In their defence they have never left me in a Europen city with no gig
to go to due to a very late cancellation as one particular band
have...more than once.

Was browsing through the Chameleons site and came across this anecdote
of the Joke... anyone familiar with this? 

On a note about the song Paper Tigers, it reads:

Notes by Mark - During our early touring, back in the days when we had
'an agent' (gasp!!) we found ourselves, courtesy of 'Wasted Talent' down
to support Killing Joke in Leicester. We arrived on time ready to sound
check. KJ arrived four and a half hours late and we couldn't check until
they had, very boring but no problem. That is until we started our sound
check. I plugged my bass in, played a few notes to make sure everything
was working and the sound guy shouted "ok, good, now guitar." I started
laughing and looked at Dave and he did the same thing, struck a single
chord to make sure the leads were working and we got another "great,
thanks" from the sound engineer. We started shouting at them that we
wanted a proper sound-check, not a line check and they told us that
there just wasn't time due to the lateness of Killing Joke's arrival.
Things escalated and, noticing the band at the side of the stage, drawn
by the commotion, Dave and I unstrapped our guitars and ran at them.
Fortunately for them their crew managed to stop us before we got to
them. We told them all to fuck off and blew out the gig. Later a
spokesman for the band came over and apologised and hoped we'd play the
rest of the gigs with them but we told them were to go. Paper Tigers
came from that basically.
