OFWGKTA - The Academy 23rd August

Jimmy Iovine

So they're actually playing a proper gig in Dublin. Absolutely delighted with this news. Don't have the money for Oxegen and thought I'd miss out on it then. No info on tickets at the moment.

Sorry I can't make the picture any smaller. My computer skills are ****e.

excellent news, Tyler broke his foot the other day so i thought that was going to have an impact on touring.

If that goon from Jedward continued on performing with a banjaxed knee then I'd hope that Tyler can do the same. He'll just have to tone down the performance a little

Ya?? Many of them on stage? How long did they play for?

Not sure? Think there were 8 or so. Frank Ocean and Earl (obviously) weren't there. Or Jasper the Dolphin. I might be wrong I don't recognise all of them that well.

I'd stop short of saying it was brilliant, the sound was very muddy so you could barely make out the lyrics, but it was good craic none the less. I'd say they played for 45 or 50 minutes maybe? The on stage antics were fun and they've got a nice genuine banter between songs not the usual "Hello *looks at card* Ireland!" stuff. And there thankfully wasn't too much everybody make some noise or wave your hands in the air bollocks with bores me at this stage.

Saw that it's an over 18's. Think they'd let a 17 year old in if he was with a group of older peeps?

Couldn't see that happening to be honest. I was carded at the Rakim gig and everytime I've gone into the Academy - but that was for Octopussy.

So excited about this. Love these guys, it's going to be so much fun!
