 <\/span>From Rex
\nBrough –<\/span><\/b><\/p>\n

 <\/span>“A
\ndadaesque krautrock\/ forced audience participation comedy band. Evil Wind
\nplayed The Hope and Anchor week after week in 1982, to growing acclaim, with a
\nshow that was part BONZO DOG BAND, part “Vic Reeves Big Night Out”.
\nAlso played the Belgrade Big Show (1983), supported the fabulous, forgotten
\nTRIMMER and JENKINS at General Wolfe. Was possibly the first band to “mike
\nup” a felt tip pen in order to demonstrate the futility of war (during the
\nFalklands conflict). Last band in Coventry known to use custard pies. Recorded
\ndemo in 1982. (Demo available on CD from Cabin Studios, Coventry for the true
\nmasochist).<\/span><\/p>\n

Jonny
\nHarper cycled around the planet 1984-86 and now lives in Bristol.Alf Hardy went
\non to work with Doc Mustard\/Tubilah Dog\/Hawkwind\/The Pilgrims\/Sonic Boom EAR
\nand Spectrum. He now engineers at Cabin Studios in Coventry.) Brian Rust is a
\nMarine Biologist leading a ‘really hard life’ aboard a research vessel in the
\nMed. Alex Easton went “Missing in Action” during attempt to drink all
\nthe alcohol in Newcastle (got married and moved to Geordieland). Caroline
\nJewkes now is working with drummer\/guitarist\/singer Steve Hands (veteran of
\nmany Cov bands, recently in Peter Perrets The One)”<\/span><\/p>\n
