The m*****n reunited...again!

Does exactly what it says on the tin. Some of the nonsense contained herein may be very loosely related to The Sisters of Mercy, but I wouldn't bet your PayPal account on it. In keeping with the internet's general theme nothing written here should be taken as Gospel: over three quarters of it is utter gibberish, and most of the forum's denizens haven't spoken to another human being face-to-face for decades. Don't worry your pretty little heads about it. Above all else, remember this: You don't have to stay forever. I will understand.

Nope, there's already a festival, there are almost certainly going to be mainland Europe dates and there are hints at further UK dates.

Fair enough. As I said, though, their manager has hinted that there may be further UK dates announced soon.

Now there's a Leeds date and who knows what support that may bring? (...apparantly some people on here!)

cant afford both...decisions decisions!

Dont take too long deciding if you intend going to the aftershow, I got the following email from artistticket.com
Congratulations!! You are amongst the first 175 tickets sold through Artist Ticket & qualify for entry to the aftershow event. When you receive your tickets there will be an additional ticket ‘stub’ on the ticket which will be used on the night at the venue for entry to the aftershow event. You must be over 18 to attend & you may be requested to provide photo id .
Dont know if numbers are limited to 175 or if they'll be selling tickets seperately, but I'm in 8)

I think I read somewhere it was for first 400 tickets, but only applies to those purchased via artistticket or the 02 direct.

Two issues in this.

(1) does anyone have an extra ticket for the brixton academy gig and (ii) the academy holds approx 3 thousand people do you think SOM could sell out this venue? :)

Well they are saying less than 200 tickets left for a near-5000 capacity Brixton Academy, so possibly

Maybe,but unlikely.However,if it was their first gig for three years,with say Von/Hussey/Adams,then yes it would.And they wouldn't need the Neffs as support.

Brixton Academy holds nearer 5000 hence the SISTERS are playing the Roundhouse which holds 3000 odd so we'll see if they can sell it out!

I know they have their fans on here but they were always one of the Leed bands from the mid 80's that I just couldn't get into. I couldn't get past the whiney vocals. :innocent: :oops:

I never really got into them, but I've liked all of their stuff I heard. I think I have "Sea of Dreams" on a cassette somewhere, with a few other demos.
I know I've played "Shattered Skies" and "Girlsoul" at club nights before though :)
