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.

I take it you're another bloody Belgian then?
Welcome! Feel free to introduce yerself properly in General Chat.
That's where most of the insane drivel goes on, so more likely for people to get to know you!
Best - January 1983, Warehouse Leeds. A drum machine starts up and young Ben wanders on stage looking like he should have been at home getting ready for his exams [which indeed he should.] Forty five minutes later a chain smoking stick insect is draped around the microphone telling us it's 1969 baby. Fabulous.
Worst - Brighton, April 1985. End of the tour, end, for many of us, of The Sisters. Spent all but the encore collapsed in a drunken heap. A sad, sad night.

I've done this before, but heck... it seems that post has vanished in the mist of time. So here I go again:
Best show: Pukkelpop 1992. The sisters headlined inna style an' fashion and blew me away like no one had ever done before (or after)...
Worst show: at the same festival, 9 years later, in 2001. It was a very special edition that year: we were dj'ing at the festival ourselves and it was the first time the missus came along to see The Sisters on stage.
Andy & the boys were way too speedy for our liking and we failed to singalong to all those 'new' songs... We walked away halfway

The shared Susanne from that site was recorded there. Not bad IMO.
Nevertheless it certainly was different from the 1992 show. I loved the gig mainly for that reason you mention because it was the first time I could see them perform the new songs. But hey....I seem to like all their gigs.

Susanne video: Pukkelpop 2001
Watch the vid. Definitely indoors; tent in this case (so no 2002 gig).
Just after it was put on the site, someone from Dominion sent me a CD-r round that time containing "official" versions of Susanne audio: Pukkelpop and Alive/St. Vith plus the video which she named "Pukkelpop vid". But I am sure I've read it elsewhere as well. Just can't remember where.
what's "official" about them Padraigh of the Lowlands?
