Heartland

Not sure that there's anything in there that is breaking news (some of the ticket sales stats perhaps), and it may have done the rounds already, but all the same https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rsBF3hm ... WL&index=1

Thank you. For no reason in particular I’ve been pretty absent from Heartland for the last 18 months. Since the turn of the year I’ve been catching up on all the posts I’ve missed. I won’t let things slip again

I see Amazon have this on pre-order now, release date 28th October this year. :von: :von: :von: On Amazon for only £16. :evil: Must admit to finding that a little galling, as someone who pledged whenever it was (best part of two years ago). I just want to read the actual book - I don't need my name...

There's a nice two page spread including an interview with Chris in this month's Classic Rock magazine (the one with Led Zeppelin on the front)... If any one can remind me in real layman's terms how to upload a picture on here, I'll post a picture of the interview now the magazine has moved on an i...

I'm very late seeing this news, but I'm very sorry to read it. He always came across as a real nice guy on the forum, I never met him in person, but I'm sure I would have liked him if I did.
RIP Sam.

Drifting back into more savoury matters, anyone ever read 'Not on the Voyage' (the book Eldritch enjoyed)?

Was sorry to see him go. They were due to go out on a farewell tour which got postponed due to COVID-19. Struggle to see how that will happen now, all due to respect to the other members, it's just JJ left from the classic line-up. I wonder if a one-off tribute to Dave show (with Jet Black in attend...

Apologies if posted elsewhere.

Does Chris still belong in Sisters Chat or is he for the Where Are They Now Section? :innocent: Either way, this is a great 90 minute interview, https://anchor.fm/TheMomentOfProust/episodes/Episode-Two---Chris-Catalyst-ed5ltv . He goes into a fair amount of detail about why he left The Sisters, his ...

Ditto. I guess prices are set already, but I was surprised at the leap in price.

Also on the main board, but just in case, this one has been and gone but still seems worth sharing https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Sisters-Of-Mercy-VERY-RARE-signed-test-pressing-of-Reptile-House-12-034-vinyl-EP-/133367566956?fbclid=IwAR3VDMyfDcdD37cWlKS3zWht_Iq7WhxBQgdfiF6CJqh5Pgo-gjbB4bj6XPQ&nma=tr...

Apologies if this has been and gone, chaotic here with two small children under lockdown. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Sisters-Of-Mercy-VERY-RARE-signed-test-pressing-of-Reptile-House-12-034-vinyl-EP-/133367566956?fbclid=IwAR3VDMyfDcdD37cWlKS3zWht_Iq7WhxBQgdfiF6CJqh5Pgo-gjbB4bj6XPQ&nma=true&si...

Belated thanks for the wishes. It was a really good birthday. Took my two infant daughters to The Clash exhibition at the Museum of London. The youngest one was completely taken in by Simonen's bass smashing. She's only three, but good to know she's already learning how to break an instrument. Anywa...

So what's the official count for Eldritch? I counted 760 in the Wiki. But there was show in Athens(?) that he didn't come out for the encore, and all the times that 'Top Nite Out/Snub Nose' or 'Pipeline' get played in the live set and the lazy sod isn't on the stage. So he should be docked accordin...

Happy birthday to the man who is indirectly responsible for my mild interest in the history of The Sisters turning into the at times near obsessional quest for more knowledge.

Never met you, but always grateful for you getting this place up and running.

For some strange reason unknown to myself and not really compatible with the life I'd need, either, I do enjoy stats, Mothra .... :lol: ... so thank you for your calculations ... :D ... any further feeds are welcome ... :D ... You asked for it! The following is all based on the info I could glean f...

Don't think I realised how few shows Chris had done before Adam left/Ben joined. And how much longer some of the recent tours had been than I remembered at the time. There was only the 2005 Europe tour (and its accompanying Near Meth gig) where Adam and Chris were in the band together wasn't it? Th...

not really that surprsing a stat if you take into account the fact that Ben is now the longest serving band member after Eldrithch. he's been guitarist for 14 years now as opposed to Chris's 13. :von: Don't think I realised how few shows Chris had done before Adam left/Ben joined. And how much long...

I'm leaving my job soon, so find myself with less and less to do between 9am and 5pm. Today's effort to give the illusion I was working was to find out who (other than Von and the Doctor) has played the most gigs under the Sisters/Near Meth Experience/Speed Kings name. I was quite surprised at the o...

I very much doubt there will be a tour after Peter's heart attack. He'll be taking it much more easily from now on if he knows what's good for him and I'm sure he does. A new album though, if these dates go well and the chemistry is good...who knows? Anyone know why they split up after Go Away Whit...

Superb show last night. I really loved it. So much better than the last time in Paradiso. Great set, great versions of the songs, great atmosphere, stunning lightshow and finally less smoke. :) Dylan's height, hair and and cut off shirt look make me think Chris Holmes from W.A.S.P (I really like W....

Did that help?

I think so, but as I've just had my third coffee of the morning, my heart's beating like a f*cked clock anyway.

Thanks though, when the caffeine wears off, hopefully a beautiful calm will settle over me.
