COF

Catonform1

Really am very sorry to hear the news that Cat on Form have split and are no more. I got an email from the band saying it was all very amicable and that they're still friends, but that they wanted to stop. I saw Cat on Form a couple of times, once supporting Fugazi, which really woke me up to them, and then in the hole that is the Freebutt in Brighton. Its a fantastic venue, the walls are wet with sweat and the atmosphere was electrifying, especially for Cat on Form. They played "clean", with the house lights on, and the guitars squealling and shouting. I really looked forward to getting emails from the band, they read like a film, cancelled gigs, big nights, injuries and new members. They had a great drummer called Eva who thrashed like a woman possessed, she was a fearsome sight. I was sorry to hear she had back problems which meant cancelled gigs, until finally she had to let it go.

I'm sure its not the last we'll see from the members of this wonderful band, there's too much talent on show here, but in the meantime, there are still a few whispers, and a few records left.

Cat on Form and Southern Records There are some great photos, also mp3's and back catalogue.

Sorry man, I thought you knew - didn't you get the email from Steve? I have ordered thier album from Southern and it should arrive soon - I will let you have a listen (then you can buy your own copy)

The Phil Collins 3 are still going I believe - but I think they deserve a post just for them - I'll do it tonight - they have a terrific website too, I'll include the link.
