Fidel's hero would probably be someone like Joe Meek, who's HAUNTED house/home studio at 304 holloway road he lived in for 8 months.

   About APPLICANTS
Applicants are the most famous and best bloodbeat / pop and roll / electro / punk / indie / chiphop / 8-bit / smashTV / splattcore band of all time!

With members cathching the bus from London, Singapore and Wolverhampton, their debut CD "Life in the Bus Lane" caused a sensation along with thier chaotic live shows - playing on bills with the Retro Spankees, Polysics, Sportsday Megaphone, Untitled Muscial Project, Napoleon IIIrd, Bearsuit and the $hit - amongst many others!

In 2009 the group were joined by Adam Boult on Drums. The group will be recording again in the Summer.

"A band so riotus, so punk rock and so endearing as to be impossible... In an alternative universe Applicants would be playing Wembley and Muse playing The Dublin Castle... The most startling thing about these songs is that despite their anarchic jollity, you could imagine any one of them played on Radio 1 - even in the daytime!"

ARTROCKER

"where Atari Teenage Riot battles with ‘Into The Groove’-era Madonna in a world-pulverising showdown, replete with space-age weaponry and the inevitable plot-twist ending to leave you reeling".

DROWNED IN SOUND

"The intercontinental Applicants... parallel universe popstars with a fondness for fake blood and liver-destroying quantities of booze, and that's just on the bus to the the gig. Bring your own serviettes - it's going to get messy".

Oh, I noticed that you played on Halloween day!  How was it?  Did you have a good weekend?  I hope so.  I had to work for the weekend, so I didn't do anything special.
I had my day off today, so I could relax.

Have a nice day tomorrow.

Also yes, Spiderman Pinball is THE place to be. Upset that we missed you to be honest if you were in our neck of the woods. Disappointment.
