what happened next
The Undertones Internal problems led to the band ultimately breaking up. Feargal Sharkey had solo success including the No 1 A Good Heart and got into radio production and became a bigwig in the Radio Authority. The band reformed in 1999 and continue to exist with the original line up, minus Sharkey. 

As for The Knack...remember My Sharona? Thought so. Voted best support band of 1979 in the Friars members poll. Doug Fieger passed away in 2010

The Chords lasted till 1981 and the original line up reformed for a 2010 tour. They had a hit with Maybe Tomorrow in early 1980
