Does anyone have a list of the notable bands that The Wildhearts have toured or played with?

I'm aware of AC/DC, Alice In Chains and The Darkness...

Suicidal Tendencies, 3CR, Steve Vai and of course more recently Muscle Car.

Didn't they do a one off show in London once with Pantera @ The Astoria in 95?

What!? How can you possibly say that about that bloke from Candy Flip's indelible imprint on the UK's musical landscape. Image

Though I dig me some Love/Hate... this is what I was hoping not to see. At one of the other boards I post at, someone lumped the Wildhearts in with the washed up 80's hair metal scene and I was hoping to argue with a list of bands that would be devoid of stuff like that.

and,,ahem.. Eureka Machines.

oh, and anyone remember 'Splitpigs'? were they a real band?

suppose Terrorvision + Hanoi Rocks + the Scarborough line-up counts too.

I really want to say the Manics, but I have a feeling I'm just mixing up memories in my head.

i'm sure its true - probably '92 - I think they did a tour or at least a few gigs with the Manics and (I think) Compulsion. ?

To be fair, it was 1992. Love/Hate were pretty popular in the UK around the Wasted In America time (They presented an episode of Raw Power, such was their fame... or something). It was a pretty good tour to start getting exposure on, I'd have thought - especially considering they hadn't released anything at that point. The tour was March, Mondo... came out in April.
