Cool - the brixton gig ie the one from their live vid/album "Live at Brixton Academy" ? If so then DAMN!! Seeing great bands that early in their careers is just awesome.

Fave songs? well Ashes to Ashes (what a chorus!) stripsearch and midlife crisis are all faves along with Caffeine, King for a day, Cukoo for Caca, Last to know, Gentle art of making enemies, War pigs (Ozzy should be proud) Woodpecker from Mars and .. bleh theyre all good.

Had no idea about the Bee Gee's writing for them.... thats just plain madness.. Which song?
I wasnt too keen on FNM prior to Mike joining either - the difference between introduce yourself and the real thing is massive.. they sound like totally different bands, and continued to evolve in a totally unique and (here we go again) diverse way.. sort of glad they quit when they did as clearly werent happy working with one another towards the end, and just staying together for money and making another record would have probably ruined many fans perception of them (as it would have been a shite release... not somthing FNM fans were used to ).
