I'd be up for it. Size Of A Cow & all that etc etc.
Money might play a factor though... I'll see if its possible.

I never oculd get into them. And the Nicky Fairbairn suit didn't help at all
To be fair, Miles Hunt seems like a very nice person but his music just leaves me cold. Too indie happy for my liking.

Last time I saw them was at the Hollywood Palladium in 1990, supporting The Mish (with Not-As-Fat-Then Bob popping in and out)...
That's been a day or two.

I see your 1990 and raise you 1987...
The Boardwalk, Manchester. "Don't try and find it, it's no there any more" as the saying goes.

Saw The Stuffies being supported by Neds in 1990 and Neds blew them off stage.
