The package includes includes bespoke designs, exclusive unreleased photographs on tour with the band in 1997 with a limited number of DVDs being fully signed by the band. There’s also bonus DVD which features a live performance of Tellin’ Stories, recorded last year at Glasgow’s Barrowlands during the album’s 15th anniversary tour last year.

Mountain Picnic Blues is released on March 11.
