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.

For you Big Man, always :kiss:

Yes, the untried and untested covers band is first to be thrown to the wolves. :wink:

By the way, many thanks to whoever's running the twitter feed for HL. This thread has been tweeted every hour, on the hour, all day!

:notworthy:

Swap Driven and Logic in the running order, and that's spot on.

Were you there, Doctor? Should have introduced yourself!

There were technical hitches, and faux-Eldritch got a little strained...but we'd like to think you left entertained.

By thee way, I don't think the support appreciated the mass exodus.

But we did.

He seemed a lovely, intelligent chap; namely, he had an official Sisters tee. :wink:

Thankyou again for coming, hope you enjoyed it - and look forward to your pictures.

Speaking of, here's a link to some professional shots of the band.

I'm my own worst critic, so I'll leave it to the masses to render judgement.

True ... :wink: ...

... however, the visual impression is also fine ...

I'd love to hear the full version of Driven ... that has a very cool sound now ... but the vid ends before much of the singing ... hhm ...
