I don't know if any other Heartlanders were there, but I should report that Messires Cave & co were on top form last night at the Brixton Academy.

A lot of stuff played from the latest CD, and two excellent encores with some storming versions of Deanna, City of Refuge and the Mercy Seat.

If you're going to see him at one of the forthcoming dates then you're in for a good time.

For sure it was a great concert.

Pitty that Nick forgot Portugal on their tour dates. That is not normal. :evil:

If I bump into him around Brighton I'll pass on your displeasure at the lack of Portugese dates

Mercy Seat? Lucky Git!

All we got at Wolves Civic was the entire new album...then the encore...

City of Reguge, Deanna, a truly amazing version of Stagger lee...but NO Mercy Seat!! :(

Superb show none the less.....just wish WE could have had Mercy Seat...or Tupelo...or The Ship Song etc etc yadda yadda...

Saw him in Manc - brilliant as usual.
1 hour of the new album then nearly an hour encore of the classics (inc mercy seat).

A pic I took :

Was there Friday night as well. Top stuff. Even if he does tend to resemble a malevolent stick insect.

:lol: well, that description also applies to a singer from another band who we tend to chat about even more frequently on this site... :innocent:
