had stayed with the Sisters, what would've sounded the next record like, what direction would the band have chosen as far as touring wise? Let me know what do you think

Well considering Patricia played next to no part in Floodland anyway..... the logical progression would have been solely up to Eldo (as always), which would have been Vision thing anyway. Silly question?

Probably would have been more relevant if you had of said had Hussey, Marx and Craig stayed then what would have come after Falaa?

If Hussey, Marx and Craig strayed in Sisters then there would be no Floodland, no Vision Thing and the worst no YCBTO THE HORRORS

ofc i am joking

I'm just trying to imagine YCBTO with the FALAA line up, so so wrong yet it would be the best thing ever

I would certainly offer anything i could to be in front in a live that that scheme plays YCBTO in extended 15 minutes edition like they did that times

As a "hired hand", Pat would have had no influence musically. More respected contributors (James, Bricheno) didn't seem to have much influence on and it's hard to visualise her in the VT era band, influenced as AE was by the all-boys together alternative rawk revival of The Cult, Batfish Boys, Zodiac Mindwarp, the revitalised Iggy etc. It's a shame that Craig Adams didn't stick around as he would surely have enjoyed the VT era, although his solo stuff has ironically ended up sounding a little more ambient and therefore more reminiscent of Gift/Floodland. Who knows (starts grinding axe), had he let work through his mellow period we might still have been able to enjoy live bass in the current Sisters.

What solo stuff are you alluding to here? I just did a search for Craig Adams on discogs.com and did not find anything.

What I surprisingly found out though is that apparently Craig is/was (?) a member of Theatre of Hate. But I couldn't find out when he was nor what he played on.

I'm not much of a fan, so I'm not sure, but I want to say that Craig Adams has been touring with Theatre of Hate for the last few years. Could be wrong, though.

He did a solo cd called 'Demon King'...

I think the sound would have become more rounded...possibly with a hole in the middle, and probably glazed, or with frosting, a lot like a...what's the word...

Although I s'pose they wouldn't be short of sponsorship support for tours - "Eldritch Runs On Dunkin"...although it's possible that he wouldn't be able to fit into those snug trousers for long...

I always assumed that Patricia was hired for the big tits and the big hair to make Eldo look more MTV friendly.
If she had stayed then the next album would have been sold with a whole backing band of girlies in plastic and leather with big tits and big hair - a sort of goff Robert Palmer

Works for me.

Going back to Craig, he is of course currently working with Wayne in the M*****n on their US tour prior to the release of their new David Allen produced album The Brightest Light next month. (For anyone interested there are samples available via the MWIS website. I for one can't wait to see the full lyrics for "Just Another Pawn In Your Game" !).

He also regularly tours with both TOH and The Alarm as bass player.
You can buy his cd at Mish gigs and from here;
