Do any of you...

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.

Do any of you take note of people you see with sisters t-shirts on? Obviously they are a lot more rare nowadays! But recently in glasgow i have seen a guy with a leather jacket with the head star logo on the back, a woman with a sisters long sleeved top, and a guy yesterday with a sisters t-shirt. Never seen any in aberdeen or edinburgh yet....very disappointing!

Last one I saw was a woman on the tube a few months back. I invited her to join Heartland. I've not heard from her or seen her since ... :roll:

I've never seen a single one in Glasgow other than my own, though judging from the number of Weegies on this board I should have.

I once saw a car with a massive logo right over the back window. I just stood and gawped at it. It was in the car park next to Partick station, didn't belong to anyone here by any chance?

The car was black BTW! :wink:

I had a number of funny conversations starting with, Hey i like your T-shirt. sometimes it takes a while before guy's realise I'm talking about the image on it :wink:
they are very rare though :( and most of them don't know of my heartland
But I have seen a few car's driving around with the MR logo on the back, maybe you Izzy :innocent:

With "Goff" on the number plate? More of a very dark green colour, than black. I used to walk pass that every day on my way to work, when I lived in the West End. :roll:

I wear my old 1991 Sisters top, and I saw someone wearing one that looked in far better condition (black, not grey like mine) at The Damned's gig.

I could buy a short sleeved Merciful Release top here though, as one shop does have a couple in.

I tend to stick to a small sisters badge on the lapel of my jacket (the symbol from the front of the Walk Away 12") as a discreet sign to the illuminati.

My bag, which I cart about with me wherever I'm going, come rain or shine, has a lovely little patch on it with the MR logo and "Sisters Of Mercy, 1985" around. And a little Cult iron cross badge. I'm ever so proud of it... 8)

Apparently this year's "must have" t-shirt is the Ramones. I saw a guy wearing one the other day, went over and said "hey, you like the Ramones? Gabba gabba hey!"

The guy gave me a withering look and said "it's a fashion thing. Get over yourself." :eek:

I've got one for Christmas! Supposedly. Must be way ahead of my time. 8) Or a fashion victim ... :|

But my current fashion tip is 'you can never have enough pointy-boots'. Thank you. :von:

I used to wear my "F..k me and marry me youg" skinny Tee. It certainly got me noticed :D But I've lost it somewhere so now my fav is the girlie "People's republic" - which is much more subtle. Other people in TSOM T-Shirts? well... you do see them sometimes, but its a lot more rare - you were right! BTW - if anybody knows where to byu F..k me and merry me young T-Shirt, please let me know - I'm about to get divorced so it may be useful soon :?

I've seen nary a soul with a Sisters T in the US of A of late. Apparently, the T shirt of Jay Z smoking a cigar and wearing a Knicks jersey is far more popular...
