Yeah, they definitely played the Dive at least once.  I'm fairly sure it 
was sometime around Labor Day weekend of '85, although I could be wrong 
on that.

I'm pretty sure the only constant in the band was leader Mick Divvens.  
Drummer Johnny Bernardo also played with the (group called) Lyres.

You can read an article / interview in Noise For Heroes from '91 at

I really loved a few of their records.  A few favorite songs included 
"Beg", "Jungle Boy", and "Goin' Too Far".  Actually, I think that last 
was my #1 pick.
