I previously played in a band from Manchester, called Sandmen. We recorded EPs 'Tighten Up', 'Dust Devil', 'Buffalo' and an LP - 'Excavator'. We appeared on Tony Wilson's music programme on Granada TV. We would play support for The Fall a lot, and get to play at The Hacienda / Free Trade Hall / Clapham Grand / Brixton Fridge.
