One Step Behind - The Masters of Madness listings

Formed in 1993, the band achieved widespread recognition in an unusually short time, playing venues the length and breadth of Britain, Europeand beyond. They strive to match every detail of the original band, both musically and in appearance. Like Madness, One Step Behind is well known for their on-stage antics with which they build up an authentic 'Nutty' atmosphere. Members of Madness have joined the One Step boys on stage on a number of occasions. Sax player Lee Thompson commented the band were brilliant and were single handily keeping the good ship Madness afloat. Drummer Dan Woody Woodgate joined the band on stage for One Step Beyond and told the boys he thought they were amazing. That's exactly what we used to be like - you've got it to a tee! he said. Perhaps the greatest tribute came from Suggs himself. He walked up to the microphone and said By the way, we're Madness not One Step Behind! Fine praise indeed!
