No I've seen that before I'm sure.

I have seen that before, but I don't recall seeing the "Martian" and "Lunar" references.

Perhaps.....


Now this is only a theory OK..


Perhaps it's all a bit like the time before the last tour dates were posted up..

The mythical "Heartland" tour dates, which I'm sure people on here will remember..

Who knows, perhaps this is a warm up for an official announcement..


It should be noted that a silver bullet is a fail safe solution to a problem, so biting one is different to biting the bullet...

Silver = 25th Anniversary

Wasn't "Me love you long time" what the prostitutes said to the American soldiers in the film Full Metal Jacket. Fingers crossed this is a reference to an American tour ( a real surprise).That would mean "Bitting the silver bullet" could mean it wasn't something he was keen on doing.

Trying to stay positive.

I agree with Pat.

Now, let's hope for more dates across the Globe. I'm hoping for a gig in Sweden, a real gig, no festival, please.

"You got a girlfriend Vietnam? Me so horny. Me love you long time."

the Lord giveth and then the bastard taketh away again

Translate Las Vegas through google you get "The Fertile valley" though it's correct Spanish translation is "The Meadows". York (UK) is situated is the Lower Derwent Valley in The Vale of York and to quote from The English Nature site " ...The Lower Derwent Valley comprises a series of flood meadows and floodlands ..."

Very good Johnny, have a gold star

I guess Francis has all of a sudden a lot of best friends.

Stick a web monkey in front of a keyboard for long enough and he will eventually type out the date of a Sisters gig.

Yep, and the queue starts behind me ...

Luckily I'm best friend with Franny too. So the fight over the guest bed is between us both.

If the Great Man comes State-side in 06, I'll eat my well-worn shoe. But this is two months away...surely they'd have to have a venue booked already if they were actually playing? Or as some have mentioned, Las Vegas is code for something else. Or we're being jerked about.

Nevertheless, 25th anniversary, good time to pack it in, or fool us with stories of packing it in.

Would be funny to bump into Von at the tables, though....

Well it sure isn't code for Ancienne Belgique in Brussels as the Simple Minds are playing there on the 16th.

There is space enough on the live news page for other dates...
Hope to read them soon.

I think some of you have been watching to many re-runs of "Dusty Bin"

Heartland goes 'classic' Game Shows!

Not only do we have Bullseye elsewhere, we now have everyone attempting that Ted Rodgers 3-2-1 flippy finger thingy that not even the Masons could master.

Some of us have been in the know for a long time now.

That's us, isn't it?

They're biting the bullet, in which case it won't kill them, no?
That's what I'm sticking to anyway.

And now, I have disappeared so far up my own analytical arse that I can see out my mouth...

Perhaps you, I don't even try to make music, that way it could never be me (nor do I consider myself a dodgy darkling )

Pretty much sounds like a "Toodle-Pip, we be gone" type comment to me

Random Gig somewhere on the 25th anniverary, and then jack it in.

Twould be perfect really.

Does anyone REALLY want to see a 30th anniversary gig somewhere near Dunstable, at some kind of rock-cafe? No, thought not.

Welcome back to Sisters World. Sadly.

They do irritate me.
