What a waste
You could have saved us from new romantics grunge and synth pop Sid

Some sad news just came into my email....

RIP Nick Tesco

We are devastated to announce that Nick Tesco, founder member and original lead vocalist of the Camberley punk reggae legends The Members has died after a short illness at the age of 67 in London. Although his health had not been good for a while (he had not performed regularly since 2008) Nick was a fiery commentator on social media and a great writer, broadcaster and journalist.

This was the band that opened punk to me in 1979 with The Sound Of The Suburbs and made me love them through all incarnations to who The Members are today.

Sound of The Suburbs is a great track.
 
I wonder who bought this and who owned it. Sid had no siblings and his mother is long dead and his father abandoned him never to be seen again . I believe his cousin gets all the royalties.

I read Steve Jones' book and he said when the members won the court case against McClaren, Rotten, Jones and Cook received 25% each and Matlock and Sids mum got 12.5% each.
When his mum died royalties went to his mum's sister....she died and went to the sister's daughter..... then she died and it went to some cousin of the daughter....

You most probably did educate a few kids in your neighbourhood mate. Which reminds me, not heard this for a while. Cheers. I'm playing it now. Gotta be careful of the volume though as my next door neighbour knocked on my door 23:30 last night asking if I could turn the telly down. I wouldn't mind but I wasn't listening to music though, and I should have told him I'm a bit mutton Jeff, anyway.

Cheers pal. I deduced you're an SLF fan by your username. I was into them in 78 but didn't get to see them till 1980 at Mcr Apollo, Nobody's Heroes tour. Cracking gig.

Think my first gig was 1981 Go For It your at the Apollo then maybe one more time there. Saw them at the International 2 maybe late 80s. Manic gig. Academy I the 90s with Bruce Foxton on bass. Durham University about 2006. Have you seen Jake Burns recently? Too much pizza and burgers!!

I also went to that gig and another a year or so later. Not seen them since, been meaning to but never got round to it until now. Only scene Jake and the boys on YouTube videos. Looks like he likes his Ulster fry ups: )
