Did last years tour have a title?

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.

You know,like Trip The Light Fantastic or Mechanised?
I ask because I am thinking of having a hoody made with a list of the tours I have seen the Sisters on featured on the back.Essentially all the one's from Event Horizon onward that have hit the U.K.If not,I'll just go with 2010.

Time to get off the fence JB. Do you rate the current live incarnation of the Sisters or not? :innocent:

guitarist of the six string variety - fine
guitarist of the four string variety - shocking in their absence
singist - should retire
snoudman - should be kicked soft
worker of the drum thingey and knobs - who can tell (see above conspirator)
lights/smoke - should catch up on anything post 1992
merch - quite nice, needs more in the lard ass dept. and a few 'snoudboard buy after concert' CDs/USBs/BioImplants, I'm sure none of us would sniff at them

does that clarify my position Mothy old bean? ;D

I know this has been gone over again and again
But
Isn't the live sound kept deliberately bad to hide the slight imperfections of Eldo's voice??

I've said it before and I will say it again; There was NOTHING wrong with the sound at Leamington.

... and so was the sound in Lokeren, at the M'era Luna in Hildesheim and at Artmania Festival in Sibiu ...

Sound perfect, all over the last tour ... pretty lights as well, and Eldritch's voice in best condition ...
ah yes, and the rest of the band were also wonderful ... a pleasure from the beginning to the end ... ;D :lol: ...

You might want to have a look at the various threads on each of these gigs here http://www.myheartland.co.uk/viewforum.php?f=24

or go to the Weeding Section and find some lovely recordings to convince yourself ... :roll: :roll: :roll: ...
