Coinciding with the release of their album Fashionably Late, in May 1988 the band embarked on a brief tour of Europe.

The CD version of this album contain two extra tracks, "Your Autumn Eyes" and "(Are You Gonna Be There at The) Love-In".

Not long after their European tour, founding member Kim Kane departed to focus on his other band, Date Bait.

He was replaced by long-time roadie/sound guy/guest vocalist John Hanson until the band's farewell show in December 1990.

In 2006, Last Call Records (run by one of the two founders of New Rose) released a double CD of Live at Last and Fashionably Late.
