Rock Affligem - Belgium 2007????

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.

Ah, so that's why there's only been one gig in Luxembourg then :wink:
I don't necessarily agree with everything I think.

:eek: imagine that.

...it could very well be true. If so, I am there 8)

And it means there won't be a new album this year. Otherwise they would play in Werchter :| but this is no news of course.

Hope it's true for everybody except for myself :eek:

That day I'm the best man's wife on the wedding of very close friends.

It's supposed to be one of the most beautiful days of the year but if

the Sisters would play that day in Belgium I'd cry my eyes out :cry:

Somebody on the Affligem forum wrote that the Sisters are in Brussels that day and so they can't play in Affligem :eek:

Where the hell does this come from? :eek:

... and needed a new prescription for stronger glasses as they didn't get the last year's dates right nor is there an announcement posted of the Girls coming anywhere near here on the official site... :lol:

thanx for finishing my sentence, Raf :lol:

And btw, you said it'd be the 2nd time they play there?
I don't think so. They did play on Rock Ternat in 2001, but neva in Affligem!

Coming soon to a venue near you: "Sisters visit the Kebab shop".

Sources close to the band (but who asked to remain anonymous) revealed that Andrew was very picky about his food, constantly questioning if the various ingredients were properly cleaned and cooked, and eventually demanding to speak to the manager after an argument over a minor point of principle.

The two lads laid into the mankiest kebabs imaginable, and we're fairly certain that at least one of them woke up with his congealed to the left side of his face.

Regrettably, the Nurse managed to get garlic sauce all over the Doktor's innards, and so recording of the new album is likely to be further delayed.
If I told them once, I told them a hundred times to put 'Spinal Tap' first and 'Puppet Show' last.
