I think so as Thunder but some are still involved in music, Luke has a new band out called The Union. Its on facebook and myspace IIRC.

Are Thunder definitely finito?

Yeah which is a pity as they were probably the second best live band I ever saw. They finally split because they simply could not make a living from touring and their songs never ever got played on mainstream radio.

Chris Evans played On The Radio because one of his team met Thunder at a charity gig and thought they were really decent people. Trouble is, Chris played the version which included the line fuck you.

Like Ice states, Luke Morley has formed a new band called The Union. Danny Bowes is returning to the stage to help out a mate so there is some hope of a one off gig. Well we can but dream.

Fuck you?? I mean surely there is worse said in rap music!
I really wish Thunder hit it big time. They worked their asses of and deserved so much more. They are great guys too, have you ever met them JLP?

No. Applied a couple of times for the meet and greet things they did post gigs but were never succesful.

Apparently they are great, down to earth guys. The poster known as Roger Meadows Tailor was lucky enough to meet them.
I haven't heard much about Danny, what exactly is he doing these days?

as far as i know he is trying his hand as a promoter.

That is great IMO I hope he suceeds with it.

I wish I could post vids and links by Thunder like I did on the old board.
