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.

I've written twice within the last year or so requesting some kind of merchandise list but received no reply.

I seem to recall someone on here a month or two back saying that it was still valid though. (I was just unlucky maybe...)

Same here. No reply.

I seem to recall TH went round to physically check the address and found a door with a letter box with a massive pile of post stacked up inside.

Presumably mine and PL's amongst it. :|

That was the one on the lyric sheet of the Reptile House EP. Isn't the 'official' Reptile House address a PO Box? Is there a way of checking whether these are still active? My advice would be not to send any cash until you've found that out at least.

i know sam donut asked about this last year too...

i suspect its a "no" :roll:

...which begs the question why are they even bothering with the "coming soon" page on the RH website?

Thrash Harry, you should have put some sellotape over the doorbell. That would have roused the lazy feckers to come to the door and pick their mail up.

No sign of life, I'm afraid. Mind you, it was still daylight.

I've just remember something actually...
About 4 years ago I wrote off for a merchandise thingy. They sent me one back & all the t-shirts (there must have been 30 listed) were all really cheap. They had the zippo on there, UTR, loads of stuff. I sent back my (rather substantial) order back with card details on & didn't hear another word. (& didn't suffer a bank account issue luckily)

I think us Leeds h'landers should take over the reigns & get it going again!!!

God forbid we would actually want to bankroll the Sisters at this point--sheesh. You think the one site that WOULD work would be one to sell t-shirts through, I mean, really, how much could this operation cost? It's practically a one-man job! They like to break out old UTRs and old concert passes at the actual gigs, how hard is it to sell mail order?

Lazy bastardos!
