Sisters play Suikerrock !!!

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 really don't want to be Buzz Killington here, but is anyone else concerned that this date isn't on the website? I mean, they've usually been pretty good about updating that sort of thing - any chance that they're not confirmed to play the festival?

they just wait for 2 festivals more to come (at least) and then they will update "official". don't worry, it looks like 100% for me ;D
festivals are good but not the best. maybe some little europe tour :innocent: :lol:

Well, at least that's a certain sign that they are planning to do some gigs this summer - if not that one, then surely some others.

I’m currently in Los Angeles
Hey guys,
Just in case anyone’s wondering where I am...I left London last
Tuesday in order to fly to L.A. and rehearse with Ayin Aleph
for her forthcoming European tour. It was a last-minute thing!

I’ll be back in London on April 28th and will be working
hard with Night by Night in preparation for our next (second ever) show.

If you need to get in contact, please message me here or at my regular email address.

Special the part of "the coming back and the preparation for our next (second ever) show" I like

Let see what is going to happen and if it is going to be a hot summer

Saw something about a BBQ.
Good plan :!:
