**Media Alert** Genesis 1972, Birthday Party 1981 Sessions

Does exactly what it says on the tin. Some of the nonsense contained herein may be very loosely related to The Sisters of Mercy, but I wouldn't bet your PayPal account on it. In keeping with the internet's general theme nothing written here should be taken as Gospel: over three quarters of it is utter gibberish, and most of the forum's denizens haven't spoken to another human being face-to-face for decades. Don't worry your pretty little heads about it. Above all else, remember this: You don't have to stay forever. I will understand.

That I don't know and it is very early in the morning! There may be one very grumpy primary school teacher in the Leeds area given how late in the term it is if they're not... :lol:

Anyway, PM incoming...

They seem to be, I've seen them on torrents and so on, appears to be 2/3/72 session, I think it was Twilight Alehouse and then def. Watcher Of the Skies. I had hoped it was a full half hour though.

I think I might have that lurking around here as well. Sadly the trader who sent me most of my Genesis boots was very good at mixing up titles and track listings though :lol:
