They got very very little money from the band. Tam Paton either nicked the cash or the companies saw them off as they did not get rich.

One was locked up as stated... It's a shame for the other members to be tainted by it.

The same applies to the Glitter band but then did they never know what he was up to?

They SHOULD have been one of the richest bands ever, but thanks to cheating record labels that they're still trying to sue and a really bad manager....... they're one of the poorest.

Personally I think they've left it too long. Most their old audience is either good to be too ashamed to go along with, dead,grew up ( Just plain old ! )

Imagine being in a crowd where everyone is suffering from arthritis.

I'm sure there were allegations against Alan Longmuir as well and some sordid stories about the one that replaced him too

Your right. He allegedly was in possession of child porn and done some community service.

They were a young band who sold Millions of records with little or no return and were ripped off by a manager who was far from squeaky clean on many counts !

And YES - One of the band was found with illegal stuff on PC - The rest of the band were probably turned over many times by their manager !!!!

I would say unlike most reinvented bands (who lost it all through sex drugs and R&R) - the Rollers NEVER ad it in the 1st instance as they were getting shafted from Day One !!

We will be at he Gig !!
