That was how I first experienced them (I saw a two-song clip of them performing live back in I think probably 2004?) and that is what made me interested. I doubt that would've happened if I'dve first heard a studio recording (not that they're bad on record.. they're just better live.)

If that was the Jools Holland appearance thats kinda like how i got into them, Id got the album a few weeks before and hadnt really got into it but then saw them on telly and was absolutely blown away. I cant afford any albums at the moment, so i guess ill have to wait. Thankfully ive been able to avoid the maniacal promotion-fest, ive only heard Intervention and its wonderful.
