    The Wannadies had a number of hits in the 90's, Hit been one of them.

    I was at the Kenickie "gig" in UCD as well. But I thought the three girls were a bit rough up close.

    Unlikely, not with all the Foster dollars hanging around. I'll be diplomatic and say we have a difference of opinion. I remember one of them had a pair of tight-leggings with a panther skin pattern. She was way too "round" to be wearing anything like that - and just the thought of it now sends a shiver down my spine.

    Singer would do for a handy one (t'would have to be handy mind ...I'm not runnin' for that bus). The bassist was kicked. Can't remember the other guitarist. Drummer was -a bloke.

    There version of 'Save All Your Kisses for Me' from a Eurovision p1sstake they did was second only to Shane McGowans reworking of 'What's Another Year' for sheer brilliance.

    Negative, I Can Only Disappoint You, She Makes My Nose Bleed, Closed For Business, Six. See loads. Their last album Little Kix was quite crap though.

    Rick Witter, ex-lead singer of Shed Seven, has just released his first album with his new band The Dukes, called "The Year of the Rat". I was at the first date on their promotional tour last night...and jolly good it was as well. Man, is he skinny...I'd say he'd give Mick Jagger a run for his money!

    Currently recording the follow up in the states. Gedge had a guitar for sale on e-bay recently actually. If I'd only had a spare 500 bucks.

    Disposable Heroes of Hipocrasy. No one I ever mention them to has ever heard of them (bar my brother coz we saw them at Feile one year!) so am always sayin...."thats Michael Franti, he used to be with DHofH" to which I get blank stares.

    Please tell me you remember them & they are not a figment of my imagination. Already doubting my sanity........

    Don't worry, Magicme, remember them quite well.
    Television (Drug Of The Nation) seemed to be a fixture in every hiphop mix I heard for many years. I liked that Famous And Dandy Just Like Amos And Andy too, and their version of The Dead Kennedys' California Uber Alles if I recall it rightly.
    I'll even go one better and remember Franti's first band The Beatnigs, I know they did Television first, but really only remember reading about them in the Melody Maker at the time.
