This Ford Ka one linked from Myspace is disturbingly amusing. I've seen it before on ebaum, but it still makes me chuckle in a Dr Evil kind of way.

I remember the showbiz kids well, my cousin was the lead singer an incredible showman.
They were the biggest band in Sunderland at the time, always sold out the Locarno. He went on to form Well Well Well (still have the records).
He then put together a rythm & blues band called the Aligators who were a great band and also huge in Sunderland, they also packed the fish quay festival when they played there.
He was then asked to join the New Animals by Hylton Valentine and toured the world with them.
He is now singing with Dr. Feelgood and has been for quite a few years now. Robert Plant seen them at the Marquee in London and said it was the best thing they had ever done getting him as lead singer.

Yes out of all of them he did really well. I've got the footage from the revolver show, he was full of energy to say the least. Think Showbiz kids did a demo but can't track that down yet.

Next time I see him CJ I'll ask him about the demo.

There's info and pictures of him on the Dr. Feelgood web page.
I have to say, I believe he was one of the best front men in the business but just did'nt get the right breaks.

That would be great. I know the original bass player, and he's got the demo on tape but it's old and will degrade so darn't play it overmuch. Would love to surprise him with a mint copy. If not though not to worry. Cheers. :5headset:
