An aside to the above- in the documentary, Steve Lamacq continually refers to David Balfe as a "former Teardrop Explode", i.e. as one of The Teardrop Explodes. I always thought that in the group's name (The Teardrop Explodes), the word Explodes was employed as an intransitive verb. So it's a short sentence. That's certainly how it was used in the Marvel comic strip from which they took their name.
Have I been wrong all these years? Were they really The Teardrop Explodes, i.e. a plural noun? Like The Smiths or The Cramps or The Ramones?
You should drop Steve a line and tell him. Although he might get upset and carve 4 REAL into his arm
Mr. Plamf. Is there any interest from your end in seeing Mark Stewart and the Maffia at Edinburgh's Voodoo Rooms next Thurs?
