Unknown Sisters Pic c.1984

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.

Stumbling around on the net I came across this pic I'd never seen before.

Image

Why is everyone (except Von) looking like tree-hugging, psychedelic hippies? And why is Gary wearing the blouse he stole from his Mum's/Sister's (no pun intended) wardrobe?

It's simply titled 'bosque' so maybe one of you experts can assist?

Because that's the way we liked them.
