40 The List 5-—18 November 1993
£10 plus booking fee. Tickets from Just the Ticket. Virgin. Union Street. 226 4679. Continuing to test the boundaries of audience patience with their ambient teasing. Their Glastonbury set was exhausting - not in terms of energy. just because it took so long for anything to happen. A prize for the first person to spot a life form on stage.
