Really looking forward to this, they are a real guilty pleasure of mine!
Missed the Dublin gig last time but the DVD was uploaded to YouTube before and looked like a great show.

I'm surprised they've never made an appearance at EP yet, memorable and cheesy enough.

Stoked to be seeing them again!
The Olympia gig was amazing.

Anyone heading to this Sunday?

Going to Steely D on the Monday but bought a ticket for H&O just yesterday, 79.50 for standing. A bit steep, hope it's good.

It's an insane weekend coming up for gigs.

The Princess Bride

Yes, ridiculous amount of gigs this week.
Train last night, Chic and Chaka Khan tonight, Barbara Dickson nationwide all week, Aimee Mann in Dublin Saturday, Hall and Oates Sunday( only one I'm definitely going to), Steely Dan Monday...

I need to stop looking at venues to see who's playing, because I'll be out every single night at this rate.

I literally cannot wait for this.

Gonna be unreal!!!

Mrs Shuttleworth

Heads up anyone going, Chris Isaak is on stage 6.50!

Must be an 8/8.15 start for the lads.

gilmour

The Olympia was outstanding. Fantastic musicians and a setlist that is just tune after tune, should be another cracker tonight.

Sound is awful. Standing on ground floor. Disgraceful.

emo72

I can't go for that... No can do...

No I can barely hear it. Joke.

mdwexford

I loved it.

Bucket list stuff. Heroes.

The Princess Bride

I loved the music, they were brilliant and am so glad I didn't miss this.
And would go again.

I'm not a fan of TAFKATP* and tonight I remembered why.
The sound quality and lack of sync with the central screen was an annoying distraction, no excuse in this day and age.
I much prefer the intimacy of Vicar Street and The Olympia.

Did anyone else think the saxophonist looked like Fr Jack?
And that the drummer looked very emotional?



*The arena formerly known as The Point.

Mrs Shuttleworth

I loved it, thought they were excellent, though bad speaker feedback at the start of "I Can't Go" and Daryl looked royally p*ssed for a few minutes. Not sure what the sound complaints overall are?

A lot of young millennials there (18-21 and not with parents) which was great but surprising.

Joekers

Was great, have to say I can't Go For That sound was terrible but apart from that we thoroughly enjoyed it

peneau

The sound for Chris Issac was very good so I'm a bit bemused at to why H2O's sound was very, very, poor. Daryl hardly sung a note all night and the ones I did manage to hear he wasn't very good, disappointed by this performance

gilmour

Worst sound quality at any gig i've been at in my life and i've been to some shockers. Quite impressive how bad it was and continued to remain bad.

Cowboys sitting behind that desk.

Leilak

Big fan of hall and Oates just back from gig tonight, think the sound system was borrowed from the local parish hall and should have been given the last rites! Daryl couldn't hit the high notes and the lip syncing was way off. Ah well at least we saw grandad out of Mrs browns boys playing the sax😎😎😎😎😎

Outlaw Pete

Sound was bad alright.

Missed the Olympia gig and heard the sound at it was fantastic so quite surprising that it wasn't great in that regard.

Wish I'd gone to the LG gig now. Damn it!
