The information for this image was taken for a story that ran in The Manawatu Evening Standard on 9th October 1991 "Gigs at Massey disoriented: Orientation appears rather grim this year… Organisers at Massey say they can't afford the top acts any more. But the issue goes a little deeper than that. Orientation '92 is a departure from the tradition previous organisers fought hard to establish. Consider the many Kiwi bands who have used the sweaty, beer-sodden social hall as a build up for greater things (and record sales) overseas. [The full article can be read on the newspaper microfilm held at the City Library.] Other local bands who need no introduction are Feast of Stevens, Flippin Hippies (formerly Wild Honey Pie), and Lung, who've promised to keep their clothes on."
