Heartland

So got mine earlier today, cranking it for the neighbours right now. So far so good, the Body & Soul side has the correct version of Body Electric, and the Walk Away side adds Long Train, so it was at least compiled by somebody who knows what they're doing. It does feel a bit of a cheap package...

In a few weeks Im off to see Christian Death for the first time. Seeing their colourful history I'm curious how they are live.... anybody seen them?

So here's another instrument wich I have transported to this magical forest I've created :wink: It's a Fender EL Rio semi-acoustic. Again it's made from paper, balsawood and yarn. Height: 10,5 centimeters I create with materials that is the less harmfull to nature as possible. It's to inspire and w...

I like this one

Welcome and I hope you enjoy your new time with The Sisters of Mercy.

I read your message about your new found passion for the Sisters on some FB site and your words were a change from the usual complaining that normally follow the band.

I was also in Groningen and they were great.

Strange line up for me in 2024:

NMA - Utrecht NL 29/3
Hugh Cornwell - Zwolle NL 24/4
Christian Death - Drachten NL 31/5
Rammstein - Nijmegen NL 18/6 (but I may sell the ticket)
Rammstein - Nijmegen NL 19/6
Adele - Munich DE 30/8
Cerys Hafana - Groningen NL 17/10
NMA - Amsterdam 15/12

For anybody interested you can also buy the test pressings

The postcard side with the text "what you have...." etc does also... if you look carefully have in faint letters "The Sisterhood" and "Gift" in the backgorund. Or have I got a very rare one....

My postcard was just loose in the package.... not in the record sleeve. Almost threw it away by mistake.

Being of a certain age, it's impossible for me to hear that Shakespeare quote without adding "and consign their parts most private to a Rutland tree".

That was the alternative title to Gift.

I'll get the Sisters release... we don't get to pick up a new Sisters record every day, so it's a novelty if nothing else! That's an odd combo though - I could understand No Time To Cry and Walk Away being packaged together, but Body & Soul is kind of a stand alone thing - separate from the alb...

It's a real photo, that's a real dressing room. It just looks fake due to being massively resized. I'm sure there's a full-size original on an SD card somewhere but the reason it looks a bit weird is because it was resized from a very small picture which is being used in promotional graphics/flyers...

Looking at AEs arm it looks like the backgorund has been added on.... what was worse than this background?

Forgot to mention a stage invasion by some drunken bloke during This Corrosion. And now with a clip of the stage invader (not my vid- my thanks to the uploader) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gLcWhgtyE38 That's actually pretty cool. At 1:10, the guy gets up on stage and the side-stage roadie/secur...

Quick review. Great night. Vocals were good... could have been a little louder.... but still ok. Great show. Kai brings dramatic enthousiasm. AE seemed fine. Miss Crash and Burn.

I hadnt seen it mentioned but I was surprised with the 23/24 tour shirt. It even had the new dates.

Nice design.

Same setlist I believe as the past few shows.

I can really imagine that people who were there were disappointed. But the level of bitterness coming from FB makes me ask why the hell would anybody who hates the band so much still bother to go and see them. It also surprises me that no one there (on FB) seems to criticise the video as an attack ...

Does "karaoke" refer to the fact that the Doktor is playing most of the instruments? As I say, at least you can hear Von these days, even if it's a gutteral gurgle It refers to the fact that watching that video makes it look like two old men trying to sing a long to a well known rock song...

It does look a bit like karaoke.... but then again Im still looking forward to seeing them next week.
