Filming

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.

Hello & welcome :)
I would assume the band is having the shows filmed & that Von's prolly got the recordings stashed away somewhere.
When you're on stage, it's difficult to know how everything looks & to be able to see it from an audience perspective is probably one way of being able to make tweaks to technical cues for future shows.
Cheers.

most Sisters gigs are video'd and have been for a long while. ALL Sisters gigs are recorded by [s] International Assassins [/s] the band for their own uses.

Back in the mid to late 90s, Dean was the camera guy. He said that there were no plans to ever release the recordings and that they were kept for personal reference only. He was an old friend of Andrews and was along for the ride and for fun. Nice guy.

Jessica also filmed a lot of material for Andrew.
Andrew Eldritch Dour Festival 1997: Yeah, We take any request... As much as we ever do.
