What if The Radiators signed to Stiff as opposed to Chiswick, does one assume the outcome might have been completely different?
Stiff: Ian Dury / Lene Lovich / Elvis Costello etc
Chiswick: The d**ned / Motorhead etc
Any views?

Interesting thought Frank. There are so many What if's to mention. What if Million Dollar Hero had been available in the shops when it was getting massive airplay on the Beeb, etc. etc. I have no regrets really, i take great pride in the fact that after all these years people are still interested in us. what do you think? would it be the same if we ended up headlining (God forbid) stadiums

Glad to hear the 'no regrets' response. No I am not specifically talking about stadium dinosaurs, but many bands from before / during and after that era still tour the globe and release good new material. From Iggy Pop - SLF - The d**ned - Motorhead (two previous label mates), its just a pity that the homegrown innovators did not survive 'the business'. I overheard a conversation prior to you landing on stage at Oxegen, a bunch of guys (circa 20 years of age) were saying "i heard from my brother they were excellent, they were the Irish Pistols" etc etc. All I am saying is that its a d**n shame, but the bottom-line is that you guys are back and I look forward to seeing you again and hearing new material.
Rock on!
