Yes the bassist is still Barry, a good friend of me and my family. We've been friends of each others families for near enough 10 years now.
Anyhow, The band did reform, they are doing a few gigs around and about, getting back into it. Very lavish set, lights and lasers believe it or not, sounding very very good.
The guitarist (Neil, I think) was talking to me about how they need to tighten up and then they'll keep on gigging, but in my opinion they are already bloody good enough.
They're playing Darwen Music Live this year, Main Stage I believe. Worth watching.
