    A bit of a one hit wonder, but they had a nice sound. RIP

    I guess everyone has their own definition of a one hit wonder I personally loved their debut album " PLAY DEEP " not a bad song on the whole album imo

    Seen the Outfield in 87' when they opened for Night Ranger... I got a beer and a towel from them, I thought that was pretty damn cool at the time. Rip Sir!

    That's pretty cool! I have a Night Ranger CD in my car stereo as we speak.

    That sucks about John Spinks. Liver cancer is a rough way to go. His suffering is over and I hope he has found peace.

    Aaaand I read that as "a tear in the bowel", which didn't seem too cool to me.
