One particular favourite of these was when we went to see Miles and Erica perform at the Old Courthouse in Thirsk on the 12 December 2008. This was a tiny venue, holding no more than 50 people, so made for an intimate, cosy gig. Also thankfully we weren't driving so it allowed us to drink copious amounts of red wine - bottles of which could be bought from a small table in the corridor that could only be accessed by walking over the stage area.
Playing a mixture of Wonder Stuff and solo songs the evening was truly memorable with our table singing along joyously with Miles. I hope he didn't mind! We were a little rough the next day but it was worth it.
This album captures one of Miles' and Erica's concerts from last year - the songs and banter are all present as are the fantastic guitar and violin playing.
I'm sure that we'll get to see them again soon, but in the meantime this album helps bring an intimate concert into the comfort of your living room. Give it a go just don't drink too much red wine!
