Return of Ned's Atomic Dustbin
When Jonn Penney played for the first time in Ned's Atomic Dustbin, he didn't for a moment think the band would still be filling concert halls 21 years later.

When Jonn Penney played for the first time in Ned's Atomic Dustbin, he didn't for a moment think the band would still be filling concert halls 21 years later.
"We didn't know what we'd be doing 21 minutes later," he laughs.
But, remarkably, Ned's Atomic Dustbin remain a popular attraction. On May 23, they'll play Wolverhampton's Wulfrun Hall, the venue they first played
19 years ago and the place that Jonn now calls "The Office".
He works there, after all, as a press and promotions officer, making sure gigs by other bands sell out.
The Ned's played their first rehearsal on November 8, 1987, the date of guitarist Rat's birthday. They ascended the rock 'n'roll ladder in spectacular fashion, headlining festivals, enjoying a run of chart hits, playing to fans around the world and creating a unique twin-bass-no-nonsense-Black Country-adrenaline-fuelled-indie-rock-beast-of-a-band before deciding to quit in 1995.
