Mechanised Europe is quite brilliant as a title.

It sounds cool, but I have to ask what it means really?
Like industrialised, or connected, or what?

A review, don't know if it has been posted. Even if I don't really know Dutch I can see they are not satisfied


Oh, and another thing while I still remember it; what was Andrew up to with his sweater during Vision Thing, it looked like it was stuck on the mic stand - and all the way from the balcony it looked exactly like a...puppet show


Ok, review already posted last page...well anyway, no surprise.

It is never a problem to get a camera inside!

Lucky! I brought one of my smallest cameras but no luck... Perhaps next time just not hang it round my neck (if ever I'd like to make photos)

I have seen the Sisters many times, but I can't get the thought out of my head that a Sisters gig has become less magic. I miss AE 's screaming (i still hear the screams in my head, but I don't hear them with my ears) and the guitar sound of Adam Pearson.
But I'm glad they played songs like 'this corrosion', 'logic' and 'vision thing'.
A question for you guys. Is it just an idea or is the Doctor sounding more 'flat' than he used to be? Normally when the sisters start with Crash and Burn, the Doctor sounds great. And today, I was so 'flat'.

And today, I was so 'flat'.

You, or the dok...?

You, or the dok...?

It says "I"....

Maybe both of us

Maybe he IS the doc, hiding in one of the big flightcases in front of The Nurse

You guys are mean.

I generally only get to a hear the sisters a couple of times on each tour, what I've found is that if you stand at the back, the sound lacks detail and can be a little flat, but get down the front and jump around like a lunatic and the sound & the experience is much better

Live recordings I have seem to be fairly consistent, and the Doc seems to be as fully functional now as he always has been

Of course you may have just been unlucky with the venue, or maybe age is creeping in, and too many years of listening to the Sisters at full blast has damaged your ears irreparably

Merchadised Europe

[No_Mercy]

Some nice photos throughout the thread. thanks. Wish they had some of this merch when they were in the States

i don't like trains, they sucks so much (leader looks like great masturbator). but who cares for supports? gig was good for the start but band was a little bit uptight (belgium, great expectations etc.) and for me, it was too quiet as for rock'n'roll band.
big thanks to Phil for let us sleep in the best belgium hotel - never land, duvels and everything

only three pictures:

do not use flash when you want to take pictures of Sisters

This says it all, really.
I am not the one who thinks it's appropriate or necessary or whatever to criticise support bands (because let's face it, tastes differ, and every support band is always tense and anxious and in the worse starting position initially and so on), but I Like Trains is pure torture.
I could elaborate on why I think so, but:
1. There's no point. This is a Sisters forum.
2. I really just would like to forget about them as soon as possible, bacause they were the biggest drawback of the trip, much much bigger than the cold rain in Hamburg, the crappy bathroom in the "hotel" in Dresden, and my sore throat.
3. I am a good person.
