These guys were part of the prematch buildup on Monday night, and I was quite taken with what I heard www.hunterandthebear.co.uk

did like that a lot Chris, well spotted. It was up and compelling.

I have no idea why but I had a picture of James Taylor arguing with Roger Chapman.........I'm pretty sure I'm in need of some therapy, or stronger drugs.

Dunno Ali.
They were just there on the outside stage when we went to the footie, and I was ordering food when they were announced, so I missed what was said.

Definitely a bit of Michael Stipe in there, mixed up with some Hootie and Soul Asylum I reckon.

Going back to Hunter and the Bear the music (not the vocals) remind me a bit of Punch Brothers, possibly Seth Lakeman, but the mandolin screams Peter Buck at me (just to continue the REM comparison).
