Ex-Lemonheads founding member and songwriter Ben Deily parted ways with Dando et al in 1989, and pursued a career in advertising. He formed the band pods in the early '90s, and then Varsity Drag in the mid '00s.

After releasing their first album on Boss Tuneage Records, they toured Europe in 2007 and I caught em in Cambridge and they were great, pleasing the crowd with both new stuff from their album at the time, and old material from Deily's previous projects. Live albums can be hit or miss, but this one is pretty decent, and gives a good idea as to what a show on that tour was like. Plus it was co-produced by label owner Aston, so it seems an appropriate post to continue commemorating his label's 30th birthday! 𝗦𝘁𝗿𝗲𝗮𝗺 𝗼𝗿 𝗗𝗼𝘄𝗻𝗹𝗼𝗮𝗱 𝗳𝗼𝗿 𝗙𝗿𝗲𝗲 / 𝗡𝗮𝗺𝗲 𝗬𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝗣𝗿𝗶𝗰𝗲 𝗳𝗿𝗼𝗺:
