Glange Fever

As it happens from time to time, I was revisiting Supergrass and then following that down the rabbit hole to drummer Danny Goffey's underrated side tangent Vangoffey while reading Wikipedia. As you do. There's a little bit in there about a period in 2007-2008 where Goffey and singer Gaz Coomes go off on their own tour:
Never seen it so I am not sure I am vouching for it but, at the very least, whenever you're reading this - use it as an opportunity to revisit Supergrass and Vangoffey.
In 2007 and 2008, while Supergrass bandmate Mick Quinn was suffering from broken heel and vertebrae, Danny and Gaz Coombes went on a short tour of the country playing at small venues as the Diamond Hoo Ha Men. The tour was captured on film for a Rockumentary called Glange Fever, released in 2008.I knew Diamond Hoo Ha was the name of a Supergrass album but had never heard of them touring in such a way. And I'd certainly never heard of, or seen, the Glange Fever documentary. Fortunately, someone has been kind enough to put it on YouTube.
