I saw this band back in about 1996 in Birmingham (thats UK not USA).I can't remember a Ric being used back then but I remember another incident.
These guys used to have a notorious road crew called 'The Wrecking Crew'.Anyhow,I was abit worse for wear due to alchohol and I threw a half can of lager at the stage.Anyway next thing I remember is two beefy looking blokes coming up to me and giving me some verbal (insults) and then headbutting me!
Thankfully I stayed upright as I was too drunk to feel the pain but I did learn my lesson!

Crikey, that brings back memories! Not that I ever saw them live, but there used to be a load of psychobillys used to hang around all our art college do's; some were pretty scary guys, and this from someone who's kind of used to scary guys. I actually rather liked the Meteors stuff I heard; didn't know a Ric was involved though!
