Agreed!

At the Electric 6 gig last year one of them grabbed me by the collar and threatened to kick me out of the venue, for spilling one of the cup's of water that he was handing out.

That's way over the top Si

, I remember gigs through the 80's & 90's, Fields of the Nephilim, NMA, Motorhead, The Damned, The Stranglers, The m*****n, The Cult, Levellers, Ramones, there was crowd surfing, Towers and all sorts of goings on, there was no way a bouncer could ever get near enough to the "circle" at gigs to through anyone out, what the fcuk has happened ?

Well when I say spill, I actually meant chucking them over my shoulder so the hot people behind me could cool down.......

Went to my 1st gig at the Academy in December, that was the Pogues, don't even remember seeing a single bouncer there, though there were a few polis ootside

Gripper · 10 Feb 2006, 23:39

Just ordered tickets for Leeds.

Can we be given our own rider?

pikkrong · 11 Feb 2006, 15:28

I made a decision. Not a reasonable at all but being 16 years a Sisters fan doesn't seem a reasonable thing for some people as well.
I'm not going to tell you what kind of crimes I'm going to do to find money for all this

but I decided finally to see Sisters in the UK.
To see them in Leeds (the Sisters' home).
To see them in Manchester (the Joy Divison city).
To see them in London (I like the city, although I know that Von doesn't).
Now I have some questions - is there possible to book London tickets? (I'd like to do it before this Tuesday bacause I will be away up to the end of the month and I don't to miss them.)
Is it possible to book tickets for those 3 gigs outside the UK (before Tuesday)?
Actually booking them to a London address would be even better but this case they should accept a different name and a different address from the name and address of the credit card.
Has anyone any helping idea?

canon docre · 11 Feb 2006, 16:06

Sorry, Indrek no helping idea from me in that matter, but I'm IN London & Leeds as well.

< to easyjet for offering 50% discount if you book before 14.2.

Why don't you just try to book them and see what happens? You'd soon find out if you can't.

Have you tried speaking to them over the phone?
The website was a bit slow earlier so I rang them up.

Then you can vent off about Electron!!

Good luck, and yup, i'll see you there...

They've also got London now, but I'd recommend getting London ones from here instead:
http://www.stargreen.com/events?artist= ... S_OF_MERCY
Works out at Â£23.85 per ticket rather than Â£26.60...

robertzombie · 28 Apr 2006, 19:42

There's a goodish possibility that one of the UK gigs will be reviewed in May 10 issue of Kerrang. They mentioned the Sisters gigs in the last issue.

I know it's a load of s**t but may have to buy it just this once

jaxxon · 30 Apr 2006, 19:45
