Support

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 may have been very drunk and I just dreamed it but did NIN ever support SOM?

I seem to recall seeing a SOM support with 2 drummers and for some reason I think Trent was singing. I think it was a gig at NEC but can't be too sure?

That was Murder Inc - they supported The Sisters at NEC '92.
They had two drummers and Chris Connelly of Ministry/RevCo fame was on vocal duties. The band also contained members of Killing Joke (Geordie Walker on guitar and Paul Raven on bass).

One of the drummers was Paul Ferguson, and I think the other was Martin Atkins. Basically it was Killing Joke doing something without Jaz Coleman because they were all p*ssed off with him.
To not know and to ask a question is a moment of embarrassment; to not know and not ask is a lifetime of shame.

I was in the "Standing" area at this gig! It was June 26th 1992! - AFAIK!

Murder Inc were great as a support band but the female fronted band - Sun (Something) were IMHO much much better!

I dont suppose that anyone has a CD to Trade/Weed of this Sisters gig percance?

They were called Sunshot and they featured Tim Bricheno's brother Toby on guitar, so I was told.

If they have, may I join the queue? :innocent:
