Mic Christopher Night - Vicar Street, 29th November

CiaranK

The Frames, The Mary Janes and Friends will be celebrating the life of the wonderful Mic Christopher whose 10th anniversary is this year. Should be a great night of music. I'm guessing we can expect to see Liam O'Maonlai, Damien Rice, Lisa Hannigan, The Kíla boys, Paddy Casey, Mundy etc.

I just picked up my ticket, can't wait for this

Just looking at tickets for this. Whats the difference between "attendee accessible seating" and "accessible seating"?

Is all seating upstairs I take it?

No great chatter about this gig - coming up tomorrow night and I'm stoked - love Mic's music, and it looks like it'll be a special night...
Loads of guests- looks like Damien Rice, Lisa Hannigan & Gemma Hayes will be there

It's going to be fantastic, and a long gig too. They got a bar extension apparently (For the after party only I think though) This is from Claire, The Frames manager. The bands/artists that are going to be there.

mary janes and mundy, gemma, lisa, ronan, glen, matthew pale, acko, eoin glacklin will be opening the proceedings (hope the uk strikes mean everyone can get here ok!!), with frames and loads more folks taking over the events after the 'support' act..lots of really special guests coming along to sing and be a part of the night. there are actually still about 100 tickets left. i think people think its sold out already...much love. cx

Well worth Watching.

I'd be very surprised if Damien Rice turned up.

No he didn't which I though was surprising because he knew Mic, Either did Lisa Hannigan, again surprised me because they were very close.

Dr.Winston O'Boogie

What an unbelievable gig, knew it was going to be a special night but that surpassed all expectations. Never been to a gig that lasted that long but not once did I wish it would end so I could sit down, every single moment was pure magic.

It was like been at the greatest funeral session ever (10 years later).

Ami was great tho.

Absolutely amazing gig.. I was very young when Mic died and i hadnt really heard of him until recently but ever since ive been listening to his songs day in day out. Lastnight is by far the best show i have ever attended and its gonna be very hard to beat ! Fair play to all the artists who played, and fair play to Glen for putting all together.
