Any fans on here? I've liked them for a long time now but for some reason only bought a couple of compilations of theirs. I've been completely blown away now I've gotten hold of some of their albums and listened to them in their entirety. Laid is a spectacular album, and Booth is such a charismatic performer.

Will they be playing again soon I wonder?

Aah, you'll be that reprobate from the RS1900 thread

I'm just having a listen to Johnny Yen live in Manchester at the moment. I regret not seeing them live.

I can imagine, they just seem to have a chemistry which you don't see very often at all. Maybe they seemed so good due to the Foo Fighters' averageness?

I have a live version of Born of Frustration (circa 95 i think) + its one of my fave live performances ever

Just the song, or is it a full performance?

They don't play 'sit down' live any longer.

Thank God, never liked that really compared to everything else.

It was an awesome experience 20 years back at the Come Home gig, though.

Sadly they're unlikely to tour the UK this year, as Tim is on a solo tour, but I'm hoping they'll be back in 2012.

And watching this performance gives it an extra dimension too:

Although I do agree, they wrote so many better songs than Sit Down.
