Flyer announcing The Sisters' support act with Altered Images

F Club, Brannigans, Leeds, England

Supposedly the third gig ever for The Sisters of Mercy in a cellar club in Leeds called Brannigans.
According to The Sisters' Official Gigography, the other band on that evening were Altered Images.

At that point of time, the "F Club" brand for events had already officially been renamed into "Fan Club", while "F Club" remained in full use by the public as it shows in the review below. For further information on the F-Club in general and in detail you may look here.

There is not much known about this gig, so any further information is very welcome. Thanks to spiggymr7, we can at least provide you with the Brannigans's flyer on the left, and the gig review below on the right side. Please click into these files for larger views. In addition, he provided a interview with The Sisters of Mercy taken by Leeds fanzine Whippings & Apologies shortly after the present gig - the first interview ever with The Sisters of Mercy. It can be viewed (and read) in this thread @The Heartland Forums, including some clarifying remarks and memories from one of the interviewers ...
