Secret Warm-Up Gig?

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.

"Shooting oneself in the foot" seems to be the modus operandi since the early 90's, actually.

Does he actually wear a wig? How effective are these disguises anyway? I'm pretty sure I'd clock him, he does have a pretty distinctive face after all, shades or no shades.
