Official Site Update

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.

My Logan is good with colours, perhaps :von: could let him revamp the site?

Might have more tank engines than necessary but I'm sure it would rock like a motherf*cker 8)

I understand that :von: is aware of HL and that some 'sources close to the band' do log on from time to time.

But no, we don't know their user names and we can't put anyone in touch with them.
'sistersben' seems pretty obvious to me :lol: :lol:

Surely there is a difference between "from time to time" and "regularly" or is this a linguistic distinction that has no real meaning here? :P

You're so cruel - but refreshing.

Although there's some of us seeing signs in the numbers and dates, probably.

('ah, that first date was the same moment when Wayne tuned his guitar during a gig in 1984, plus the amount of MySpace visitors of Ben Christo, minus the pints Chris drinks during his fourth gig makes the date of an upcoming album.')

this is temporary as due to the non-information from the hosting company about shifting all their computers round some space needed to be saved for doing juggly pokey bits but in time the showcase will return.

*please note*
current changes/editing of the website is being done purely in a logistical context and creative changes are not to be expected.

I've just spent 2 hours outside trying to remove the huge piles of snow from the drive, and finally gave up and decided to get to work by bus tomorrow, which means getting up 2 hours earlier than usual.

Thank you both for making me laugh loud regardless of this. :D :notworthy:

So, I can actually register a modest complaint as a symphatizing webmonkey?

Pre-sale tickets for both UK dates will be available here here from Tuesday 20th January - Live News


And in case he has time to spare, he can always fetch the more recent tour dates for the Gigography.
