The Sisterhood - 09 December 2016 - The Lexington, London

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.

Having had a quick look on Google - it would appear there is a female duo who do West Coast folk. Could be them? :?

I remember years ago looking at the gig dates on teletext and seeing that The Sisterhood were doing 2 nights at Wakefield Rooftop Gardens. I can't remember the date but it wasn't too long after the release of This Corrosion. After a bunch of phonecalls I was able to discover it was a false alarm, a different Sisterhood.

Have they rushed out any recorded effort to lay claim to the name?

Far as I know, the copyright/trademark only lasted 25 years before reverting back to public domain... at least according to US law.
