TSoM live at V N Gaia - Porto - Portugal

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.

I thought of Paris Airports as well. Perhaps even CDG :lol:

Not sure about this one, I might, but I was kind of planning THF around that time of the month instead actually, so...

HOW Lazy is it that we get the confirmation through a sound man. Will there be a mannequin doll onstage as Dr. Eldo or what??

I agree with Diego. The man's lazy, but at least he found himself a more communicative soundman.

Laziness could be one of the reasons for the lack of update, but come on, how long does it take to add a few words to a website, 12 to 14 minutes including the log in and preview and save and log out? Who can be THAT lazy?
Or:
1. the gigs are not 100% certain for whatever reasons,
2. there are talks underway about more gigs and the laziness makes the man think it will be easier to update the site once everything is ready to be updated,
3. our frenzy is actually quite amusing to watch,
4. there are other reasons that we couldn't possibly imagine.
:?

My bet is 4.

3. and it has been for sometime

1. well, if the band aren't yet in a position to confirm :lol: :wink:
2a. very possible:innocent:
2b. nah, has been the 'sisters' way to take your cash, pause and then take more :evil: plus it enforces 3.
4. four doesn't exist, well, not in a way that you can imagine

As Eva said somewhere TERNAT 01 never was confirmed in the official site,

DID THEY PLAY THERE?? YES!!!

if an official festival site announce a group for more than a mounth is because they have it contracted. IF NOT LOOK HOW THE MARES VIVAS SITE DELETED "THE CULT" SO QUICKLY, because the cult cancelled the gig.

if the sisters is in a festival web site for more than a mounth and his sound man confirm it in his myspace for me is almost enought..

the sisters web site?? matter of time or mayby not as happend in 01 whit TERNAT :innocent: :innocent: :innocent:

don´t see ghost where there aren´t....

I have no idea how this complicated machine works, but if there is a festival, on which lots of bands will play anyway, does the income of one particular band depend on the number of tickets sold? If that's the case, I can forgive - I've always admired people who have the instinct to earn more with less effort :notworthy: , plus it enforces the fact that I can forgive 3 without a slightest doubt. :lol:

You can forgive him almost anything without the slightest doubt!! :kiss:

Yes, kids, I'm back... sort of.

So, are you two planing on going anywhere? And the rest of HLnders?

I'm going to Gaia even without an official confirmation. (After all, it's only a short drive from here :twisted: )

Anybody looked into accommodations around? any advice? I'm not fond of camping, too uncomfortable! :oops:

See you there!

great thanks the-happenning.

The heat kinda decides it for me, I'd suffer for a Cult/Sisters show though 8)

Enjoy this show, like Andrew may enjoy these tormented ramblings :kiss:

I'm going to Tienen, and so is PIB I hope.
Gaia is too far ( = expensive to get to), and on a very wrong date. :(
Apart from that, I still hope that there will be more dates this summer, and that I'll get to know about them before it's too late to book time off work. :evil:
Accommodation? For about a third of a night? Who cares? :lol:
