Metropolis Studios, London, December 4th 2010. Studio A measures 98 square metres and contains six musicians, a five man film crew and 120 fans. This equation adds up to one electric performance for Canterbury s finest Caravan. Pye Hastings, Geoffrey Richardon, Jim Leverton, Jan Schelhaas and new drummer Mark Walker are joined by retired percussionist and founder member Richard Coughlan to deliver an accomplished set that includes many favourites from their 25 album, 40+ year career. This DVD captures the magic of that concert, together with band interviews and more. In the interviews following the concert, Richardson (a virtuoso on the garden shears, among many other instruments) compares the experience to playing the Marquee on Wardour Street.
