...what the fuck is going on on that "Peter's Pop Party" appearance? (for those who haven't seen it, it's eldritch performing i was wrong and more on some mainland pop show, backed by some random grebo's with a bloke playing the drums, for fuck's sake!!!) :eek:

ah, if only our chairman hadn't forsaken his post as this forum's editor...then perhaps we might be told the truth. or not. :P

Hey that's The Girls going through their 'housewife-friendly' phase. They appear to have gotten over it by the time they were delivering the sometimes sludgey industrial rockathon of the late 90s. :von:

but where does it end, when people start miming with instruments that aren't on backing-tape? can we expect a jug-band and a tramp playing the spoons?
stylo-phone ensembles and james ray playing the triangle? :roll:

That was a real strange experience the first time I saw it...
Apparently the bunch of blokes backing ole' :von: was an existing band from Cologne called Supreme Machine. How's that for ridiculously useless info :P :wink:

There's a whole thing in one of the UTG magazines about this. Eldritch was asked to do this, he had no real band, let alone crew, etc. - so he decided to get some friends and do this for some fun. Apparently they recorded more of it, but only some of it was broadcast. I'll dig it up if I have time, but I think all the UTG's are in the archive?
