Whatever happened to Gaye Bikers on Acid? I seem to recall reading in the music press about all these record companies clamouring to sign them, then were never heard of again?

@DarkAngel182 I guess they wanted to sign them, until they found out the name of the band !!! What a name to have - "Gaye Bykers On Acid" !!!! I can't see bands now having names such as "Lesbian Cyclists on Marijuana" !!!!

@CSTV228 They're completely different bands - Gaye Bykers on Acid were of an indie rock group, where as Acid Reign were of a thrash metal band !!!
