RE: A Shirt on Sunday: Sisters of Mercy - 20/09/19 - Roundhouse
His vocals are a bit ropey on that live video. He was an iconic figure in the 80s. I remember him being mentioned all the time in Sounds back then.
When I lived in Germany I used to visit a club called Crash in Freiburg where all the various 'outcasts' hung out. I did not really fit in, but it was fun seeing the punks, rockabilly types and the goths. When some Sisters of Mercy came on the goths would take to the floor and sway menacingly. It was a sight to see.
I live the recordings and I know that not all bands cut it live, but it's a shame. I didn't know you had a secret German underground phase!

Surprised I haven't told you about my years in Germany after uni. Went to a lot of small gigs. Best known act would be Wilco Johnson.
