Glam Chops mini-tour. Bringing the glam to the provinces







And did i mention the dancing girls?


Glam Chops are a stage-full of catsuit wearing 'hey'-ing chaps stomp-rocking their glitter-pop hearts out with the accompaniement of all-girl dance-troupe The Panther Girls in shiny tights and high kicks. It's kinda silly but then what glam band wasn't?
In Cardiff GC are warned to take their face-paint off before they hit the town - Cardiff doesn't like that sort of thing apparently (well not outside the confines of the venue anyway) - Cardiff is full of the nicest but also the maddest people. It's sort of like bedlam but only for insane cutie-pop fans.
In Bath Eddie Chop is born across the dance-floor by enthusiastic glam fans (until they drop him on his arse cos they are indie weedlings too). Glam Chops also record their extra-special version of Born In The USA sadly no longer called Born In The UK Hey due to Brucie baby not being a fan of having his lyrics messed with. The Big Wet. More on the prog-glam epic Tarzan's glam-rock adventure later.
In London it's another Guided Missile special with almost a deliberately mentalist bill featuring non-funny funny-man Ted Chippington, Brighton electro-slinky favourites Shrag and of course GC again.
A Panther Girl has persuaded Arec Chop that the best face paint for him will be a big dinner plate supplemented by knife and fork on his forehead. It does look rather special!
