Daevid returned to the UK on his 50th birthday, to do a series of self-initiation playshops and a few low key gigs...some hope. The UK 'goddess manifestation' of the invisibops can be heard on Live '88 . This lineup split due to the age old drugs issue and Allen's discomfort with the radicalised '80's feminism of some of the members.
