Video Footage of The Smurphs @ The Bassment

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.

that nice mr marx has seen it and found it highly amusing. he was mightily impressed by the geetar antics and by sid's howling :notworthy:

@ paddy: i'm afraid that's about the nearest you're going to get to an official endorsement :lol:

***UPDATE***

Most impressive, thanks to all involved, even the ginger ones :D

I so need video-capture equipment :cry:

Even a SCART-to-USB convertor would do!

without wanting to lumber anyone with a job, from what i've seen on my dvd player & read on heartland, jansenclone & derekr would appear to have rather spiffing dvd mastering facilities ;) :notworthy:

That is absolutely ace quality. And a nice reminder of the gig too.

It reminded me of...

...the way mockeldritch ambled around his square foot of stage

...the lovely Mya and her lovely goth-dancing

which is why I never noticed Paddy's new guitar. Sorry Pad.

Excellent stuff QB. As ever. More! More!
