gothic rock calendar

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.

Walked past a calendar stall/shop tonight in a shopping centre & there was a 2009 gothic rock calendar. It had the cradle of filth knobber on the front so I nearly walked straight past.
Upon closer inspection it also had Alien sex fiend, the Cult & amongst other old schoolers - The Sisters of mercy.

It was quite odd to see Marilyn Manson right next to Alien Sex Fiend in a mainstream publication in 2009.

Most shopping centres have these "calendar club" shops but they'll be vacating pretty soon until next Christmast. The one in Barnsley said "last few days" above it.

You might be able to find it online but I can't be arsed.

I saw that it my local shopping centre, if it weren't for the fact that half the bands on it aren't "Goth" I would've bought it!

I seem to remember it having a The Mirror logo on it.

There's a great goff night in London called Invocation. They were giving out free calenders to everyone for the december night. Not goth rock ones, just with the clubs imagery all over it (black and purple tarot card type designs mostly) - but at least I got a goffik calender of some description :urff:

I say " :urff: " - it's still up on my notice board :wink:

Got my niece an Emily (I think) Strange cartoon calender for Christmas. Have no idea who or what she is (Emily, not my niece) though have seen a pic of her on this forum but the recreation of classic album covers was nice. Trying to drag a teen away from My Chemical Romance...

Ah that's the one. So she likes cats. Anyone not like cats? There's nothing really wrong with My Chemical Romance. I just have a tendency to judge them against the Sisters. Cats are worse. Much worse. :twisted:

If Sisters will end in history as gothic rock and we all agree, then i'm sure Obama is just Bush with a mask.

I don't think he looks THAT fat, I think the lighting does him no favours. I mean, if you look at the physique of his chest, and arms, he doesn't appear either scrawny or fat.

Danii is an ok bloke, Cradle got picked up by mainstream years ago and they finally make a profit out of music.

Blame the stupid kids buying these calendars.

Then again, so did we when we were youngsters ;)

That was Dani Filth ? I sure didn't recognize him ! But then again, I don't like his music and I don't have any of his albums. I thought it was just some silly plastic S/M nobody.

Maybe I did buy a couple of silly calendars back in my late teens. And there were already grey bearded moaners back then. Now it's my turn. It's the circle of life ! ;D
