Some site the "Butt Naked" slot as one of the most exciting TV performances the
Manics gave. About a month before Richey went into hospital, the Manics are
done up in combat fatigues and faces muddied with make-up/camouflage and fired
up like hell. Sean was the only one in a UN peacekeeping uniform, which attracted
probably the coolest heckle ever from the audience "Do something about Bosnia, you bastard!".
Regretably, Channel Four axed Nicky's remark that "S4C is better than crack!", and there is no
presence of quips from any Manic. 30 minutes of manics, and a particularly melancholic
stab at "She is Suffering", which was new material then. They meant it, maaaan.
