I don't think I have looked forward to a new album this much since I was a teenager, and I'm now 53!
In 2011 when my son and I heard Joe was going to do a CD with 'Beth Hart' we looked her up and were both blown away. When Don't Explain came out we listened to it for the first time together. I will never forget the glances we exchanged and the emotions we felt.
We have since seen Beth live three times and Joe five times. We think seeing them together could be the best gig we have ever been to, and we have seen a lot of gigs in the past 7 years.
When we saw the joint mini European tour announced we just had to get tickets, and went for Bergen as we have both wanted to visit Norway, even though we can't really afford it. Then the Hampton Court gig came along and we decided to get tickets for that instead and cancel the Norway trip, to save some dosh.
However having read this thread it made me think perhaps we could do both as I haven't tried to sell the Bergen tickets yet. I would have to change a flight which might cost me but we might also end up on the same flight to the UK as Joe and Beth! I'll look into that this week.
So roll on 21 May and 22 and 24 June!
