Good evening dear myheartland! Thank god this is no speech as I barely have a voice left so imagine *sexy voice*....
Zenith de Paris ~ The Sisters of Mercy rocked that venue like no other!
The start of this story begins from the moment our group (the crazy bunch) which was Ozpat, Leo, Obviousman, christophe, radiojamaica, TourGuider and myself met up with hallucienate (my SA tribal brother), Johnny M (Utterly Bastard Groovy himself), Sabine (lovely and friendly), doc P (our amazing doc) and Sandra (his stunning wife!), and of course the one and only PiB (cryptic love), for a drink before the queuing started.
In the HL queue met eva (red head beauty), Andrew S (lovely man), czuczu (what a pleasure!), Badlander (everthing I expected) and his brother and sister later during the gig!
Inside the venue, which was starting to fill up and it was a rush from leaving Johnny M and Jos waiting for Quiffy Boy, Jo and the snowey's to arrive to going down to the pit where the HL crowd had rooted our places at the front. Having a drink and a chat through Nihil (one number he stood on stage and did the gesture of jesus christ on the cross - I forgave him as it was Good Friday). Then I kinda lost interest and our god and Jo and the rest of the HL family are more important, so I rushed back up all those stairs that I couldn't see that well as it was dark dammit, and found Quiffy (you were almost too late!) and Jo (words could not express
), the amazing Mrs. snowey and her lovely husband snowey, had another drink and then it was the move to the front as TSOM were about to make an appearance.
The smoke started and light check, playlists on stage, and the tension in the venue was exciting! The Sisters of Mercy came on stage and it rocked from the minute go!
i was wrong brought a tear to my eye as
sang it from his soul, you could hear it!
In fact they were brilliant on stage together and the public were stunning too! When so many people are loving a show which was beyond words that electricity in the air when the crowds were howling along with the lyrics or the appreciation was shown by the stomping of feet from those sitting, the applause that never seemed to die and the whistling of Jo! "the sound of ten drunken sailors"
(I've asked for lessons).
The smoke was amazing, the sound was brilliant and the colours too. Standing at the front you got to see tunnels
had one moment with his voice but it was only a moment and they really did pull it together for Paris!
The Sisters of Mercy rocked like I've never seen them rock!
Yes, in my opion, that coat
wore made him look like a girl. It's a girlie coat and I would love to take that man shopping on his expense of course, just to help out. If need be I could even help him with the mix-matching of outfits to make it easy!
The whole gig left me with the hairs on my arms standing on end and the rest of my body on fire! The set up now of TSOM is outstanding and I do believe if they carry on as is, it's only going to get better!
needed that warm up! Thank you States!
The after gig drinking and chatting carried on within the HL walls and here I would like to say doctoravalanche, I'm sorry I didn't get to chat to you although I saw you. A next time...or a weed?
To all of you thank-you! It was a brilliant night out but that was due to us being there as a whole
To QB ~ thank you for the rose
To Jo ~ you are the whistle goddess
To my Belgium boys and Ozpat *couldn't have done it without you all! thank you too!
