<<  The Troggs used to keep "Strange Movies" in their set. I saw them a
 few years ago, and they did it! They did a lot of old stuff  ("Feels Like A
 Woman," "Gonna Make You," "Give It To Me," "I Can't Control Myself", etc.)
 but, thankfully, nothing off of that horrible "Athens Andover" album w/ REM
 (great idea in theory, terrible execution!) . They were pretty cool,
 actually, and "Wild Thing" wasn't ten minutes long. Maybe six. Still too
 long. Reg Presely was hilarious, and he was wearing this sort of mumu thing,
 I kid you not!

They played out here at a fair awhile back as well and what Alan described 
pretty much sums it up. They had a few extras on stage as well, playing 
modern equipment as well. This was a couple of years ago so maybe they've 
left that oldies circuit and will focus on a more intitmate 60's crowd. 
      I'd be curious to see Blues Magoos and the Gants, but will be in London 
for Wild Weekend and the Utrecht record fair.     Tony
