[kj] OT: Sisters of Mercy, S.F. show

[ade]

Indeed - dull & oddly glam. Maybe it was the shiny salmon pink shirt
that I remember Eldritch wearing. Can't remember much now, but I'm
sure of this - I've seen 'em do better*10.

yeah, my main compliant about the Sisters is that the show came off real
cheesed out - glam hair metal. To me, the Sisters should be more moody
and atmospheric. Watching the guitarist in a bright neon green tank top
w/ his man boobs hanging out is not good times.

I knew going in to see them, there'd be a drum machine - he'll, I dont
even think the guitarist were playing the actual riffs of the songs,
just doing soloing type stuff over what was programmed. The problem is
that lack of a live rhythm section just flat out sounds bad.
