I've spent quite some time trying to explain what the Sisters shows were like to people with confused response."So you can't see the band? Ok.. "

Can anyone recommend what they see as the best exemplar of the can't see the band lights in smoke full on experience show as described on the homepage to help me enlighten these people please? Forum 2003 is where I am at the moment.

With particular reference to a friend who's into lighting who's been reading this https://www.the-sisters-of-mercy.com/te ... ghting.htm

Thanks.

I think this sits better in Sisters Chat than Sharing.
Plus more people will see it :)

Following also out of interest, be good to have some cast-iron, utterly imperceptible examples to see.

Nottingham 2006 was pretty foggy as I recall. There is a poor DVD bootleg of it so it might be on Youtube

Wall of fog - Forum 2000 or Astoria 2006. Beautifully illuminated wall of fog - Suikerrock 2008, Hamburg 2009 and London 2009.

Also, Radio City 91 is prolly my favourite capturing of the Tour Thing-era lightshow :notworthy:

If Elon Musk ever implants a neuralink in my head that retrieves memories, the view from top row dead centre back of the arena seats at the NEC in 1992 would provide the perfect record :von:

The Blank Canvas Leeds, Smoke & Mirrors Tour 2003. The Sunday night was pretty tame (apparently -seemed normal to me ) as the previous nights smoke on the Saturday had set off every fire alarm, led to the opening of every possible exit & caused mild asphyxiation of several audience memebers. Did exactly what it said on the tin. :von:
