The Reptile House

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.

Does Leeds LS6 1SL actually still exist? Or is there a shopping center and a big parking lot now ;-)

I last wrote in 2000, and i got a reply and order form. All that was on it was four shirts (the two head and star logos - bastard groovy - gegen nazis), badges and the head and star necklace. All i got was the two logo badges. The reply took some time, but the badges were pretty quick. I wouldn't bother writing know. Andrew just can't be bothered pure and simple.

1. Eldritch and Danny Mass (7 Village Place)
2. Choque Hosein (73 Beechwood Terrace)
3. That Guitarist
4. Mick Brown and Sandy (did The m*****n's Artwork)
5. Dave Beer (while he worked for The Sisters)
6. Marc Almond (one of many)
7. Johnnie Thunders' Crack House when he came to the UK!

I wrote some time between 2001 and 2003 (more likely end of 2002) and got two t-shirts. Nobody ever after got a reply. Have I not been polite enough? :roll: :lol:

The two Baxcorp employees had to work toppless for three weeks after that. Yorkshire isn't as rich.

Ha, loving the Google Map. Quiffy you considered operating tourist trips ala Hollywood, "marvel at the homes of the poor and not famous, the Leeds '80s Goth Scene" £15 a pop including a free pint of snakebite in the Faversham!!

Where did the Rose boys live?!!
