    Yes I mulled it long and hard, they really should be there as well as CAN, Sex Pistols and The Who .

    Wire are a class act by the way!

    You may be interested to hear I have been emailing John Weinzerl from Amon Duul and he is looking into bringing the band here to Ireland if he can get a decent promoter. PM me if you can think of any worthwhile promoters. I let you know if I hear any news.
