Indeed, not sure if @DungBeetle was writing positively of "the other team" or negatively in relation to TSOM. Two completely different bands, the link is almost as helpful these days as comparing the ?live? ?recorded? output of SSS, GenX, EM or AAE with TSOM... :roll: The other team was e...
But it must be said. After years of needling and invites from my friends who've supported "the other team" since it was founded. I relented and last weekend traveled to LA to see the back-to-back of two nights with "Team Wayne" and I fear that's damaged the whole of this reality...
I sincerely hope that Dylan returns to the band and joins them soon mid-tour. Without him, the Sisters might have just withered away and ended during the US bioweapon lockdown , instead of returning with a brand new set of fresh songs. *lol* Sure, the SARS-CoV-2 has definitely, undisputably and rel...
Do gig review/photos go here or in a separate part of the forum? Was on the RC site trying to find their recent goth based issue and saw these were on their site from the 23rd. A few nice photos, no review though. Interestingly, RC hasn't covered The Sisters since 1987?! https://recordcollectormag.c...
Looks good, thanks! I've no idea how you did it. When I tried I clicked round and round through various pages and got nowhere. The time before that when I tried a few months ago I think I found an upload page but it wanted me to input a load of copyright info... I thought it'd be a simple case of c...
I sometimes forget that not everyone remembers the same kinds of bizarre trivia that I do.. like the thing about Von being approached to do Banzai back in the day ought to surely be canon but apparently... it's not? Is it? Of course it is, it's on the website Ah yes, of course. But Ben's drama degr...
Not just metal, but really bad, out-of-place metal. It was horrendous at first, and after the 'Motorhead years' of Mr Whammy and Starling the early Ben years seemed like one of Von's sick jokes. Warmed a little in 2011, predominantly by Rain From Heaven, and was completely won over in 2015 with his...

The head is facing the wrong way! https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Sisters_of_Mercy So far it's caused several people to get the wrong tattoo, as well as on some guys laser inscribed thingummybob (but at least it wasn't a tattoo and he can easily throw it away and make another!) If they used that ...
A review with a handful of photos ".... Dylan Smith’s origins are probably somewhere on the internet, but wherever they are they’re not easy to find" ummm... " ...laptop man’s origins are as difficult to discover as his name is.... " ummm... Not the most astute journalist here, ...
Interesting perspective Stiltfoxx, you get the honour of being a gig that will go down in folklore anyway. Welcome to the forum! See, some people just don't appreciate that it's when something is unusual that the most memorable nights are made! :lol: :lol: :lol: I remember more of the gigs that wen...
Blimey! Sorry for having an opinion I’m sure! As for the new account, I’ve been a member here for many years, admittedly haven’t logged in for maybe a year or so, and couldn’t remember my password. Submitted a pwd reset and it never came through, hence new account. I hope that’s ok with you. My apo...
Yeah, All fair comment. I suppose where I'm coming from is trying to imagine how I'd feel walking onto the stage with Von to try to carry off the gig on Saturday night as Ben did. Like, Chris C is there in the back ground to run the 1s and 0s, but otherwise it's just two people, one of whom is very...
No idea how many times I’ve seen the sisters over the years, must be at least 20 times. This was, without doubt, worst show I’ve ever seen. God knows what was going on with eldritch, my guess was he was wasted, but the way he left Ben to cover most of the vocals was a joke. I didn’t spend almost £1...
One final thing, I don't understand Andrew's insistence on singing songs that clearly bring out the worst in his voice. Valentine, Black Sail, War on Drugs, There's A Door, She's A Monster, Colours even, any of the more spoken style lyrics he can do easily, the strained cat without the high notes i...
(I live two mins walk from the venue, although I am hoping to have sold my flat by the time this comes round) So if not sold by then, could I sub-let the flat from you for a couple of nights in mid-November? :innocent: :innocent: :innocent: :lol: :lol: :lol: 8) I am jesting.. But I did just spend a...
Let's hope the sound and therefore Dylan's mood is better. Bound to be setlist changes. Praying, likely in vain, for a deep cut - Walk Away, Rain from Heaven, f**k it Finland Red Egypt White why not When did they last play any of those? *lol* I mean RfH was played a lot a few years back (it all blu...
I didn't see any of the drama on the right hand side of the stage with Dylan (only heard about it in the Enterprise after the gig). Very much enjoyed the re-arranged FALAA - almost back to the old arrangement. Von was definitely wandering the barricades on the left hand side of the stage, seemed to...

Chris being on stage was the highlight of that gig. And the part after the out of time guitarist left the stage.
. Also, is he the first ex-Sister to ever return to the stage with the girls? Yes/no. yes: we never saw anyone leaving the sisters returning on the stage. no: technically speaking, and according to Chris himself, he never left the band. Dave left then came back. Chris Starling left, then came back....
I'm still waiting for mine also. If you bought them with Ticketmaster for some reason the Roundhouse handle them but don't send them out til ridiculously late. Really annoying! :roll: This, and Roundhouse being not for profit, are why I always buy directly from them, never via another site. Well, I...
This night is my birthday. So after the gig i will be heading off to continue my celebrations. Obviously all of you beautiful people are more than welcome to join us. At the time of writing i'm planning on going to Club Antichrist whch is a fetish/burlesque all-nighter affair You're on your own wit...
