I saw these guys in front of a crowd of about 10 people at the Dublin Castle back in 2000. They had only just signed to BB records.
I own a signed copy of TheKidsWhoPopTodayWillRockTomorrow and the first ever t-shirt they did. In those days we could chat with them after the gigs. Good times.
Seeing them back then, and at subsequent gigs for about a year after that, I knew they were going to be big but they have surpassed my expectations.

A lot of my mates were really into them when they were first kicking about on the bar scene in Edinburgh and Glasgow.
I never paid much attention to them until they became more mainstream, to be honest. I think Only Revolutions is a great album. I hear they put on a damn fine show.
