  2. Caught about 15 Tg gigs when I was in london, every one had it's own very distict atmosphere through the use of ionisers and sub sonic sounds and at one gig at Xmas we were all given a lolly...(which may or may not have been...!)
    I will get back to you on FB got something you might be interested in!
    Regards/
