They were quite good fun when I saw them at T In The Park as they were still touring the 2nd album.
Anyone seen The Wildhearts since they reformed? The 4th time I saw them nearly 10 years ago was so bad I never went to see them again thanks to Ginger's shitty attitude.

I tried re-listening to Terrorvision and co and yeah, good pop hooks but it doesn't say anything to me about my life anymore.

Can anyone answer the original thread question? What do Shutty and Tony and the others do these days? I know the guy from Kerbdog hosts a radio show over in Ireland but what about the rest of the 'peak at #34' lot?

Terrorvision actually got a No 1 didn't they?

Brigadier Lethbridge-Pfunkboy (Kerr), Saturday, 7 October 2006 18:36 (seventeen years ago) link

I think #2 was as high as they got - it was a remix of "Tequila", kept off the top by "Pretty Fly (For A White Guy)". Kerrang! were all "ROCK IS BACK!" about it at the time.

Maybe someone can confirm it.

There it is.

LC (Damian), Saturday, 7 October 2006 20:30 (seventeen years ago) link

Look at what was no 10.

Brigadier Lethbridge-Pfunkboy (Kerr), Saturday, 7 October 2006 20:38 (seventeen years ago) link

Sebadoh and Humate in the top 30. Wild!

DJ Mencap (DJ Mencap), Sunday, 8 October 2006 11:17 (seventeen years ago) link

Englebert Humperdinck and Frank Sinatra at 40 and 41 (and Tony Christie at 16)!

Tony Wright is always really good value on Buzzcocks (or was, since i haven't actually seen it for ages). It used to be a cert that just as the series was going shit, they'd wheel out either him or Shovel from M People - the Buzzcocks versions of Boris Johnson, I assume.

Anyone who's actually burning to find out what these clowns are up to now, this is from their Wikipedia entry (misplaced semi-colons included):

The aftermath
Since splitting up, singer Tony Wright has formed Laika Dog; guitarist Mark Yates formed firstly the short-lived Boston Crabs and then Blunderbuss with biker bass player Sasquatch Bob, releasing one album to date, Relentless; whilst Leigh Marklew formed Malibu Stacey who released one album On Heat before splitting up. Ian Shuttleworth sought employment in Leeds, serving the UK's public education sector.

The re-union
The group has since reformed to play two tours in 2005, and played what was described as their 'last EVER show' at Rock In The Castle in Scarborough, Yorkshire, on 17 September, 2005. A collection of B-sides and rarities was also issued by EMI in September 2005.

Terrorvision's original recording studio in Bradford is currently being revamped by Grant Henderson, and it will be launched as "Ivolv" in the first quarter of 2006.

???

Brigadier Lethbridge-Pfunkboy (Kerr), Sunday, 8 October 2006 20:55 (seventeen years ago) link

He's a teacher.

ailsa (ailsa), Sunday, 8 October 2006 21:02 (seventeen years ago) link

Would this be him?

Too much hair.

Brigadier Lethbridge-Pfunkboy (Kerr), Sunday, 8 October 2006 21:12 (seventeen years ago) link

Oh yeah, and younger than me. Scratch that.

ailsa (ailsa), Sunday, 8 October 2006 21:16 (seventeen years ago) link

The thought of Shutty teaching is hilarious to me though. I doubt Ian will be able to get his head round that.

Brigadier Lethbridge-Pfunkboy (Kerr), Sunday, 8 October 2006 21:17 (seventeen years ago) link

He might not be a teacher. He might be a school janitor or something. Who knows?

ailsa (ailsa), Sunday, 8 October 2006 21:19 (seventeen years ago) link

I like to imagine him as a fun loving lollipop man.

Noone got anything to add to the 90s hard rock Nostalgia Fest of HELL?

Brigadier Lethbridge-Pfunkboy (Kerr), Monday, 9 October 2006 10:54 (seventeen years ago) link

What tracks would you include on an Evening Session 4cd box set of the 90s?

1) Therapy? - Screamager

Brigadier Lethbridge-Pfunkboy (Kerr), Monday, 9 October 2006 10:58 (seventeen years ago) link

xpost, nostalgia rockfest line-up additions!

Thunder
The Almighty
Paradise Lost
Warrior Soul
Senseless Things
Headswim

Neil Stewart (Neil Stewart), Monday, 9 October 2006 11:02 (seventeen years ago) link

That 4cd box set should have been rock show/evening session (since lots of bands got played on both.)

The evening session thread can have its own box.

Brigadier Lethbridge-Pfunkboy (Kerr), Monday, 9 October 2006 11:33 (seventeen years ago) link

Has anyone heard Ricky Warwick of The Almighty's country album?

I never even knew that this guy had died. Never really into MC4 all that much but they were inarguably a grand bunch of blokes. And they put heart and soul into the one gig of theirs I saw, played in the back room of a Manchester pub in their early days with literally NO-ONE there apart from me and the bar staff. RIP Wiz.

NickB (NickB), Monday, 29 January 2007 09:26 (seventeen years ago) link

lol, "compare".

jimn (jimnaseum), Monday, 29 January 2007 10:18 (seventeen years ago) link

What do you suppose Andy Cairns will be playing at that show? Has he gone all sensitive acoustic singer-songwriter?

Neil Stewart (Neil Stewart), Monday, 29 January 2007 11:08 (seventeen years ago) link

My brother vaguelly knew MC4. He's thanked on the sleeve of Who Cares Wins. Wiz is/was about the closest thing he's got to a hero apart from David Hirst. He was gutted when he found out.

Sick Mouthy (Nick Southall), Monday, 29 January 2007 11:13 (seventeen years ago) link

Any idea what he died of?

NickB (NickB), Monday, 29 January 2007 11:21 (seventeen years ago) link

There's a Myspace tribute page for him which I imagine a google search would turn up

Hell Hath No Furry (DJ Mencap), Monday, 29 January 2007 11:31 (seventeen years ago) link

Bloodclot on the brain, I think.

Sick Mouthy (Nick Southall), Monday, 29 January 2007 11:36 (seventeen years ago) link

Sheesh, poor dude.

Are Therapy? still going?

No one cared about Therapy? enough to know.

I know Andy Cairns' sister.

Jarlrmai, Tuesday, 10 June 2008 14:36 (fifteen years ago) link

I used to care about Therapy? quite a bit. I even thought Infernal Love was decent.

chap, Tuesday, 10 June 2008 16:41 (fifteen years ago) link

No! Infernal Love was awful.

Herman G. Neuname, Tuesday, 10 June 2008 16:48 (fifteen years ago) link

I haven't listened to it for a decade or more, so you could well be right. At the time I thought it was a fair attempt to broaden their sound.

Therapy? should do one of those ATP gigs where they only do the 2 eps and Nurse

There was a punky one with a single word name beginning with C who some of my friends liked. Though they might've been American.
