every year there's a gig on in Nolan Park, Kilkenny - Dylan and Paul Simon to name a few- and they usually pick a local act to play at it. does anyone know how this act is picked?

It probably involves a big hat and a good hard game of hurling.

theres nothing they love more down there than a good hard game of hurling

Was Shania Twain there last year? seem to remember that for some reason, the hurleys can have her...

She was about three years ago or so.
Last year was James Taylor, Bryan Ferry and Bob Geldof.
