A rather strange evening; much of the audience seemed to have been invited by the organisers with very little idea of what they were actually there to see, and a significant portion of the row in front of us left after the first few songs.

Despite that, Eliza and the band produce an exhillerating set with numerous highlights including the No Man's Jig medley and the Watersons songs. Although Pace-Egging Song was played on the tour with Sharon Shannon, Eliza's version of The Good Old Way was new to me.

All songs are (Trad. arr. Carthy) except where indicated.
