THE place for your Sisters-related comments, questions and snippets of Sisters information. For those who do not know, The Sisters of Mercy are a rock'n'roll band. And a pop band. And an industrial groove machine. Or so they say. They make records. Lots of records, apparently. But not in your galaxy. They play concerts. Lots of concerts, actually. But you still cannot see them. So what's it all about, Alfie? This is one of the few tightly-moderated forums on Heartland, so please keep on-topic. All off-topic posts will either be moved or deleted. Chairman Bux is the editor and the editor's decision is final. Danke.

Feeling slightly inspired by this

I thought why not collect as many quips from
in one place?
Sarcastic, snarky & just plain odd. There are a fair few.
Enjoy the puppet show (reference to DM at Crystal Palace 93)
This one's for all the students on the balcony. It's called Amphetamine Logic.....it's about......logic (Newcastle 85)
Got any gems you can think of?

Well, there
is a One-liners section of the Official website...
But who really goes there?

"This is a song about cars, speed, speed and more speed. But above all, it's about speed. This is called Heartland."
The fundamental cause of the trouble is that in the modern world the stupid are cocksure while the intelligent are full of doubt.

From the NEC in '93:
"Your problem is that you were always 10 years too early" (after playing intro to 1959, before launching into 1969)
"Shut up!" (silencing the silly people who didn't think that
's
a capella rendition of Stop Dragging My Heart Around was worth the entrance fee)
"I won't go down in history, but I probably will go down on your sister."

I was one of the ugly people in the balcony
It wasn't really a balcony but it was the outside bit of the cycle track in a velodrome.
And it was the best show they ever played, so there!

"Mumble mumble mumble mumble."
Most shows from the last ten years.
Any more of that and we'll be round your front door with the quick-setting whitewash and the shaved monkey.

"This song was written by a bald man."
Then later in the same gig before Gimme Shelter
"This was written by a bald man too."
