In 2008 they sold out their own festival Beautiful Days for the sixth year in a row the band performed a memorable and rousing headline show at The Royal Albert Hall which went from moments of great intimacy in the first acoustic half to an electric roof raising showdown which mixed new material with the bands' classic favourites.
