Here's an interesting interview with Dave Maloney, of the Vipers. He was in the Rats before the became famous and successful. Says that Simon and his girlfriend (Simon's girlfriend) had doubts about the Rats ability to succeed and so thought of forming a cabaret act. Luckily Simon got back into the Rats and the rest is history.

Dave Maloney went on to form/join the Vipers and indeed toured with the Rats. He tells of seeing the Evening Press headline 'Rats sign for a million pounds' (no doubt classic Geldof/BP Fallon  hype) and perhaps feeling a bit sad that he did not get the gig full time.Comes across as a nice, unassuming guy.
