I need some help. I am going to get a tatoo, and I really want to have one of the circle SOM use. Does anyone know what it might mean? Or atleast mean to them? I might be a dumbass for not knowing but i would like to know. I hope someone can help me...

They used the circle on the event horizon tour. Wich means black hole, so is the circle a sort of sign for an black hole?

That kinda makes sense to me
First appeared in 1997 with the new stylee head and artwork. Haven’t got a clue what it actually means but to me it always looked like gear teeth in reverse, very industrial, or maybe keeps on turning? Which sorta suited their emergent sound and the return to a full on tour.
If you reflect on how its been used over the years, then your case does seem to stand true. It, the circle, does indeed seem to border the central theme of the tour.
For example trip the light fantastic (Milton), bright pink background and rock God pose
Then the event horizon tag and subliminal messages from the chairman, would indeed suggest it represents none more black.
Planet edge seemingly more obvious still
Ultimately, all this talk of shortened a tour may be the reason we only got half a circle in 2002?
Who knows and is it our right to interpret anyway?

I remember seing some Nazi-party pins from the thirties at a military show some years ago where a similar ring surrounded the swastika. I've failed to find a photo of the pin on the net but as I remember it was a yellow circle on red surrounding a black swastika on white.

I had the same urge some years ago end ended up with the olg sisters-logo on my right arm. Unfortunately the tattooer was drunk (which I discovered a bit to late) so the nose on the head became a snub-nose (!) and the star is a bit slanting. But what the heck, it looks rough!

Hmmm, I would be really pissed at him. But as long as it looks good enough.. Cool, so how does the logo do as a tatoo? Does it look as good as i think it might?

Well, I'm quite satisfied with mine even if it doesn't look like a print from a 12" label. Some (10) years ago I worked at a swedish prison and one of the inmates saw my tattoo and shouted "Sisters of mercy", "I love that band but my wife refuse to bring me any cassettes". Apparently his wife regarded our beloved Sisters as 'drug-music' (I wonder where she got that from...)... Anyhow, I recorderd FALAA and Floodland for him and suddenly he was the happiest crook in a swedish prison, so even if my tattoo wasn't perfect it did some good! And, by the way, any Sisters- or Motörheadtattoo looks hard!!!

By the way, maybe a week ago one female friend of my wife visited us with her new boyfriend who is a Swedish guy. He isn't a rock'n'roll or gothic guy, just a nice person who works on computers. He took a look also at my computer and then saw my necklace with old Sisters' logo pendant on my writing desk and he immediately recognized what's this. I was even a little bit surprised because most of Estonian guys don't know what does it mean. Some people had named me even a satanist due to it

I love every movie by David Lynch. But my favourites are Lost highway and Mulholland drive. And twin peaks ofcourse. I have the first edition on a dvd box, and the rest on video (twin peaks)
He is truly a genious
Robert "Baretta" Blake was very "scary" in Lost highway a great part played..

I still really like Wild At Heart and Dune was fantastic.
Lost Highway was a great film. I just love the way David Lynch throws huge tangents into his films. One minute you think you've got the hang of whatever the hell just happened, then everything changes and you left floundering again.
I watched Mulholland Drive for the first time last week. That was a good film although a little more straight forward than some of his others.
I've still never made it to the end of Eraserhead though. For some reason it scares the life out of me :/

The first time I saw Mulholland drive I was a bit dissapointed almost. I thought the same thing, it was more straight. But the second time around, I fell in love. It was even better, and still gets that way. The man or whatever behind the cafe, scared me more than anything ive seen on tv.. My god... David surly knows how to put fear on to the screen. My stumach fell to my feet..
Ive seen Eraserhead many times, I love it, all the sounds.. It is scary, yes it is. One time at work I almost s**t my pants. I work in a store, I heard a wierd noise, but i knew it from somewhere. It was exactly the same noise the "baby" makes. I never saw the baby in the store who made the sound, and i think that scared me even more..
