T-Shirts

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.

They're half the price they were on tour!

Can anyone make out which lyric shirt it is?
Any more of that and we'll be round your front door with the quick-setting whitewash and the shaved monkey.

My last surviving sisters t-shirt is too threadbare to wear. I really needed some new ones.
Lucky you ... mine are all that large that I never had a chance to wear them ... :roll:
Well, there’s a choice of sizes at play.com so these might fit you. Alternatively, eat more burgers or something, then your t-shirts will fit :-)
Wear them as nightshirts - that's what I do. It's as close to sleeping with the Sisters as we're likely to get... :wink: :lol:

I have, actually, given one or two away to the clothes collection ...
in order to make - coincidentally - even indigent Sisters' fans a bit more happy. :wink: :lol:

Ordered the Groovy one. The "new" MR logo sucks, imho.

I still have a Body & Soul T-shirt somewhere, probably heavily worn. :D

Ah must admit I quite like the lucretia shirt. It dosen't look like a band shirt. For some reason am not as comfortable wearing band t-shirts (with the exception of the Sisters) as i was. Must be geting old....but i still ordered both! ;D

:lol: ... unfortunately, for me it's either buying food or clothes, so burgers (or something) will surely not be on my purchasing list.

Tell you what - I kept them only to wear them in case of pregnancy ... :lol:

but even this has lost every basis by now ... :twisted: ... ;D

Well, so much for the idea of doing a mass-order of shirts to Iceland.

No, not just that the customs office told me it would cost a fortune if I order more than half a dozen unless I start some business. I just learned that play.com is not delivering to iceland :(

So, if anyone could order t-shirts for me, I'd be pretty thankful.
No shade of anything can make a good summer over here.

I'll second that. Pleaseohpleaseohplease - will some kind soul have pity on those of us who can't make purchases from Play? Image

Yeah, I'll third it. Seems as though not having a postcode is viewed as some grievous offence by these people. :evil:

Came across an american (I think!) site that does the shirts corpseclothing.com (sigh - who comes up with these names?) by typing in Sisters of Mercy t-shirts into Google so maybe you're in luck...if i'm wrong and it's not US sorry! Also ukrecordshop.com has the groovy one and seems to do wordwide shipping. Hope I've been helpful

Has anyone received their T-shirts or confirmation of shipping from play.com yet? Their web site says they're still due for release.

I've got a 14 day window in which I can get one shipped to Sweden and then brought down here so any delays could mess my plans around :?

Ah ha! They're not actually American - they're based in Wolverhampton, but are apparently being distributed through Backstreet Merch. They definitely do international shipping though - that's part of the joy of a relationship with Backstreet.

Many thanks! :notworthy: :notworthy: :notworthy: :notworthy: :notworthy:

Hell yeah! They even have a "shopping casket". :lol: :notworthy: :lol: :notworthy: :lol:

(Methinks the "corpse" bit is not really indicative of dodgy darkling affiliations.)

Am I the only one who gets a "Not Applicable" as price and shipping cost on corpseclothing?

If they’re really big on you, couldn’t you turn them into dresses by wearing a belt around your waist but over the shirt. Could be a good look.
