Glad I got to see the original-ish line up years ago.
RIP.

Edit. It was the original line up.

He was part of many game shows I'd watch during the summer when I'd be out of school. Tic-Tac-Dough, High Rollers, Trivial Pursuit, etc. R.I.P.

The Pajo lineup was inspired but I think I’m a pass on this one.

Bummer. I also saw the original line-up earlier that year at the Shepherd's Bush Empire, and they were pretty incendiary.

Also heard a live set on BBC6 Music by the line-up that had Andy Gill as the only original member and it just sounded ... wrong. Tight, but wrong.

LOL

As a recovering Catholic, I have somewhat mixed feelings. Not sure if I could ever go so far as to say that I'll miss a Pope, but let's just say that it's likely that the next one will be worse.
