No support act and we got an hour and 25 minutes worth for our money. On top of that they just weren't very good. Terrible sound. I couldn't see shit (despite my small stature it isn't usually a problem) and they sounded more like a Metal band with bad vocals than the atmospheric Goth sound they are known for. Shame.
congrats on the new job!

a few years ago when i still lived in Seattle....Sisters of Mercy played....i had tickets and looked forward to the show but was in the hospital....a good friend went and she basically described as you did except she added that all they did was complain about not being able to smoke inside

i have to admit....i think i'd still go see them if the chance came
