That was actually DDB's predecessors, the equally ludicrously named Reel Aliens. Infused with the spirit of punk rock, that band formed first and started thinking about learning our instruments later. It was raw but had an energy that people liked and responded too. We supported Runrig two or three times, and The Pogues on one memorable occasion. >He also gave me lots of other juicy > gossip, Dave, so I'd be nice to me if I were you, or I might let > something slip...

I'd love to hear it. I'll give you a copy of the LP (the price of your silence...)
