My Sisters wardrobe

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.

No, it doesn't ... to my taste a matter of consequence ... :wink: ...

The fabric is really thin, even thinner than the 2010 shirts' ...
especially in the burned-out spaces, it is quite sheer so to say ...
and in the thicker parts the textile feels like velvet ...
as far as I gathered, it's made of jersey material.

I had a very nice Black October tour T-shirt that I got on that tour. Unfortunately it ceased to fit many moons ago and I binned it. Wish I still had the bugger. They also did a very nice shirt (a sort of army style thing) which had the Black October logo on the left breast and Black October on the back. Can't remember where that went. I thing if may literally have disintegrated on me.

The other one I like was the 84 tour one of the star and head. They changed it to 85 and the 84 ones were like gold-dust. It went the same way as the Black October one.... It is no fun being a fat b$%tard!

I have a friend who still wears one of them far too often for it's own good.

Okay,here's the haul from the birthday party gigs.
"Thermal" sweater,previously onsale at both 2009 and 2010 gigs.

Image

One sided Alice,poor effort I feel,twice the price of identicl boots on ebay.

Image

One sided Vision Thing,only available on the thursday night.

Image

Most people I spoke to thought the shirt selection was both poor,and half arsed,especially for a band that is often accused of simply being a medium to sell t shirts!
They also had a new hat on sale,similiar to the ones availble from mamstore,but with "Sisters" in red,and they were still selling the "Girls on smoke" shirts.

I will doubtless make my own anniversary shirt anyway now.

i bought one of these for paulina (she don't have a lot of girly's) and when we look closer, there's some silver something in graphic.
when we were drunk after secend gig we saw even silver thread and i said "ok, got your 20 pounds bloodsuckers" :lol: but it's just shinny sliver paint or something ;D
don't bought myself any t-shirt but i doubt that you can buy bootleg alice like this :wink:
