I saw them in Ottawa recently as part of their current N. American tour.
The live set was a joy to watch. Right off the bat, you got the impression that it was just a bunch of blokes from the UK jamming in a basement (or wherever musicians jam in the UK). Guys were cracking jokes at each others expense, involving the audience and just being very down-to-earth about the whole thing. Lots of newer stuff, but they played some "classics" that the whole audience just sang along to.
The accoustics of the venue was pretty bad in my opinion, but overall I wouldn't have traded the overall experience. Enjoy the show!
BTW, they played with a band called Stabilo; from Vancouver I think. Just two guys playing accoustic sets. Pretty good actually.
