On 14 February 1993, Huggy Bear performed “Her Jazz” on the British television programme, The Word . After their set, the band stayed in the studio to watch a report on two American models who called themselves ” the Barbi Twins “. Huggy Bear and their fans became upset at this and started shouting at the show’s presenter Terry Christian . They were ejected from the studio, and a spokesperson for The Word later claimed that one of the band’s friends had “bit the face of a member of our production team.” Future Goldblade frontman and editor of music blog Louderthanwar, John Robb was with the band in the studio and said no-one got bitten and the security was heavy-handed and had to be calmed down. The performance was given a Melody Maker cover story, the event being compared to the Sex Pistols ‘ Bill Grundy incident.
