Barrie's the only original member (the drummer is
Steve Nichols' nephew)

BTW there's nothing wrong with "Life on the Line" at
all. It's a perfectly great album. I haven't heard
"Thriller" (the Hot Rods album, not Jacko) 
in ages, and don't remember much about it other than
"The Power and The Glory". I remember "Fish and Chips"
as being disappointing, and the band ignored requests
from the audience for the title track. Haven't heard
the 90s/00s albums. 

I was a bit surprised that they did "Teenage
Depression" as the second song, and "Do Anything You
Wanna Do" in the middle of the set. The encore was
"Get Out of Denver" (they did a second encore of
"Gloria" and "Satisfaction")
