Anybody else like them? First time I heard 'I believe In A Thing Called Love' I thought it was toss but it has severely grown on me. The band have grown on me too, particyularly since finding out lead singer Justin Hawkins & lead guitarist brother Dan are big Brian May fans. Anybody else?

yep, I saw them in norwich on monday. they rocked large.

here's a tip btw, do not underestimate the pulling power of pink velvet lepoardprint trousers..

woo! 250 posts and "senior builder"!

that's a laugh, only thing I've built so far is a workbench and a pile of sierra parts/rust.

You pulled?


blueshift - 21/10/03 at 04:38 PM

No. partly cos nim and folks were there so I didn't pursue.. but there was distinct evidence of power

They say they've been together 3 and a half years. They must be about 25, so they would have started at infant school!

They do, however, rock!

Well in that case I must have seen a different band 7 years ago who had been together 20 years!!
Apologies to The Darkness

Yes they rock!!

I saw em last year supporting The Wildhearts, purely by accident. I'd heard them on XFM once or twice though. Really cool entertaining band. I liked em before they were famous

ph34r the power of the pink pants!

Odd - never heard of them before this, then last night they got a very good half-page review in London's Evening Standard, and another good half-page in today's Telegraph.

Both reviewers thought they were hugely entertaining.
