Hi,

Sounds like the same band she toured South East Asia and Australia earlier this year with. Anyhow wasn't the use of the accordian player brilliant!? He really did fit in well into the general schemes of her set and her music. When I got to see her Ed & Andy had a 40min set before which was brilliant as well, except for losing the Waldorf Microwave (master keyboard) for the first 15 mins of the set. If you're interested there was a good review written of the event, so check out the IDMlist archives for late March. Oh yeah the set seems to be very similar as well and if that is the case she would have played LFO's "Shove Piggy Shove". There is a story behind it, but I can't remember it off-hand. Regards, John
