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.

I certainly hope to be around for this one. :)
A Play Dead message message board? That'll be Blast then? ;D

Official March Violets wrote: THE MARCH VIOLETS - HOMECOMING -

ONE OFF SHOW - SAT 8TH DEC - 8PM -

After a two and a half decade hiatus, three original members of The March Violets have decided to get back to the source...

Si Denbigh, Rosie Garland and Tom Ashton are preparing a choice feast of classics and new material in order to serve it to you at Leeds Metropolitan University Union on Saturday the 8th of December.

There will be an exclusive cd of new material...only available to ticket buyers, some special guests and some special happenings and also an aftershow party licensed until 3am. We want to celebrate this and we want to do it with all our fans both old and new. Oh, and did we mention that the resulting mess will be filmed for possible future release? We just did.

Tickets will be on sale within the next 24 hours and we will send out an event invite to all our friends here, so keep an eye on your inbox. You will be able to buy tickets directly from this page...which will probably be the cheapest option and also from Leeds Met on their website and other local outlets tba.

Just one more thing for now...if you are female with long black hair and feeling particularly drunk/happy/silly/etc and happen to have a mobile phone with video capabilities [or even, gasp, a video camera] could you please film yourself headbanging to our new track, Long Black Hair. Just download the 45 second snippet of the track on our myspace player, film yourself or get a friend to and send us the results using the link below...the video will be shown at the gig when the band performs said track...mmmm...could be interesting.

Eagerly awaiting more news on tickets... c'mon!
If I told them once, I told them a hundred times to put 'Spinal Tap' first and 'Puppet Show' last.

Almost, but not quite, chocs away...

The Leeds Met website proudly announces the "marching violets" are playing, but the ticket link does not have them listed on the seetickets link.
