    Coming up to that time of year, where lots of people have shows to attend to during the summer.

    So who is everyone planning to see?

    I've been currently going to more and more as the years pass, and I managed to bag tickets for a couple upcoming. I might book a few more, but I will see for the time being.

    My current list is as follows;

    Phil Coulter - Olympia Theatre 11/05/2012
    Red Hot Chili Peppers - Croke Park 26/06/2012
    The Stone Roses - Phoenix Park 05/06/2012
    Snow Patrol/Florence - Phoenix Park 08/06/2012
    Feeder - Academy 03/06/2012
