Futurama 3 5th September 1981

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.

Incredibly it's 35 years ago today that TSOM played their first major festival at John Keenan's two-day extravaganza.
This gig is featured in a new post on my Sisters blog which contains a quote nicked from the pages of Heartland, some great audio from the gig, and some nice new reminiscences from Mr Keenan himself.

Mr. Lagartija I find all these forays in to the Sisters early days absolutely fascinating.

Many thanks for putting in the effort, sharing it with us and making it such entertaining reading.
