Great gig.

greenspurs

I wonder will they have new material by then ?

Their gigs at the moment are usually an hour long, so id be hoping we'd have a few new songs by next summer to lengthen the set ?

Bunny Colvin

Heading to this myself.

Hotblack Desiato

Could be a new album out by then, you never know.

New album already in the bag. They finished it off during the summer when they took a couple of weeks off from gigging. Got my tickets too and can not wait because try as I might I just cannot secure Vicar Street tickets in Dec.

Is this sold out already?

Some still available, I just checked. Not many though, they announced 3 hours ago on IG that there are only a few left.

Bump.
Got the email yesterday that it's postponed, as expected.
No new date yet but I'd expect it to be put back a full year.

A great doc with them presented by John Kelly was shown over the last week and should be still up on the Rte Player.

Gloomtastic!

Rescheduled to 3rd July 2021! :mad:

Del Griffith

I can't go the new date so if anyone wants 4 tickets let me know, otherwise will be going for a refund

Not Just Mustard unfortunately. Aoife Nessa Frances and Wunderhorse.

My forth gig of the week tonight ;) but really looking forward to this one. Haven't been to Iveagh Gardens since the Pixies but its a nice little setup.

Stillill42

Ah, should be a good one. They must be on a high after Glasto and the reception they got. Proper homecoming. Really looking forward to it.

briandebum

They were one of the highlights of primavera for me, current set is awesome & imagine it will be buzzing back in dublin.

Stillill42

There we go.

jimosterberg

Can't wait for this! Looks like the weather is clearing up too

Stillill42

I love the Iveagh Gardens. In, Kerala kitchen curry, pint, on the grass listening to Aoife Nessa in 5 minutes flat.

flasher0030

Stillill42

They were fecking unbelievable. You'll have a ball. Get up near the front. Great craic.

dasdog

Helped that there were no drunken boggers or inquisitive nordies.

Awesome! As said, get to the front, avoid the middle bump covering the wires if you can and go mental. Wish I was going again tonight, enjoy. 😎

Heading to tonight's gig. Is the grass covered with those large mats they sometimes use or is it gonna be a muckfest?

Stillill42

Yeah, about 2/3s covered, a bit of grass at the back, nice for sitting around on early doors if you get a bit of sun. Ideal set up.

Phishwax

Any idea what time it finished?

Lovely cheers

Murdoc90

First time in iveagh gardens, an absolute dream! Tickets scanned, piss stop and a pint in front of stage all in the space of 15mins. Band were on top form. Joy to witness!

BangBeater

Superb gig. Venue and band. Really enjoyed it. Was right up the front. Tis fun up there! Enjoy anyone going tonight!

Del Griffith

Ticketmaster refunded my 2020 tickets for this but I never asked them to and they never emailed me. Found out at the door.

Seemed to be a few in the same boat.
