This was the first gig since 1991 to open with First and Last and Always. This song was the standard opener of shows up until the 1992 summer tour when the place was taken by More, Comfortably Numb, Ribbons, Kiss the Carpet and -- just once, in Philadelphia -- Vision Thing. First and Last and Always was returned to standard opener position next year in Event Horizon tour (1998).
Some people list this gig as Vienna -- Wiesen is very close to the capital, and thus the location was sometimes incorrectly attributed to the bigger city.

WOW! Kewl! It was really awesome! Andrew entered the stage during the
continuing beats of Afterhours greeting us with "Schoenen Guten
Abend" and immediately they began to play First And Last And Always.
He also announced that "We are THE Sisters Of Mercy" and the
complete gig was absolutely brilliant! It was even much better than
Ochtrup 96,
the Sisters played PERFECTLY well and Mr.Eldritch & Mr.Pearson looked
perfect either (this was at least my girlfriend's opinion).
During the last encores there were some stupid people
screaming for
Marian and Amphetamine Logic (!) and before the
gig I shocked some others announcing that Eldritch has bleached his hair...

Wiesen was not so hard to find thanks
to Pete's map, but I did not think they were at their best there at
all. The first half just didn't Gel. However the second half was
pretty good. I was just dead tired by that point so went and stood
at the back and watched the pretty lights (nice one Nigel).
