A review by Dianne Foreman in a local fanzine the following month:
'The Doctors got onstage fairly late which was a disadvantage as many people had to get buses home, etc., but there were about three rows of us standing in front of the stage and quite a few onlookers scattered about. The band came on to cheers and opened with "Doctors Of Madness" letting everyone know what they were in for. Then came "Into The Strange" which came over really well and brought cheers from the audience, as did most of their material. The new songs from the forthcoming LP were met with a little caution but everyone seemed to like them. I would say that the most popular songs of the night were "Brothers" / "Suicide City", "Waiting", "Cool" / "Waiting For The Man" and their encore and recent single "Bulletin" (this is judging from the cheers, participation etc.)
The Doctors themselves were in great form; Kid Strange made some magnificent poses and expressions while keeping the vocals and guitar coming strong. Stoner moved across the stage sometimes like a cat, sometimes like he was in pain but always keeping the bass going. The drums had a real bashing (at one point a cymbal fell over) from the ever-energetic Peter Di Lemma, and Urban Blitz kept the music coming from his violin and guitar, though he did appear to have a short rest during part of the set. The standard of all the songs was incredible, and if the new songs didn't go down as well as usual it was because the audience was stunned by the quality.'
