 One night on the tour (3 September) would see a strange hybrid band take the stage at Burberry's Birmingham when a local, third on the bill act failed to show.Inspiral's roadie at the time was Noel Gallagher and he performed a few impromptu jams and Beatles covers on guitar together with Inspiral Craig on drums, Bridewell Mick on vocals, Bridewell Sean on guitar and Bridewell sound engineer and manager Alaric Neville on bass, all to a handful of disinterested punters.The urgent need for a release to go with the tour had led to the band's manager, along with a businessman-fan Dave Bell, to fund their first EP, "Just Good Friends", released on their own Stolen Records in the Autumn of 1989.
