News from the madhouse

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.

If I told them once, I told them a hundred times to put 'Spinal Tap' first and 'Puppet Show' last.

This Abrimaal chap is bonkers! It's fantastic. His astounding version of When You Don't See Me is my personal favourite. Although the sheer heartfelt passion he puts into his renditions of the Cure are also worthy of note.
Nationalise the f**king lot.

Oh god. I am so embarrassed on behalf of those people. One more reason I wish I could unsee things.

This actually persuaded my wife to come with me to the concert in Zürich.

Thanks for the links, they have provided me much amusement :D

I would comment on Abrimaal, but words escape me :eek:

Just goes to show that there is more to this singing lark, than just donning a black hat and holding a mic... my personal fave is the first link, I particularly like his ad-libbing, a sort of cross between South Park & John Wayne, most impressive :lol:
I've got a mind like a poisonous fish...

Nope, could not stand more than 30 seconds. Guess I missed the rest, but I will have a nice day today.

No track mixing, just adding some audio effects to my real voice. Damn, how could I forget my favourite verse "Kill the king when love is the law..."
:lol: :lol: :lol:, while his "like a healing hand ..." in the first repetitions rather sounded like "like killing time...".
Seems to be fun to kill one's time this way. :notworthy:
