The comedy equivalent is when your second stand-up tour is all jokes about motorway service stations and what the deal is with those little bottles of hotel shampoo.

There was. 3.30am, laying awake watching this :(

- It was filmed at a club in London
- Host Eddy Temple-Morris called them "So cool it HURTS"
- I was invited by another band who performed that night (Satellite Beach! Yes, them)
- All the other performances were on tape
- I paid Β£8 for 2 Cokes
Big Beat was a great genre, it produced some brilliantly fun tunes. I need to find my CD copy of this www.discogs.com/release/5764...
