"In our very short spell as a 'live band' Nurse With Wound performed 8 times, 5 in public, between the years of 1984-86. These events were shambolic, chaotic and uneven affairs, sometimes as boring for the performers as the non-plussed audiences but at other times reaching an amazing intensity. Some were quite amusing - I remember one in particular, a christmas event in Amsterdam. We had decided no electric lights, just hundreds of candles arund the stage and, in amongst the audience (whe were busy arranging them in circles) we began. I had a vast array of little noise making objects - toys and things - and I started inviting members of the audience to help us wind the clockwork stuff when suddenly about fifty people descended upon us, all very eager to help. Soon there was no room and we discreetly left the stage to watch the show from the comfort of the bar. Nobody seemed to notice. The audience played well and some of that gig made it on to this CD, which contains the hight points of our Bar Maldoror happenings (sic)." - Steven Stapleton Feb 3rd 1994.
