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.

All we need is "Come Together" and that's the full set of new songs covered (apart from all those ones they don't play live :wink: ).

Maybe it was played instrumental as Snub Nose/Top Nite Out?

The interview where Maximum Jack was mentioned was right before the first gig they played Crash&Burn and Top Nite Out, right?

And it changes again!

Arms is now second in the list and has a subtitle of "all that there is to fear is fear of fear"
If I told them once, I told them a hundred times to put 'Spinal Tap' first and 'Puppet Show' last.

but I was wrong, the interview was just before the eXXile-tour 2001. So Maximum Jack cannot be Top Nite Out.

That was about Jack Straw, right? Wasn't he defense minister for the UK? It's pretty outdated by now, I'd imagine.... if it existed at all ;)

Well, I think I suggested about a month ago already that it would be great if all the lyrics were present at the official site. :innocent:

Does it matter?

Oh come on, they are not in the record news section. They are in the live news section, and the sole purpose is that we could sing along the proper words in case the lead singer feels like having a break. :D
Or maybe also to cut the wrong interpretations finally.
Or maybe to show us that he loves us a little bit from time to time, and every couple of years feels like letting us know about it a little bit. :)

The lyrics section has separate pages for each song. Therefore adding new songs involves creating new pages (plus a graphic for each song title) plus add links to the lyrics index page.

Adding them to the bottom of the live news page is far less work. Especially for someone with dodgy HTML skills.

Looking at it from a different perspective - hey, you've got the lyrics now. Be happy.

Seems to me he put them there for attention. T'would be easy enough to add new lyrics to the proper section, but who would notice... and when?
