The FUX in Nottingham, UK. What a great story...we were to play with PANIC, hailing from Newcastle (of legendary Newcastle Brown Ale fame). We went into town in Nottingham to buy souvenir jerseys, but we didn't like the Nottingham Forest jerseys...too plain. Those red & white striped ones, they were cool looking! So we all got one with THE FUX printed on the back. We decided to impress our Notts & Newcastle hosts by donning them at the last second and just appearing on stage with them. We didn't realize we wearing Sunderland jerseys, Newcastle's most hated and despised rivals!!! They stood up front for the first three songs (tripling the insult) with their backs to us. We were lucky to get this shot on film, that red & yellow isn't an effect, it's the end of the roll.

OK, here's links to some old photos I found of various UK towns and cities (2002) and there's more to come. These are mostly from our third tour there. Directly below are some miscellaneous photos, some from the first FUX UK Tour (2000) and the last romp thru Germany, Czech, some other places (2005). There's more, I'm still uncovering them for scanning
