OK, so they have some, uh, personality issues, but some of their music is really good--sort of retro and shoegaze. A smattering of Ricks appear in various songs.
Here's a "live" version of Nailing Honey to the Bee with Rick bass and a 620-12 (or is that a 660-12?) not being played but visible about 2:06 into it:

Great band yeah! I heard Anton is really good in 'correcting' his band members...

All the gear in that video is gone now, all stolen while on tour and never recovered. I could be wrong; but I believe them to be Rick-less now, except for a band member named Ricky.

Oh, a less depressing thing about this video: Guitarist Frankie's had a couple Ricks (including a 12 string 360) and so have other members, but the one on the floor in this video was a prop from the tv show. They had a bunch of instruments just laying around as set decoration and if anyone wanted to play them for the taping, they could.

I really liked what I had of them. This is one of the bands that I lost in the Apple laptop crash of 2005. Lost all music that I didn't have on CD. I forgot about a lot of stuff that was lost. I'll have to check them out again, really enjoyed the two albums I had.
