5 days till disappointment

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.

What would constitute disappointment ? Less audible ? Same old songs ? Dwindling audiences ? More dry ice ? Rubbish t-shirt ? More classic songs messed around with ? Another hilarious instrumental ? I could go on ...

I love them the way they are. With the old songs, with the opaque dry-ice and with the sometimes poor sounds. I can’t really explain it… maybe it’s a kind of unconditional love… I think that’s what it is called… and yes, I look forward to feeling the warmth in my chest as the Doktor starts the first beats…

"sometimes poor sounds" ????? - that infers a higher percentage of "good sounds" live than I would actually give them credit for.

(I left the space before the "?"s for dramatic effect).

My bad - used to live in France for a while and they insist on it over there. And despite all the alleged faults I listed above, plus all the others I didn't (lack of live bass, lack of banter with audience etc), surely you must some curiosity about what they'll play on this tour and what they sound like. You never know, they might end up making you eat your avatar.

The old Sisters are gone. You had almost 30 years to accept this fact. If you still can't, then please at least try to stop spreading your negativity to others.

No I will not! This once was a band who were so vital, so out there that I lost my heart, mind and soul to.
So go get bent, you haven't a fuckin' clue how disappointed I am with Mr. E

Got that?

I think I understand you, but the old times are gone and will never come back. You won't bring them back by your posts on this forum and Mr.E doesn't really care what you think about him. It's time to give it up, stop watching the new Sisters and forget everything you want to forget.

although I wear glasses I can see this :evil:

LD-50: Do you think the music of The Sisters of Mercy is relevant today?

AE: As long as the world is overwhelmed by bitterness, as long as people feel love and hate and as long as the young ones like dancing, drinking and f**king, the Sisters will always be needed.
