  I've TMTCH more times since they split up than I did when they were together. I first saw them in 1988 when they played a promotional set in the Virgin Megastore on Oxford St when Waiting for Bonapart was released. The only time I've paid to see them was at their "final" gig in 1991. Since then I've seen them numerous times at various festivals.

  Thanks for reminding me that I don't have any of their albums on CD. I'm just off to spend some money :)

    If you like The Men They Couldn't Hang you got to get hold of Swill's solo album "The Day After".

    Swill is the singer/acoustic guitarist with TMTCH and has made an album and an EP. I've been to the 'Mens' live gigs as well as Swill solo gigs and they really are something else : ). Actually, I say solo but as a backing band he does sometimes use the brilliant 'Swaggerband' which comprises of Ricky (bass player) and Jon (drummer) of TMTCH.

    Have a look at http://www.angelfire.com/folk/roaringjack/21c.html [angelfire.com] and http://www.tmtch.net/ [tmtch.net] for more info. I know you can buy the CD at TMTCH.net but resources on the web seem to be very limited so if you find any other links please let me know.

      Swill has a new EP about to come out and there is an offer on www.tmtch.net to buy an advance copy and also get a name check on the 2nd album. there are also some snippets of some of the EP tracks in the news section of tmtch.net. These are sounding great!
