The new guitarist

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.

By the power invested in me, the new fella is hereby officially called Gary, whether he wants to be or not.
As he is a colonial type, can't we call him Gary, Mate? :lol:
All these Gary's makes me think of 'Only Fools and Horses'

I mean, not even Gary is called Gary, so it makes sense to me.

It just feels so good to have both Gary and Ben back. :)
If I told them once, I told them a hundred times to put 'Spinal Tap' first and 'Puppet Show' last.

Back from the Hellfest : the "dude" did musically a perfect job. A lot of good vibes, enthousiasm...A little too much heavy metal attitude sometimes but hey, he did it. Respect.

Well I didn't see this coming. Sisters news before the next decade rolled around, colour me gobsmacked.

What a nice cutting board with hi-res was used to take picture of Gary, I'd rather use stool, but that was good to, as we can see.

Dave Humphries and Tom Ashton as well? Or were they sufficiently short-lived that we'll exclude them too?

They are listed as such, so I omitted them...

I think I saw Jovanka von Wilsdorf play guitars - during the Oberbombing Tour at least - on stage as well.
I guess that was a wrong impression and I've changed that now.
Until anybody else can confirm the contrary ...

From the clips I've seen, Mr Smith appears to have done a smashing job. Some nice bite in those power chords.

I'm pretty sure Choque Hosein (The Hollow Men/Salvation) never did any TV appearances with the Sisters - wasn't it Eddie Martinez at that time during the Floodland promotion?
