Wolverhampton Civic Hall 25th October 2009 GaryUK Recording

Backstage snap from the show taken by James Goulden (see below for more details)

Further evidence that my filing system still has some kinks in it. I was already beginning to make my way through the collection of historical artifacts from 2010 when I stumbled over a few items from the 2 years prior that I'd accidentally overlooked. Regular readers of the blog will be used to this appalling lack of discipline, and there will probably be more in the future, so please excuse my slackness.

This is another fine audio capture from the Archive's #1 man with the hidden mic, Mr GaryUK, covering the band's return to the West Midlands in October of 2009. As you'd expect, the sound quality is magnificent. Another big, big thank you is heading your way sir ;)

The album being toured was ITLAOTE, but the setlist has a gem from the early days included in the form of Open Your Arms. Once a set closer on those early tours, it's nice to hear it again in a mid-gig position. There's some excellent photos from the backstage area of this show that were taken by friend to the Archive, and previous contributor, Mr James Goulden. One of them is included above and you can find out more by following this link to a post I did about his work a while ago. Thanks once again to you, James. Enjoy the music, everyone ;)
