Tattooed Love Boys

...I'm guessing that I'm not the only one of the board who was into this band...Bleeding Heart And Needle Marks was never far from my stereo, and everyone at my school used to take the piss out of me for liking the 'Tattooed Lovely Boys'...I saw them live (I think in '89) when they were supported by Vamp...Garry bought me a drink before the show and I remember his perfume being quite overwhelming (!) Marc Ama Chan was in the band at this time, and I'd been in touch with hm for months by phone, so it was great to finally meet him...Everyone now seems to list Tattooed Love Boys as one of the worst bands ever! ...I think they were a lot of fun, some great catchy songs, and lovely guys with it..oh, and great perfume, too !

Where's Bingo to add his tuppence? [img]wink.gif[/img]

Yeah, I loved TLB. But once they added that Bassist "Dean" something or other, they really went downhill.

You know, I only stumbled across this message board by chance yesterday - and to see stuff about bands I loved back in the late eighties like Gunfire dance, Gin Sling, Tattooed Love Boys, Tigertailz, Soho Roses etc is just brilliant and makes me wanna go and find all their records again!..I have such brillliant memories of these bands....I remember seeing Dogs D'amour at the Astoria (1990?) with the Black Crowes supporting...me and my friends were queing up very early outside the venue and drinking vast quantities of Thunderbird wine - come the time to enter the venue we were all suitably trashed - my best mate was denied entry into the venue - I managed to get in (god knows how as I was totally trashed) - After the gig I was looking for my mate, and a security guard came over to me and told me that he was just around the corner sitting in a rubbish bin (!) - and there he was, totally off his face, two cowboy boots sticking out of this dustbin!!! Aaah, the memories I have of my encounters with Thunderbird wine!

Going back to the TLB's - does anyone know what happened to Marc? I'd loved to get in touch with him... And whats happened to Mick, Garry, Dariyus and Adam?

MMMmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm TLB's .. no comment really, was what seems like a lifetime ago .. thank God ! .. But your right about one thing, the smell of Garrys Hippy Piss/Petulia Oil still haunts me even today !! Way, WAY TOO MUCH .. lol

Hey thanks for that dude! Sorry i got you mixed up with Mick.. Sounds like you had fun in the TLB's..Not!! I heard that Mick was pretty difficult to work with.... I just want to get hold of the first TLB records and some of the early uk sleaze/glam stuff for a bit of a laugh and a trip down memory lane...!

Dariyus iz currently with Steevi Jaimz & Ace Finchum in their line up of Tigertailz

We should do a poll as to which is the better Tigertailz - the Pepsi/Jay/Kim one or the Steevi/Ace one!!!

Does anyone know of a website for the Steevi fronted Tigertailz?....I'd also like to know if 'Damned If I Do, Damned If I Dont' is worth buying...
