Sinister: And when honey wakes up, all her friends wake up too...
by Hewitt, Stephen 21 Sep '05

21 Sep '05

[insert long rambling bagpuss parody with Stuart Gardiner as Gabriel the toad probably, ending with "...but loulu loved her"] ello babies I'm sure there must be some sort of decent BOUZER in the barbican vicinity for Sunday afternoon pre-gig jollity, but frankly one isn't springing to mind, I'm assuming that one out the back (if it's open on a Sunday) will be stowed out and, frankly it's a bit rub anyway. We may have to head to clerkenwell, where at least there are some nice pubs (it is a wasteland for green spaces though, lincoln's inn field is about the closest and it's aaages away). I'm sure something will sort itself out though. We could always have a picnic by the fountains in the barbie itself, but I don't think they're too keen on having gangs of vagrants (even lovely ones like YOU) hanging about not buying their food and drink... I also understand the Kitchenettes are having some sort of gathering, maybe we should engineer some sort of jets/sharks situation on the barbican patio and have AN DANCE OFF! Anyway, from Another Place (well from pitchfork originally, not that I read it you understand, but hey, PH34R my content): Fresh from contributing their song "The Eighth Station of the Cross Kebab House" to the Help: A Day in the Life benefit compilation, Belle and Sebastian have let slip even more details about their forthcoming album. As we previously reported, the disc will be titled The Goalkeeper's Revenge, and will feature such songs as "A White Collared Boy", "Act of the Apostle Part I", "Another Sunny Day", "Funny Little Frog", "Song For Sunshine", and "Sukie in the Graveyard". FUNNY LITTLE FROG???? This better be some sort of balls out rocker and not the twee nursery rhyme the title suggests or I fear it may rival TEH CLUNKER... I got married, but then that was six years ago and only a month or so after I first joined the list, so I reckon most of you knew that anyhoo. However, I haven't seen mention of the wedding of Nickie Byrne, extremely late of this parish, which I attended in Dublin a month or so ago. Dicky Knee, also very late of this parish, was the best man and a lovely time was had by all, and it's good to see (possibly only in a very specific millieu admittedly) that TWATTYBUS (the song) is now actual wedding disco music, hurrah! Despite having been a commited badge-wearer for donkey's years, I recently have been badge-free (which considering the number of so-called young persons one sees covered in badges these days one can only assume they haf left the fashion wilderness just as I can't be botherd with them anymore, typical), EXCEPT for my upside-down bowlie kid badge on my hat what I wear at festivals. I think it better make a comeback for Sunday though, if only so people can say "have you still got that disgusting rusted thing? Also why is it upside-down?" Looking through the list of those of you who have delurked over the past month it is disturbing/delightful how many of you I have met, and each delurk has been met with an "blimey, it's [x]." actually this goes for all of you I haven't met too (yes, YOU). Hmmm, not the best of sentences, there. You know what I mean though :) xoxo CarsmileSteve +-------------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail sinister(a)missprint.org.

Sinister: You're just a Barbi(can) (PRE-GIG PICNIC SUNDAY 25th SEPTEMBER?)
by kenneth.chu＠uclh.nhs.uk 20 Sep '05

20 Sep '05

Hello guys! It's been a while since I last posted! I didn't get married! I don't even think I snogged anyone! Oh well! So, erm, I don't recall reading too much about the BARBICAN gig on this bitch (I know this, for sure, because I did an "ADVANCED FIND" on my sinister email folder and it only came back with 7 answers - Yes I'm so smart and tech-savvy!) ARE YOU GUYS COMING? ARE YOU EXCITED? I remember I was soooooo excited in 2001 when B+S were playing two days in a row at the Barralands in Glasgow. First B+S gig it bloody was. I'm actually really excited about this IYFS all the way through bonanza! I love that album and I like how it's ordered. I like how albums are ordered. I was similarly excited once at the Somerset House show last summer, when they did The State I'm In, Expectation, She's Losing It, and then You're Just A Baby and I was like OH MY GOD THIS ROCKS. But then there was no Electronic Renaissance. I'm glad that it was played in Perth. I hope this means they will also play this at the barbican thing. And new songs from the new album! Is there a support band for this gig? Haha, I'm so excited I didn't even check! I hope it's someone good. Like Terrorvision or something. HERE COMES THE SCIENCE BIT! CONCENTRATE ======================================== Oh! The point of the email! So who's coming to this bitch? Fancy a picnic/pubnic pre-gig? Yeah go on! ONLY THING IS, I HAVE NO IDEA WHERE, JUST YET. The Barbican is in a stupid place with no real greenery nearby (except this field that is a cemetery!) but who's to say we can't meet up elsewhere first? IT ALL DEPENDS WHO WANTS TO COME. SO EMAIL ME IF YOU WANT, TO COME! OR JUST FLIRT. Wait that's Gay Chat. Sorry. But e-mail me if you want to come. To summarise: If you are going to the barbican and/or would like to picnic on Sunday 25th(that's THIS COMING SUNDAY) afternoon, give me an e-mail! YAY!

