Sorry to announce that unfortunately we must cancel our forthcoming concert in Istanbul this coming weekend as on Friday the 28th last, Neil found himself with a torn muscles and a trapped nerve in his back. Over the last 4 days he has been unable to walk unaided or without extreme pain. He has been advised against travelling or playing, it being extremely unwise and likely to lead to further complications, whilst at the same time significantly delaying his recovery.

Neil said…
“I wish there was a rock&roll story to my injury but there isn’t!
Unfortunately, I have been flattened by the pain and must listen to advice, focus on getting well and be careful not to aggravate the injury further.

So, with a heavy heart I must send a massive apology to our friends in Instanbul who were coming to see us at the concert on 7th March with Duman. I know myself, Andy and Michael were really, really buzzing about playing in Turkey again and I’m really gutted about my injury and the reason we have to pull out. So sorry everyone. Hope you still have an amazing night!”

The band hope to arrange new dates in Turkey in the not too distant future and will be working on some with our Turkish promoters.

By popular demand we’ve brought back a couple of the ‘classic’ shirts from the 90’s and they are now available to order at the shop.

First up is the 1992 “Teethgrinder” shirt which features a version of the single art. Avails HERE

The other design is the infamous 1993 “Die Laughing” ‘clown’ shirt, guaranteed to give you nightmares and much better than an Xmas jumper for the office party. This one has a back print and comes on two different shirt colours, ash grey & natural and you can get one HERE
