Under the Gun.

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.

dunno if this is common knowledge (probably is) but Terri Nunn very nearly got the part of princess leia in star wars.

only the facts that she was a bit too young (limiting her working hours) coupled with the fact that production was behind stopped her (oh and carrie fisher might have had something to do with it).
