THE Garbage bubble may have finally burst as far as record sales go but no one seems to have told the band yet.
Fronted by the ever-energetic Shirley Manson, their entrance was marked with a string of their early works.
And as Manson skipped and cavorted around the stage, it was the material of the the band's first two albums that shone brightest.
Now modelling a short, blonde crop and teasing the crowd with the inward searching 'I think I'm paranoid' there was no signs of any lack of confidence.
Their new stuff may not captivate the masses but for their hard-core fans their live show is still an exhilarating and passionate experience.
