First 3, no flash banner

Every week our photographers can be found trawling the pits of Dublin’s venues and beyond. You might have seen some of the snaps during the week but we thought we would take some of the best pictures we took this week and put them in a handy summary for you.

This is the quality live music you missed or caught this week. Which picture is your favourite.

A moment of tranquility in an otherwise manic show as you would expect from Therapy? Looking tranquil, manic and passionate, all in one moment.

If you didn’t know any better you might think they were all asleep on stage. They aren’t but it’s a great moment to catch on camera.
