BECOMING LESS LIKE ALFIE

After a fairly short journey from Badly Drawn Boy's backline to indie band of some distinction ("not much" is still "some", remember), Alfie are calling it a day. Lee Gorton, the singer, announced it:

"So this dream is finally over! Some people think we've been milking it too long anyway but (and call me a fool all you like, many have before), I thought there was good reason to stick it out. Mostly 'cause i thought we were just on the edge of maturing into the really great band i always thought we could one day become...Things may well have worked out differently in other circumstances but there's no blame necessary."
