12 years...

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.

It has been 12 years since the release of "A slight case of overbombing" yesterday IIRC :eek:

Also 12 years since the last Kate Bush album. A new one is due in November - obviously she and Von were in a reverse race and Von won.

Didn't Von say he'd like Kate to produce a future Sisters album?

And whenever I listen to her songs I can't stop thinking how good they'd sound together. :(

As far as I know Von thought the same, Emma, but Kate declined... :roll:

Actually Taylor hits the nail on the head in that its well time that there was a Sisters DVD with Wake, Shot, all the promos, Whistle Test would make a good bonus as its the only tw appearence that is live.

That would be smashing! But I can't wait for a DVD with the "recent" gigs.

the bbc will still hold copyright for the whistle test stuff, so i doubt that would ever appear on anything other than another bbc whistletest retrospective dvd (volume 19 anyone? :lol: ).

which is a shame :|

i happen to know that the bbc still have the original whistle test broadcast tape forthat episode in their archives... with the timecode stamp in the top corner and everything :o

if you work for the bbc you can take stuff out of their archive system to borrom - for "research" purposes :lol:

until recently a lot of their archive was stored at the woodhouse lane studios in leeds. guess it could be anywhere now though as it close down recently (last year i think?).

Even so, would there not be pretty tight restrictions on the borrowing? Archives are notoriously protective of their collections and I imagine there would need to be a very good reason to borrow any BBC footage. I like the idea though. :)

"Best", or better yet "Beast". Not very likely "Breast". :roll:

PS. I'm just putting words together here, they doesn't actually mean something. I've always thought of "Two worlds apart" as a good title.
