That dynamic sonic duo SAVD will perform both National Grid – utilising live mains electricity and antique laboratory equipment – and Circuit Blasting – in which we attack cheap electronic keyboards with high voltage electrical devices – at Newcastle's <a href="http://www.life.org.uk/articles/100" target="_blank">Centre for Life</a> on 5 March 2008 as part of the city's AV festival.

For those who have no idea what I'm talking about, here are Youtube clips of <a href="http://youtube.com/watch?v=B13-09K-Ubc" target="_blank">National Grid</a> at London's Corsica Studios in 2004 and <a href="http://youtube.com/watch?v=uPfbha-w1Dc" target="_blank">Circuit Blasting</a> at the Unitarian Church in Cambridge in 2006. And a real treat – <a href="http://youtube.com/watch?v=v8rgHNL5ztE" target="_blank">rare film</a> of the boys at <span>the Stoke Newington Literary and Scientific Society "Xmas Conversatione" in 1893</span>.

Tickets for the Newcastle event are £5.00 each. To book your place ring the box office on 0191 232 8289 or pay on the night.
