Beard...or NOT to Beard.

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 think his best look was long hair and leather. But i think he looks very cool in the dominion video, he suited the beard!

He certainly wears a beard a lot better than most.

Nice changes to the avatar mf - let's see a beard on it now.

Interesting story - the Dominion vid was the first time I'd seen the Sisters (aside from TC, but that doesn't count cos I was in no condition to remember) and I got the idea from somewhere that Von may perhaps be blind.

Shades, cane, the way he staggers about "dancing", y'know
If I told them once, I told them a hundred times to put 'Spinal Tap' first and 'Puppet Show' last.

I had an attack of Treppenwitz about that post. What I should have said was:

Andrew gives good beard.

I'm not a fan of beards in general either, but I think AE looked quite sexy with one.

Slightly off topic, but I almost bought a white suit for my new job, in Next today. Just don't have the hair and Beard anymore to pull it off! :roll:

Ah. Good point. We don't want Von looking like Catweasel now do we?

Regret to inform you, beard or no beard, in that era of the Sisters everyone was looking at Patricia, not Von...
.... there is no semblance of rock 'n roll around here!
