I saw them live and they were a great bit of fun, hell I even bought the VHS of Drill Your Own Hole! Their second album Stewed to the Gills is a fine platter, check it out pop pickers! ;D

What an amazing marketing idea. I wonder who actually did drill one?

Probably nothing more than any of their contemporaries per se. Just remember endless discussion about their guitar solos at school. Wasn't Cozy Powell, he of the interminable drum solos in them also? Can drum solos be interesting? Guitar solos are dull enough! ;D

Cozy was in Rainbow and Deep Purple, not Sabbath - that stool has been occupied by Bill Ward, Bev Bevan and Carmine Appice only AFAIK

When they played at Edinburgh Uni they brought along their own crash barriers, obviously to hold back the crowd. Fortunately they weren't needed, coz they were wank :innocent:
