Interviews

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.

Hello,

has someone around here got a list with interviews of the sisters which appeared on vinyl (single, EP) or CD?

Thanks for the help! :notworthy:

Some are mentioned here (scroll down to section 4; interview section) but I think you know about the site.

Sisters and Pinkpop? It ain't gonna happen ...

The guy who runs that circus (Jan Smeets) doesn't choose "good" bands, he chooses "commercial" bands. Can't really blame him though ...

Pinkpop works together with the German festival "Rock Am Ring" Both festivals are in the same weekend, so "expensive" bands can play both festivals on their tour with less expenses for the organizers. Thanks to this joined booking strategy it is possible for a rather small festival like Pinkpop to have "big names".

If this wasn't the case though, there would be a chance for the Sisters to play Pinkpop...

The Sisters also played in Maastricht and Aachen back in the mid eighties, very much around where I live (and Ozpat).

Wish I'd been there (I was 11 years old, listening to Run DMC) :lol: Still like 'm though ...

I never would talk bad about the sisters but I am feeling that I missed something, those early sisters. Better knowing them late than never, so...
