Never listened to Coil beyond their NIN involvement, but I did see them live at this show in London, opening for Sigur Ros. This was the bit that sticks in my mind the most:

John: “This next song [Ostia] is about Pasolini and it’s from Horse Rotorvator. But first, some poetry from an Italian.”


During this song and the next, Massimo and Pierce left the stage to give out organic apples to audience members [emphasis mine]. Massimo even gave one to Marc Almond, who was in attendance at the show. This is the only gig where Pierce and Massimo did this.
