 Hi Karl, 
  
 They were truly majestic. They opened up with about 10 minutes (all 
 stated times are very approximate due to temporal awareness distortions 
 experienced on the night!) of primal riffing that suddenly segued into 
 music of almost indescribable delicacy and beauty. For the next half 
 hour or so they covered every possible form of psychedelic tomfoolery, 
 including a touching acapella chant in which they described how much 
 they hate Tokyo and Manchester United (call me cynical but I think the 
 latter was a crowd pleasing stunt!). Then they played "Pink Lady 
 Lemonade". For an hour. There was one point where Kawabata kicked in 
 with a gorgeous fuzzy guitar break that had me in tears it was so 
 intense and beautiful. I can't find enough words to adequately describe 
 just how good they were, but go and see them next time, whatever you do.
