  The Charlatans emerged from Manchester in the early 90s and quickly became one of the biggest bands on the UK rock scene, with one of the most committed and die-hard fan bases. These fans have stuck by the band through thick and thin, including some extraordinary episodes in the band's fortunes, not least the imprisonment for armed robbery of keyboard player Rob Collins, who on his release from jail was killed in a drink-driving accident. The band's tenacity and persistence in the face of adversity have now been rewarded, they have had two UK number one albums and they are much-lauded in both the USA and Japan.
