Band has still not played live, but does aspire to that. There is a lot of additional biographical type info in the audio track "What Farces Wanna Mo Has To Say" (available through this site and on the ep "Transcend & Subsume"). Download it. It is a big mp3 file, but the presentation is a lot funner when you can hear the variety of voices and visions of the lages Farces group.
