Fact #170972

When:

Short story:

The Jam begin a British tour in Sheffield, England, UK, Europe, supported by The Piranhas.

Full article:

Phil Collis (saxophonist, The Piranhas) : That was actually a low-point for the Piranhas, being support-band for The Jam on a British tour. We'd never supported anyone before and we should have kept it that way - if I'd wanted to join the army I'd have joined the fucking army. There would have been fewer miserable bastards to deal with, and I'd have got fed ocasionally. As it was I had to live off the money those Jam-fan-wankers threw at us - those fifty-pence pieces came in handy, thanks.
