so far the across-all-sites tally for where JA, Bov and I work is standing at:
a former Velodrome 2000 drummer (late period)
the bassist in the relatively recently revived Mighty Mighty
and at least one Sheffield gigging singer-songwriter
[subject to confirmation] a Pocketbook.

Less twee but for added cred we used to also have Alan Tyler from the Rockingbirds and the bassist(?) from the Teardop Explodes, Troy Tate (ok he worked in one of our admin outposts) |

And do you remember Giles Hedley (clue: bow tie, John Lennon glasses), who is currently "one of Britain’s foremost roots and country blues performers"? He was one of ours.

At my last company we had Maggot from Goldie Lookin' Chain (and celebrity big brother), although he was an IT pensions tester called Pete.

I use to work with a Velodrome2000. Oh, hang on, I used to work for a Velodrome2000 too. Anyway they don't count.
