A friend of the singer took this at a gig the other night and I thought it looked so nice I'm tempted to suggest we use it as a promo type shot...sort of missing the drummer though, but thats actually good as we had someone stand in for our usual drummer that night anyway!

"These Brits were too dumb to even FIND the brick wall that the garage doors are attatched to!"

laugh ot loud stuff/comments here...

Or...Prehaps...."Jeremy put his shades on and PROOVED he was the "coolest"one"

Came across some old promo stills towards the end of last year. I'm the one on the left looking a little vacant.
This was mid 80's German new wave period. You should have seen the one Polydor chose from the same shoot for the first single and album inner sleeve... embarrasing is not the word. But we were a good live band.

Here's one from a series of photos of Red Jackson busking in Guildford. The photographer handed us some fairly straight prints afterwards (he was working in a camera shop) and then posted these photoshopped ones on flikr. We use this one on all our promo material - we think it captures the 'romance' of the street band combined with a retro feel appropriate to an outfit playing '40s-'50s rhythm'n'blues. Also has the advantage that I'm not in it.
