Ladies and gentlemen, it's time to start searching for some good old black clothes and happy memories...

"The Sisters of Mercy" are touring this summer in Europe. Allready two festivals are being sheduled with them as headliners. (Germany and Switserland)

For those who are going to see them in Switserland (28 June) and would be wondering if I am there too: you will recognise me very easily by the black pants, the black T-shirt and the grin on my face [Big Grin]

For those who don't know this band: shame on you !!!

For those who knew the band: they are playing a lot of new songs recently, so you might not recognise a lot of the songs. But they are alive and kicking, and the gigs are generally very good. Last few years, they've played some hilarious covers at the end of the concerts:
- confide in me (Kylie Minogue)
- I wanna be sedated (the Ramones)
- and my favorite : Sugar Baby Love [Big Grin]

If you have the opportunity to go and see them, you should. you won't regret it.

Looking for a black clad person at a Sisters gig? I'd prefer to look for a needle in a haystack! Enjoy yrself Wimm, they're a fine band! There's another '80's revival going on over here, with every band falling over themselves to sound like Visage and Gary Numan. It's like Techno never happened, but I love that sound to bits. Hooray for the '80's is what I say (except for all that rubbish pop rock music and the dodgy hairdo's and all that)!

Oh I'm so happy you're here to talk to Wimm! I'm afraid my tolerance had got a bit weakened by policing the music quizzes submitted, and I can normally take any subject or group but the recent submissions have been exceptionally difficult!

SFA, It's about time you came back to us!

Nice to be back, albeit in a more sporadic fashion than before! The work eventually sorted out internet access, so I shouldn't be a stranger!!
