The summer festival tour all that's inked. Geordie is pushing to write
and record. Bodes well!

My summary:

Basically a recital of the first lp-opened w Requiem- minus
Complications and S036 plus these formed the set:

Turn to red -Geordie stirred up a wall of oscillating echoes and
harmonics and grooved like mad

Madness, Butcher, Unspeakable from the seond lp

Love like blood, Eighties from Nightime

Pandemonium, Communion, Whiteout (totally explosive)

Plus one new one that smoked! In NY they did a new one called Timewave.
This one was different and even better. Fast tempo.

Jaz and Youth were in good form vocally. Jaz had minimal warpaint
on--just enough to disturb you. Disappointing sloppy t shirt though.

It was a short set- they basically used the venue as an open rehearsal
for the big "lollapalooza" festival they are playing sunday. The place
was soldout-est 500 people in a sweaty ancient dungeon-no upper level.

Ten minute walk back to the hotel.
London, I can dig.
