What an immense gig week. In a week where we have Ben Folds, Thin Lizzy, Mogwai, British Sea Power and My Chemical Romance to name but a few big names in town it was tough to plump with one.
What made me plump with Ben Folds was having seen him before at Glastonbury he absolutely blew me away that day and I’ve been looking forward to seeing him live again and was only delighted when he announced a show in Dublin.
So he will be playing on Friday in other gigs this week we have Tuesday has Example in the Savoy and Mogwai in The Academy, Wednesday will see My Chemical Romance in The O2 and Thin Lizzy up in the Waterfront Hall, Belfast.
Thursday has Thin Lizzy in Dublin in The Olympia Theatre and British Sea Power in The Academy and Friday has British Sea Power in Spring and Airbrake, Example in The Academy and Grandmaster Flash in The Village and Sleigh Bells play Whelans.
Saturday will see KT Tunstall in Radisson Hotel, Galway and Ryan Sheridan is in Cyprus Avenue. Sunday has NE-YO in The O2 and The Rubberbandits in The Pavillion and finally Monday has Eddie Reader in The Grand Social and KT Tunstall at The Olympia Theatre.
That’s just a taster of what’s happening this week. Check the full listing below.
