| SATURDAY 6 MAY 2000 SIQUE SIQUE SPUTNIK LIVE AT SONIC MOOK EXPERIENCE WEDNESDAY 10 MAY 2000 SJM CONCERTS PRESENTS CLINIC TIME: 7.30pm ADMISSION: £8 advance TICKETS: Available now from Ticketweb "Internal Wrangler", the debut album by Clinic, shows just what can be done for pop music by avoiding not just the middle of the road but the whole road entirely. Clinic have found stuff that's been lying around on the verges, marginalised and overlooked, and pushed them to the forefront of their newly patented cure. It's a unique synthesis of everything that's been good about music for the past 500 years. Noise, silence, peace and violence, they're all here. It's medicine for the soul, a love transfusion service, the kindest of all cuts. It's Clinic, down at the funky hospital, bringing us back to life, getting better all the time. Trust them - they're a doctor.
