Sounds like new interviews for this programme. I didn't understand much of what he says anyway, but seems that nothing really interesting, I hope I'm wrong and any English native speaker could get something from this interview.

Thanks for the link. Turns out it's one of these classic "1 minute of talking, 5 minutes of music" types of interviews. I don't get it. Not only that, but talking over the music as well. With all due respect to Paul, I wish it would be just a simple conversation. Makes sense since they need to promote the new live box, but still...

Thanks Dusty

At minute 7:25 of the interview Mark says that the motivation is still there to play for people. Is he referring to the present day? Seems like playing live is something very important to him and the circle of writing, recording and playing. New tour seems unlikely but who knows if a couple of gigs are possible, just for the joy of putting the band together and just enjoy

Frustratingly short segments. If you cut it all together the interview must be like 5 minutes total.

Around the 7:25 mark in the interview, Mark expresses that the motivation to perform for audiences is still alive. This raises the question of whether he is referring to the current time. It appears that playing live holds significant importance for him, completing the cycle of writing, recording, and performing. While a new tour may be unlikely, the possibility of a few gigs for the sheer joy of reuniting the band and savoring the experience cannot be ruled out.

I haven't gotten around to buying the live box yet, but it occurred me, is the 16-page booklet based on this radio program? Both the show and the booklet are by Paul Sexton.
