Well yeah. That's one The Company (and it is widely referred to as such), but I suspect it is not every The Company that Fintan refers to and is not the specific The Company (All Praise The Company) that sends me money every other week.

Hi there, That'd be Seb (not Deb) Holbrook. I know most of the band and have seen them any times. Most notably supprting The Waterboys in 1989.
I've got most (or all) of thieir vinyl. Must mp3 some of them at some point. A great live band.
