- Saturday 5th July 2014 -
Quote from Sonisphere's News Announcement Page No. 4:
One band that know all about Sonisphere are The Sisters Of Mercy. At Sonisphere UK 2011
they made their first festival performance in 20 years. Three years later they’re back.
“We had such a good time playing Sonisphere in 2011 (for the Sisters’ first UK festival in 20 years)
that we’re coming back, to celebrate 40 years of gigs at Knebworth. Christ, that’s even older than us.
We’re looking forward to seeing you all (even though you might not see us).”
