Has anyone been to see them on their UK tour?
I thought they were much more rocking than their albums - I was expecting a sit down and a listen to some intricate and clever playing on unusual instruments. Turned out to be a standing only venue and lots of dancing along going on in the audience. Enjoyed it once they quickly got into their stride (3 or 4 tracks in), but not at all what I was expecting.
