TCTC: Poorly Cooper Trooper

by Sean Adams [Edit this content] ▾ 6 comments 12:23 January 4th, 2003

One of the coopers has been in hospital over xmas

Bassist, occasional dis-writer (profile) and all-round cool-bloke, from The Cooper Temple Clause, Didz Hammond, has just left hospital.

We spoke to drummerman Jon, who said, "He's pretty ill, been in hospital all over christmas and new year. We are back in the studio from the sixth!" Didz was suffering from a ruptured appendix.

We'll be joining the Coopers in the studio to bring you an indepth interview with the most exciting band of 2002 and to find out what they're upto in 2003 and what the 2nd album is like. If you have any questions for the interview, mail them to tctc@drownedinsound.com

The Coopers have one show lined-up at the London Astoria on February 6th with Ladytron, Ikara Colt and The Raveonettes

Re: TCTC: Poorly Cooper Trooper

Hmm. Hope he gets better soon, but i question the 'nice guy' comment.

I know of at least two people who have played backing instruments with TCTC and they both said the whole bands were a bunch of...****.

They offered some cocaine. rock n roll indeed.
