A Traditionalist says Hi

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.

Just thought I'd say hello, having wandered into the heartland a couple of weeks ago.
Been into the Sisters since being given a tape of their early EPs at the age of 15. Went straight out and started collecting anything the local record shops could get - my fave items are:

At the moment I'm going to do a bit of updating on the Sisters Wiki - got quite a few setlists I can add (already made a few notes on gigs in 81 and 82).

Be seeing you,

Devils Bit ain't too bad either, although it does do funny things to your head.
