When Fran and Andy embarked on their tour of North America and Canada in October 2009, they certainly kept their fans in mind.
Attendees of the tour (dubbed "A Chronological Acoustical Journey Through The Travis Back Catalogue) experienced the songs of Travis like never before: in small, intimate venues with Andy and Fran armed only with their guitars, a piano, and a slew of great songs. The shows also featured a homemade slideshow by Fran, illustrating the inspirations for the songs.
Fran explained that the format of the show starts "with the first song I wrote and ends with the last song I wrote. Between these two bookends [Andy and I] play a selection of songs running in chronological order.”
Some of the stories were heartwarming, many comical, and a few telling of harder times; the show was equal parts performance and storytelling, equating to a genuinely unique concert experience.
Now you can relive this one-of-a-kind show whenever you'd like with the release of the official live "bootleg" album titled, A Chronological Acoustical Journey Through The Travis Back Catalogue Live, a live audio recording capturing their performances from this tour including a previously unheard new song.
This album, which was previously only available on the tour, will now be released on Tuesday, the 19th of January, in both digital MP3 and physical formats in the US, and in the digital format in the UK, France and Germany.

Edit: Just to make things clear, this means that only people from the US, UK, Germany, and France can buy the cd, right?

It's a shame the physical CD is only available in America. Still, super that it's available to people who weren't able to go to a show.
Still, I'm wondering if anything will come from those New York shows which were apparently filmed... |

Does this mean that it is not possible to get hold of neither the digital nor the the physical copy if you live outside the US, UK, France and Germany?
