Who is This?

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.

Just came across this guy on the web and wondered what his connection is to The Sisters.

^ yep, wot iz said... he wrote the heartland fanzines (4 editions)

http://sistersbootlegs.de/sistersbooks.htm

the books crop up on ebay every now and again: http://is.gd/4swdf

if you've never read them they are well worth a look 8)

andrew is also registered on here but he's never posted: http://www.myheartland.co.uk/profile.ph ... ile&u=1344

here's his welcome thread: http://myheartland.co.uk/viewtopic.php?t=9616

the biog on his website (link in original post) says it best:
Andrew’s career began when he formed his own company to publish fanzines and books written about The Sisters of Mercy. Andrew owes a great debt of gratitude to the band who provided the platform to promote his work on a global scale which ultimately gained worldwide distribution and recognition

what the **** I was thinking, writing "I got both version of your book" in the welcome thread? yes, I've got his Heartland anthologies (I, II, III as one and IV + II separately) but "both versionss", that sounds like Postcards... which is another story... :oops:
anyway, AP is a man to respect :notworthy:
