Band Member Gantt Chart?

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.

Check out: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fields_of_the_Nephilim ... look towards the end of the page and you'll see a chart showing who was in the band, when ... crossovers of personnel and so on.

Does such a thing exist for TSOM?

Granted, there might be a slight difference for live and studio line-ups given members dropping out here and there.

Could it be put together?

I found a place I like, I post a lot, it makes connections with people who become friends. Is there something meringue with this?

here is one i just made, pretty simple and maybe a little innacurate in terms of actual slace, but any crossovers should be right

:lol:

There's a chap ... what's his name ... Slicepack, that's it ... who seems to know a lot about the technical setup of the Doktor. Maybe it's a little easier just to put DR55, TB whatever ... TB next version ...

The periods where the Doktor took over bass would be good to show, as would that odd period where Craig Adams left for a short vacation ... was it Jon Langford who came back for a brief period or the Doktor who took over in late 1985?

Good work! It's really interesting to visualise on a timeline. Great effort ... thank you :notworthy:

This is what wikipedia says, basically a summary of http://www.the-sisters-of-mercy.com/tech/doktors.htm

"The original incarnation of Doktor Avalanche was a BOSS DR-55 ("Doctor Rhythm"); the Doktor was later replaced by a Roland TR-606, soon followed by a TR-808, and, briefly, a TR-909. On one album, First and Last and Always, an Oberheim DMX bore the Doktor name.

With increased financial resources from sale of the album, the Doktor was upgraded to a Yamaha RX5, and subsequently reinforced by Akai S900 and S1000 samplers. An Akai S3200 has been used as studio equipment. Soon after, the first digital Doktor appeared in the form of a set of Compaq portable PCs, which had to be scrapped when it became impossible to maintain them because of a lack of spare parts.

In recent years the "Digital Doktor" has been moved to a custom-built laptop designed by Andrew Eldritch and constructed by an English weapons manufacturing company. For a time there was some division in the band as the whether or not the Doktor should be moved to a Macintosh running Logic or remain as is."

unfortunately nothing about dates :(

Erm, Suzanne Josesowicz was there for the '91 tour and also the '92 dates (I think)
I'm pretty sure they were a 3 piece for Summer '93 and then had Jovanka Wilsdorf & and someone else (possibly Josesowicz again) for the Overbombing tour :?
