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.

Why do I let provoke myself? It has to do with my almost unconditioned love for the Sisters in being a big part of my life....In good times and bad times. I am grateful for that so I stand up for them. Maybe even too much sometimes but hey, that's how I feel about them....
and ya shall not walk alone my friend. there are more of us. together we will re-unite.
i think it's funny; of course it is taking the p*ss but we can't begrudge him that after the years of p*ss-taking we've had at the mish-take's expense.
also, fair play to paddy and the crew for landing a hig-profile gig; noless thatn than they deserve.
Well I was handsome and I was strong
And I knew the words to every song.
"Did my singing please you?"
"No! The words you sang were wrong!"
I think this is totally excellent news! I think it will make what already promises to be a hugely fun night out into a HUGELY fun night out!
Excellent excellent excellent. I've never actually heard the smurphs though, but i have faith (isn't that what the missin is all about? )
This is the last ever time tracks written by Wayne for the sisters will be played by anyone at a That Guitarist attended gig, I can't imagine a world where he DOESN'T turn up on stage. Its too good an oppertunity to miss.
I'm really glad I put off my gap year travels for this!

I do see the humor in Hussey's action to invite The Smurphs. It's nothing but a game to him to provoke. He does it in his live shows (playing a part of Marian during Wasteland), on his website, in his lyrics etc. He has a great time seeing Sisters fans getting "angry and upset". IMO Sisters fans play to be "angry and upset", but I believe most of them enjoy this game as well (at least I do )

I'm not playing and I am not enjoying it but I am curious what's gonna happen during the gigs. Won't p*ss me off anymore though...

Just wondering, whilst trying to find some context and perspective...would Von (or anyone for that matter) ask a m*****on uk tribute band to open a show for them? Hmmm...
I feel quite sure Paddy and co will blow them off stage.
'What a heavy load Einstein must have had. Morons everywhere.'
in my opinion is a provocation!!!
i like the miss but i hate what they did in the past and the comentaries that wayne always says about ther sisters, like in paris asking to the audience about the sisters gig in paris and thinking that i was crap but i don´t know if he realised that he played in the locomotive for 700 people and the sisters in le zenit for 4500 or so.
in madrid 2005 show he said something about the sisters, i put my finger in my mounth saiyng him SHUP THE F.. UP!!!(DID HE SAW ME!!)
i think that this band could have been bigger if they would´t done what they did in the past. i don´t move a finger for them, as maximun if they play in madrid i go if i don´t have something better to do!!!
and invite a sisters tribute band to his show is like he wants to laugh to the sisters fans!!!
is my personal opinion and if it ofends to somebody SORRY but as i said is my opinion
