Can't Cope

Does exactly what it says on the tin. Some of the nonsense contained herein may be very loosely related to The Sisters of Mercy, but I wouldn't bet your PayPal account on it. In keeping with the internet's general theme nothing written here should be taken as Gospel: over three quarters of it is utter gibberish, and most of the forum's denizens haven't spoken to another human being face-to-face for decades. Don't worry your pretty little heads about it. Above all else, remember this: You don't have to stay forever. I will understand.

Am more than giddy now....a fist full of hours before I troddle off over to Liverpool to see him. Not seen him since 1996 and I dooooooo miss him. It's a full on electric gig tonight and seeing as it's about 25 years since the release of Teardrop Explodes 'Sleeping Gas' I'm hoping there'll be more than a few golden oldies.

I know of a few friends going, anyone on here?

JC is from Tamworth, anyway and IMO he lost the plot after 'Upwards At 45 Degrees' the rest of Jehoval Kill, and everything after was dull.
Where is my new Kilimanjaro? my most very fave.

So how was he, Debaser?

Well, he was obviously fantastic, but just HOW fantastic?

How would you rate him on a scale of 1 - 10?
1 = My Nation underground
10 = Jehovahkill

Wish I had known about this. I've obviously not been checking headheritage regularly enough.
Glad to hear he was on top form.
Copey we salute you. :notworthy:

By the way, has anyone read his autobiographies?

I'm sure he was fab (I'm not sure about his beard, though - he looks like a big issue seller), but I'd have been dissapointed wiv that setlist - not enough oldies!

Where's Jellypop Perky Jean?
and Sunspots?
and Upwards at 45 degrees?
and Beautiful Love?
