What happened? Some of us turned up ignoring the football and saw a trio with at least one madman going a bit bonkers in a really friendly way.

Silk Purse: From our masked bassist going wandering in the crowd in the first track we know there's a bit of chaos here.  But they're sweet with it, holding up a squeaky pig in between their punchy, frantic, math-madness.  It's intense, tight and bludgeoning, but they're always happy, in the same way that the Joker is.  We also believe they may have special powers over animals as the nearby sheep appear to bleat in time with them.

Sow's Ear: We could do with a few more people here at the start, and it's a bit of an unsatisfactory conclusion to the set, just finishing and shuffling off rather than the fireworks they should be setting off.
