Yes, it works thank you. I hope it's still there on Tuesday and I can listen to it driving to work.

Another interesting interview. Slightly different slant on the background of some songs than from Mark (e.g. recording MFN.).
John is adding further dates across Germany and Spain and then probably more UK dates later in the year.

Can someone download it and make it available? (I can't seem to make it happen myself)

Yes agree, I saw him in Bury in 2017. Great show and what a lovely bloke to chat to afterwards.
Think these Q&A sessions mixed with songs old and new could be really interesting.
Still wonder if John will be a special guest at the RAH...?!

I was at that show in Bury - really enjoyable!    When John and the band started playing Walk of Life, for some unknown reasonI suddenly felt very emotional and tears began rolling down my cheeks!   I sang (mouthed) all of the songs and at the end Jess pointed straight at me laughing!   :)
