    Little Angels facts :-
         
    * They're a UK band, from up north.
    * They supported Queensryche on their 1989 UK tour dates.
    * They have two albums out (the latest is called "Don't prey
      (correct spelling) for me" - can't remember the name of the other
      album).                                   
    * Kickin' up dust if the new single.         
    * I caught two plectrums when I saw 'em live.
    * They suck 8^).

    That last point was absolute garbage .
    
    Little Angels are really good .
    
    I never heard of another album .... if anyone knows what it is , let me
    know !
    
    Or do you mean one of the early EP's ('Too Posh to Mosh' , 
    '90 in the shade'(I think) and 'Big Bad EP') ?
    
    Also , if anyone's got either of the first two of the above , vinyl or CD ,
    I'd like to talk prices .

Does those guys have a brass section?

I catched a live video which was quite good. I first thouht they were The
QuireBoys.

    Didier,they use brass instruments in a few songs but not a brass
    section as such,saw them at the week end,they were pretty good.

    Atlast, some people with REAL taste.
    
    I've liked these guys one hell of a lot for almost 2 years now, and
    I've successfully managed to miss seeing them every single time they've
    played within 200 miles of me (about 4/5 times that I know of) but I've
    managaed to get a few gigs from radio broadcasts.
    
    They're not getting very big very fast, but Radio1 is giving them a lot
    of air time as far as broadcast shows are concerned, just a pity that
    Milton Keynes wasn't recorded and that Donnington won't be.

    the lead singe came across a quite arrogant towards the end of the set,
    but they were still ok musically,just ok.

    I bought the single Radical your lover 'cause it was ok but most of all
    it was in the bargain bin at the local music store.

403.15Live at Town & Country, LondonCASEE::LALLIDidier - BCE Valbonne - DTN 828.5423Fri Jul 12 1991 05:2511
I watch the last part of the video and it was recorded at the "Town & Country" 
in London.

When I said a brass section I meant a trombon and a trumpet. They were playing
in 50% of the songs. 

The last encore was "Wherever I go, kids wanna rock". Who did this song ?
 
I thought the all thing was quite good, but that's just my opinion.

    I saw them support Queensryche a couple of years back at Hammersmith.
    
    I still think they suck.

    The bands new drummer hails from Reading and having just seen the photo 
    of the band in Kerrang, I've seen him spending many a shitfaced evening 
    at The Plaza in Wokingham.
    
    In an interview the guitarist was asked what the bands next step was
    and he repled :-
    
    "Our role is to keep the traditions of rock 'n' roll going in our
    generation, cos there's nobody else out there doin' it. There's nobody
    who can play their instruments and understand the whole history of
    music"
    
    Try telling that to the likes of Aerosmith!! What a pretentious little
    toss pot!
