All the songs off Reptile House, Camden Electric Ballroom 1983. First time I'd heard them live.

Losheim. One of the worst days of my life ... with a Sisters' gig that could have been ... anything.Drsisters wrote:1993:
Silver Machine medley in Loseheim was a nice suprise

That and the fact that we could actually hear Von's voice for the first time in almost a decade.

Sorry to confuse - got a bit exuberant - not ALL the songs off the EP were played... what I meant was that hearing the songs they played from the EP was a highlight, as it was the first time I'd heard them played live.

Thanks. From that photo, I think it may have been different girls at Glasgow. (Which I suspected anyway. Probably cheaper to hire locals than bring them on tour. Can't remember what accent they spoke with but the fact that I suspected they were locals suggests they probably had Scottish accents.)Husek wrote:After i've wrote the original post, i've remembered all the fascination that some HLers have for the Cupcake Girls.

Indeed, weather wasn't too good either that day. When the regular set ended and there was no sign of them coming back on again, lots of people started leaving.Dan wrote:Sister Ray/Louie Louie/Ghostrider at Pukkelpop 1992.
There was quite a long pause before they came back out for the encore and some people missed it.
Exactly. But No time to cry in 2010 was also a big surprise. I even liked the way they played it (in contrast to some other "new" versions I don't really care about e.g. Floorshow).Ozpat wrote: 2010 Lokeren:
