Secret Sisters gig in leeds, this Tuesday

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.

Well I hope you all have a really good time.

Honestly.

Not that I'm bitter or jealous or anything...

(Ungrits teeth)

You lucky, lucky bastards.

Horrah.

Though I'm sure it was fire rated for 300.

Good old Leeds and it's elastic walled venues

Do you really think they'll pull 300? :(

If so, it'd be a bastard to be 301 :P

Can't bring myself to wear my Leeds shirt for FFS Dave, so I'll just blend in with the assembled throng.

But I'll be watching... :wink:

Combining the capacity of the pub and the back room will give them certain flexibilty.

I don't know how many will show up.

Any other distinguishing features by which I can tell who you are...assuming you'll be hiding the neanderthal slouch. :lol: I'll be in a lovely yellow Sisters number, vacant expression, flowers in my hair... :lol:
There is increasing evidence to suggest that Chris may have been being sarcastic.

Oh man I can't believe I only just found out about this. I can't go either :( So gutted, especially as I missed them last time round due to being on the other side of the world, and the previous time due to having an emergency operation. Ar$e!
Hope everyone who goes has a top-tastic time, look forward to reading the reports.

I'm currently echoing SIP's sentiment.

I need to be cheered up and hugged. Where's Boudicca when you need her? :innocent:

horrendously bad timing all round - knew the european mainland gigs were out of the question months ago...somehow hoped i'ld be able to make the warm-up gig;especially since i found out before the weekend :evil:

oh well,consoling myself with the fact that i'm not the only one not going. and to all those who are there and won't read this till after the event: :notworthy: :notworthy: :notworthy: you lucky bleeders!

If I hadn't have spent what seems like the entire weekend on a train travelling in a triangle shape around the country then I would have probably managed to have made it! I just can't face getting onto another train for at least the next 4 weeks :wink:


How has this topic got so wide? :?

Keep your dreams.


But wouldn't it be wonderful (for us) if they were just a cover band?

We could blame Bush.


I'm sure it's already his fault for America being so far from Leeds, the over 18 policy, and difficult parents.


God, they're playing right now :cry:
