 	I have to agree with that, and it's surprised me too. The last 
time I saw them Danny Miranda was back on bass and it was the thing they 
did that best suited his style, and it was a bit of a monster.

 	Who's drumming with them now? Because that sounds *just* like 
Bobby Rondinelli to me. Except that the thing with him was that he looked 
like that all through the gigs, and then when the solo came his arms and 
legs sped up and he carried on grimacing and panting and so on at exactly 
the same rate as if his limbs were nothing to do with him. It was slightly 
bizarre. Yours,
