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.

Now I need a linky as I'm no hero at the google function...
Please Andrew!
it's all about circles and spirals
that ongoing eternity
Two questions for the locals (or those who speak far more dutch/Flamish than I do):
1. Besides the fact that the suggested hotels are still rather expensive - they cost more than what I get in London, which is an expensive city. But I wonder how one gets back from the festival to Leuven in the first place? How do drunk people get back, drunk people who don't want to drive? Is there a shuttle service or something?
2. There is camping mentioned on the festival homepage, but they write something about registering. Can anybody of you please let me know what they say exactly? Does one who wants to set up a tent have to register somewhere?
How do drunk people get back, drunk people who don't want to drive?
they stumble along with the vague notion, it's not far...
seriously though I'm hoping there will be trains running late that weekend I thought €100 was ok....London's a s~&t hole and you can pay £10 to sleep there still doesn't make it good value
@Matt: Yes, of course that's our plan (to sleep in the car). But as I am a spoiled child I was still hoping I could avoid the cosyness of a small tin where I can hardly stretch my legs. And my back also says I'll pay for it. But never mind, it's part of the Sisters experience isn't it?
We'll have a friend with us, who will either want to put up her tent or to stay in a hotel. None of us will be able to drive her back to Leuven. So the question regarding camping is rather vital... Thanks for the link @Darkparticle
Thanks for the info, IZ...
I think I solved the tricky bit: We will all three register for camping, so Eggi and I have a guaranteed parking space for our car and Helen doesn't have to put up her tent miles away on her own. Took me ages to figure that out although it's so simple...

so you could walk it with a large enough drug supply and imbibed optimism
