    I saw them live in Bristol, 1980 or so. Fantastic concert, with Hugh Cornwall well on form!
    Got me a t-shirt/programme, now lost in the mists of time.
    Got a few of their LP's/singles, so now need one of those new-fangled gizzmos that changes Lps/Singles to CD's.
    The Men In Black...Are BACK!!!
  • i will be going to see them in march now that singer has left,it was never quite right with one guy up front on the mic,you could tell JJ didnt like not being the centre of attention.

    Yes, I think that was a bit of a low period when Hugh left and they recruited Paul Robers. Paul was never a 'Strangler' and felt he didn't fit in, I'm pleased he left. JJ is most certainly taking more centre stage and using his voice! I do wonder how long the boys have got left, could 2010 be their last tour ?
  • Going to see them in Aberdeen end of February which will be a frightenly 26 years after I first seen them in concert.....
  • I've seen them a few times and I quite liked Paul as the frontman he was a bit of a showman. The last time I saw them was in Aberdeen and Paul had just left. It was different and a lot more , well, raw really.

    I'm liking them as much as ever really. Still have soft spot for Hugh I guess though and would love to see his return but tob e fair to the lads they're still going strong and sounding as good as they ever have. The new single sounds a belter.
  • Thanks for this!. As a result I've just been playing them on Spotify for the last two hours. Worrying that I can still remember all the words to the first 4 albums having not listened to them for twenty years.. (I was a BIG fan first time round).

    Awesome stuff. Reminds me of sitting in the back of my dad's mk2 Granada (have you seen the value of these lately? He should've kept it!) when I was a kid (and mother coughing over the naughty words).

    I think my girlfriend and I are the only people under the age of 30 who have actually heard of them!
