Ultimate Live

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.

I can whole heartlandedly recommend this gig in The Netherlands.

Eldritch is off his face, won't stop jabbering to the audience between songs, and pauses the gig to take drugs on stage right after Heartland. Yet still they play a great set!

01-Burn
02-Heartland
03-Body And Soul
04-Anaconda
05-Walk Away
06-Emma
07-Floorshow
08-Adrenochrome
09-Alice
10-Body Electric
11-Gimme Shelter
12-Sister Ray
13-Fix
14-Ghostrider/Louie Louie

I thought the Blast artwank archives were at Lucien's site, but I can't seem to locate the links no more...
Maybe the Masterblaster himself can point you in the right direction.

Why is the picture of the beech upside down?
The ceremony of innocence is drowned;
The best lack all conviction, while the worst
Are full of passionate intensity
