Freebird: Three London motorcycle couriers Fred (Gary Stretch) Tyg (Geoff Bell) and Grouch (Phil Daniels) set off from the capital in search of an elusive hippy and his cannabis farm in the Welsh mountains. Originally intended as a nice weekend in the country Fred has now found himself making a promise to his old friend the Chairman that whatever situations arise he will not return empty handed. Grouch has also made a promise that come Monday morning he'll be moving himself and his belongings into his new found love Lucinda's flat and finally making an attempt at the world of serious relationships. As for Tyg no such pact. This is a man who's never been further than the outskirts of London and as far as he's concerned an industrial unit near Heathrow Airport is pretty much the back of beyond. No Tyg's out to explore; to broaden his horizons; to lose any ignorance and soak up the hospitality of another nation.

Throw in a seven foot masked lovesick Russian wrestler and things could really get out of hand. That said it may also have something to do with the wild mushrooms they had for breakfast. It's a three and a half hour journey from London to the Welsh mountains but for Fred Tyg and Grouch it's just about to turn into the trip of a lifetime.

The Knitting Factory concert was part of an American tour which saw Mark E Smith performing from behind a desk at the front of the stage. The reason for this was that prior to the tour Mark E Smith had endured an accident during which time he fell over and broke his leg which subsequently needed a steel pin inserting in order that the break be fixed and enable Mark to walk. The concert is no less interesting however
