Came across them on youtube playing 'Ghost Riders in the Sky' and some other stuff, and also a podcast with Glenn Tilbrook playing along and chatting with them. Anyone seen them live at all ?

    Fantastic. Not seen them live but love the Anarchy in the Ukelele album.

    Seen them twice live at corporate functions - very funny live, particularly them performing Miss Dy-Na-Mi-Tee and Hard to Handle.

    My cousin Joesph used to play with them but he got in lots of bother in hotels etc when they toured so sadly they decided to Ban Jo......

    Believe they clean windows when they aren't leaning on a lamp post.

    Saw them many years ago at the Grosvenor House for a corporate event. Was hosting a table and had my back to the stage, so didn't see them setting up and then they launched into Teenage Kicks. Thought they were murdering one of my favourite songs until I stopped being precious and got into it.

    Miss Dynami-t-e was great and they then did a Russian Cossack version of Leaning on a Lamppost renaming it Lenin on a Lamppost. Absolutely in tears of laughter by the end of the set. A great night.
