Black Planet Never Played 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.

Thanks Doc. I saw your note on our page. We've been bad about recording recent gigs. We are learning all the rest of the songs from FALAA for the upcoming months. Here's a few from last year that some of you may or may not have seen

Black Planet has always been one of my favourite songs and means more to me since I have driven on the 101 & made my own version of a video for it.

Michael,
I do like your version of it & if I'd have known about you when I lived in Eureka & San Francisco I would have gone to see you.

I do miss San Fancisco & hope to get back there soon.
And I ride down the Highway 101
By the side of the ocean, headed for Sunset

Black Planet according to originalGoth

Considering what´s going on in the world at the moment, the lyrics certainly comes across as pretty accurate rather than goth-deathposer-romantic.

The second world war was never finished, you can clearly see that in the eyes of any transnational banker. They don´t wear shades.

"far parade" is just too majesticum-epicusmusum-sanctrumismatic to not be played live. it's just a piece of other world, some part of flash and air from other galactic, gates to new live, portal to better dimention. it must be shared. it is in "far parade" commitment. you are able to wrote such revolutionary track but you must sepread it all over the world, god said, other way you'll die in terrilbe torments. amen.
