The Marching Men - First Gig

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.

That's Tim's other role. He's dual purpose.
I don't necessarily agree with everything I think.

Somebody is. The amount of people converging with cameras is getting slightly ridiculous.

If 'The Marching Men' are a Sisters tribute/covers band what is the relevance of the name (ala Sisters of Murphy) or is that not important?

I guess it's not really a suitable excuse to revisit Midge Ure's finest hour then ... :innocent:

Nup!

Ghosts of Princes in Towers is better but his finest hour is this - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IzOPMVhd ... re=related
I'm no fan of 'mixes' but the Razzormaid version of Ultravox's White China is even better, oh here it is - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UgtKJlpaTTU

;D

I'm getting more and more grateful for the apparent ridiculous amount of smoke we're gonna use and the fact that I'm wearing my shades throughout.

The amount of people coming is rather more than I expected... :eek:

I'd be there but being a foreign b@as@ard makes it difficult. Whatevr, knock 'em dead. Or failing that, just knock 'em. I trust that recorded evidence will circulate anyway. ;)
