Is this legit?

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.

I'm just curious that's all. The photos not particulary clear and I thought the bands name would have been mentioned on the plaque? But then I've never seen one in real life so know nothing.

The picture is a bit confusing: could be in colour but might as well be black/white; I know this though I wouldn't bid on it :|

He's probably due an Iridium disc or some such!

I've always wondered about hese award discs - Is just one made, and presented to the band? or is one made for EACH band member (meaning that there would be four of these silver disc thingies in existence)?

and do other countries besides the UK give out awards for record sales?

just curious

Far more widespread than just the band members.
A friends dad used to work for a record label (sales & marketing dept) & he could request gold or silver discs from any band on the label. they had loads hanging on the kitchen wall :eek:

I'm guessing that the band, management, producer, engineer & record company execs are nailed on to be presented with a disc. Other people in the record company probably have a chance of blagging one if they know the right people.

And the album in the frame is usually not the album being celebrated - having actually played one on a record deck it's usually just one of many such coloured discs used for such an occasion.
