Did you see the story in the newspaper
Posted by Martin Law (62.30.0.2) on June 20, 2002 at 20:36:26:
I know this is old news, but... Praying Mantis were in the national press back in March. In The Sun no less!!! (for those of you not familiar, this is a cheap and nasty tabloid paper with pictures of naked women plastered all the way through it and lots of crappy stories about celebrities eating hamsters and stuff!).
Anyway it was about rock stars from the eighties and what they are doing now and included Diamond Head, Tank, Tygers of Pan Tang among others. It included a short interview with Tino and what they used to do and what they do now as well as a picture of Tino.
I just thought I'd mention it as it's rare to hear anything about the band, especially in the newspapers, and I only saw it as I was throwing out some old newspapers at work.
