Chris asked 'can you name anyone from 808 State?'...sadly Dave failed then mentioned someone called ...

Well after reading this thread I just like to say a little thing or two........I'm only 25 (most fans on here have known the State since year dot) and I was never old enough at the time to follow bands like 808 State, Orbital, The Shamen and old skool acts.....I only managed to pick up on them at ...
