Von Spotting Opportunity?

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.

The Psychedelic Furs are playing their first UK gigs since 1991 (and we all know how long ago THAT is, due to that being about the same time as our Hero last released anything :innocent:,) in fact their first gigs outside the States since they got back together in 2000:

23/6/05: London / Shepherds Bush Empire (tickets on sale May 11th @ 9am)
24/6/05: Hyde Park / O2 Wireless Festival (tickets)
25/6/05: Dublin / TBA (TENTATIVE)

Obviously the best reason for going would be to see the Furs, who are a stupendously fantastic band in any event, but I thought I'd mention it in passing.

More details at Burned Down Days

The SBE gig is a Thursday which means getting a couple of days off work but I'm gonna see what I can do :)
Something pithy.

If it wasn't for the most loveliness of the first album...these too, would be another bag of wrongs band...


Not seen 'em since 1980 - or 1, I forget - prolly will stay that way too ;)

Ha! The Mish toured with them as support back in 1987 - I think. Funny geezers.
