About the reunion

Original line-up: The band is reuniting with all four original members: Martin Rossiter (vocals), Matt James (drums), Steve Mason (guitars), and Kevin Miles (bass).

"Epic show": According to frontman Martin Rossiter, the band plans to play a set of about 25 songs, including deep cuts, and anticipates a two-hour performance.

Before the split in 2004, frontman Martin Rossiter reflected on the band's longevity and their devoted fans, offering this sardonic and appreciative farewell:

"I think it's very difficult to thank someone or thank a group of people without sounding insincere... Obviously, we're grateful for their investing in the band over the years. Yeah, thank you for sticking with us for all these years... The whole point of signing a record deal was to get a fanbase... which is thankfully what you guys do for us. So thanks... you know cheese have more sex.
