March Violets gig

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.

:D :D :D

The phrase "at fcking last!!" springs to mind!

Also, I have 4 other concerts in December, and I'm based in London, but if its on the 8th than it is the day after I see the Human League in Sheffield anyway, so I'll be in your northerly climbes anyway!

This is all working out rather nicely.

Snap. :lol:

Once I have those MV tickets in my hand the Bunnymen tickets can go on ebay. Should make a few quid as well seeing that the gig has been sold out for weeks.

See you Friday at The Cavern, Derek. :D :notworthy:

Watching this one with interest. If tickets are purchasable by those who "ain't from round these here parts, boah", a jaunt across the water may well be in order.
If I told them once, I told them a hundred times to put 'Spinal Tap' first and 'Puppet Show' last.

I hope it's going to be the "classic" lineup, with both simon and cleo or rosie and the drum machine.

Any speculation on the linkelyhood of this state of affairs?

Are you sure it's the Cockpit? Tom told me the Met (or is that the same place, I have no idea?!)

Not heard anything about the line-up either, have been in touch about a few things and am awaiting a reply!
