If you’re not fond of silly sounding, makey up phrases what are you doing living in Australia?

Not at all… They were part of the Manchester (Madchester) scene that threw up the Roses, Charlatans, 808 State etc etc. It was very much a sister movement to the early house / rave scene . It took on elements of rock and dance and was very much on a level with the rave scene for ecstasy use… A lot of people probably found the rave scene from listening to bands like the Mondays.

You were a shit kicker from Wexford at the time, going around with an Iron Maiden leather jacket and a bandana around your head… I wouldn’t expect you to know much about it.

They were a naff novelty band, kind of like Chas and Dave, just without the integrity.

An intriguing though ultimately bogus opinion there.

Liberating it from colonialism.
Obviously.

What age were you at the time?
It was Mama’s Boys btw, I can’t stand Iron Maiden.

I was too young to appreciate them in their glory. I didn’t even have fuzz around the little man.

I have a lovely memory of heading down to Wexford for a wedding in 1991. Back when the stag party was the night before the wedding. Three of us in the Opel Kadett, seedy as bejaysus from the night before and Pills Thrills and Bellyaches on the cassette deck and we roaring along to it without a care in the world. Good times.

Back when you could hitchhike or drive with a heap of porter on board.

Hurry up then.

Seen them live a few times and they were very good back then in their pomp. Seem to remember seeing their offshoot Black Grape play the Bridge Hotel back in the mid to late 90s. Another good night.

Another band associated with the Manchester scene The Inspiral Carpets played the Metroland around 92 or 93 I think. They were brilliant that night. Noel Gallagher might have still been a roadie for them at the time.

They were the opener for Blur in the RDS in 1996. Bez was out of his tree. Supergrass were the main support act.

I think Jeremy Kyle and Jesse Marsch kind of look alike and was agreed with in real life in the pub so I’m chancing my arm here. Can’t really find good lookalike photo’s though.
