Keeping an eye on To Live in the pool. Interested to see what people would put alongside it in the six.

Cian, that is a good way of choosing. I tend to match the pick to the evening as well.

To Live is one I am weighing up. This would be a good change of pace from the things currently at the top of my list.

Niamh, fair point. There is room for something a bit different in the next six.

For anyone considering To Live: A little more variety in the shortlist is always welcome. Glad this is in the pool.
