The First Complete Double Live Set
Recorded live (warts 'n' all, as nature intended, with no edits made to the original tapes at all) sometime between 11.30pm on Fri 8th May and 2.00a.m on Sat 9th May 2009 at The Holmfirth Picturedrome.
We got booked to play at the Holmfirth Festival of Folk as part of the post-show shindig after Eliza Carthy's performance on the Picturedrome main stage.
As we were setting-up in the 'balcony bar' we sneaked into Eliza's band dressing room leaving them all a message to come and join the shenannigans upstairs after they'd finished. Needless to say they did!
On a funnier note, Danny got propositioned by members of The Men They Could Not Hang for drugs, to whom he pointed out that he was the father of two small children and they were asking the wrong bloke. They went on ask him "What about yer mate? Has he got any?", to which Danny smiled as he explained his partner-in-crime was an infant teacher!
It was a great night/morning, where we played a set that would make Bruce Springsteen blush. A huge thanks goes out to the night-owl crowd who stopped to the bitter end, yelling for more, even after we were totally spent! Cheers for making it so memorable.
