Inner City Unit - Other Activities

Other Activities

Nik Turner started his rhythm and blues and jazz rock outfit Nik Turner's Fantastic Allstars in the late eighties. They eventually released an album Kubanno Kickasso! in 2001.

Dead Fred and Steve Pond went on to play with another ex-Hawkwind man Robert Calvert. Mick Stupp played with many different bands with varying styles, moving from drums to guitar over time.

The Imperial Pompadours were an ICU side project with legendary sleeve designer Barney Bubbles. Bubbles also produced the band's first three album covers.

In the 1980s original guitarist Judge Trev Thoms started a three-piece metal band named Atomgods which, for a while, also featured second ICU guitarist Steve Pond on bass.

Judge Trev Thoms died of pancreatic cancer on December 8, 2010.

Steve Pond, Dead Fred and Mick Stupp still play together in a band called Krankschaft, sometimes joined by Nik Turner and Dave Anderson to perform Inner City Unit songs as a tribute to Judge Trev Thoms.

Famous quotes containing the word activities:

    I am admonished in many ways that time is pushing me inexorably along. I am approaching the threshold of age; in 1977 I shall be 142. This is no time to be flitting about the earth. I must cease from the activities proper to youth and begin to take on the dignities and gravities and inertia proper to that season of honorable senility which is on its way.
    Mark Twain [Samuel Langhorne Clemens] (1835–1910)

    The old, subjective, stagnant, indolent and wretched life for woman has gone. She has as many resources as men, as many activities beckon her on. As large possibilities swell and inspire her heart.
    Anna Julia Cooper (1859–1964)
