Band/Line-up
- Andrew Eldritch - vocals
- Gary Marx - guitars
- Dave Humphrey - 2nd guitar

- Doktor Avalanche - drums
Allegedly, 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 more likely though, that part of the tracks on all the above mentioned bootlegs
were taken from The Sisters' demo tape spread by the band for promotional purposes ...
Setlist
- order not confirmed and possibly incomplete -
- The Damage Done
- Watch

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
The Sisters' Demo Tape. We detail the wrong setlist here only in order to eventually end all rumours provided otherwise!
- The Damage Done
- Watch
- Teachers
- Adrenochrome
- Sister Ray
