Sisters Live at this years Meraluna festival

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.

Neu bestätigt: THE SISTERS OF MERCY u.a.
Does that bit at the end mean UnAnnounced, or unconfirmed, or something similar in German?

Yes, I have heard some rumours a few days ago (and FAO Quiff Boy - I'm brave enough to finally post it here :lol: ). There was some talks that they were supposed to play at Zillo, but it seems that the Competition (Scorpio) got them first! I CANNOT BLOODY WAIT!!!!!!! :D :D

Blimey!
I've been to Mera Luna every year since it started, and I wasn't going to bother this year 'cause the line-up looked pants... until now! :D
Let's hope it's not another false alarm eh!?

Obviously we'll expect you to keep up the quality of your posts, now.

So new album tomorrow, right? :lol:

Huzzah and double huzzah, a festival they might not cancel, and one I know how to get to in a lovely cream Merc taxi whilst bladdered.

For those who haven't been before, don't eat anything from the Squid stall unless you want to spend most of Ribbons throwing up in a bin bag.

A useful aspect of Mera Luna is that you can turn up on the day without a ticket, string a barely related incoherent group of psuedo-german words together at a man in a small green hut, and he somehow magically understands that you want a weekend ticket with camping and directions to an off-licence. :notworthy:

Try that at Reading.
