Never played?

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.

I read something on this here a while back, but can't seem to find it.
Is there a list of songs the sisters never played live?

I'd try to think it all up, just in my sleep deprived state I can only think of
1) Black planet
2) bury me deep (To my knowledge)

Thanks!

Also, is there any known or interpreted reason behind not playing black planet? That would have fit in well with the Wake setlist.

Oh, thanks!

Oh, and far parade? if that counts... :wink:

Shame about DLTS, one of my favourite of their songs.

1959 (apart from a "teaser" at the '92 NEC gig)

Nine While Nine.

And 1959, apart from a tease of the beginning once.

EDIT: Beaten to it!

Maybe, what you remember is:
Sat, 17-Mar-2001 - Coliseu, Porto, Portugal

The support act (Phantom Vision) not allowed to perform as they were allegedly "too goth".

Nono, I mean the song. Somewhere early 80-ish, but there are smarter people around here ;)

I have made a vote sometime ago with all the unplayed songs in the list it will be a good reference to search it...
Question was Which one of the unplayed in concert songs you would like to hear at a live, or something similar :wink:
'Are we the Baddies?'...

The Arena? They should be so lucky! :lol:

IIRC, they've never played 'Blood Money' live.

Or Wide Receiver, or Good Things.

Pretty sure they've never played Agadoo live or anything by The Wurzels. Whaddayamean that's not what you meant?
Any more of that and we'll be round your front door with the quick-setting whitewash and the shaved monkey.
