Retrieved 2 September 2010.</ref> Siouxsie said: "We were thinking of filming in South America but that got pulled right at the last minute". That's when she decided they had got to have a document of the show, the band and how she was feeling onstage, "because all the concerts had been going so well". "So I decided to put in a one off show at Koko and film it".<ref>{{cite web |last1=Jones |first1=Damian |title=Siouxsie Sioux raps female image |date=19 May 2009  |access-date=2023-02-18 |url=http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/entertainment/8058260.stm |publisher=BBC}}</ref>

Siouxsie began the concert telling the audience a [[Bette Davis]] line from the film ''[[All About Eve]]'': "Fasten up your seatbelts, it's going to be a bumpy night".<ref>[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3vEEh0GF_C8&t=8s "Fasten Your Seatbelts... - All About Eve"].
