Punk-Funk All Stars/Trio Beyond: Barbican, London
Mark Pringle, Rock's Backpages, 17 July 2006
GIG OF THE YEAR, without a doubt. To see a stage-full of musicians embrace the possibility of total chaos, of absolute failure is, in these days of pablum and placebos, to witness a near-revolutionary act. That they succeeded in splitting an audience of complacent middle-class white folk right down the middle was just fantastic.
