Towers of London

Sign in to disble this ad
I was watching TV a couple of weeks ago, and I happened to have come across a video for a song called "Air Guitar" by Towers of London. I wasent really watching it properly, because i had never actually heard of towers of london before(apart from the name)


so today, im on wiki looking up the band, and they active from 2004-now?

with a name like towers of london i always assumed they were some sort 70s punk band like the sex pistols. and I also assumed that half of the had died from something drug related.


now...I feel really stupid


anyone else have a similar experience?

Seriously - "Towers of London" is a song by Andy Partridge of XTC - I think it was a single...?
