I have a question I'd like answered. In the pic up there with Carrie Melbourne etc...well, those guys are the ones whos played live with Jas, right? What happened to the guys in the 1995 promo picture who also, I think, appear in the unedited video for Spaceman? Who played live with him in 1998? Did anyone? Did they ever play a live gig in 1998/99? What was the last known BZ live show?

I think i know what you mean... the original band members that played with jas in the spaceman song were sacked due to their attitudes to women. if you go to the top of the pops website and search babylon zoo you can read about it there, after that happend the others were put in as standins and the attention focused more on jas as the babylon zoo icon

Sorry to be pedantic but my version of I'm Cracking Up I Need A Pill was just me, not Parasite cos Will didn't do anything.
So the answer is Adam Scanlon.
