Re: 2023-06-09. Fillmore Auditorium, Denver, CO

The support band was ok - kind of reminded me of mid-career Life of Agony. Ben came out and sang lead vocals for a single song towards the beginning of the set - I'm curious if he did this for any of the other dates. Anyway, he brought more energy than the rest of the band combined, and afterwards m...

How long after doors opened did the band come on? I looked through the US tour threads and didn't see anything on that.

I've always been a fan of the quieter sound. You can go home without your ears ringing, or you don't have to muffle the sound with plugs. End result is a much better sounding concert.

I always thought that Fools Gold by Ghost Dance sounds very much like a Sisters song. The guitar and bass seem very FALAA, and I can imagine Andrew's deep voice booming out the opening verse up until the refrain.

There have been a lot of reunions that I never thought would happen lately: Guns N Roses and The Misfits being key examples. While Andrew has expressed no interest in a reunion, the above bands have been in flat out war for decades. While Guns N Roses might be an understandable cash grab, never in a...

Wow, that is too cool. A Sisters song with live drums and a living bass player. It is also nice to hear the original guitar line much more in front of the mix, although too bad the camera man never cut over to Adrian Portas. As a Spear of Destiny fan I'd love to have heard Kirk Brandon doing the voc...

Seventh Seance

Does anybody else listen to Seventh Seance? I stumbled upon the band a few years back thanks to blogs like Cactus Mouth Informer and Phoenix Hairpins. I've been completely struck by them ever since, gathering everything that I can find. Unfortunately, there isn't too much out there available - the s...

I had to vote for Driven Like the Snow, as tempting as Bury Me Deep and Poison Door are.

I might give them all up for a performance of On the Wire with the guitar line from the studio version.

To those who were at the show, how long did it take for you to realize that they were playing Rain From Heaven? Did you have to wait for the vocal line to start, or were the guitars enough?

Well, can't include TSOM, as that would make up too much of the list. Probably not in too much of an order: 1. Spear of Destiny - Grapes of Warth - The intrumental at the end of the song is just amazing, and it changed constantly throughout the years. 1984 version with the piano is the best. 2. Thea...

Neverland demo for sure. Driven Like the Snow demo would be a contender, but the lyrics are too good to miss.

Giving Ground live may be better than the Sisterhood version.

Here's a video with a pretty good angle on Craig during a recent ToH concert. The sound sucks, but if you're familiar with the song, Craig does a pretty good job on the bass line.

All I'm trying to say is that in all likelihood no Sisters fan would give a flying f*ck about James Ray if it wasn't for his connection with the band.

You Could Be the One is without a doubt my least favorite.

Then 1969, but as someone stated above, it's just a cover.

Train follows a close third, I can't understand why this song gets so much recognition.

Everything else is gold.
