TSoM live at V N Gaia - Porto - Portugal

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.

Thanks for letting us know. I wanted to visit Portugal again anyway... :D
And even if it wasn't going to happen the fact that there are this kind of rumours tells me there's something in the making. You made my day...:-)

I think it is saying that James have been confirmed along with the cult, prodigy, peter murphy etc. I am guessing that maybe the girls are the replacement for the cult as this was announced on the 2nd April and that the following website has the cult as cancelled:

Tss tss, spanish??? Shame, shame on you :P

Anywhoo, hello hello

Wow, looong time no see

So this place (myheartland) still exists hu? Who would have thought Sisters fans are this insane to still talk about Von and his dead band after all these years 8)

hmm, yeah, the Sisters will be here on the 17th of July and i'm going. I live 30 minutes away by car from the place they'll be playing haha :P

And yes, Peter Murphy on the same day, greatness :D

Unfortunately the Cult cancelled and were replaced by Tricky, which is sad at least for me. Still, that Doors cover band, Riders on the Storm will be here too, so i'm going to see that as well ;D

Hmm, yeah
