Stanley

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.

Does anybody remember the walking cane Eldritch used during the 'This Corrosion' era? I seem to remember he caled it "Stanley the Staff".
One of those weird things I suddenly remembered while falling asleep a couple of nights ago.
(I went to get measured for my wedding suit earlier this week for my wedding in December and was offered a very nice mahogany walking cane with a silver skul type handle - it was well smart. Obviously I accepted.)

You're starting to scare me.
Loki was never worshiped as the other Gods,
Which is quite understandable.

Good luck with the wedding plans. I trust you will also wear aviator shades?

Don't be scared Johnny. It's alright.

I think I'll look pretty smart. I was going to go for the open leather jacket and baby oil look. I'm sure MRs 303 would approve.
Wouldn't she? :eek:

I think from the inane answers to date that's probably a 'no'.

If you do go for the TC look, save money by getting the council to dump a big pile of rubbish and some burnt out cars on the dance floor at your reception. Set the sprinkler system off and you'll be in your element. :von:

Just to point out the that pole in the This Corrosion and Lucretia videos is called Stanley. The cane/sword appears not to have a name, no matter how bastard cool it is.

Thank you for that. I'm glad I didn't imagine it.

I seem to remember the full title being Stanley The Stick. It stayed in my mind as me and my friend as hormonal teenagers :roll: quite liked the idea of Stanley ie being "handled" by Von,just like we would of liked to have been the mike stand on "Wake"
Sad I know, but I'm sure it may amuse everyone.
