Petra

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.

As in the Dominion Video.

Anyone been there? If so, did you go because of the video, or were you just passing through southern Jordan, and got bored? Anyone leave any :von: Graffiti?

I've been, and would heartily recommend it to anyone, but especially Sisters fans. I was in the West Bank, a bit bored, so I went down to Aqaba and travelled up that way. As you do. Go down to the Dead Sea and turn left, then first right up past where they filmed Lawrence of Arabia.

A beautiful city filled with wonderful people (and very astute businessmen).

Leave graffiti? How very passé. I left a hell of a lot more than that.... ;)
