Notes :
This was the 3d record by Nemo (check the classic debut album!) and the
first one not to have the original line-up. Aldo had come to play extra guitars
and help out on the songs but he decided to quit after a while and as Metal
Molly had just split and I was loitering around, they asked if I wanted to

Mitsoobishy Jacson line-up one year later. Nemo hasn't split officially, it's
just in the freezer for 'an undefined period of time' just like Metal Molly.
We played quite a lot of shows and released the radio-friendly 'Starsign and 'Girlfeel' as singles'. Nice times were had by all.
