Liam Fray (Courteeners) performs 'There is a light...'

[Jukebox Jury]

Just got back from the XFM 'Winter Wonderland' gig at Manchester Academy.

Liam Fray of The Courteeners did an accoustic session (with a keyboard player) and for his last song he was joined on stage with Miles Kane of The Last Shadow Puppets and together they played a great version of 'There is a light....' which went down a storm.

Next on stage was The Cribbs. Johnny Marr looked as cool as ever, but they were not my cup of tea.

Before that, Echo & The Bunnymen were on and a pissed up Ian MacCulloch managed to f*** up the set..... very poor show indeed.... they played a month ago at The Ritz and was the gig of the year for me.... tonight was poor indeed and I felt sorry for the Bunnymen who didn't put a note wrong....

Has McCullouch got a serious drinking problem? Every recent interview I've seen he is pissed.

The whole show is available to listen to on their website http://www.xfm.co.uk/news/2009/xfm-winter-wonderland-2009

Shame that you cannot manoeuvre around the broadcast and have to listen to it all - 3 hours.

I'd love him to play it at the GMEX on Friday.

Anyone heard there new song? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oJQCyjxFxR4 Very different, but very good imo. Looking forward to the new album in February, as undoubtedly is Moz.
