Blimey - that's going back a bit! I saw them at the Windsor Great Park free festival, probably around the same time. Nice festival until Thames Valley Plods got rather heavy handed!
Perhaps 5 years later they were playing in Powis Square, London W10 one Saturday afternoon - I was working just around the corner. By all accounts they are a really decent bunch.

I listen to loads of different music - I often wonder just how much really good music passes me by just because I'm unaware of it. In no particular order I like Richard Thompson, John Martyn, The Doors, The Strokes, Beth Orton, Rory Gallagher, The Band, Dr John, Vampire Weekend, The Beatles, Ry Cooder, Little Feat, Bonnie Rait, Wilko Johnson and lots more!
