If you all are talking about the SF band Petrol, I think they
broke up and changed their name to The Aktion...but
again maybe not. If'd be curious to know if they are
back in the UK now. Petrol shows in the Bay Area were
notorious for drunken, riotous rock n roll antics. The singer
Graham incited many a mini-riot and ultimately got them banned
from alot of clubs. They had a real "garage-y" vibe w/ a distinct
60's (Faces, Who, Kinks, etc..) kind of British Invasion flair.

> I was on vacation in Dublin in 2001 and was taking a bath (too much info I
know) when I heard a band come on the TV.  They were a local band called
Patrol and they sung a song called Helena's Star.  I've done every websearch
imaginable and can't find their cd.  Apparently they were picked up by WB
there, but nothing.  The only link is the show they were on.
