Overbombing Tour 1993
After the summer festivals in 1993, another tour followed in winter to promote the release
of the Under The Gun single and the release of The Sisters' second singles-compilation
A Slight Case Of Overbombing - Greatest Hits Vol. 1.
The German leg of this tour was promoted as a festival event called "Superbang '93",
which included, apart from The Sisters of Mercy, The Ramones as second headliner,
as well as Monster Magnet, Type-O-Negative and The Sisters' protégés La Costa Rasa.
as "special guests". None of these bands did play all the venues, though.
