another summer spoilt

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.

Its well known that the girls dont really play the UK in the summer though, am not starting saving just yet, did see a thingy about Chris playing with turbonegro tho on his myspace..........
Not as good as Motorhead, but better than The Birthday Party, which makes us pretty damn good.

If they would just come to Finland for a second time. I have absolutely no money for travelling outside the country.

And i really hate myself for the last years gig, i was so damn drunk back then that i remember barely any details about it. Well, i didn't even know the band back then...

I agree with Lee. I think it'll be Summer festivals & nothing else. Hoping otherwise of course...

I'm crossing fingers, eyes, toes for a UK date.

I reckon they should headline THIS. Saw Echo & the Bunnymen there last year (fave Mac quote of the day= "have these Ben & Jerry dudes got any ice, ice for the bev?") So ~ tons of free ice-cream, a helter skelter & the Girls ~ what summer idyll? Ah, but tickets were only £5, can't see it happening :D :von:

Am overjoyed they're playing, and really didn't expect it this year. Time to raid the piggybank. Thank G*th the Astoria won't be my last Sissies show and i won't make the mistake of staying so sober this time :D

Yea, it just happened that the festival day was nearing it's end and i thought "well, nothing intresting left to see, i'll just get wasted" and then a friend of mine grabbed me by the neck saying "come on, you gotta see the best band on the planet".

And oh yes, in Finland a festival tends to mean an infernal drinking party.
