'Into The Fire (Acoustic)'
Bryan plays 'Into The Fire' acoustically for the first time... similar in style to the solo electric version on the 'Live! Live! Live!' CD, big crowd singalong... just great. Captured on tour during the special '11 in 11 Acoustic Tour'.

'Never Let Go'
Bryan plays 'Never Let Go' for the first time during a live show... tuning down the guitar as usual so he doesn't sing the high notes like on the recording. It looks like BA hadn't practised the song as he fluffs the start of the first chorus. All in all though it's still great to hear even though it was just done acoustically. BA dedicates the song to Pierre Gemayel who was a Lebanese minister assassinated in Beirut.

'Don't Drop That Bomb On Me (Acoustic)'
Seeing as we're in an anti-war mood I thought I'd upload this little gem that newer fans might not have heard before. It's a great acoustic version done by BA for a Peace Songs CD back in 2003. I normally don't upload any original BA songs... but seeing as this is so damn rare and no longer on sale I don't see the harm.

'Don't Drop That Bomb On Me'
I was lucky enough to attend this show and BA closed the gig with this song...BA on acoustic and Keith on strat. Before the song his said this little speech..."within the next hour or so it will probably be decided or not whether a war with Iraq will begin. I wrote this song I’m about to sing for you back in 1991 at the time of the Gulf War. It’s called ‘Don’t Drop That Bomb On Me." Sure enough the next day, war broke out. It was a scary time back then and I think he echoed everyone's thoughts with this performance.

'Have You Ever Really Loved A Woman?'
As he does when he plays almost all Spanish speaking cities, BA decides to re-introduce this song to the setlist. This being the first night of the tour in Mexico it's spur of the moment at the end of the show, with Bryan on acoustic guitar and Keith on Spanish guitar. The rest of the dates this was done full band so this is something a little different. The quality isn't great but it gives ya an idea of whats goin' down in Mexico!

Yes thats right folks... let the mighty guitar maestro Karl Watson and Bryan TAKE YOU DANCING! We all know Bryan's first ever solo dancefloor classic - 'Let Me Take You Dancing'... well the cult chipmunk release originally brought out in '79 has been given a new lease of life as Karl pays tribute to his all time favourite dancefloor classic. It see's Karl dig deep into his roots influenced by Bryan's modern live harmonica performances and acoustic show endings... this my friends is Karl's tribute to the cult BA disco classic we all know and love... 2007 stylee!!!... 'Let Me Take You Dancing - Stripped!'
