I'm liking the turn this thread is taking.

It's because of that performance that I'm glad that Big Black pissed on the Mission's amps and stole their beer at a Belgian rock festival.

They're like a pretentious version of The Dogs D'Amour with more echo, on that video. Yeah, it's awful.

i loved the way mission fans had this way of lifting their hands aloft whenever the chorus came in.

And the way their fans would chuck around glittery crap, and generally act like they were at some godawful New Age "empowerment" class. Thank Christ for the lumpenness of Slayer etc.

all i know about this band is that they're a shitty dance band and the only hit i've ever heard is a cover of take me out with fewer words

It's interesting that you say that, Melly, because every time I think of their fans (which is almost never), I imagine them all living somewhere near Stonehenge.

If memory serves, I think the Mission's fans were known as Eskimoes. I like the Stonehenge idea - I imagine the Mission's fans all living in teepees, drinking Blue Nun wine and playing bongoes.
