'Performing 'Here's One We Made Earlier' in 2022 is something that would have been hardfor us to imagine in 1992. It is humbling to think that people still want to hear these songs.Believe us when we say that it feels like a privilege to play these 30-year-old songs for anaudience. Some songs from the album have evolved and have been reimagined over theyears and some songs haven't changed at all, but all of them feel newly reinvigorated by thistour. We cannot wait' - Matthew Devereux/The Pale
