 Which Gong?  The original was Daevid Allen's group, heavily into
 psychedelia with a mythology of pot-head pixies attempting to bring
 enlightenment.  The early Gong stuff is wonderful if you like
 guitar/synth based prog rock, and Steve Hillage is a splendid
 guitarist.
 The band split up in the 70's, with most of the band except for Allen
 and Gilli Smyth retaining the name and moving toward a jazz fusion
 sound.  Allen has been back gigging with Daevid Allen's Gong, but I
 don't know offhand who is in his lineup.
 Either is probably worth seeing, but expect different kinds of music.
