Lovely, DJ_Fakir ... ...

it's very cool, you let us know about such stuff ...
(unfortunately, I live too far away to enjoy that event) ...

Anyway, have great fun everybody who can make it there ... ...

Ah yes, and welcome ... ...

Thanks
...I know it will be a miracle, if somebody comes because I put "ad" here, but miracles do happen sometimes. (...and I thought this is quite target group )

We are two friends (me and MikoBofS) organizing - time by time - parties and concerts in Prague from 1997, under name "ghostCafe". It was my friend MikoBofS, who lent me first MC-casette of Sisters (in 1992, I think). And it was his idea, to organize this Sisters party, as it is 20 years ago, when he saw Sisters for the first time (@ Pukkelpop Festival 1992).

I saw Sisters 8 times (if I count good):
22 June - 1996 - Munich, Germany - Helter Skelter Festival
(few days after Munich we went from Prague to Hamburk, to same "Helter Skelter Festival", which was cancelled :-()
07 June - 1997 - Glauchau, Germany - Woodstage Festival
17 Jan - 1998 - Prague, Czech Republic - Mala Sportovni Hala (first time in Czech Republic)
09 Mar - 2001 - Prague, Czech Republic - Sky Club Brumlovka
02 Apr - 2003 - Leipzig, Germany - Haus Auensee
12 Aug - 2005 - Tabor, Czech Republic - Love Planet Festival
23 Apr - 2006 - Berlin, Germany - Columbiahalle
01 Apr - 2009 - Prague, Czech Republic - Archa Theatre

...the best one for me was Woodstage Festival in Glauchau. Sister were headliners. Before them played Front 242. There was the biggest amount of Sisters t-shirts walking around me, many Sisters tattooes on skins, the most rich merchandising (incl Heartland magazines, old official t-shirts etc. Not only usual stuff which they sell on tours), and it was amazing gig. For me the best one!

...the most terrible one was the last one I saw in Archa Theatre. We were standing in front, but we did not hear anything more, than on acoustic shows in pubs. We had to sing, because we did not hear Andrew but even guitars and Dr. Avalanche were sooo quite. Some people lost a few songs, just because they were next door on bar and did not except that this quite sound from next door is from stage. Many people (incl. me) screamed to sound master to put it more loud with no success. Archa theatre than wrote on their website an appologies to fans, saying that it was Andrews wish to play that quite.

...UFF, SORRY FOR LONG STORY, I AM HERE NEW, SO I WANTED TO INTRODUCE MYSELF AN OUR PARTY A BIT

Hmmm... tempting I'll be there, if I find a (cheap) place to stay overnight. Unless I decide to take the first train/bus back the next morning

Doulfe:
try some of these hostels:
http://www.nelso.cz/cz/zizkov/hostel/

if you looke at map on that page, the venue is situated in between No. 3 (Pillow hostel) and wrriting "Parukarka" (in the left corner of the park, in the underground bunker)

I think that all listed hostels are cheap and okey to stay. All of them are close enough to walk a few minutes from venue.

I would say first try hostel Marabou. (I got use it for band Zombina and the Skeletones from UK and they loved that). But as I said - I thing all those 7 hostels in the area may be good in my eyes.
