Glop! and several others have shared the stage with them during the 1990s. Then, radio silence after a final concert in tribute to The Clash’s deceased leader Joe Strummer in 2005.
Even though the band was not too much to be seen live in the last years, lead vocalist Pierre Tombasles and bassist Julien gone to other adventures, the songs have accumulated. Dan Halen and Pat Panik are now Les Stups. Pat, Doug and Julien were also members of Sick Jaggers and Julien is now with Double Date With Death.
