Thighpaulsandra's opening words: “Good evening. Thank you for coming. We are Coil. We’re a long way from the sea, but we’re surrounded by water. Thank you.”

Thighpaulsandra’s closing words: “Thank you very much. We’ve been Coil.”

On August 17th 2003, Brainwashed reported: “Sleazy is about to leave for an extended vacation in the Far East, during which he will be working on new material for Coil, next year’s Throbbing Gristle performance, and his new project LeftHandPath. Work has started on compiling and mastering the video footage and projections from various live Coil performances for DVD release. There have been some unexpected delays due to the complexity of some of the material, but Coil hopes to have the material completed and ready for release as two double DVD sets this autumn. One of the sets will be comprised of the recent MUTEK performance and the Vienna/Prague shows that were featured on the Live Four CD.” On this latter set, Peter comments: “I actually found this extremely difficult to edit in places, despite having done it professionally for years. Having to watch Jhon in full creative flow but also in such obvious pain…You can begin to understand why his unique brand of ‘speaking in tongues’ is so demanding, and therefore why he is now taking a much-needed sabbatical.” This footage would not see the light of day until 2010 with the release of Colour Sound Oblivion.

On December 1st 2003, Black Sun Productions announced that it “is planning to edit a film about our collaboration with Coil. It’s planned to be our personal / artistic impression on what is like to be on stage with Coil – part of Coil. It will feature live + backstage footages from our archives. The title came before everything else: ENO ERA EW. We’re talking with Sleazy about how to make it as different and complementary as possible from the four live DVD Coil will release in early 2004.” These releases never happened.
