Dom Sportova, Zagreb, Croatia
The first concert in Europe during The Sisters' Tour Thing I in 1990,
promoting the release of Vision Thing in South America and Europe.
That year had, however, also seen the Speed Kings play two shows
in Ireland and Cork in preparation of the tour after some five years
without any live performances except for various TV appearances .
The Dom Sportova has a capacity of about 3,500 standing and according to reports from the fanbase the
venue was fully crowded. Also during most of the show, there were firecrackers thrown onto the stage.
By the time The Sisters of Mercy had finished This Corrosion, there were so many firecrackers thrown
that they had to briefly pause the gig ...
A recording from this concert has so far not surfaced. Relatively recently, a short live audio appeared,
claiming to be backgrounding an Iggy Pop / The Sisters of Mercy - tribute video on YouTube ...
