They had two bass players I think?
Oh those where the the days.
Stripy t-shirt and para boots.
Just got tickets to see Jesus Jones, Wonderstuff and PWEI on the same bill.
Doesn't Mr Jesus Jones do a bit of mtb journalism now.
surely the covers of Shake n Vac etc were the legendary Snuff. Loved them, still do actually. Their I can see clearly now is top banana.
All those bands were a lot better in my head until I listened to them again recently on Spotify!
I saw Loop, World Domination Enterprises and Godflesh on my 21st birthday, apparently.
Blimey, I remember Neds Atomic Dustbin... I thought they were fab at the time - with the benefit of hindsight they were pants!
Named after an episode of the Goon Show, doncha know?

Not as far as I know. Last heard of planning a December tour with The Wonder Stuff and PWEI.
Perhaps you were confusing him with Mike Davis? He of "Ballistic Squirrel" fame... 😉
I thought they were fun. Played at Uni when I was "studying" there.
oooooo NEDS such a flash back, was listening to curve today...and lush.
Neds, Carter and Cud were playing in London on Saturday night.
Oooh..Sultans of Ping FC "Where's Me Jumpah"
Seen them do that live a few times.
Put in on the playlist for my mate's wedding to a German girl last year. I'm not sure the Germans knew what the fleck was going on when the chorus started. 😆
Saw Lawnmower Deth in the tent at Download this year! They are... older. Good fun though, very relaxed on stage.
Has nobody mentioned Fuzzbox yet? They went back to punk roots - they couldn't play intruments for &*^*^. Saw them a couple of times.
At Uni one of my mates knew PWEI and we went to all their gigs when they were in town. Who would have thought that one of them would go on to win an Oscar for a film soundtrack!

Ride
...and Curve were never part of the Neds, Carter, CUD, Stuffies crowd, none of which I ever liked. Saw Lush a bunch of times, best gig was at Moles, in Bath, where the stage was only about 6" high. I was stood on front of Emma, and had to keep leaning back, because she was moving, swinging her bass from side to side, and if I hadn't moved back, I'd have got a Fender headstock smacking me in the nose! Curve were brilliant live, bloody loud, and pretty aggressive, and should have been massive. I'd love to see them reform and tour again. Pretty influential, too, I keep hearing newer bands with hints of Curve about them; early Asobi Seksu, in particular.
6Music played the Sultans of Ping's 'Where's Me Jumper' only last week, haven't heard that in years!
Mega City Four anybody? I saw them, Jesus Jones, Ned's and the Wonder Stuff on the same bill in 1989 at the Barrowlands. Saw the Wonder Stuff touring 8 legged groove machine a couple of years ago and the were still pretty good. Miles Hunt though, perfect for rhyming slang.

What can I say, Im genre defying 😉
The female singer in bleach once trod on my foot at the Mayfair in Newcastle when they supported ride
Happy days
Always had a soft spot for Slowdive. Basically Ride songs pitched down 10% and with the reverb adjusted from 10 to 11 🙂
anyone remember sunshot? they were fab and good night said Florence?
I once got clouted on the back of the head by the NEWFADS basist* at a very "intimate" gig somewhere in coventry (or was it solihull?)
* not him, his geetar obviously,
never heard of them tazz.
I still listen to all my Tindersticks stuff though.
Neds they used to drink in the Mitre, PWEI in the er was it Swan? Little place just before the ring road
I could often be seen sporting a neds t-shirt in the early nineties.
Another thing they had in common with pwei (and, IIRC, James) was that they famously sold many more t-shirts than records.

blimey, you sound like a right cheerful chappie! 😉
just remebered the jokey gaye bykers on acid spin off lesbian dopeheads on mopeds
going through old vinyl now....Birdland, jeesus forgotten them, their cover of Patti Smiths "rock n roll n..ger" was brilliant....vague memories of snakebite and black and pernod sicups at that gig.

Just for you tazz.
The full drill your own hole video.
damn me and my spell check, hangs head in shame xx
anagallis.
Yes it was the Swan.
Still is the Swan but it's a bit different now.
if your on facebook you might want to look up this group
Old Gits MX Re-Union 12-12-12
Thanks but I'll give it a miss.
I still sometimes ride with know a few of the old faces.
Remember lighting most of those names in my first year at Uni. From memory it was only Neds we didn't have pass through. Chumbawumba were great. Kingmaker simply the loudest gig I've ever been near. 140dB at FoH during soundcheck and over 130dB during the gig - it was like being beaten with sledgehammers (in a good way). But simply THE MOST amazing bass guitar sound ever (until the bassist cooked his valve powered box of tricks mid-gig anyway).

They even played at the mighty JB's[/i]
That place and the original Robin Hood pub were brilliant live music venues.
Blimey - memories!
Still got the PWEI "sample it loop it f*** it and eat it long sleeved shirt knocking about somewhere...
god I saw this lot loads, usually supporting these hooligans

and I bet a pint of mild isnt 99p as well!!
You'd struggle to get a pint of mild for any price in there now. 😆
blast from the past.. I've seen Kingmaker more times than I care to remember, they seemed to support every band going for a while. Couldn't tell you one of their songs.
Dead on arrival, the 90s revival...
I take it you've not seen Cud recently then? As good as they always were - even the doubter I took along had his socks blown off by how tight they were and could still gig like they were kids.
I loved Kingmaker - had the "F&&k me It's Kingmaker" t-shirt. Listen to em now and can't imagine why I liked em so much!
