I’m about 90% up for an Australian adventure this tour. (I’m avoiding Europe right now.) If I can convince scardwell to meet me there, it’s on! 😉

I’m seriously thinking of doing these dates as well. 😁

Do it! I thought the travel would be brutal, but there are reasonable non-stops offered. So much for my idea of stopping in South America for a shamanic ayahuasca thing... There must be some aboriginal ceremony we can ignorantly gentrify?

Flights were not as expensive as I thought. Internal flights in Oz are dirt cheap. Need to check about holidays at work but yes I am interested if others are going.

I guess it will be nearly lunchtime or breakfast for the lazy ones in Europe when it’s showtime later. Oh and it’s nearly 30 degrees here so it could be a hot and sweaty one. Will try to report it I can later.

The weather here is ... sunny, but rather cold. I like that sort of fresh air, though... :) ...

From a couple of photos Chaotican posted in fb this place seems good! :notworthy:

Me ex flatmate's there and kept me up to date. Great gig apparently. Could be something to do with a particular attraction to Ben however!

The Sisters of Mercy have tonight restored my faith in The Sisters of Mercy. That is to say the show was a damn sight better than the Soundwave shemozzle experienced in Briswegia some years ago. No hi-viz to be seen! #andreweldritch #grumpyyorkshirebastard 😂

There wasn't too much use of the smoke machine at the Sisters of Mercy gig. Not!

The Sisters of Mercy performed on Melbourne tonight. You could hear them this time! But you couldn't see Andrew Eldritch. You can never see Andrew Eldritch; like the images in Plato's cave, you can only see the shadow.
