Bands you,ve never seen but wished you could

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.

Is it just me, or does the name of aforementioned band sound like a particularly creative description from a particularly poor work of Yaoi? :lol:

I saw Sisterhood supporting The Cult in 86, but I wish it would have been the other Sisterhood. ;D
Put their heads on f*cking pikes in front of the venue for all I care.

i've only seen the cult once,and by then they were all american rock-gods :urff: it was at the NEC on the sonic temple tour and though they were good,they were a bit distant (NEC-wise and heads-up-arseholes -wise).i'ld like to have seen them as Death Cult ,or "dreamtime" era at the latest.

other bands i've seen who i'ld like to have seen an earlier incarnation of -siouxsie (nocturne as opposed to peepshow); AC/DC,with Bon Scott; hawkwind space-ritual era with lemmy and bob calvert, who'ld just carc'ed it when i saw them -didn't even do silver-machine!
Well I was handsome and I was strong
And I knew the words to every song.
"Did my singing please you?"
"No! The words you sang were wrong!"

A funny moment at this show was, when Wuzzi came on stage at the end of the Cult set with a flower between his teeth and Astbury introduced him: "And that's my wife." ;D :lol:

I saw The Sisterhood turn into The Mish at The Electric Ballroom. And on the subject of Psychic TV I saw them headlining Basildon Peace Festioval once :lol: with brand new act Erasure way down the bill :x :lol:

To the question -

Japan
Bauhaus
The Smiths
Pink Floyd

These are the main ones that always come up for me, that I could have but didn't as opposed to was too young.
