Gig 3 - Do I see a tour emerging? ;-)

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.

Can someone help a really sad Yank who might want to travel to Holland to see TSOM?

Any details--where is the venue, exactly, how to get there (I may do a UK trip, then hop over to Holland). Any recommendations. I know Eldo ain't coming to the USA, fine, but I did have an absolute blast in 03 during Smoke and Mirrors, I must admit, and would love to catch the man in action again, despite my bitching about his antics (no releases, same old same old).

Any help would be very appreciated. And I'm once again ready to accept abuse from my friends for travelling across the world to catch a band that is barely active, yes.

Allegedly, I've seen them 'at their best' at Leeds University on the Black October tour. Give me one good reason.

Apart from the fact that you good people will be there.

Hmm, chances of getting a train from the Dam to Eindhoven - zero. It was bad enough trying to get to the HMH from the Leidseplein the other year. So it'd be a waste of a couple of gig tickets. I'll save my money for Mera Luna.

Trains from Dam to Eindhoven zero, hmm well just checked their rail timetable journey time 1hr 29 minutes change at Utrecht. Cost 28 Euro. Leidseplein to HMH no problem for me! although leidseplein is the perfect place to go to the paradiso!
