he music of Geldof and the Rats has long gone unappreciated in the U.S. The lack of availability of the bands music is unexcusable. Has "In the Long Grass"...
I couldn't believe there was really a Boomtown Rats club! And, sadly, it doesn't surprise me that there are only 5 members, lol. Come on people!!! Let's get...

Us new (living) memebers went out to find victims (at least that's what happened in one case...waves to Quad).Debs and I will keep the club breathing, until...
Ah yes...I too had to recruit, and eventually "sbodoh" will post here. The 9 of us...or at least the 4 of us known to be alive will unite and take the Rats...
debsmad, (and everyone else), do you get M2? I've seen Rat videos on there occasionally, and they often play them in twos. Anyway, they take requests ...
I watch it when I get time, but it's only on part-time around here. I'll definately email them if you post the addy! If nothing else maybe someone can get the...

Does anyone have any of the Rats videos or live performances on tape? I've ONLY seen them at Live Aid, and have only seen the Mondays video and saw part of the...
Deb, I have Live Aid on video, but it is a terrible copy, as I got it from a guy, who got it from a guy, and so on, and so on, etc. Anyway, the sound quality...
I have an excellent copy of the Rats at Live Aid!<br>Mine is from when I originally recorded it Live Aid day. The mic does cut out in Rat Trap...it's not just ...
Check out the tape trading page at <a href=http://www.boomtownrats.com. target=new>http://www.boomtownrats.com.</a> Steve doesn't have any videos...but he does...
Cool, tapes would be better than nothing. I knew I should have switched to CD earlier. Just didn't think that a group like the Rats would ever be out of print....
Okay, I'm going to confess. I found this club a month ago, but only joined after debsmad did. The reason is because I never join a dead club. I have tried ...
