10-12 September 2021 - Roundhouse, London, UK
Unfortunately, the second year of the corona pandemic again shattered all plans for a worldwide tour on the occasion of The Sisters of Mercy's 40th Stage Anniversary in 2021. On March 9th, 2021, eventually, some belated anniversary festivities were announced in the form of an extended three-gig weekend in London at the Roundhouse later on that year.
Some interviews with Andrew Eldritch and Ben Christo were conducted in the days before the gigs by Mark Andrews, who in this respect represented the online music mag Louder.
For each of the three days The Sisters of Mercy would bring a different support act with them.
The formerly introduced new songs of 2019 and 2020 were played every evening. Further details on setlists and the distribution of songs are here in the Statistics section.
Last but not least, the merchandise front also held quite some surprises arriving with fully new designs.
