REASONS TO GO SEE

1...... 9

1 They love numbers more than Carol Vorderman does Not content With their numerical moniker. the band's latest single is called ‘59'. a slice of summery pop harmonies released on Rough Trade Records. the label that signed the weegie trio after their 31th gig.

2 They can turn a bus journey into a sociological study A reliable source says that ‘59‘ eulogises the 59 bus in Pollokshields. ‘which comes approximately once per lifetime and goes from Narnia to Brigadoon via Pollokshietds'. Singer Michael McGaughrin explains: 'It's the only bus you want to get on in Pollokshietds. even if it's going in the wrong direction. The song's about me taking this bus and checking out the girls . . . with gammy eyes.“

3 They get their inspiration from unusual sources Their new album Kicks references Mongolian warlords. bears. .Jan Vennegoor of Hesselink. Baader- Meinhoff and Scientology. But most of the songs are about ex. current. future and fictional girlfriends.

4 They’re fearless rhymers ‘The Box' off the new album follows the line 'back in your box' with “because that's the place I keep my pants and socks‘.

5 They’re cosmically minded MCGaughrin is a Scorpio. Fellow band members Jackie McKeown and Dino Bardot are an Aquarius and a Taurus respectively.
