Does know how often the mats played in Britain? I know there was a European tour to support "Tim". If anyone knows where there is a full gig list i'd like to see it. Also, is there anywhere on the web where i could find UK articles on the band from NME, Melody Maker, Sounds etc?

I know they at least played Dingwall's in either 85 or 86, I have that on tape and I'm about 70% sure it was their first show in the UK. k. |

I saw the Mats 2 nights in a row at the Marquee in London back in March 1991 (15th and 16th). Great shows; Absolutely rocked. They cost me 6 quid each night. Winona was at one of the shows. Met Tommy, slim and steve foley before the show at some pub, Met Paul after show; very nice. I travelled to Brixton academy that day and scalped my Jane's Addiction tix for that same night. (they were at their peak then!). I was in London for the semester abroad; very lucky to catch the band on their last tour. I've got the melody makers/NMEs w/the subsequent reviews.
