    He walked off stage after three songs at swn about 8 or 10 years ago. I'd already left after two songs. Very dull.

    Excellent on their day. A bit of a spotty career album-wise. But they bounced with excellent records time after time.

    So how many line-ups of The Fall have there been? The numbers vary from commentator to commentator - and the perennial question is bound to be what do you mean by a line-up? Are we just talking about live performances, or do we include studio and session musicians, and what about one-off appearances? Almost impossible to list - so here's a list of the known band members - the rest you can work out yourself - and below that interviews with ex-members that we have conducted in the past.if we've missed anyone (which is always possible) please let us know.......
