Dear customer,

first of all we would like to thank you for bearing with us while eagerly waiting for the information on the re-scheduled date of the called-off show with The Sisters of Mercy. Today we are happy to announce the new date for this show. The band is going to play in Bratislava at Majestic Music Club on Wednesday, June 12th, 2024. Your tickets bought for the original date ( November 6th, 2023 ) are valid for the new date. No action is required on your part.

Confirmed on Sisters live news!

Since this most likely won't be a one off my guess is we can expect a full month if a tour from say; mid may to mid june and after that the usual couple of summer festivals.

...and Kai has just confirmed he will be playing guitar on this date aswell, so i guess we could call him a permanent replacement for Dylan now. So no Chris back on guitar anytime soon.

I wonder if we'll see Ravey Davey back any time soon. Dude will need time to grieve.

I'm in.

I'm in

Today's the day in Bratislava ... ... have lots of pleasure and fun everybody ... ...

Daily reminder that possession was on the setlist for one gig in 2014 I think and it was dropped last minute.

That said, black planet is the worst song in FALAA

Woah woah woah RAAHP and Black Planet the worst songs on FALAA?? No no I think you'll find that is Not Time To Cry...
Anyways... This is very interesting news

Cool, many thanks for posting the setlist, Peter KJ ... ...

A Rock And A Hard Place ... hihi, I've never been the greatest fan of that track, but here with the new songs it fits in nicely ... won't overdo the brutality thing ... ... Black Planet? IMHO, a wonderful songs as long as it's not combined with that idiot video ... ... and unimpressed by the latter it would also go well with the current set these days, but hell, was it ever played live at all? ... ...

Possession, nowadays ... no. Or yes ... ...

Anyway, this looks like another exciting show ... ...

First videos ... ... with many thanks to the uploaders here ... ...



and here ... ...

"Black Planet" was my warm-up song for going out clubbing, when I was young and pretty

Look, I ain't saying it's a bad song, it's just the worst song on an album packed with absolute bangers.

These videos are phenomenal for, at least two, reasons:
1. I was curious if the sound of the band is consistently good in all venue - it is
2. TOL - I literally had shivers all over my body when I was listening Kai's part.
I gotta see the band in this incarnation.

Two further videos ...

Don't Drive On Ice ... captured by Robert Herceg, and there are more vids from the show in his channel ... ...




Ribbons, thank you slavo buksar ... ... great song, great sound, great performance ... ...

Looks like it was an absolute banger of a show. Nice job Bratislava, you've waited a while for that

OMG, A Rock and a Hard Place performed live - sounds like a dream! Hope for some video or bootleg from that gig!

Summer ... waahhh ... *sigh ... what a great version, the arrangement, the fine-tuned dynamics, the guitars and not at last - the vocals ...




It must have been a breath-taking show ... ...




... whether they're Pink Floyd or not. I think they're not, fortunately ... ...

The devil may care, but I don't mind.

PLEASE say someone has a video of ARAAHP to post. Know its a bit marmite across the fans but growing up was THE one song often on repeat.

This is definitely a great version. Loved this song ever since it was played. And yes, Andrew's voice is really good here!
