Doktor Avalanche's brother for sale

Does exactly what it says on the tin. Some of the nonsense contained herein may be very loosely related to The Sisters of Mercy, but I wouldn't bet your PayPal account on it. In keeping with the internet's general theme nothing written here should be taken as Gospel: over three quarters of it is utter gibberish, and most of the forum's denizens haven't spoken to another human being face-to-face for decades. Don't worry your pretty little heads about it. Above all else, remember this: You don't have to stay forever. I will understand.

Von wrote:The Doktor was an Oberheim DMX by the time we made the first album. The Oberheim had a (relatively) huge memory, it would synchronise accurately to tape via FSK and the memory could be backed up reliably onto cassette. Each drum was tunable (inside), and Oberheim offered a few alternative sounds. Events could be programmed to happen around the beat, not just on it. The DMX would flam happily. We liked the Oberheim better than the LinnDrum, which was more expensive and sounded too sterile. The DMX kicks were a bit flabby, and the snare was maybe not quite tight enough; the tom-toms were good.
And a new age was dawning: soon it became possible to send the DMX back to the factory and have ... midi! put on it.

But it can't throw a TV out of a hotel window or choke on its own vomit.
And you know that she's half crazy but that's why you want to be there.

Not so sure about that. I reckon a slurry of lager and roasted peanuts would play havoc with its sliders.

Does it have the facility to die in a bizarre gardening accident?

I can move from other sections. :P

Have Sisters Zippo, will travel. :roll:
Loki was never worshiped as the other Gods,
Which is quite understandable.
