OH  MY  GOD.
 
 "A Wish Away" is one of my all time favorite songs, and I adore 8-legged groove machine.  
 
 OH MY GOD.
 
 Oh man, and "Give Give Give Me More, More, More"
 
 Excellent stuff.  I didn't think I'd ever see them again, and I barely remember seeing them back in '91.
 ================
 So, do we think Miles will be playing old Wonderstuff stuff?
 
 from the wonderstuff website
 
 "It may not have escaped your notice that there is a band out there purporting to be "The Wonder Stuff"  who are touring in October. As we see it, we feel that you are owed an explanation. This band is releasing a solo album by Miles Hunt provisionally titled, "Escape From Rubbish Island" and has re-branded it under the name of "The Wonder Stuff" (to be released on IRL recordings, an independent label associated with Spirit Music & Media, Miles' management company). However, we feel it is only right to point out that Martin Gilks & Martin Bell, along with Stuart Quinnell and Peter Whitaker, have nothing whatsoever to do with either this tour or the recording. We perceive this as merely a marketing ploy by Hunt  & IRL. It appears that Malcom Treece will be making an appearance with this group, although we have had no confirmation from Malcom at this time.
 
 We would like to thank everyone who has supported us since the reformation concerts in December 2000 and are sorry that things have ended up the way they have. But this situation is not of our making.
 
 Martin Bell & Martin Gilks.

I saw them in 89 just after HUP came out. They had neds atomic dustbin as support. It was a great gig.
