AE married?

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 was looking at this pic (below) of AE taken in 2003 and it looks as if he might be wearing a wedding ring. Anyone heard anything about this? Is this old news? :|

I would have done something, but I was overwhelmed by a lack of concern.

Somehow, I get the impression that Von will always be a bachelor boy.

and thanks for showing that pic, CtrlAltDelete- it always makes me giggle.

He never really talks about his family does he? I get the impression there was some tension there.

Having said that, I don't think many parents would be too chuffed with their son a) leaving Oxford uni to go to Leeds and then b) leaving Leeds uni to be in a rock-band :lol:

Andy said in an interview years ago that he stopped having anything to do with his parents. Whether that has since changed, I don't know. I suppose it can difficult when you reinvent yourself.

It's interesting, the family angle. I mean, what can you conclude when someone says they stopped 'having anything to do' with their family? He did mention he has 'one of each', brother and sister.

There is an interview online, I'm sure some of you have read it, from a radio station (about '93, I believe) where Von is on the car phone, and mentions he hasn't seen his mother in 15 years. (The DJ was asking abotu what he would get his mother for Christmas, etc.)

It is intriguing, and there's obviously something there, maybe some resentment or something.

Similar to a Jim Morrison situation, also the son of an army brat, a well-spoken and excessive rocker who completely transformed in his early 20s into a 'rock God'.

I think he said once it's all because he didn't follow the career path they had laid out for him.

Thankfully.

I always though the ring might be something to do with Clare.
Tends to disappear when he's got a girlfriend.
As for marriage, one get's the impression that AE is searching not so
much for Miss Right as Miss Right Now!
That, and in true rock star fashion, as he gets older the women stay the
same age!

A bit embarassing when he's 70 (diabetes/drugs/smoking/alcohol/life) permitting, surely?

But with his riches, shades of Dirk Bogarde (sp?) and I can't remember the films name ...? :roll:
Loki was never worshiped as the other Gods,
Which is quite understandable.
