It was a love affair that lasted 2 years before we returned home to show that the boys had become men, in the time between these events we played many a gig in the Midlands and Yorkshire, breaking intermittently for personal issues. Having had a total of 17 members over the years we now have the strongest line-up we have ever had and are putting into motion an onslaught on your ears.
