I've told this story before but years ago I was playing golf and was paired up with a stranger who saw my Bunnymen sticker on my golf bag and told me he was in a terrible band called Rubber Radio who opened for the Bunnymen and that Hugh Jones produced one of their albums. It was a great few hours of golf and conversation about post-punk music. I never really pursued the matter much but for some reason thought of them just now. Apparently they have a wikipedia page now.

Guess I'll try and find some music to check out.

With the Force as his ally he did battle with the Dark Lord. And he showed the measure of a true Jedi at a place called "The Death Star" where hope for the Galaxy was reborn. May all who struggle against tyranny hold his memory in their hearts

Glad to hear it.

This was on the youtubes... perhaps it should have remained on there.

Oh my God the guy wasn't kidding. I told him I would look them up and he said don't bother they were awful.

Notice how its mostly the American Rubber Rodeo fans being negative.