Sinister: REporting Back: Perthonal Jesus
by Calumn 20 Sep '05

20 Sep '05

Hello all! I've been watching you from the sidelines and I'd just like to say: It's good to have you back in my inbox, I had a feeling everyone had drifted away! I, myself, have been putting off writing for a while now - I was waiting until I had some "content" to provide, you know, the sort of thing that all 1500 (ish) of you might concievably want to look at. So First things First: I went to the Perth gig - I did! Honest! Were any of you there? I didn't see you, sorry. I'd have bought you a drink too, I'm that kind of guy. so, content! A Mini Style review: Stuart was wearing his "Eat the Rich" T-shirt, but it had shrunk - so it was awfully tight. One for the girls! Stevie was all besuited and looking Mighty Sharp. As Per. Beanz was in "colours" The Jury is still out as to whether they are this or last years. Ditto. Bob and Mick were in "fashion shirt" and denim troos. Smart, but Casual. I couldn't realy see the others, althought the backing violin / whistling girl with the ripped denims was awfully cute! For the completists (and David Moore, if he still does this kind of thing) The Setlist! Stars of Track and Field Seeing Other People Dylan in the Movies The Wrong Girl Meat And Potatoes Lonliness of the Middle Distance Runner The Boy Done Wrong Again Electronic Renaissance White Collar Boy Then a wee break, while they worked out a cover of: Olivers Army (Including "Stevie Jacksons Impeccable Elvis Costello Impersonation") Another Sunny Day If You're Feeling Sinister Woman's Realm Fox in The Snow Mayfly Me And The Major To be Myself Completely (I think, I misssed it as I was at THE BAR) The Boy With The Arab Strap If You Find Yourself Caught in Love Judy & The Dream of Horses The Obligatory Encores were: I'm a Cuckoo and Sleep the Clock Around. So we only missed out on "Get Me Away From Here, I'm Dying" and we'd have gotten all of Sinsiter, just in the wrong order - Barbican? Hah! Electronic Renaissance was a highlight - with Struan "Feeling like Val Doonagan" as he was singing from the mixing stage - then having to get security to help him get back on stage! Another highlight: someone in the crowd stage left requesting "Arab Strap!!!" and someone stage right shouting "Good Idea!" Calumn's Mini review of the Perth Gig... Good. Other news? I'm not married(1), don't have a cold (2)and haven't camped out in any deserts (3) lately. I never made it to Mono to see the much-hyped Jens Lekman gig(4), so missed everyone that was going (5). Pretty much Business As Usual round my way. Sorry. Calumn 1) At least, I don't think I am - last weekend got pretty hazy. 2) My "Take a Break" Tip for Sarah & Stacy: Tea with blended whisky (Bells or Grouse works well) has all the benefits and saves the good stuff for when you can taste it properly! 3) Or desserts. 4) But DID get to meet him, so it's all good. 5) Is The Duke still "Keeping the Faith"? PS - Are we still wearing our badges upside down? PPS - I just worked out how to set Gmail to Plain Text - Sorry Honey, I thought it was. +-------------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail sinister(a)missprint.org.

RE: Sinister: All dressed up in ass-kickin' leather
by Sarah J Clarke 20 Sep '05

20 Sep '05

Good morning, I'm not on a tape tree, but lately I have been listening to Casetteboy, does that count? OK I haven't really. He's a noisy little oik and I have a feeling he likes Harry Potter "that way". You know. The BUMSEXXING WAY. Of course I don't approve. I have moved house recently and when I unpacked my records the first thing I listened to was BLUES FOR CEE.. CAE.. Ch... some dude by the Fatima Mansions. ON SEVEN INCHES of VINYL. Fear it. And then I listened to the Wolfhounds, then Rave Nation 92 and then Scritti Politti. Then I got ill and I have been mainlining Scott Walker ever since. In the height of red-nosed snotty gribble, I do like to take a walk in the early morning and brandish my umbrella along to those soaring strings; o! those soaring trumpets! And, O! those peons SMITED by an over-enthusiastic twirl. Apparently the um, Inter-Terrestrials? or something, appear to be the gang du choix in trendy SE London WHODATHUNKIT. I read this on a bridge, where I get all my information from. Anyway, Stacey sorry to hear you have a cold. I have one too. My whisky of choice is Scapa. I know, shouldn't waste it on a cold but any excuse eh. Pop Issues: Frank Ferguson - I can't remember what their new single sounds like Charlotte Church - hooray! Pussycat Dolls - make me a little uneasy Anything else?

Sinister: hullo all
by jim taylor 19 Sep '05

19 Sep '05

Erm well it's been a while...where to start? I'm not sure what to type about Liz as I'm feeling a bit lacking in eloquence this morning, but I was moved to be at the funeral along with so many of you, and thought it was a fitting follow on gathering in her memory. I'll say no more. I've thought of her and Rob during my travels. Another sinister birthday has ticked by, I was sorry to not be around for celebrations but hope to be seeing a few folk at the barbican on Sunday? I just got back from a month in the mainly high altitude desert that is Ladakh, Northern India and more specifically the western end of the Tibetan plain. I'll save finer points of socio-political discussion with big Stu for another time, but I learned lots (trekking, staying with families in remote villages, visited plenty of gompas, long chats with a Rinpoche) and erm better let folk know... I got married! Aside from both sets of parents being informed by an email ending (I paste:) "...p.s. Got married yesterday!! no joke - see attached photo and zoom in on rings :)" There are amusing photos of Sarah & I in traditional dress getting hitched by a Lama. One of the strangest phone calls on my return this weekend was with a fellow sinisterine as we swapped news, but I better let him share his... Of course the our £2 each wedding rings of 'pure silver' with "om mani padme hum" in Tibetan sold to us by a market trader turn out to be a bit closer to brass I think, but the £1.50 engagement ring does appear to live up to its sterling billing. The Mrs (or Ms?) will be along on Sunday for her 2nd B&S experience, so we'll some of you then :) love jim P.S. thanks for all your efforts honey! +-------------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail sinister(a)missprint.org.

Sinister: thoughts of intent in LA
by John Wojcik 17 Sep '05

17 Sep '05

As I write from my hotel room in LA, my thoughts turn to my sweet busstopper Sara, and what has become of her. Every time I come to LA, I manage to see her. Sweet, pure, my valentine. Platonic love, trust, simple and complete. I call, her cell phone number rings and another person answers. She must of cancelled it. It is sad that I don't know how to get in touch with her, and I wont get to see her when I'm on the west coast this time. DJing is not going well. Last time at the venue, the band didn't show, and their crowd of friends and bar customers. While it is not important to me personally for them to spend, it is of course important for the owner to make a few bucks so that she can keep the space open, and provide me with a place to spin. I do it for the love of the music, and honestly not much else. Its not easy to choose and to haul two crates of music and assorted gear from Jersey to Williamsburg. And its completely disheartining to spin to only the bartender and the uninterested people that run frequently to the bathroom, in pairs, for my self-deceptingly mysterious, but plainly obvious reasons. I have a girl I am in like with. I can't tell her all of what will follow, but I love the fact that she is too busy to see me becuase she needs to create the architecturial drawings for a beach house in California. When I meet a girl, I look into the future and see what it holds. If I cant see past the third conversation or unrequited sushi, I often politely demure, and decide this person is better as a friend. The architect girl I see - 5 years from now - her and I interviewed by the NY times about the house she designed in upstate New York, built on 20 acres. The picture in the article would have me standing behind her, with my hand on her shoulder, both following and helping. The house, of course, would eventually be well known and its aspects would be taught as the quintessential example of her style and design. Architecturial students, years from now, would make a pilgrimage to see. She would welcome them and chat freely. I would bring to the porch sun steeped, sweetened, lemon ice tea, and perhaps something to eat, depending on how far they travelled and their general niceness. Even if introverted and aloof, I would welcome them as I cannot turn down a conversation about design, furniture or any subject that makes my architect wife feel accomplished and happy. While I have only a raincheck to meet her for sushi when I get back, and have not actually broken bread or shared a spicy tuna roll, it is much too early to tell her any of this. But I am sure, at the right time, all of my hopes for us will be something sweet to say and will be said. Something so detailed and well thought out is, of course, sincere and true. Being as perceptive and insightful as she is, she will come to the same conclusion. On the face of it, it is all just a nice thing to say. But her realizing what went into the creation of an attainable and very possible futute, is what I hope to accomplish. Words are important but inaccurate. Intent is real. I read this, and I think that I dont really know this person, and she does not know me. Things may not work out the way I hope that they will, and conclude with a happy future. This last statement is meaningless. Things never work out perfectly tailored to the perfect future. I preach to my friends that life is about risk. I need to start living that myself.

