[kj] support bands good or bad?

[Termite]

Best support slots as far as I am concerned for KJ had to have been (although I am very biased) The Chameleons (Altho the Joke soon pissed them off from touring with them) & Cocteau Twins (Brixton Academy)...I did like Skunk Anansie opening for KJ too.

I think its difficult finding suitable opening bands for KJ to be honest, to my ears though I think The Chameleons were a perfect choice (more harmoneous, but same tension and angst), would have thought that Kitchens Of Distinction would have been a good opener too for the Joke, and possibly even at least in the early days The Verve, or as they were better known back then Verve.

          somewhere in the back of my addled brain a voice says what about  voice of the beehive at manchester polytechnic in 81 or 82????? if they ever did, and i.m not sure, bue Red Beat or Ski Patrol would've been who i'd most liked to.......afraid i was too focussed on the bar before any joke gig to even notice!!
