The Hosemen, (full name The Four Hosemen With The Pork Lips) was formed from members of The 11th International Dental Congress and the drummer from Suiciadal Supermarket Trolleys back in 1990. After playing with out a firm name for 18 months, (names were decided on the night by the bad members present) the Hosemen adopted its name. Its core members were Steve Mcgarrett, guitar and vocals, Jerome J. Jerome, drums and driving and The Pool Cleaner, Bass and vocals. Other members included The Lightning Jack Corrobie, guitar and vocals, 12 gage Hacker, guitar, Tall Paul, vocals and mayhem, John Shilts Downey, vocals,(ex Dental congress drummer) and the mysterious fifth Hosemen Frederico Felletio(ex 3 Mustapha 3), filmmaker, DJ(Trouble fuk) guru,vibes man and ruhm drinker. Active on the free fesitval and Londo squat scene through the early 90s, their last gig was in Lille in 1997 at an Anarchist festival. The band broke up with Steve cutting off his fingers with an electric saw, The pool cleaner retiring to Essex and J.J.J. having an unexpected vacation at the tax payers expense. Talk of a reunion is always bubbling under the surface but no firm evidence exists to date. The main influences were punk and the live surf set of JON AND THE NIGHTRIDERS. The ban members hailed from London, Yorkshire, Corsica, Holland, Bahrain and Australia. Two live films exist of the Hosemen in action on you tue. One is called ROMANS IN BRITAIN parts 1-9 and 5 GO MAD IN CORNWALL parts 1-3. All filmed by Frederico Felletio.