Sinister: All dressed up in ass-kickin' leather
by stacey dahling 17 Sep '05

17 Sep '05

I've received my first sinister tape tree CD and it's a gem! Mmmm delightful! I had considered doing an mp3 tree or podcast or something actually... but I've a soft spot for old fashioned post-related communication. (And, admittedly don't exactly know how podcasts work... eeps!) Maybe after the tree is completed/collapsed we can upload the playlists/mp3 selections to share with everyone else. Maybe. We'll see. One thing at a time. In other news, I've been ill with a horrid cold/flu. Practically bed-ridden for the past two days. I managed to drag myself into work yesterday, but my death rattle cough sufficiently scared my co-workers into begging me to leave an hour into the shift. HA! Even with an amazing nonstop LOST marathon to keep me entertained, it was NO FUN! (The subsequent jungle nightmares and visions of giant spiders attacking me upon waking were a bit scary as well.) And now I totally empathise with those who have long-term illnesses like ME. I got restless after one day laying about, I can't imagine month-long stretches! Eeps! I ran into Stuart last weekend, freshly returned from America and all pouty about the preparation he has to do for upcoming shows. And what weird shows they're playing, too. Besides the magnificent sounding Barbicon gig - which I shall sadly miss :( - they're playing some strange ghetto festival, and helping open the new Perth concert hall. Coney Island looks fun tho. I've never been. His hair has grown out a bit, and makes him look years younger. Nice. He's also got new Doc Marten boots with his name embroidered in the tab! Like a posh footballer or something... only in ass-kicking leather! Cos he's so hard. HA! Hmmm. Looks like our other Glasgow friends, Franz Ferdinand, are poised for yet further success. Yay for them eh? I must say, I was secretly delighted by the results of the Mercury music prize this year. Those pompous Franz wannabies, Kaiser Chiefs, were certain they had bagged the prize, only to have relative nobodies Antony and the Johnsons scoop it up from under their collective stuck-up noses. Wahay! Plus, it was victory for Secretly Canadian, record label of my beloved Jens! There is justice after all. Well, a little bit. Occasionally. Wow. Charlotte Church sure is dirty these days. *Shudder* Oh, I can't wait for the new Camera Obscura album. They have a new website http://www.camera-obscura.net and it's so fab! Okay, I'm beginning to bore even myself here. Time to go and make another hot toddy. Ha! The one benefit of being ill is the excuse for warm whisky at 9am. -stacey _________________________________________________________________ FREE pop-up blocking with the new MSN Toolbar - get it now! http://toolbar.msn.click-url.com/go/onm00200415ave/direct/01/ +-------------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail sinister(a)missprint.org.

Sinister: California dreaming
by Matilda Liljedahl 16 Sep '05

16 Sep '05

Hi everyone Thanks, Honey, for the Stuart and ME link. I really enjoyed reading it. One of many things I liked was the detail about the California trip, because I´ve been having an obsession about California for over a year now. And the feeling just grows stronger, I don't know why. I'm inside of the dream of the golden land that I used to look upon as something childish. I was probably right, but I'll go for my dream anyway. My New years promise two years ago was to become more naive, maybe I will be, I never thoght so. Anyway I'll have to go there. I'm making a comic about a boyband who lives in California so at least I have to go and catch up some atmosphere. I'm afraid my comic will not be very authentic. I've never been to any of the united states. I've also never been a member of a boyband. But after all my intention wasn't to descibe the authentic life of a boyband. It's more about dreams, klichés, prejudices and feelings, and I know some stuff about that. Happy Summer's end to all of you. But I guess for those of you who're living in California, summer never ends. +-------------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail sinister(a)missprint.org.

Sinister: Well hello Admiral, where've you been hiding?
by Steve Peet 14 Sep '05

14 Sep '05

Hey kids I just checked the archive to see how long I'd been on this thing - first post March '99! And that was after some awkward lurking. Looking in the archive brought back some memories - I forgot how often I used to post (and how much nonsense I used to write!). So good to see so many first-posters, de-lurkers and returning old hands all at once; I thought I'd join in, despite not being quite so famous as some of the other old timers. I've never gone away and have enjoyed all of your posts over the years, so thank you. I haven't quite joined the ranks of sinisterines who've tied the knot - I still have 31 days of freedom left! I can't wait. Fiona said "this isn't a plea for the sinisterkids of the big city to come and hang out with me, but I just can't remember how you go about making a new city your own. So any advice would be much appreciated." Just get out there and hang-out. I was once that lonely person in the Monarch in Camden and I wasn't there half an hour before a bunch of lovely Sinisterkids spotted me! Does the old upside down badge thing still work? As Ian said this Friday's HDIF might be a good start? I might even put in a rare appearance myself - it might be my last chance before I move out of the big city for Brighton. Anyone else? It feels like my last outing was madly pogoing to the Aislers Set with Marc C at LSE, but that was ages ago and I must have been out since then. Well, long may this renewed vigour last! Hope to see some of you again one day.
