I got an email from Dave Howard. Mental!<\/p>\n

He rightly points out that the T&C gig featured him 2nd on the bill and not 3rd. Which is interesting given the Sugarcubes later exposure etc. He also asked me about the Yon Yonson graphic below which I was singularly unhelpful about.<\/p>\n

I originally googled for a copy of the Dave Howard Singers ‘Yon Yonson’ sleeve and found that image instead (alongside the above). A foray into the bowels of google reveals that, before Phil K Dick, Yon may have been an american folk hero for scando-european (?) immigrants. Possibly in silent films, rescuing distressed maidens from ever-nearing buzz saws (in the lumbermill, one has to assume).<\/p>\n
