I'm back home in London now after the Gent and Eindhoven gigs and I thought they were both really good. Nice modern venue in Eindhoven by the station and my hotel, good views from everywhere and the sound was good too. I watched the support band Hideous last night who I thought were pretty decent. E...

No Dylan in Amsterdam at song two.

This gig is good! Andrew's voice is stronger than the last few times in my opinion. Dylan gets out a jangly eight-string for Marian à la Wayne, some minor reworkings I think. Also, as possibly the only person in a Jesus Jones t-shirt, Jesus Jones were great!

Tickets bought for all three nights, we'll see what date they do actually take place.

A third trip to Suikerrock, yeah I'm in.

Kraków was Sisters gig 100 for me so I was pleased to achieve it at a pretty damn good gig. Klub Studio is a modern student venue which reminded me of the Belfast gig on 2014. I watched AA Williams from near the front and by the time I went to buy her CD it had all sold out which is a sign of how p...

Simon and Ingo got the signed set lists. I'm getting mine in Paris.

I now fall into the camp that thinks that in fact Columbiahalle is a rubbish venue. I never used to believe so and I don't remember much from the 2003 gig, but it really is too crowded with too little room to move around. Anyway, I made my way up the side I found a good spot to watch. As this tour h...

Just a quick review now that I am back in London. Hammaburg reminded me of Bonn 2001 in being an outdoor gig on a warm-ish evening. It seemed a well-run festival and there were plenty of Sisters t-shirts on show which augured well. This was a solid gig; Andrew's voice sounded a lot stronger than in ...

I've bought my ticket now.

I've got my ticket, it'll be my first trip to Poland.

Yeah I've got my ticket.

Got my ticket.

Yeah I'm going to this as well.

I will do both nights in London + Hamburg + Paris + Luxembourg + the 2 nights in Brussels which will be announced in a short notice

Steven, Belgium

I would like Brussels for my 100th gig.

Tickets bought for both nights.

Yeah I've bought my ticket.

What is the merch like?

Thanks for the photos of the merch.

So what is the new merch like?

This venue is smaller than I remember from my student Friday indie nights, far too small for this gig. Jihad is sounding good though from here.

Good to meet you over a few cans, apologies for not smiling in the photo of us all! Those are some really good photos of the gig itself.

Ticket purchased. Ticket purchasing season has begun.

The biggest music news in Ireland and Northern Ireland at the moment according to the newspapers we saw is the brouhaha over Garth Brooks' (not to be confused with Garth Crooks, which would be funnier) cancelled mega-concerts in Dublin, but it didn't overshadow the two Irish gigs were great fun and ...

Yeah we'll be there beforehand.
