The Chameleons were brilliant - I had the pleasure of seeing them live in
London in 1985. The best band ever to come out of Manchester in my opinion
(well Middleton for those of you who know and love Manchester.) It never
ceases to surprise me what similar tastes we Aeroplanes fans have. My
Musical gods are obviously the Planes, The Church, House of Love,
Chameleons, Paul Weller, Edwyn Collins and Boo Hewerdine
