Bio:
"Played first gig, after buying first instruments a week previous at the
Radiators farewell [before moving to London]
gig at Morans pub in 1977. Recorded a
demo in Eamonn Andrews Studio [unreleased]. Did two tours of Ireland, the
first with Sacre Blue, the second as a package, The Dream Dates Tour [in June-July 1979],
including a gig at the Dandelion Market
on Sunday 15 July 1979,
with
The Sinners and The Boy Scoutz.
This was probably the first tour by three
unsigned bands in Ireland."
Early on ca 1977 the band used fabric related pseudonyms: Sean was Niall On (Nylon),
Bernie was Billy Cotton, and the other three were Terry Lean (Terylene), Ray On (Rayon),
and another one my informant can't remember (anyone recall it?).
Kevin Murray may have played bass at one point.
Mick Nolan later in New Heroes.
Paul Rooney & Mick Nolan later in Ghostdance.
