Dutch Soundcheck Emma 1983

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.

Sorry if I've been tardy or just unlucky but I've never seen this before. Is there more of the sound-check or even the concert? :)

Until a few years ago (when a shorter b&w clip appeared on youtube) only the lucky few have had that clip - and with the first minute missing, but yes, that clip turned up recently and it was longer and in colour! It was a nice surprise when it popped up on youtube!

Over the years some have cast doubt over the fact that clip was filmed at the Paradiso, Amsterdam as it is claimed, but in this new video in the opening 30 seconds you get a view of the venue's low ceiling. Maybe someone who is familiar with the Paradiso is able to confirm or deny whether the low ceiling in the start of the clip looks like the Paradiso or not?
