I'll second that Craig!!!!

Think they are from The Wirral aka "3 Side Island" which is the title of their new CD.

Bought the album "3 side island" at a gig recently and I think its great! Do you have the album yet Capo da Monty? If not I can thoroughly recommend it!

Yep. Saw them at Cramlington FC last month with Mike Silver. Brilliant! Also have the previous CD "England's Stone" which is again highly recommended.
Looking forward to catching up with them at South Lakes Promotion in Ulverston on 1st May

Could anyone tell me what or who "Long May You Stand" a track on Elbow Jane's England's Stone...is about?

I could tell you: but then I'd have to kill you!

Only joking: Rich Woods wrote the song and it is basically about holding things in your memory (people, events etc.) I believe there is a deeper basis to it i.e. the reason Rich first thought about writing the song but that is personal to Rich.

Sorry for being so vague!
