Does exactly what it says on the tin. Some of the nonsense contained herein may be very loosely related to The Sisters of Mercy, but I wouldn't bet your PayPal account on it. In keeping with the internet's general theme nothing written here should be taken as Gospel: over three quarters of it is utter gibberish, and most of the forum's denizens haven't spoken to another human being face-to-face for decades. Don't worry your pretty little heads about it. Above all else, remember this: You don't have to stay forever. I will understand.

Lead singer from now defunkt band Lyca Sleep on the Unsigned Band stage at Leeds a couple or three years ago.

As I said, a very technical shot to do, that would be faaaar to difficult to explain how it was set it up...... :innocent:

me likey that shot Ness, I have something quite similar from a (secret?) Bunnymen gig in Dundee c.82 (the night the Suffolk was hit in that Falklands PR exercise) but mine was just down to the lighting rig being three anglepoise lamps and a really long (like 3 second) exposure, must scan it and get in online :D :notworthy:

It's the largest freestanding building in Scotland.

And the only building in the world capable of rotating 360 degrees into the prevailing wind.

Obviously.

I believe it does. I only learned that recently - it previously caused me no end of confusion!
