07 May 1981, University of York, York, England
The sixth known gig ever for The Sisters of Mercy ...
Alledgedl<, the performance was recorded and can be found on many Live Bootlegs like GOOD THINGS Plus 2 live songs, Monochrome, Brimstone & Treacle and Halloween's Day.
As a matter of fact, it is, however, more likely that the tracks on all the above mentioned bootlegs are taken from an early demo tape spread by the band for promotional purposes ...
Setlist
NOTE:
The Sisters of Mercy: LIFE book + 7" (or CD-single), published by Stampa Alternativa (Rome) around 1988
gives a different setlist which has often been quoted also on bootlegs. Unfortunately, that setlist has proved WRONG !!!.
It adds various tracks to the list that were NOT played on the day presented here. At the same time 1969 is omitted.
Where these tracks appear on bootlegs - and with a wrong reference to May 7th, 1983 - they are rather taken from an
early Sisters Demo Tape. We detail the wrong setlist here only in order to eventually end all rumours provided otherwise!
- The Damage Done
- Watch
- Teachers
