Fruitbat has released solo material using the name Abdoujaparov; named after his favourite cyclist. Currently he releases albums using the name iDou. Jim Bob is releasing solo material as well with his band called Jim’s Super Stereoworld and has also released material just using the artist name Jim Bob. In 2007, Carter reunited for two “farewell” gigs. The first show announced - taking place on 2 November 2007 at London’s Brixton Academy with support from Sultans of Ping - sold out in five days with little advertising except word of mouth. This sell-out prompted another concert to be arranged, taking place at Glasgow Barrowlands on October 20, 2007. The reunion celebrated twenty years since the band’s foundation and ten years since their split. The gigs were performed as the original two-piece of Fruitbat and Jim Bob, who more or less kept their promise to play “all the hits and all the favourites”. In 2008 two more live dates were announced for Birmingham Academy and London Brixton Academy for 21st and 22nd November 2008…(Jim’s Birthday) |
