I've seen SFA a whole bunch of times. They used to be fucking dreadful live. Then somewhere around Guerilla they became absolutely amazing. They played two of the best shows I've ever seen. A mate of mine also went to there acoustic bingo requests show in Whelans which sounds like it would be a bit like Gruff live. Basically they had the artwork and names of songs on cardboard signs and people in the crowd could request whatever they wanted. Of course the crowd requested the most obscure things possible, which they then had to figure out how to play with acoustic instruments while floundering on stage. It sounded pretty bonkers, probably fairly middling if you weren't a die hard fan.
I've been lucky enough to experience a bingo show.
Cracking ban live, as is Gruff. His in between songs banter is like a bit of stand up comedy.
He's a great lad.
