Laura the Lurker

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.

Hi Sisters,
I've been lurking far too long & with some help, have now finally joined you. My introduction to The Sisters was the York Racecourse festival as a teenager. My friend Dizzy and I used to hitch to gigs in 84/85 and had a ball. My membership could be short lived if I'm forced to give an honest opinion on YCBTO :wink:

Welcome! :notworthy:

You could always give a dishonest opinion... ;)
If I told them once, I told them a hundred times to put 'Spinal Tap' first and 'Puppet Show' last.

Thanks for the warm welcome.
This is a far more cosy set up than FB.
I've had a good old giggle reading some of the posts on here over the years so yes, I'm a long term lurker.
I'm originally from Liverpool but now live in a town called Wrexham in North Wales (has anyone seen the film Deliverance?).
Confession time:- on Saturday, I was at a That Guitarist gig and although I had a great night with my mates and copious amounts of Gin, I couldn't help but wish it was a Sisters gig & fantasised about how awesome it would be to see them again :von:

Reason I asked - I saw 'they' were playing at The Bearded Theory fest.

Playing under the name Blood Brothers.

Now, totally random I know but I would love to hear Von cover Diamonds & Rust (Judas Priest version). Anyone else or just me?

Hi there welcome to the boards :)

I was going to guess somewhere in Essex for your location but Wrexham says it all ;)

The same as the difference between The Sisters & Near Meth Experience.
