I was a student during the mid 80's and a big fan of the sisters from the early days through the first last alway album. That period for me is the sisters at their absolute prime.

I though floodland was mainly ok and vision thing junk and drifted away.

15 years later.......

Saw they were touring and got tickets to see them in Manchester for old times sake. I'm dissapointed they don't play with a live bass player any more. To me the bass was a key element to so many great songs (possession especially)

I'm the mean will got this on ebay to frame up to remind me of some great times.....

If they could release some good new material I guess there are loads of old fans like me out there waiting to come back to the fold.....

Disuised in black also comes by the name Gimme shelter : it's Newcastle 13 March 85. Perfect sound, perfect performance, perfect set list. One of only two live performances of Nine while nine ever.
I've "only" been a Sisters fan for 15 years. That makes you older timer. :wink:

I always liked Black October Colchester Essex Uni 84 - Not perfect but loud, the Doktor on Floorshow is bowel-evacuating. You may wish to visit the weeding forum.
