I hope he won't mind me posting this but our brother Gary Dwyer ~ drummer: 'The Teardrop Explodes', is unwell at the moment but "Rocky" is powering on in his usual manner.
Please send Rocky Love and Light in this fight!
See you soon for a little razz in the motor Gaz!

@JayneMoobs The Royal Court was about half full but still a fantastic live gig

Big mystery why fans abandoned the Teardrops and a solo JC

I always remember him introducing new song Reynard the Fox and saying something like “You’ll all be into this in 6 months

Disappointed watching this 01/10/1981 repeat of Top of the Pops last night

This clip of the group minus Agius and Hammer didn’t make the cut

An arlarse BBC 4 …

Here it is anyway …

No. 8 Everybody Wants to Shag… The Teardrop Explodes, 1990 Fontana/Phonogram. The first Teardrops' album I bought. The lost third album. Teardrops were down to Cope, Dwyer, and Balfe. Cope details the album’s recording in his essential bio Head-On. #cassettes #cassettetapes

Peak Twitter or X for me tonight !

A brief but enlightening chat with a former keyboard player from The Teardrop Explodes, arising from an @nme1980s thread

More significantly he’d be up for a reunion but Ive got to somehow convince main man Julian Cope as it’s his decision

@laurenlaverne @BBC6Music Band names inspired by comics: The Teardrop Explodes came from a Daredevil comic I think. What about Passionate Friend?
