Steve Watson (Winker)

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.

Just read elsewhere that former Sisters roadie / driver, Winker has passed away. Anybody able to confirm/add to this?

Didn't know him very well, but I remember him as a right enough lad. Mates with Jez and Danny H as I recall.
Thanks to Pontiac Detroit and the citizens of Wakefield
