Is This The Best Sisters Video Ever?
i love these oldschool recordings...we're so lucky to have them
I thought something looked very odd about them in this clip, and then I realised that they weren't obscured by a cloud of dry ice
They are obscure in their own way. They don't look odd, but it is your opinion and that is ok
The only person to front a goth gig and wear a white top and still be dark as hell haha love you Andrew.
White is a gothic color
Sisters in 1983 were a rock n roll band. Nothing more. Nothing less. But a damn good one with hefty fuzzy bass lines. That clown Wayne brought all the goth, dry ice, cowboy hats. All theatrics. This is here is effin’ rock n’ roll.
He isn't, but he invented the genre. It is expected for him to be goth

First time with friends in Berlin. We went there without knowing them, only 15 years old ;-) to see the (semi-)famous Loft. But I was infected then - forever....

Fantastic Time in a Fantastic Club!.
I am 53 and my Music ist the Same we in Times to the Loft!!😁😌
Which part of West Berlin was The Loft situated?
@@migspit Hi @migspit!
The Loft was in the West Side of Berlin.
In "Schöneberg" near by the Subway Station "Nollendorfplatz"
@@christophmiessler5459 Thanks! I didn't know that. I am familiar with the area as I was a frequent traveller to Berlin pre pandemic.
@@migspit In the Same Bildung we the "Loft",was the "Metropol".It was a big Disco and a Concertroom for 2000 thousand people.I have seen "Einstürzende Neubauten" in the Metropol,there was 2500 people in it.500 over Stop.It was so hot and sweatie .They played His Album"Halber Mensch" ,It was in 1984.Many people collapsed by the Concert.The Cult,Stray Cats,The Cramps,New Model Army,Iggy Pop and many more.Good Times!!
Ist's nice your interessed in music Clubs from earlier.Happy greetings from Berlin,Christoph
@@christophmiessler5459 Thanks for the info Christoph much appreciated, I would've loved to have seen a band there,, Happy greetings from Manchester - stay safe
Build me a time machine. I want to be there.
Me too !
Me 2
Easily the best sisters video ever made. Love the 83 gigs, great quality.
Brilliant stuff, the longest ever lasting cigarette too, things were better in the 80's
Brilliant.. reminds me of times i saw them back then
Brings me right back....thanks travis. (feel 18 again)
This makes me sad i miss this music😢
i know the feeling brother
This was the band that changed everything for me. The latest version is basically a tribute act that some dude bought off AliExpress. Very sad.
Poetry in motion
12:43 someone throws a fish?
Good old time,thank you..
Genialidad de grabacionnnntesoro indiscutible 🕶️🕶️🕶️🕶️🕶️😉💪😎😎😎
how can a vhs from 83 be so superior sounding to them in person in 2000-2020?
Because the entire band left except the lead singer. That's why.
The Sisters were secretly replaced by a parody tribute band after the First Last Always album, little known fact. Eldritch got speed induced stage fright permanently and refused to play live after that. He later developed a similar phobia to recording studios.
@@Mr.Swankly lawyers will do that
@@Mr.Swankly your completely right. Andrew Eldritch is dead. Today another person performs as Eldritch on stage. I asked Rodney Orpheus, a freind of Eldo, bout that and he said yes that is completely true
@@ellaschroeder1617 haha, so true! saw them in 2017 - what a horror show...
I was ther . . great Konzert ...in Berlin
I am a massive Sisters fan...for some reason Eldritch here reminds me of Michael Jackson....hair, thin body and dark sunglasses
Michael who?
agree :D but this MJ look came after ;)
More of a wanna be Peter Murphy. He's trying too hard. The whole thing is to ignore the existence of the audience, while knowing they are there.
haha thinking the same thing here, very striking and undeniable 😆
Actually Michael Jackson reinvent Andrew’s image. The hilarious Dr. Jeep where no one is really playing their instruments is Andrew reinventing MJ’s image along with Roy Orbison.
its interesting to see the rough edges and where they came from
Amazing quality! I love it!
Spiggy was neve the most rotund of fellas, but sheeeeiiittt ; In this it looks like someone's just plonked a pair of shades, a wig and a blouse on a skeleton. Makes the Albert hall 85 Eldritch look like John Belushi.
I was thinking "thank goodness I'm not that thin." Whatever happened to Salvation, I wonder; move to 'merica?
semitelfeletem Weren't we all that thin til age 30? Eldtritch once said that the black clothes were left over from his university days as they were everyday functional. The meaning being due to poverty rarely washed the clothes. I spent ages 23 to 30 as a "goth" even though the scene had died in 1994 when it had a boost from The Crow movie. The Sisters had a great 11 year run from 1983-1994. I realise Eldtritch still yours but friends who have seen the post-Vision thing band claim that he is joke and sounds like a 3rd rate garage band. Check out the 1993 Enjoy the Puppet show concert when they supported Depeche Mode. This was Eldtritch's downfall even though he denies it. The two massive Mode albums - Violator and Songs of Faith and Devotion - were superior albums to Floodland and the woeful Vision Thing.
Frosted Depeche Mode are garbage, give your head a shake. Floodland was a great album, though I concede Vision Thing was below par. I was a goth in the mid eighties and Depeche Mode weren't on the map in the alternative scene. This Sisters were great up until Floodland, his downfall was letting Craig Adams walk away, taking his obvious song craft with him.
The Sisters run ended in 1983 a few months after this. Wayne joined soon after Ben left. A little less than two years later from this it was only Andrew and never really sounded this tough ever again. He went where the money followed him. He’s still a cunny funt with great humor. Glad he still gots that.
yes i have to agree, it was never really the same after Ben was replaced. sound changed and lost it's bite. @@rodders215
thank you so much for uploading!
Perfect!
great videoquality indeed! thnx again!!
I bet the entire band in here do not weigh more than I do ( and I´m not even exactly your Classic McFatso )
Pre-Wayne Hussey, good stuff
the best stuff
No, sorry. Wayne was an excellent guitarist and I think the 12 string electric did more to nail that quintessential Sisters’ sound than even the good Dr. did.
Fuck sake a lot of sisters fans spend more time bitching about the band than actually supporting them.
He was so hot !
Claudia So extremely thin
Great to see this gig! Ive got it since long back on a quite bad copy on VHS. I will upload other Sisters stuff that might not be up here at all, or atleast that I got a better copy of :)
If you're interested in trading get in touch email or message me
I did that during the 90's, but not any more, but thanks for the offer :)
Rolling Rockvideos do you have any Sisters pre 85 that is not on TH-cam?
Not that I could find when checking my old lists of tapes. But the Glasgow gig 1983 gig, that you upload, is listed as 59 minutes and your was 51 minutes. I can't guarantee that I got it right, but I will check it out when I gets to it. But that will take a while with all my tapes.
Rolling Rockvideos That's interesting as my video is not the complete show I'm always looking for unknown or upgrades of Sisters shows
Thanks for sharing
SO coooool !
whoah, i hadnt realized such early Sisters gigs had survived on video. it's great to see the original line up again as they were before Ben left and the dry ice took over. the only true sisters line up, and it brings back sweet memories of 82-83

what drugs can do to a man... turn him into a Michael Jackson lookalike! LOL! Love the Sisters! :)

All of it.
Enough to match Bowie’s 75’ Young Americans / Soul Man coke addiction
Por ésto lo sigo adorando
🔥🔥🔥👌🌹🌟🌟🇪🇦
Brillante Andrew...!!! Te quiero 🌹✨✨👄
No me hago cruces ,lo que estoy oyendo . Mega 10 .
9:34 'this is my manager' to the punk kid 😂
So lucky to have this. Where on earth did you get it from? Yeah
That's an interesting question.... Would you happen to know more?
@@TravisBickle1963 So pray tell….
I’ve been there ..was good
From when The Sisters were bastard groovy.
IS Wayne Hussey playin´ here? I see there are 2 guitarists.
No. Ben Gunn and Gary Marx on Guitar, Wayne Hussey replaced then Ben Gunn.

my Entrance.
Cooles Video👌, As actors, what do you think of Robert Downey junior and Robert de Niro?
are you talkin to me? :)))
🔥🔥🔥
Drugs drugs drugs ...awesome
I always wonder how a singer feels when the crowd and building is as bare and stale as the one in this video.
Better than playing in a fancy bar or club with no one paying attention. All eyes were on them at least.
Andrew owns everyone in that crowd. They are all feeling Body Electric and Floorshow. No smoke, no theatrics, barely any lights, and no cowboy hat. Just bad ass bass lines and and killed guitars. Fookin’ R’N’R. Best era the TSOM.

Is that Wayne and Adam also? That's not Wayne....Damn!! Andrew was always a rock star
Craig Adams on bass, but that doesn't look like Wayne on guitar, I think it's Ben Gunn and Gary Marx.
Yep, left to right on stage is Gary Marx, Craig Adams, Andrew Eldritch, Ben Gunn.
Is that Steward Copeland on guitar?
Is that the city of Berlin or some English club named Loft Berlin?
The City Of Berlin

Andrew’s twitching would give Ian Curtis a run for his money. As lame as Vision Thing may be, the live shows from that era revealed a far more impressive lead performance. He’s since resigned himself to just pacing back and forth behind his two Adonis-like guitarists (or, in some cases, the one 21 Jumpstreet looking guy and a girl who is the worst guitar mime ever!) that eclipse him and often drown out his very diminished vocal performances these days.
pero que voz mas mala , por no decir patetico , este tipo jamas ha cantado bien por lo q veo
@gothic girl profunda y grave se nota las veces q le viste actuar en directo , y envidia puedo tener de todo el mundo recorrido que tiene .
