Well at least they put out an average of about an album a month while they were together, so we've got plenty to listen to.

For obvious reasons I didn't either, but someone just commented on my Facebook - "Bummer. Saw these guys twice in as many years. Pure energy."

So it sounds like it was a good night out. I expect Milchman will be able to verify that. I think they're one of the few bands that everyone here agrees were good!

Only just seen this and it's disappointing news but I'm sure Dwyer will be back - Castle Face seems to be releasing so much now that he mustn't have too much time for TOS.

I'd love to know what Milchy is referring to as "the gig that got them written out of the history of Artrocker". I never saw Dwyer before TOS but my favourite gig of theirs was at the Luminaire where sweat was running down the walls - I always thought that was a cliche but that evening everyone was going insane.

Artrocker was such an anti-climax.

Agreed. Great concept and Delia is/was terrific but at least one of the main editors is/was an arse (That rule only applies to that 'zine... Ahem)

Love that photo though. Begiining to sound like Milchy's our Zelig / Forrest Gump type character, always there at key moments in (rock) history.

You can see the fear in those little Milchy peepers. Incidentally, do all Spurs fans have extremely pippy eyes?

Spam by the looks of it. That account was only active for 5 minutes and only logged on once. I'll delete it...

So, not so much a hiatus announcement as an out-of-office auto-reply, then.

There's no stopping that man.

I see The Walkmen are on "indefinite hiatus" now too...
