Just been asked to support 999 in November, which makes up for my own huge disappointment at the Exploited cancelling their appearance with us at North East Calling in September. :mrgreen:

999 still exist? Wow. Regardless, cool news and congrats!

I was surprised at only 2 line up changes in 40 years. Most bands of their ilk have had about 50 members.

Mark E. Smith can do that between Fall albums.

Ask him if Joe and Mick ever talked about how they were going to betray their fans.

Pablo! That's exciting.
Look, you have to establish context for these things. And I maintain that unless you appreciate the Fall of Constantinople, the Great Fire of London, and Mickey Mantle's fatalist alcoholism, live Freddy makes no sense. If you want to half-ass it, fine, go call Simon Schama to do the appendix.

999 are great 'bout time they put out a new studio album though. Nothing since 2007's Death in Soho. Enjoy Heston have a blast!

Here's their '98 album "Takeover" which is great.
