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.

Is this guy available (thanks Iz )?
As for a live drummer, sure, but as an accompanist, not a replacement. The differing sounds could mesh well in studio tracks. (How long before someone comments about the notiion of studio tracks?)
Interesting thing about that pic Martin is the guy on the far right behind the amps, that's Riamey McCabe who was The Meteors drummer at that time and the finest drummer I ever played (musically) with.

Thank you for adding the word musically, even if only within parentheses.
A flesh-and-blood drumer wouldn´t be right at all for the girls.
But the bass.. There are two groovy and competent guitarists now, who surely know bassists that are competent enough to handle the Sissie´s songs and add fun to the show.
A basser really is overdue.
Think about finding one, big chief. I am sure you won´t regret it.
Oh, and I think we know one as well..?

I cannot (nor do not) want to hear The Sisters with a flesh and blood drummer, but I do reckon a living breathing bass player would really gel this combo.
Sorry Biggy I think you're wrong, the line up as it stands has 'skill and fire', a new singist might be in order.

Agreed!
Seeing both the new incarnation of the Nephs & the velly good current Mish line-up recently, i found meself thinking (around pint numero 5) "gawd i wish The Girls had a fooking live bass player"....
Having read the comments about the Spain show, V:von:N really needs to book that thar bassist in!
