I saw them a few times. Last time was '82, the year they quit touring. And as they're no longer together I guess we'll never have the chance again.
I saw a great XTC cover band called 'Fossil Fools' but they quit as well in 2010.

Jim, I thought you were a bit unsure of KJ. Go see them and be converted.

Yeah the verdict is out - I like some of their 80s stuff but it gets a bit too tribal for me - I've heard they're amazing live though

When they are on form, they really are shit hot, but like everyone else they have a not so hot one every now and then. Luckily they tend to stay away from the less popular stuff from the 80s and the last few tours since the original members re-united, Jaz has been on top form, he got his mojo back and I guess its cos Big Paul is back in the fold. Give em a go on the next tour.
