There were some bands from the Houston/Dallas area that I thought blew away some of the signed bands. Those would be the Houston based LOVE SURVIVAL & DRIVE...and the great Dallas based band BANG BANG...who later changed their name to MIND, BODY & SOUL.

Only two from my area that I can think of:
The Orphan Punks
The Chamber Strings
Everything else in this area has been pretty much shit.
It's quite sad to think about how Enuff Z'Nuff
failed whilst we've endeared eons and eons of
the Gallager brothers' tabloid-life bollox. Maybe
Chip and co. should have been in the papers more?

They never failed in my opinion, great sound great songs and none too shabby live, still listen to them loads
Same here, I loved em, Oasis never did it for me
I mean 'failed' as in failed to achieve the
success they deserved. Donnie's drug dabbles
haven't helped, of course.

Yep I know what you meant D but success and failure can be judged in many ways, maybe it was down to shit management I'm not sure but they are blasting out of my speakers as I type this
Relative values are a tricky thing to calculate.
Look at Dan Reed Network - kaput because all
the record label's distribution money went to
other bands. Guns N'Roses - kaput because all the
record label's money was squandered on them and
they pissed it all away on drugs and vodka.
Rich Rags - kaput because...a dodgy amp at Ritzy's,
wasn't it Ian? [img]wink.gif[/img]

The biggest anti climax of my entire life, apart from meeting JB.
So my man of the month trophy was just a sham, this is probably the most hurt I've felt in years, walks away head bowed
