The Sisters had a fruitful collaboration with Jim Steinman, so maybe the analogy works?

I can imagine Andrew Eldritch singing "Some Velvet Morning" but only the Lee Hazlewood parts

Bought a ticket for a September show, hope this tour doesn't self-destruct before then.

Reviews of the show in SF last year were the worst things I’ve ever heard, good luck

Got tickets for Radio City but fully expecting it to be awful and just going for nostalgia’s sake. Last time I saw them was maybe 2006ish and it was already getting iffy.

they were pretty fun when I saw them last year but honestly you could have just shown up for the encore and gotten everything you needed (Lucretia/Temple/Corrosion)... this year they're playing Austin the same night as Johnny Marr/James... sorry Sisters!

What I heard from their "new" songs sounded pretty good - wish they could do a Peel session and just them get them quickly recorded

Reviews I read of last year’s shows said it was hard to hear Eldritch, which maybe isn’t a surprise. Even on the albums his vox are a little buried, and if he’s lost vocal strength that’ll make it worse. But I figure it’ll be fun just to watch him glower.

he actually reminded me of Mark E. Smith, pacing around on stage messing around with instruments
