Speedy says:
"The Norwegian Wood Festival, which takes its name from the Beatles song, originated in 1992 and was originally held at Bærums Verk in Bærum. In 1994, the festival moved to Frognerbadet, where it remaoned until 2017, its final year. The Pretenders played at the 2009 festival, along with Neil Young, Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds, Duffy, and Keane. This soundboard recording captures their set from June 13, 2009, 16 years ago today. The show features several songs from their 2008 release, Break Up The Concrete, as well as a host of the band's classics. "
