I edited my profile with Thomas Myspace Editor V3.6 ! The band first appeared in 1983, when they toured the UK, playing rattraps, and shitholes almost for free. Hardly anyone attended these shows, but the band still landed an appearance on Jules Hollands TV-show "The Tube". Sadly a fight between band-members broke out, on-camera, and the band split up right after.The band reunited in 1987, when they were offered a record contract with the independant label "Frilly Pink", a gay label most renowned for their discoreleases. The band recorded one single for the label, "Warriors of Ghenghis Khan", before they were sold on to EMI (Every Mistake Imaginable), a major label renowned for almost having turned The Beatles down twice. The label released the bands debut album, "Bad News", in 1987.The band appeared at the Monsters of Rock festival at Castle Donington that year. Their set was cut short when the band was attacked by fans (fans of Heavy Metal, not fans of Bad News) on stage. Apparantly bandleader Vim Fuego had made some remark about being the reincarnation of Jimi Hendrix, which incited the riot. The intire band was hospitalised after the riot, but in December they were back on the road. They were supporting Motörhead, on a national tour, in the wake of their first hitsingle, "Cashing In On Christmas", recorded, produced, and released by EMI, almost without the bands involvement.Then the band split up again....Their only appearance ever since was on the Comic Relief '89 show, where only Vim, Spider, and Den turned up. Colin couldn't be bothered! The lack of decent Heavy Metal instruments prevented them from performing on the show. .. |
