepherd Noel Coward Gerard zee sound man. It must be one of the above. God, my English cock cage is killing me! Have I won? If so, I want a prize. Seriously. I think the Earth's core would make a great venue for a meet-up, you can hire those mole machines quite cheaply from Halford's and you don't even need a driving licence because you're underground so nobody gives a shit. The problem arises when our friends from Brazil meet our friends from japan and can't find the brakes and their moley digger things get all ravelled up with each other and they start spinning round and what have you and before long there's no more Earth's core and the picnic has to be cancelled. So maybe Manchester's the best bet. Tag will organise it because he got most mentions in our hero's kind and thoughtful message. I love it when singers communicate with their fans by e-mail, it reminds me of Jeff Buckley promising his fans that they would soon all be making a bonfire out of ticket stubs, before tragedy befell him. And them, albeit to a lesser extent. If you go swimming, Stuart, make sure it's in a properly supervised municipal pool. Do you know what I bought today? "Grounation" by Count Ossie and the Mystic Revelation of Rastafari! Bloody hell! My fave track is the 13 minute epic "Narration". It was cheap, and rightly so. No, I'm sure it'll grow on me. You're right Nick, the booklet is full of silly mistakes that give the impression that the band are a bunch of mumbling cretins. I've been really angry about it for ages, but hadn't said anything for fear of violent reprisals when I make a boo-boo myself. Pyrenees mountain dog! That's like saying Scotland Terrier, Alsace, Ireland Wolfhound or Border Collie. Which broadsheet has got Master Murdoch's dander up in such a charming manner?

I met Morrissey! I met him! I'm just so excited, I have to tell everyone. Just roll your eyes at me and delete away. And have fun, everyone lucky enough to live in a B&S approved city, and will see them. (sigh... jealousy.)

Sinister: Fairly good review of london gig in NME, but this isn't about that at all

Only this time we will, of course. It's like that track on Domestiques which starts with some french dj talking, all in french obviously. I'll try to tape it, and send it to interested people, if I can pick up the signal clearly enough. What a shite day I've had, (my first and last day of non artistic employment), in a theatre box office, enlivened only by the thrill of not knowing how anything worked at all, or indeed, what I was meant to be doing. The undoubted highlight was unwittingly sending a scrum of teenage boys to see Danny La Rue, instead of Dannii Minogue, through a typing error. I like to think that having paid, they'll decide to get their money's worth anyway,in the back of the stalls, and that I've opened their eyes to a whole new sexual experience... anyway pop tarts, Milesfromthislife is being eaten by vampires on Channel 4, and I must go and watch. I've waited a long time to see that f*cker scream in agony. byebye seb +----------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list please mail "sinister(a)majordomo.net".

Sinister: Kiss Chase
by Sweet & Tender Hooligan 15 Sep '98

15 Sep '98

well i think I want to add my two cents about the album now the best trax are, in my humble opinion of course, IIWNTC and TBWTAS all of the rest are brilliant except for (IMHO again) the rather dissapointing Rollercoaster Ride. And the drumming in Dirty Dream #2 gets really, really annoying after a while But a strong 9/10 and their best album yet for sure.... and why does every Belle and Sebastian album start so quiet! Every time I listen to Tigermilk, Sinister or TBWTAS I have to turn the volume way up almost immediately! But a small price..... were they serious about rereleasing Tigermilk btw? Or was that just to quell the hecklers at the Bush. Which was good wasn't it? Wow. So close to the front!. I was one away from the barrier almost directly in front of Stuart. Next to my friend that decided to crouch down during the inexorable wait. I also got the first bottle of water from the funny lookin' guy (no offence man) in the red shirt. Thanx for that. oh I was wearing all blue - with a turquoise t-shirt. Didn't the DJ look like Fatboy Slim? oh and if anyone wants to reply to this message and wants me to read it, then don't put it on the list. I have to trawl through the archives because of my damned email address. It'll accept normal mails but not list mails for some reason - so I was ejected. I just have to select the juicy bits of news by clicking on anything by David or Katrina. anyways gotta go Northy ______________________________________________________ "If home life wasn't unsatisfactory, we'd never leave" the Breakfast Club - 1984 ________________________________________________________ +----------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list please mail "sinister(a)majordomo.net".

by Chris Leonard 15 Sep '98

15 Sep '98

I'm terrifically delighted to announce Mr. Steve Genge the winner of the competition!!!!! He guessed Neil the manager has 31456 hairs in his sideburns, which is uncannily only 2 HAIRS OUT! Are you gay lovers, or what? TA TA TA TAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Couldn't have happened to a nicer fellow. Get me your address and the fabulous prize of a picture of elvis dancing in a big woolly jumper and steven pastels fay handwriting will be winging there way down to you down there. Peter L, hard lines - send me your address anyway and you'll get something nice.....and maybe sticky. That's that then. Stuart Murdoch wrote: >Some fucking knob from a broadsheet who presumes he can speak for >you in saying that we walk a fine line with you. What the fuck has he got to >do with it! Hey Stuart, I know your new to the list an all, but do you think all this swearing is really necessary? This used to be such a nice place. I bet you don't speak like that in the church hall. Hah, only kidding of course it's lovely that mr murdoch made the effort to write. Makes me feel a little more worthwhile. And makes me happier to know that I can swear freely and still love and be loved by God. i'm off to look at that live cam thing again. c +----------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list please mail "sinister(a)majordomo.net".

Sinister: pedal pushers
by Heinitz 15 Sep '98

15 Sep '98

pedal pushers are indeed the worst item of clothing ever, they look SO bad. whoever it was suggested isobel was wearing them to fit in with the natives, GRRRRRR. though not exactly an inhabitant of leeds, i'm not far away so i have to feel slighted by that remark. about the Event, i am interested in such a thing - do i count? (obligatory self-deprecating/fishing-for-compliments type of statement). oh, i just remembered, two of my brothers live in edinburgh so there would be quite handy, but anywhere's okay, as long as it's not too far south. dream update: last night i dreampt of some wonderfully gorgeous shoes, which were silver and glittery blue, not my usual type of thing at all but i think it is now my fate to spend my life searching for a real-life equivalent. abi, who's going to be watching alternative nation tonight like a hawk. well, a short sighted hawk. with nhs glasses. more of an owl, i suppose. +----------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list please mail "sinister(a)majordomo.net".
