I don't know, maybe we should check the Montreux jazz festival or some other similar highbrow event.

Who will be at the venue very early in the afternoon ?
By the way I went in front of Les Furieux yesterday and they have a small poster announcing an after show for the gig
I guess the Belgians, MB, Jos, my mate and myself will arrive in Paris between 2 and 3 pm.

So Les Furieux is gonna be the place. It has probably been mentioned before but how far from the venue is it?
Direct metro Line 5 from Porte de Pantin to Bastille (12 stations), then 5 minutes by walk from Bastille. So it is arond 30 minutes.
Adress is: 74 rue de la Roquette - Paris 11.

Okay....thanks a lot!

Just got the news about another after-party !!!
Paris lives for the Sisters on the 14th of april

Doc I guess that this after is gonna be quite juicy!
Please PM me if you find the new vector logo and I'll be more than glad
to send you the Greek tribute poster in eps format for your archive.

Mille merci mon ami!

It must be noted that Elegy is clearly a goth/dark magazine, and IMO this should be taken into account when trying to figure out what kind of party this will be. It's the old logo on the poster, and that alone says a lot : if you choose to go to this party, get ready for lots of dodgy goth records, talks of DAT and lots of complains on various topics : too much smoke, no drummer, no bass player, no Adrenochrome, Von's looks, blah, blah, blah...

Not my cuppa tea.

Obviousman · 11 Apr 2006, 18:52

Ach, we'll see where we end up after the gig, where our legs bring us and how our noses lead us towards the smell of liquor

amph_logic · 11 Apr 2006, 19:19

Come on badlander, those who will go there are not going to complain about the lack of drummer or the smoke, dont be ironic

Adrenochrome is going to be missed though!

Wanna bet ? I suggest you take a look at the US gigs threads, you'd be surprised.

Don't be ironic ? I'm sorry but you ask too much.

doctoravalanche · 11 Apr 2006, 20:58

Well I guess in every clubs we will have young teenagers that will not recognize the Sisters cause they have never really followed them or know whatsoever about the band, but anyway I suggest we all go to Les Furieux, at least we will be happ to talk all together and to meet each other, will be far more easier than in Le Klub or Les Caves.
Here is the flyer, I just got it tonight and I scanned it for you:

I promise I will send it to you as soon as I get it, should be ok before the end of the week !
You are welcome my friend

Badlander · 11 Apr 2006, 21:39

Les Furieux is quite close to my hotel.
There's no entrance fee.
It's not promoted as a goth event.
So I guess that's a no brainer !

And thanks to doc for the flyer.

doctoravalanche · 12 Apr 2006, 20:01

I proposed to Ben Christo to make him a tee-shirt like mine and to give it to him, and he told me:
" I'll come outside the venue before doors and track you down... "

amph_logic · 12 Apr 2006, 20:53

Well here is my concert tshirt

amph_logic · 12 Apr 2006, 20:55

... and my treasure, signed by mister E himself!!!!

Johnny M · 12 Apr 2006, 21:37

Ok, Paris pre-gig drink/meet up ...

We normally take over a bar within 100-200m of the venue. I'm in touch with all the Brits who'll be attending or they're in touch with someone who's standing by my side in reality.

The Dutch/Belgians are organised and sorted and have my number.

Any Germans attending that we don't know about; contact doc P who'll be with me.

Is there a focalpoint/organiser for the Frenchies? Badlander has my number.

They'll be at least four FORUM THING tees being worn and on display. Come say 'Hello'. We don't bite and we do play nicely.

See you all there.

Badlander · 12 Apr 2006, 21:44

I can't find a decent picture of myself to put in the photo gallery section.

You may call that vanity if you like.

However, what I do know is that I'll be wearing my faithful biker boots and Stetson cow-boy hat.
Also, some of you may or may not have my cell phone number, which is always useful. I'll also be wearing a brand new Amnesty International plain black t-shirt with white candle in barbed wire logo in the front.

It's still Sisters-related and it's more original than a Ramones tee IMHO. At least one you got from your local Virgin Megastore.

Vanity again.

i'm off on the big bird tomorrow so you'll have to text the answer JB, BUT i seriously think it's a good idea to sort the location of the meet up before we all start travelling and s**t

i see the venue up on the north side and read from badlander that there was little around there (apart from maybe a hotel bar?). Les Furieux keeps being touted and seems to be easy enough to get to and then direct to the gig, plus we'll know our way back to repesctive hotels later when pissed and rolling out of said

i shall be wearing my homemade 'the sisters are wank' t-shirt

ou est l'hopital etc...

Very nice! Inspite of the fact that you are still focused on the "before Floodland" era!

doc P · 13 Apr 2006, 06:24

well then:
tomorrow night

every truth will be swallowed up .......

amph_logic · 13 Apr 2006, 07:10

Sure Im focused in that era cause its the one that introduced the Sisters into my body and my soul. Its obvious though that if I carried my entire collection to be signed, Eldritch would still be at the airport with me

Obviousman · 13 Apr 2006, 07:48

All sounds ace

Really counting down now
