The orange cat and I watched this the other day - it really is a smashing package. I have to admit that I had not heard of them before, but I have rectified the omission.. In 2006, GPS stunned audiences with their debut album "Window To The Soul". In 2007 GPS toured the UK and Japan to great acclaim. Presented here are 2 full concerts from the Japanese tours: one with the full band the other an acoustic show by John Payne and Guthrie Govan. Also, included are bonus interviews and an "in- store" acoustic performance. Price:£24.99 Check it Out
