New 1983 gig photos on the Wiki !

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.

Not that many '83 gigs left to cover now, thanks to all the help I have had from people on here and on FB, but would love an eye witness account from anyone who was at any other TSOM gigs in 81-83 in particular.
I really adore your blog ... :notworthy: :notworthy: :notworthy: ... it's such a wonderful read, and of course I've linked it

Btw, does anybody know why the venue is called Rafters Gallery instead of The Gallery in various gigographies? :?:

A mistake?

It would appear they're 2 different venues. Rafters was on Oxford Street, Manchester, while the blog says The Gallery was on the corner of Deansgate and Peter Street.

Well done, @Being ! There are fewer and fewer "blanks" on the early days. And I have a feeling that there may be further updates required before too long !
