Saw the Sisters of Mercy last night

And let me tell you, it was absolutely sick. I got the barrier since I've been at the venue (Rockhal in Esch-sur-Alzette) since 2:30pm, the doors opened a little before 8pm. The support act, The Virginmarys, were sure not goth at all but still very good (I talked to them a little bit after at their merch booth and they were really nice guys, they even signed my CD), I listened to their albums beforehand and loved them, especially King of Conflict, so I was really excited to see them too. And then the Sisters of Mercy came on stage. Andrew didn't just stay static in front of the mic stand, he took the mic and went around on stage, doing little dances and robot-like moves. It was my first goth concert so I was really, really excited for it. And also, something incredible happened. At a moment, Ben Christo was playing in front of me, we had our hands raised, like a lot of people do at concerts, and… he handed me his guitar pick. I'm still so shocked. It's the first time I ever got a guitar pick from a concert, so it made my little black heart so, so happy. I'll cherish this pick and this moment forever. To sum it up, this was an incredible experience for me, and an absolute honor to see a living legend live.
