Greetings

Does exactly what it says on the tin. Some of the nonsense contained herein may be very loosely related to The Sisters of Mercy, but I wouldn't bet your PayPal account on it. In keeping with the internet's general theme nothing written here should be taken as Gospel: over three quarters of it is utter gibberish, and most of the forum's denizens haven't spoken to another human being face-to-face for decades. Don't worry your pretty little heads about it. Above all else, remember this: You don't have to stay forever. I will understand.

Er...hello.
Newbie Alert! Newbie Alert!
Been a long time lurker and thought I would dip my toe in the murky forum waters.
Been into The Sisters for longer than I care to remember but my first gig (Sisters gig that is) was Loughborough Uni in '84, so that should give you some indication of my advancing years :cry:

Anyway, I was wondering if someone could point me in the direction of where to find a completeish list of post-Vision Thing songs.
The last time I saw the band was in 2006 and I didn't know a good proportion of the set due to being out of the loop for a number of years.
Any info would be greatly appreciated as I've just got me hands on a couple of tickets for Leamington.

Cheers for now, Mr. Mullet.

Hello mate. Welcome.
A complete list of official releases or all the stuff performed live and never recorded? Either way you'll find all the info somewhere around here.

Go for all of them.
You can't slag it off until you've heard it.
But Arms is bollix.

Welcome onboard! :notworthy:

There's a few compilations of the best sounding new tracks floating around the Sharing section so check 'em out.
If I told them once, I told them a hundred times to put 'Spinal Tap' first and 'Puppet Show' last.

Thanks for the info all.
Have downloaded a couple of the live recordings and first impressions are Crash & Burn rocks like a muthafucker as does Romeo Down.

Just as an aside, does anyone else have any of the Palolagrazzi bootlegs? I just dusted off my copy of The Last Magician of Rational Thought and it's really rather groovy. Completely forgotten I'd got it tbh.

And has anyone seen my copy of Heartland? I can't find it anywhere and I've even looked on the bookshelves (normally the last place to go looking for such things in this house).

When did I have it last? In about 1996. Have moved to France and back again since then. You don't think it could be...lost, do you :eek: ?

Aye, normally I find that looking for these things where I left them helps a lot. :twisted:
