Mallemunt Festival Poster by Belgian Illustrator Ever Meulen
Tour Logo


Mallemunt Festival, Muntplein, Brussels, Belgium

NOTE:
There has been quite some confusion for decades over the correct date
of this performance:

gig of the Trans-Europe Excess Tour in 1983.
  • The Official Gigography and other sources detail, however, the 24th of August 1983
as the date of this gig.
  • The information about the live compilation bootleg The Acid Rain mentions
the same date, while its back cover merely states Brussels 8-83.
  • Another live bootleg titled Razorblades gives the 5th of August 1983 for the show.
These pictures as well are marked as of August 5, 1983.

Anyway, the festival poster here on the left, which was done by Belgian Illustrator Ever Meulen,
notes 28 Juli to 12 August as the festival period.

In addition, there is - eventually - the still video down on the right side which shows an announcement
of The Sisters of Mercy's concert during the festival and features a great recording of Anaconda.

This concert was recorded from the audience and is in circulation among the fanbase.
