No Hit Wonders - Still Unsigned...

[Tim73]

Sometimes this forum really blows my mind like a cyber - Intreprid Fox or something!?! I keep recognising familar names from the old days & wonder who was part of the old toilet circuit of the late 80s / early to mid 90s?

I recognise Lee from the fabulous Assasination Bureau but it looks like Hud from Kiss The Bride (never met but liked what I heard) & some guy from Rich Rags (ditto) are lurking too. Not to mention Paradise Alley's very own Stan Laurel (I assume Adam was Hardy?) Darryl Wilks...

I played bass with SkinTrade & went on to form (less glammy, more pop-punky) Ex-Boyfriends with Andy Town (ex-Dogsbody). I quit playing in '99 before getting back into it these days now that I have sensible job / mortgage / marriage...

Who else is hiding away on this forum? What band(s) were you in / 'zine did you run & what you up to now? (I thought it'd save hi-jacking another bands forum!) Also do we know where any others are who haven't ventured onto this forum?

Think what Tim's really asking is this: do Blue Blud ever visit the site? Robodave in particular.

Whereas I can't help you with that, I have seen posts from Steve Vincent deep in the bowels of the board but they're all pretty old. Mark from Love Like Us has been known to pass through but I'll need to give him a nudge as he hasn't posted in ages. Messages on behalf of Drugdealer Cheerleader and their ex-Waterbratz contingent go up occasionally but I don't think either Ringo or Hilda are behind them. Buttz & Paul Blittz are regulars, but they're practically royalty in these parts.

Robodave? I hear he's mostly machine these days! Oh wait, that was Darth Vader....

Hey Tim
Welcome to the board!
Get yourself on the map. Check it out at the top of the board.

Marshy from Tattoed Love Boys drops in here although he is busy currently.
Rocky from Wrathchild drops by to read stuff but has yet to post anything. There are various Rich Rags guys who post also. And a couple of Teenage Idols (Danielz I think) who used to post.

Darren, Ratarsed on bass more like.

Ja ja. You're just jealous because we were better
than you, that's all. Although, the last time we
supported Tigertailz at Rioz was a bit of a
'let's just stumble on and get this over with
ASAP' affair. (We stopped off at Aldi's en route
and bought a gallon of scotch for 30p, or something.)

And then there was the time (Bogiez) we were so
pissed pre-gig we didn't even recognise our intro
tape playing. And that other time, in Boston ---

Alright, ratarsed on bass.

Happy days.

D.

I reckon there is more than enough material for a "tails from the road" thread. The IH lawnmower incident belongs in folklore! [img]smile.gif[/img]

I just don't know how much of it I would believe! [img]wink.gif[/img]

I assure you that the lawnmower story was completely true.. and it was edited somewhat for the sake of decency.

I've mowed a few lawns in my time, nothing like a freshly mowed lawn
