big687 Apr 15 2004 14:40 321 posts Member since 2003	The show at the Capitol was part of a full week of shows there launching the "10,9,8..." album and I was lucky enough to attend two nights including the one on the DVD. I still get goosebumps when I think of the full on burst of white lights as the chorus of Lucky Country starts. The support act was a string quartet called the Palm Court Orchestra (from memory). The show started in darkness with the throbbing synthesiser of Outside World. Fantastic atmosphere. Brings back a load of memories for sure.
