You can make that two people if I can twist my father's arm further
Not that I bothered learning any of it past the intro  |

You can have it now:
Having been drinking since 2pm, by the time the band came on, we couldn't give a sh!t whether we could see or hear them anyway. |
Haha great! Just steal/take a setlist then, ok? That's the only thing of importance, not your hazy memories from the bottom of your glass.

Quite. Must have been a different gig from what I remember.
Anyway, hope to see you all there - I'll be the Grant Mitchell lookalike hanging around with Lex.
Maybe even in a Leeds shirt, just for you FFS |

RicheyJames and I got there at about 2pm in 1997 and it was empty but cannot remember much more than that although that did guarantee us tickets from a barman. Everyone else started turing up in numbers after 5pm and most still got in. Anyway I'll be there for early tomorrow.

Dad's seriously considering letting me go if I can work out how to get there and back. Any others taking the Transpennine Express tomorrow?
Looks like it's going to be a long day of train rides  |

Bugger, the dream has been smashed.
I conveniently neglected the fact that I have two parents and that my Mother is not so easygoing  |

Would you let your 16 year old travel 100 miles to see a gig from which would see him return to Liverpool some time in the early hours?
As disappointing as it is, I have to remember that they are taking me to Tilburg and there is something of a rationale behind the maternal objection.
Looks like my inner Paranoid beat up the inner Goth |

If it's any consolation...
After discovering the Sisters aged 15 (in 1985) I then found out the bastards had effectively split up only months before. Then they kept me waiting until November 1990 - a full five years later - until they played at Wembley Arena where I first actually saw them.
And I had to sleep on Paddington Station overnight after the gig, fending off the unwanted attentions of a number of dirty old men.

I've yet to ask my parents.
Maybe I could catch a train up to Leeds, see the gig and comeback. If my parents ask me where I've been I can just say I was out getting the paper.
It worked before... kinda. |

Well if you do use it, make sure you don't come home drunk.
I could catch a train up there, but if I can't find a place to stay overnight my mum will defiantly say no. |

Time off agreed by my boss. After much p!ss-taking.
I think I'll wear my PRWY T-shirt. Or maybe the 16-2-91 one.
I'll be the one in black (I can't believe no-one's done that yet)
Looking forward to meeting those of you I haven't already met.

Confirmed.
I'll be in my lovely Overbombing shirt, methinks. Black, definitely - well said MF. Quietly, ravingly, excited.

Thanks Quiff Boy.
I am so looking forward to this.
I haven't seen The Sisters since first Wembley gig in 1990.
