Show Notes: A hometown show to end the current leg of the tour, and a terrific show to boot, this is one tight band, and the addition of Katie Harkin on keys and guitar really helped flesh out some of the songs. Highlights included Depreston which I thought sounded great and featured a terrific singalong by the crowd which I don't think Courtney was expecting. A few different songs played at this show compared to the previous setlists on this tour (eg. Lance Jr, Nobody Really Cares If You Don't Go To The Party), and some great covers. A brilliant show to end this leg of the tour!
Recording Notes: Sounds excellent, I always seem to be able to get great recordings at Festival Hall. Nice and crisp sounding, and minimal talking around me. Normalising and increasing the treble are the only adjustments I needed to make. Enjoy!
