Ooh they are a Welsh band - playing in Cwmbran this Friday night, I may pop along and let you know what they are like - I know Brian Astley has seen them before perhaps he can comment maybe?

Thanks for cross posting this on the new Dead Ringers thread, Bella. I thought we shouldn't fill up this thread with an alternative tribute band.

I think the Dead Ringers in Cwmbran on Friday night are a different band, and only do about 3 Stranglers covers. I haven't seen them before, but i'm going on Friday, so would be good if you pop along Bella!

"Phil's Finger" - a great name for the B side track of a Stranglers single !

The question remains - 100 Club? Hope and Anchor? Doing both is not option for me.

Not the only band on the bill at 100 Club, not sure how long their set will be.
