TISM Now a Smaller Band... :-(

[maxcelcat]

Remember that band called TISM? Who I followed around for many, many years earlier this century?

Well, it's my sad duty to report that one their guitarists, who delighted in the name Token Blackman (previously Tony Coitis!) died a day or so ago.

His real name was James Paull, also known as Jock. My mate who know him got a bit confused, since the other guitarist in TISM delights in the name Jock Cheese - who is alive and well!

There were a number of notices in today papers, including one from his fans...

I'm trying to think back if I ever met him, I suspect not, although I think he was in a group of people I got chatting to at a TISM gig at the Palace years ago.

oh that is sad. I'll always remember them for asking who put Sophie Lee in Sophie Lee's body.

Ah....

Now THAT was a song. They don't make them like that any more...

I remember them partly demolishing the Punters Club about two weeks before it closed!!!
