Not the Biography of Jon Attfield – Guitar<\/h2>\n
\"Complete<\/a>

Complete with hibernating weasal.<\/p><\/div>\n

Due to the lack of biography from young Mr Attfield, the following has mysteriously appeared in its place. I have allowed this to happen due to the fact that Jon was missing out on having his photo here. Moo ha ha.<\/p>\n

1990 to 1994 – Grimethorpe Colliery Calypso Steel Thrash Silver Orchestra<\/h3>\n

Little is known of Jon in his pre Shun days. To further cloud affairs, little of what is actually known is printable. Suffice to say that it involves a heavy pay off, good pension, a lot of black faces and Jon playing with people who were ‘on the fiddle’. (Jon was on the cello).<\/p>\n

Members<\/h4>\n

Jon Attfield – Instrumentation of different types<\/p>\n

Most notable achievement – Learned how to handle ‘ Miners ‘.<\/p>\n

1994 to 1997 – Shun<\/h3>\n

Leaving any thoughts of Littlewoods catalogue modelling far behind, Jon joined Shun. To this day, Jon still has to deal with a large number of cards from female admirers who just want one more signed copy of page 324 – men’s baggy Y-fronts Summer 1987. (Best place to find a copy is probably under Lady Thatcher’s side of the bed).<\/p>\n

Members<\/h4>\n

Jon Attfield – rhythm guitar & bass guitar
\nKen Bearman – vocals, 12 string acoustic guitar
\nAndy Hubble – drums.
\nDan Rogers – lead guitar
\nBen Holness and numerous others – bass guitar<\/p>\n

Most notable achievement – Number one hit single “Fluff My Fufu Young Mighty Monkey (Ayia Napa Remix)”.<\/p>\n

1998 to 2004 – Love Commandos (Mk 3)<\/h3>\n

Having already lost all credibility, Jon joined the Salvation Army. After being asked to leave on the grounds that he couldn’t tune his tambourine to G sharp as required for his role in “Blood & Fire – The Topless Musical”, Jon joined what he thought was a rival group – the Love Commandos. How wrong could one man be.<\/p>\n

Members<\/h4>\n

Jon Attfield – guitar
\nRob Bates – keyboard, guitar, backing vocals
\nKen Bearman – bass, backing vocals
\nNeil Horsburgh – vocals
\nAndy Hubble – drums.<\/p>\n

Most notable achievement – Once moved forward while playing a guitar solo.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
