The website doesnt appear to be working??

Ekano · 11-09-2017 6:37pm

Anyone buy tickets for the Ear Den? Sounds like a bit of craic. I'm hoping to see bon Iver or some members of the national in various combinations but it will be interesting regardless.

passed up on this as going to The National but let us know how it goes..

UsedToWait · 13-09-2017 12:38pm

Just posting on the off chance that there's anyone with two (reasonably decent) seats for Bon Iver who'd prefer to stand?

I'm going either way, but would prefer seating.
Can meet you there...

Zardoz · 13-09-2017 3:45pm

I have 2 seats for Bon Iver and would like to swap for The National if anyone is interested .

maximoose · 13-09-2017 3:49pm

Raging I missed the free tickets earlier for Big Red Machine.

Going to Bon Iver and Mona Lo, may check out the documentary screening in Triskel Christchurch on the sat too. Wish I was staying Sunday as well now wouldn't mind that free Ships gig!

BullBlackNova · 14-09-2017 11:52am

Have tickets for Big Red Machine, Bon Iver, Ear Den and the National.

Planning on taking in Autre Monde and Sorcha Richardson on the Music Trail on Friday.

Have tickets to New Jackson/Donal Dineen for Friday night but reckon I won't make it over on time after the Bon Iver gig which is a little irritating but only €5 so not the end of the world. Cinema also clashes which is a shame.

Music trail Saturday has RSAG and Bantum so hoping to catch some of that, but believe there is overlap with the National.

Sunday then I'm considering Peter Broderick sings Arthur Russell, Ships and maybe something else if there's any freebies/pop ups going on.

Very excited now!

BurtMacklin · 14-09-2017 12:10pm

I have tickets to Bon Iver and The National. Can't wait for both.

Really want to go the PEOPLE gig Friday at 5pm but can't seem to get tickets. Tickets are free and they have been giving them out via social media in Cork City. Not in Cork so can't avail of this. Does anyone know if you can get them anywhere else? I've msg'd them on FB but I was told to keep an eye out on social media to win them is all.

maximoose · 14-09-2017 12:11pm

They went on 'sale' (for free you just had to go through checkout) yesterday but were gone in a flash sadly

BurtMacklin · 14-09-2017 12:12pm

Ah no, really. Damn it. Was it on Sounds From A Safe Harbour website or Live at St Lukes?

On the off chance anyone has spares let me know please.

maximoose · 14-09-2017 12:14pm

They were on here

And I just noticed more went up 2 hours ago and sold out again, feck sake :pac:

BurtMacklin · 14-09-2017 1:08pm

Dammit. Going to leave it open all day in work and refresh every now and again.

whatever76 · 14-09-2017 1:14pm

keep an eye on the FB page as well - lots of announcement being posted there

BurtMacklin · 14-09-2017 1:28pm

listen to a bit of it live last night - good to know it can be played back..

SteelyDanJalapeno · 15-09-2017 8:27am

Last night's show was fantastic if a little short, I reckon 60 minutes max, removing the composition without Lisa at the start then it was like 45 minutes......

BurtMacklin · 15-09-2017 9:31am

Is the Bon Iver gig being live streamed?

Did anyone go to the Justin Vernon & Sean Carey piano set in Cork School Of Music?

It was phenomenal.

Was the highlight of the festival for me.

whatever76 · 19-09-2017 1:34pm

Such a cool festival to have in city - really hope it comes back - to think of the cool artists we had in city over weekend and having cillian murphy behind it as well . Wow !

Any one go to the peter Broderick gig actually ?

Mushy · 19-09-2017 3:30pm

One of the headline acts appear to be coming back for a St Luke's gig. Can't see it being Lisa hannigan based on the excitement as she has done it before.

maximoose · 19-09-2017 3:37pm

Interesting - being announced tomorrow morning!

Justin Vernon said he'd be back to Cork at the school of music. Here's hoping.

That's poor, she's done it before so wasn't worth an announcement to say they'll announce another act.

None of the other headliners would play St Lukes ,they are far too big for that.

That's what would have made it worthy of announcing the announcement though. And in fairness, both acts were far too big for the opera house.

In saying that, Lisa hannigan in that venue is great. If people are considering it...go!

Yep I was there, overall I'm glad I went but there was nothing too exciting there.

Room 1 was R.S.A.G. a fantastic 1 piece drummer / 1 man band that blew me away, he played later on Saturday in Sextant aswel.

Room 2 was Slow Moving Clouds, again very enjoyably if a little too contrasting to the last act 2 mins before.

Room 3, I can't remember the acts name, 2 rappers and artistic dance. This wasn't my bag. maybe rusango family was there name.

Room 4, was Lisa Hannigan in the secret Garden, that was great but I had just seen her Thursday.

Room 5, was Graham Dunning experimenting with mixing sounds from ping pong balls and house, again not really my bag.

Room 6, was a shared space between Talos, David Kitt, Christof Van Der wen, jack o rourke and a few more. This was pass the guitar, 1 song each, it was nice and intimate but the layout was poor in this room....

Room 7 was the meal, supplied by Cafe Paradiso, food was okay, the service was awful.

That was Rusangano Family, a trio from Limerick/Clare. Dancers were Jessica Dessner's crew presenting 'Space for the Liberty Muse', a performance that they also did at the Firkin Crane and St Peters over the weekend, afaik.

Room 6 also had Rosie Carney and Lilla Vargen. Agree with you about the layout (and the service for the food...)

Rusangano Family, RSAG and Graham Dunning were my favourites. Enjoyed the song circle too. It was a cool idea though, I must say, if I wasn't seeing Bon Iver and the National separately, I might have been slightly peeved that there wasn't some involvement by them.

I expected the Dessners to perform with Lisa Hannigan or some other act, or an acoustic set from Justin Vernon. As it were, all of these things happened elsewhere at free events.

Now I got to all of them (except Hannigan but wouldn't be to my taste anyway) so I was happy to see something different, but if Ear Den was my only gig of the weekend...

Yeah similar to this I got to all the Opera House gigs so I wasnt too annoyed none of Justin or the Dessners didn't turn up (even thou they did in the Crane), alot of people around me were expecting them too thou.
