Hello.
Just joined after a lot of lurking around.
Longtime Sisters freak.
Caught the Seattle and Vancouver gigs back in 2006.
Going to the Vancouver gig for sure..with my lady.
I might make the Seattle gig, too...if work schedule allows.

Saw them 4 times on the last tour, London, Leeds, Nottingham and Norwich. That'll do for one decade!

Unfortunately not. It would've been cool to see them in Vancouver on my birthday, but perhaps one day the Sisters will do a proper Canadian tour.

Hey Hey hey just joined and I'm also heading to Vancouver. Anyone know of any setlists? After all these years do you think Eldritch would do a proper Canadian tour? It seems he can croak any time.

Yeah, check threads for other dates. I think the New Haven thread has a picture of the actual setlist in it. Should give you a good idea, but perhaps they'll add and subtract a song or two by the 24th.

Enjoy! And please review and record for us.

I take it you missed the tour two years ago...
The Commodore Ballroom is a sweet venue, too!

Yes, Commodore is a great venue. I caught them in 2006.
Great gig. Sound was awesome. I really didn't think I'd get a second chance to see them again. :D :D :D

Yeah..that was a great show!
Far better than the "Seat-Hell" show the night before.
Horrible sound, over-ripe goth people, and one slightly annoyed :von:
Welcome back Sisters!

I would, but I feel I may be a tad bit old at 62 for this kind of thing now. I'll be there in spirit though '-)

Alas, I also am without equipment. All I have is a lousy
little digital, which would probably get confiscated at the door...
or maybe not... :innocent:

I'm going to the show at the Commodore on the 24th and desperatly trying to borrow an audio digital recorder from my cousin (because i'm broke and cheap). Hopefully things will work out and I can weed it out. But, we shall see. It's funny but i've been a sisters of little or no mercy fan for almost 20 years and not once have i seen them live so I'm going for the full effect and after efffects. Before he dies from smoke inhalation anyway. If anyone of yous is going to the Commodore I'm not particul;arly sure how it works. Does the show start at 8 or around 9:30 like the Mogwai show I attended last september. Also if yous is going I'll be there in my black touque and sisters shirt with the red circle logo in front with a bunch of European dates on the back. Ok? Alright. Thank you Von legion.

Any word on an opening act?
The Seattle show had some local yokels called Romance.
Is HyperNova still the opener?
