Hi all,

Well, we're getting our soul moves and red roses ready for our special guest slot with Al Green on the 31st October - a real inspiration of ours. Between us we've played alongside Madonna, James Brown, Ray Charles, and Van Morrison... now, after Al, only Stevie Wonder and Steely Dan to go, and the 'hero set' is complete! Be great to see some of you there – it kicks off at 7pm and we understand there's still a few tickets left, which you can get here. Big congratulations go to Scott Moffat who won two tickets to the show through the Hue and Cry Music Club competition!

And it's also a real treat to announce the tickets on sale for our next, extended UK tour in February '09 - titled "Open Soul... Open Road" tour. We've listened to a lot of your feedback about towns and cities that we'd missed the first time round, so hopefully you'll get a chance to see us in full-band action this time round. If you go to the Music Club you can see some clips of the last tour on the "Public Stage" channel, just to whet your appetite. This is really shaping up to be one of our best bands yet, and they'll be out on the road with us again in February. It's one of the great joys of the music biz to see your songs evolve and change as you play them in front of live audiences - and between your phonecams and our digicams, we'll be recording every moment!

See you there!

All the best,

Pat and Greg
