iPOD SHUFFLE

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.

the godfathers hold the distinction of being the band i've seen live the most...19 times at the last reckoning which is even more than motorhead. i saw them first for £1 at the local poly way back in the day, when the only song by them i knew was "i want everything". it soon became a habit and chris (kris?) dolymore still stands as the consistently best live guitarist i've ever seen (even when he was with the damned who are otherwise pants live.)

:notworthy: one of the best live bands I've seen. Always expected Peter Coyne to turn up on Eastenders playing a villain ! Apparently though he just does work as an 'extra' (inthe Harry Potter films for example). They're on tour in Belgium and France at the minute and supporting SLF in the UK next month if anyone's curious. Still releasing new stuff too unlike certain bands I could mention :innocent:

Saw them last year in Birmingham. :notworthy:
