Hamburg thingy....hmmmm....

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.

Sounds like 'Top Secret'-german :-) :-) :-)

In fact, that's the movie I learnt German from...
And English, for that matter...

It's true he looks better in the first pic, some angles are always more flattering than others. But he looks an awful lot better than your average 44 year old, surely? Especially considering the excesses he's put his body through...perhaps he has a painting somewhere of a decrepit, chewed up looking Von, which no-one is allowed to see...

Von thought he looked like Bowie's hidden painting: http://www.lak.co.za/sisters/interviews ... sbowie.htm

Lol, that's a possibility. But surely Bowie has had a facelift or two? On Von's supposed nosejob, there's a mini-discussion going on the Lyrics board...

As for his age...I bet he's better in bed now than he was when he was 21 and in it only for the ...I won't go into that, it's experience that counts, and at 44 he's got some experience under his belt. LOL that pun was not inteneded... :wink: :wink: :wink:

don't be too sure about that, Black Planet... I've seen a strange patch this spring (at the "rear end" of the quiff he has now, which I rather like)... But bald men can be quite sexy, too... gives them a very male aspect and ...er... something rough...

ok, I'm not going to dwell on that in public....

When was the last time AE got up on stage during the daytime?

Much to my suprise, he looks quite handsome in the harsh light of day without all that smoke.
