'HERE'. The successor to 'Paint My Name in Black and Gold'

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.

Trev's working on a sequel to Waiting For Another War picking up the story where he left off. Looking forward to that. Here isn't a sequel to Paint My Name like that. At all. I'm not billing it as a sequel.

I didn't realize he was actively working on it! We've got an embarrassment of riches it seems.

I believe if you change the x.com to twitter.com it should work...

If I told them once, I told them a hundred times to put 'Spinal Tap' first and 'Puppet Show' last.

At this rate there will be more books written by fans than albums by the band…

Pledged. Also, I'm not saying Von is contrary, but if anything's going to get a fourth album out of him it's someone writing a book about how it doesn't exist. Could be the greatest win win situation of all time.

This is wonderful news.

But - a point of clarity - am I right that there are no plans in the wings to cover the 1986 - 1993 period, in a book ? - since "Here" starts 1993 onwards ?

Trevor Ristow has those plans. Mark Andrews doesn't.

Is 'here' a working title? Do we have it from the band that that would be the name of the 4th album? :)
