Andy's sunglasses.

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.

Does he wear another pair undernieth? Think he tapes them on? Too much time, too many questions.

Didn't someone try to take them during one of the 1985 US shows, prompting a colossal hissy fit and subsequent abandonment of the gig?
If I told them once, I told them a hundred times to put 'Spinal Tap' first and 'Puppet Show' last.

This was Mon, 03-Jun-1985: Chicago - USA - Cabaret Metro. An audience recording does exist but I'm not 100% sure I have it. See the page on the sisterswiki.org for details for anyone who doesn't know, I don't know if you do

They come off as soon as he comes off the stage, so he can amble about stealing drinks and pinching people's bums and NOBODY knows who he is.

i''m told that at one of the 1984 leicester gigs -i wasnt there- someone actually nicked them off him but he got them back. and i think i read that at the 10th birthday gig in Leeds he actually took them off so the fans could see him. having seen him a couple of times pre-gig wearing clear prescription glasses i can say he looks less like eldritch in those than you would think.
