I know them. Nice boys. One of them lives in my house, in fact. But don't ask me for any 'inside dirt', as he speaks mainly Portuguese.

I should make clear that it's not the 'hell house' I've previously mentioned. Got out of there months ago, thank christ.

Saw them at the HQ and I was pleasantly surprised...its hard to be churlish about their inoriginality when they (and the crowd) seemed to be having such a good time - dunno about Iggy tho' - it's Sham 69 they always remind me of. - They played for too long for me as well - nearly 2 hours as a japanese girl once said to me, "punk rockers' gigs and hair should be short"

They were great at Reading, maybe because they were only allowed a half-hour set. Really cool guys as well, the singer Alfonso brought us to some cheesy London club that had 90p drinks... off Oxford Rd. somewhere?
