    thats ****in deadly...is that a description of paranoid visions? although if you had said we sound like a ghettoblaster of ranting alcoholic bums being played in stephens green by an 80s punk rocker, it would be more accurate.

    We loved doing the gig! we have a video from the side of the stage too...the camera definately adds 5 pounds to me anyway!

    next stop amsterdam!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Good god, that takes me back. They must be in their mid 40's by now.

    Reminds me of that Vic Reeves song "I Remember Punk Rock".

    I remember Stricknenin DC when i was a kid. The bass Player, Peter Townsend, used to live near me. [SNIP] i remember there were two punk nights there in 1997 and bands like Monkhouse, The Steam Pig and Stricknein DC played on the same bill. Those were the days! it brought quite a following from Dublin and other parts of the country to my Tiny home town, Any body remember those gigs?

    I remember recording a single at Sonic Studios in 1990, the engineer there played drums on their later releases. They were working on a concept rap album about the Gulf War. It was without doubt the funniest thing I've ever heard. Cider Punk at its worst.

    Nothing wrong with Cider Punk...or Cider come to think about it.

    The guy was clearly just not ready for the radical direction that PV were taking. He was probably in a rap group 2 months later when it because fashionable!
