Is anyone goin to see these anywhere around the country? Kinda hard to miss cos they seem to be everywhere! I got the new album today(only €16, with a dvd) and its amazing. The original stuff is as good as ever and then two covers(Metallicas Orion and Led Zeps Stairway), its very impressive listenin.

ya-what-now?

Yeah goin to see their April gig in the olympia! Actually managed to get seats in the stalls instead on the vertigo-inducing seats that I had last year up top! Can't wait to hear the new album now!:D

I've seen them before and they were quite good...a bit repetitive though...will probably eventually get the new album.

Found out about tomorrow's show too late, and I just realised that not only are the April dates already on sale but they're nearly fυckin sold out! Looks like I'm stuck with the aforementioned sh1tty vertigo inducing seats.
Seen them a couple of years ago in vicar st and they were truly awesome. You just can't help being sucked in. Will get the new album too but tbh I don't really listen to their CD's that much. They don't even come close to the experience of seeing them live.

Yeah seeing them live is so much better than the cd's. But they capture the sound really well on cd aswell. Gets ya happy before the gig that ya know the songs and then your blown away cos you can see the blur of hands the whole time.

True, watching them on tv earlier was a good taster but they played HMV on Grafton Street last Friday and they blew me away, amazing stuff. Basically guaranteed me buying the new album.

Was at the Rod y Gab gig at the Olympia tonight.
Very good show. 2nd time I've seen them.
Enthusiastic audience. 2 encores - particularly like the cover of 'Wish you were here'.
Worth seeing when they're back in April.

Only annoyance was continual movement of people in and out of their seats.

They really are everywhere, yet I've never heard anything by them. I might pick up the album when I'm in town next.
