- Big_Self abstract "Big Self are a Northern Irish rock band who formed in 1980. Their lineup consisted of Bernard Tohill on guitars and vocals, Jim Nicholl on guitars, Pat Mo on bass and vocals and Michael Morris on drums. During the early to mid-late 80's the band were highly praised especially in the UK. However, the band's commercial success never matched their critical success, and they disbanded in 1986. During their career they played at several noted events including Self Aid and recorded BBC sessions for John Peel and Kid Jensen. Their single Ghostshirts was featured as the theme song to Dave Fanning's RTE TV show Visual Eyes that aimed to present an entertaining and informative behind the scenes look at the world of popular culture. In 1983, they moved to London hoping to improve their prospects of success, returning to Ireland in the winter of '83/'84 to record their debut album, Stateless, with Richard Mainwaring producing. The first single from the album, Ghostshirts, was critically acclaimed by all the leading music press, including NME, Melody Maker and Sounds; but the 18-month delay in releasing their album didn't help. The line-up expanded to a six-piece with the addition of Owen Howell (previously drummer with Belfast band Stage B) on percussion, but then drummer Michael Morris returned to live in Belfast, and soon after saxophonist Gordy Blair left to join Australian band Dave Graney and the Rattlesnakes. Big Self's final gig was as a four-piece at the Irish concert Self Aid, where they shared the stage with U2 and Van Morrison, Elvis Costello, and the Pogues.".
