live review - starka, motherwell Thu June 14th 2002

...'banter' betwixt group and fans is integral to the show. Penelope Collegefriend enters the crowd a mere 10 seconds into 'The Strang' and remonstrates "this is supposed to be poignant!" to the chatterers during one of their piano interludes, before they explode into the massive punk-prog hybrid of 'Parade'. Unfortunately equipment and ultimately their set begin to fall apart, meaning that only some inter-band/punter wrestling and gratuitous nudity are left in their bag of tricks.
Fortunately, the audience love them too. Motherwell, rock city? Could be.
