August is only a month away! Who's going where?

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.

Tilburg and Lokeren for me!

For everyone: Do not forget the Lokeren one is ridiculously cheap! €10

So if you don't have to be elsewhere, be there! :P

Ditto ;D

Mind you - the UK dates will have to be pretty close to Newcastle 'cos I am seeing :von: in Tilburg with all me mates ;D
I never talk during music, at least during good music. If one hears bad music, it is one's duty to drown it in conversation.

I'm going to Tilburg, Lokeren and Hildesheim. Does anybody know if photocamera's are allowed in those places?

See you in the front rows!

I sure do hope cams are allowed, because most probably I can use an 8MP camera of a friend of mine, which would not be bad at all ;D ...

I think I'll give Tilburg and Lokeren a ring this week

as i've already posted, i'm going to the zurich date.
this will be the furthest i have been for a sisters gig, beating the trip to the alive festival at st vith in 2002.

this will be the 16th time i have seen the sisters in all (17 if you count eldritch with the utah saints in 1993).
the first time being wembley arena (those were the days!) on 24/11/90 and the last at the blank canvas leeds (how times have changed!) on 27/04/2003.
during this time i was lucky enough to be at the vanbrugh college 20th anniversary gig.

i bet there are a few heartlanders who can beat this though...(challange!!!) :lol:

<counts through his ticket stubs>

Tilburg will be my 20th Sisters gig spread over a number of years. For statistical purposes, I have included Stafford 81, eventhough I don't even remember seeing them there. :urff:

It's an age thing, I know. :roll:

I'm going to listen to a load of Sisters bootlegs that aren't in the Weeding section and I'm not gonna weed them cause I'm a miserable bastard. ;)

(I'll put them on SoulSeek once I get round to listening to them all)

i was looking at my ticket stubbs too!

as for the age thing, i was 13 when they played the royal albert hall concert and hadn't heard of them back then.
i didn't get into the sisters until 'this corrosion' - meaning i had about a 3 year wait for a gig!

Match my 'drag and pull' against your 'kicking and screaming', and there was only ever one outcome. 8)
