Debbie, There's little shame attached to being a fan of Menswear. I have a copy of their album. They are, I suppose amongst the bands which promised much and sadly failed to deliver. The same can be said for Flowered Up I suppose. Menswear's 'Daydreamer' was a superb record, reminiscent of Wire and early XTC. The follow up singles, quite frankly, weren't. Flowered Up did 'It's On' brilliant and a lot of rubbish that ended up on 'A Life with Brian' though they did redeem themselves with the epic 'Weekender' which I will always associate with a night hike from Bristol to Bath made just after my finals in '92. I do have quite acute musical association of this kind, but then I suppose anyone would remember the song they were singing in the pitch black of a curved railway tunnel at 3 in the morning.....
