"Just before we went on, [Tutti] said, 'Discipline' and we did it. Just made it up. And I liked the fact that there are actually records of us inventing something; you are actually there when it was actually happening." [Genesis P-Orridge, Re/Search no. 4/5, 1982]

Lyceum, London. 8th Febnruary 1980.
Stereo.

Supported by Cabaret Voltaire, Clock DVA and Z'ev and Non. Billed as the first major show of strength for the Industrial Movement.

"I think that technology has been explored and the roots of blues music and slave music has been explored, and now we've done the Industrial music. We have to go beyond into where man meets space. I don't mean cosmic like Tangerine Dream, I mean inside the head." [Genesis P- Orridge, LBC radio interview , February 1981]

"The mood was grey, industrial, considered, serious. The hall was full to bursting, while outside a ragin' preacher protested about the contents of proceedings indoors." [Dave Henderson, Once Upon a Time sleeve notes]

"They wire things up as they go, they stuff the audience with their wares and it is wearing stuff. They can't keep their attention in one place for long enough. When they produce one of ther infrequent splays of exciting sound it seems to be a mistake; most of the time they are disengagingly trite. Their new single 'Discipline' sees people scurrying to the bar..." [Gavin Martin, NME, 14 February 1981]

"It was the night Throbbing Gristle were finally defined passe by the young stylists." [Magnus Hirschfield, Sounds, 28 Fenruary, 1981]

Veterans Auditorium, Los Angeles, USA. 22nd May 1981.
Stereo.

"In LA it was terrible. Everyone was going 'Can I have your autograph?' We could have just stood there for an hour and they would have thought it was great." [Cosey Fanni Tutti, Subvert]

"I thought the LA gig was better then the San Francsico gig because it was total anarchy. The equipment didn't function correctly, it was almost like a wall of white noise. I found it very satisfying. It was so utterly abstract and pointless it truly was nihilistic." [Genesis P- Orridge]

"Of the two tapes available from this performance, both suffered various degrees of distortion. This CD is a mix of the best and least distorted of each recording." [Chris Carter, TG+ notes, August 2003]

"San Francisco was appalling but funny. The best thing was the audience. All I remember as being exciing or interesting was the skinhead that gave me a kiss. That kiss and the way he responded was a fantastic moment. In Califorina to this day I meet people who say they were at that gig and they say how important it was for them." [Genesis P-Orridge, Subvert]
