No Mistake

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.

'No Mistake' were the words on a promotional poster in the style of 'Some Girls Wander by Mistake' in summer '92. It may have been plastered around the U.K but I saw it in Hamburg. I'd like to get hold of a copy.

Does anyone have a spare they'd like to sell to me or has anyone noticed copies for sale, on ebay for instance. ?

From 01-03-04:

Sean Hughes takes audience to pub

Irish comedian Sean Hughes invited his audience to the pub after only 25 people turned up for one of his shows.

The former Never Mind The Buzzcocks host was playing a gig in the Guildhall Theatre in Bury St Edmunds, Suffolk.

But when only two dozen people showed up, he decided to whiz through his act before inviting everyone to a pub 200 yards away for a drink. Twelve people took up his offer to join him in the Hide Bar and Kitchen.

Later he took three of the audience members for an Indian meal, says the Daily Mirror.

Fan Edward Gostelow said: "There was no interval so he tore through his stuff and then took everybody who wanted to go to the pub. I think it was all a bit strange for him because only 25 people turned up for the show."

Thanks for that albeit seemingly unrelated reply. :) No one seems to know anything about this promotional poster :?: Most peculiar and most intriguing. I'll post the question on Dominion later and see what happens.

I just happened to find one online a week ago on a german poster shop/website. I have a picture if you like ? Even better I could ask if they have more copies ?

There's also one for ASCOOB with 'Gnadelos Gut!' message on top, haven't seen that one for many years ...

I saw it a few times in German record stores at that time. One year later they had a poster saying "No Mercy" to promote ASCOOB. I had a copy of it, but lost it a few years ago :(
