The Sisters of Mercy - North American Tour 2024

https://www.ticketmaster.com/the-sisters-of-mercy-tickets/artist/1006740

Sisters Of Mercy was my first gig. Brixton, Christmas, 93.

I fucking love this band and their fucking music. You don't like them? FUCK YOU!

One thing I'm very aware of. Very aware for a long time. DON"T REVISIT THE PAST MOTHERFUCKER!! You have a good time somewhere, be very fucking wary of doing some rose-tinted, big fucking nostalgia trip. And going back again. DON'T FUCKING DO IT!!! Surrounded by washed out Goths. FUCK THAT.

So they haven't released any fucking music for about 25 years. Eldritch is now bald like me, and wears a baseball shirt, not like me. AND IS No longer the Goth Vampire Bat Man Of Yore. He says WE WANT A MILLION POUNDS to do a new album, about 10 years before the internet. Now there is the internet and that cunt could fucking EASY get a million for new album from fans if he posted up some proper sick demos for a studio recording. NOTHING! You bottled it mate. Bullshit talk. Some live tracks but who cares. We have you MILLION.

I love this band but I think Eldritch, though an incredibly smart and intelligent human being and being responsible for EASY FUCKING LEMON SQUEEZY some of the greatest music of his era. (Remember the simple and friction free transition from underground, lo fi, goth to the fucking BOMBASTIC masterpiece that is Floodland) YOU WASTED YOUR GIFT. Such a shame.

Now they are coming to NORTH America. Maybe you would like to see them. I get that. But I'd be wary. I've heard they fucking suck live. 

YOU SHOULD OF SEEN THEM IN 93.

Imagine my joy of finding a homemade recording of my first gig on YOUTUBe.

I saw them on the ‘91 Vision Thing tour, where they were with Public Enemy. The days when anyone could tour together, Flavor Flav showed up hours late, and crowd surfed from the back of the auditorium up to the front of the stage.
