It is a pity that we do not have a concert in Brixton.

You guys are so damn generous! : ) Thanks so much, this will complete my CD

Is there a bootleg website I could go to, to ensure I don't bug you all about this type of thing again??

I don't think there is a site including all, or many, bootlegs that you can directly download from. But it's not§ a kind of bug, dear.

I loved the Willow's Song since I was a kid. Maybe that's why Wickerman really caught my ear the first time I heard it. Ah, and you would hear Willow's Song sample clearer in this live version.

The lyrics are cool. OMG Jarvis!!! *fangirl shouting*

I always assumed they'd never done this live! Very cool! And that spoken intro is hilarious!

Only listened to the version from Brixton which is nearly as good as I remembered! Shame you were back in prison 'Catpain Tractor' or you could have gone to Brixton to see it live too!

I remember when they played Sound City 2001 in Birmingham. The gig was streamed via webcast and there was also an edited version on John Peel. I had my tape in my Hi-Fi recording and listening to the gig and at the end of Wickerman the entire broadcast broke down and Jarvis just kept repeating the same line, (about 'Shitting himself' if I remember correctly!?) and the broadcast didn't resume till about 10 minutes left. Can't remember which song it was they resumed with, could'a been Sunrise. Anyway, it completely ruined my lovely FM recording of that gig did the digital fuck up. I don't thin k the show has ever been repeated has it?
