Re: Happy birthday, Marky!
Question for Marky: I dialled up the documentary DOA this morning and was curious whether you knew anything about Terry Sylvester and the Idiots. I don't gather they ever formally recorded anything, but do you know if he went on to anything else or was this his very brief moment of quasi-fame?

They literally formed for that movie and split up a couple of days after the filming. I don't know if Terry did anything else but the bassist Malcolm Joseph went on to play with Massive Attack and Neneh Cherry.Dr. Medulla wrote:Question for Marky: I dialled up the documentary DOA this morning and was curious whether you knew anything about Terry Sylvester and the Idiots.

I hate that segment in the movie and Terry just comes across as a total moron.Dr. Medulla wrote:Ha, that's great.
