John Cale

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.

Anyone seen John Cale on his UK tour yet? I caught him at Bristol on Friday night and impressed and it gave hope for someone like Eldritch. Cale played for about 2 hours, mixing old new and even throwing a medley of Femme Fatale and Rosegarden Funeral Of Sores. No Venus In Furs though.
Not bad for a 63 year old man, he looked and sounded alot younger.

As I said there's hope for Eldo yet. Cale released his first solo album in years with Hobosapiens and followed it last year with Black Acetate. Both are well worth a listen for those of you with an open mind and were well received.

And wasn't A Rock And A Hard Place about Cale? Or did I miss hear on a bootleg somewhere. A question for the trainspotters among us.

Err not quite. Isn't that Lloyd Cole & The Commotions. This is John Cale from The Velvet Underground.

the things you do in Denver, when you're dead.... pfffff
