High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! Waiting for the Floods is the first and only full-length album released by British rock band The Armoury Show, and frontman Richard Jobson's last known venture in music, other than his brief reunion with The Skids in the early 2000s. Although Waiting for the Floods was well-received by critics, it was a commercial failure and led to the dissolution of the band, with guitarist John McGeoch and drummer John Doyle separating in 1987 and the definitive end in 1988 when Jobson and bass guitarist Russell Webb decided to become solo artists.
