Cheers for that.
The Celibate Rifles are certainly a damn fine band. I know their sound has morphed a bit over the years, but it's all good to me. They've got a thrilling intensity + groove that few bands seem to muster.
I still email their guitarist Kent Steedman periodically, begging them to come over to London (last time was '92) but, as ever, the money's not there. Not, of course, that they're breadheads or anything, but for a cult band from the other side of the world, someone's gotta stick their hands in their pockets. Perhaps there's a wealthy UK Celies fan reading this?!
Cheers for the tip about the Sand Pebbles. I've often heard 'em mentioned but never got round to checking 'em out.
