Tour De Flock is the first live album and DVD by Bell X1. It is a 2-disc compilation featuring 16 tracks from their sold-out gig at The Point Theatre, Dublin on December 1 2006.

The album is the group's first since being leaving Island Records and was issued through their own BellyUp label. The deluxe double package comes with a wallpaper style digipack sleeve. The release was timed to coincide with their summer shows at Malahide Castle in Dublin and at the Marquee in Cork in 2007.

The live version of "Eve, the Apple of My Eye" is currently being played on Today FM as a promo single for the album.
