band to the sounds of Madness, Bad Manners and Buster
Bloodvessel. Badness adore performing, something
that can be seen in their shows. The fun they have
on stage can be sensed by the audience, leading
to the whole venue leaving at the end of the night
having enjoyed themselves. The band where formed
in July 1994, Badness quickly became one of the
top Ska / 2Tone revival bands in the country. Within
six months the band where selling out various venues

Germany and Spain under their belts and having played
every town & city in the U.K. (well almost!),

"Dance Crazy" days of the late 70s &
early 80s with the No.1 Ska revival act in the UK.

One Step Behind
One Step Behind feels that by replicating one of the
nation's best-loved institutions, they are keeping alive
the spirit that inspired a whole generation, and still
enjoys enormous popularity today. One Step Behind perpetuates
the popularity of the originals, who now rarely appear
in public. One Step Behind were recently featured in an
article in the London Evening Standard (8/7/97) stating
that they were one of the two top tribute bands currently
on the UK circuit. When the real group performed at the
G-MEX in Manchester, Suggs actually walked up to the microphone
and said "By the way, we're MADNESS not One Step
Behind!!", and subsequently in the Melody Maker review
that followed the headline was One Step Behind!!
