Gig of the Week this week we are going to go slightly under the radar here because with The Mars Volta, Basement Jaxx, Lily Allen, White Lies, Depeche Mode, Rodrigo Y Gabriella and Bell X1 all playing this week. Its an absolutely insane week with regards top acts being in dublin.
So for us, This weeks top gig is JOE BONAMASSA
Joe Bonemassa is a Blues and Rock Musician, with an air of Virtuoso guitarist about him. By age 7 he was playing stevie ray vaughan songs note for note on guitar. The Early work was Electric but in recent times has a lot more acoustic work. Just watching him playing an acoustic like its an electric guitar is a sight to behold.
If Blues and Classic Rock are up your alley, This could well be an Epic gig for you to see, we would highly reccomend it.
Joe Bonemassa – Vicar Street – €38
Notable mention is
Bring The Toys in aid of Crumlin and Temple St Childrens’ Hospital feat. Richie Jape. Delorentos and more
Twisted Pepper
€11.95
