Von's New Year's Resolutions

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.

  • 1. Quit smoking - for reelz this time
    2. Finally get up the courage to ask that girl in the Spar out
    3. Spend less time lurking on internet forums
    4. Make a real effort to get my 5-a-day
    5. Call Ben, Chris, and Jim, and see if they'd be up for a couple of days in the studio
    6. Train Mr. Fuffly to perform tricks so that I can quit this life of an itinerant underpaid musician and join the circus.

- care even less about his audience;
- whisper even more during gigs;
- have even more fun from playing gigs;
- learn that dog treats are not regular food;
- learn that chocolate for dog is for dog. And only for dog.

.. But the accessories are really cool. 8)

When looking at the pic carefully we can see interesting things hanging from Von's belt (trousers). A shawl at the back (which you cannot see on this pic but you know what I'm talking about)...a small torch in the front on the right, a metal star in the front on the left and some cool metal chainy thing at the back on the left, which is very similar to the symbol of anarchy. I love all this stuff. I wonder why he needs that little torch (if that's what it is). ;D

It is indeed a small torch and he used it in Athens to find where the stage ends when he entered in a smokey heavy fog and during the foggy parts of the show :lol:

Sue someone who doesn't even exist? That, at least, would be breaking new ground.
