The Sisters On This Day

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.

In that case, can I mention that 21st September got missed. I don't know if any others have, but I noticed that one, because I was waiting for it to pop up at the time.

They definitely did

Vienna, Gasometer on 21.09.17.

It's every man for himself mate, don't wait on these dates popping up, post away if you're the first one looking :lol:. What's the significance of that one to you?


After we've covered tomorrow, I think it's m*****n accomplished, I'm not spending another year checking the gigography every day to see if anything got missed time around :)

Ha! Sorry :lol:
I think at the time I couldn't remember my password or was suffering another bout of posting paranoia :oops:

It was the last Sisters gig I went to was why I noticed.

Ha! Oh no, that honour should go to someone who has put the legwork in, not a Johnny come lately like me. :)

And in a fitting finale, nobody was about to claim the 'honour'. Has this made the whole thread null and void?

So, on 31st May, the Sisters have played only one show, it was in 1984, in Lier in Belgium - https://sisterswiki.org/Thu,_31-May-1984.

So, what have we learned from this? Around about one year ago, I learned how to upload photos to Heartland. I have since forgotten how to do this. All I recall is that it's a massive pain in the arse.

Thanks to everyone who has contributed to this thread, especially Pista and Being645, forget couldn't, I wouldn't have done it without you :lol:.

I now have a healthy list of Sisters shows to track down so that I can repeat the whole process again in years to come. Today, I am listening to the Sisters live in Chicago, on June 3rd, 1984.
