..education..

One of the best things about the web in relation to music is the sharing of info and knowledge about bands...case in point...Rich Kids.

I'd heard of them and knew that Glen Matlock, the first bassist for the Sex Pistols, was a member (founder?)...but check out who's singing and playing guitar:



That's right...it's Midge Ure...later to go on to Visage and Ultravox. Something tells me I had heard this a long time ago...oh well.

Found via the ever prolific Boing Boing...

Midge Ure also played guitar in Thin Lizzy for awhile. Weird, huh? Esp. since Ultravox rocked so much harder BEFORE he joined them.

I had no idea...did he actually record with them? What a strange career he's had.

After a brief bit of research, seems like he only toured with them right before joining Ultravox. Strange!
