Bexrock setlist

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.

Lucretia and Neverland?
You jammy, jammy bastards.
:cry:

I shall be inconsolable until they play the UK again, and by then they'll probable have dropped one or both!

Details please, I need my Fix.
Did Adam play bass for Lucretia?

Hope they play the same setlist in Belgium. Have they ever played Neverland live? I don't think so...

IZZY.

Not that I'm aware of.
And apart from chucking in a few lyrics during one of their encore medley improvs, I don't think Lucretia has been played live since Reading '91.

I must say I thought Never Land was "Never Enough" from the Cure...

I'm not really sure, but once the bootleg comes in
I will listen once more.

The guitars and keyboards reminded me of the Cure anyway

Neverland is taken straight from the album Floodland. But the song did sound much better live then it did on the album.

having heard the boot, its definitely never land (3 minute version), but the lead synth part at the ending seems longer & expanded... plays a rather nice part actually :smile:

i wasnt overly keen on the re-working of lucretia - a lot of the groove and character seemed to have been lost... but that may just have been because they were still warming up :smile:

Lucretia as an opener.... quite fancy that, perhaps preceded by Coulours....

As for Neverland.... bit of a suprise there !!! we will have to get cracking.... we did Driven at one gig which was cool.... perhaps its time for that again !

Well as I wasn't there, so I can't comment too much, but

IMHO Lucretia is well cool, alot different than the early '90's rendition.

Neverland, hmm.. not sure, too short to be a real song

SUBLIMINAL MESSSAGE:

1st set list ever with no cover versions

Maybe our mod’s criticisms of recent covers have been taken to heart

Intro...

some kind of groovy drum/techno intro, quite short (1 min max.) by our old friend Dr Avalanche. I liked it....
Never heard before, must be a homegrown newbie.

Was this intro a "new song", or a drum-only taster of a new song? You never know...
