Rate The Dandy Warhols

Rate Coldplay - Seated

Rachel Stamp? Koko 07 Nov 2000 Or some band connected with them. They were dressed as KISS I think, did they do KISS covers too? Was this the band that Chris Dale from Atom Seed was also in? Two gigs in one night, very drunk by the time I got to this one...

Rate Rachel Stamp?
