he Festival is cruising towards its third and final week, and The List posse can afford to chill out a little. We’ve worked like dogs, seen all there is to see, and cast our thoughts in purposeful prose. As this is our final Festival issue, it’s all down to you now. Read the reviews and dig in your pocket for a ticket for what takes your fancy. The Top Ten over the page is a

selection from the cream of the Fest. There’s also a Hitllst at the start of each Time Zone, giving the lowdown on another clutch of top- rated shows, worth a few quid of anybody’s money.

The Time Zones are all packed to the rafters with reviews, telling it like it is in our habitually fearless style. You’ll also find full details of times, prices and venue in the small print at the bottom.

' Everything, as usual, is pulled

together in the Index, which you’ll find below. And in case you still yearn for more, there are separate sections on Festival Art, Clubs and Music, plus detailed coverage of the Film Festival.

The next issue of The List will be out in a fortnight, so this time you’ll get two weeks’ worth of listings for Glasgow and Edinburgh after the Festival coverage. But while the Festival’s still going on, grab what you can.
