The slightly-overrated-but-still-very-good Josh Ritter.

- Dave.

This is Syd_Vicious speaking...

I saw it twice. The first time The Frames were on. Wasn't too bad.

The second time Nina Hynes was on. She was brilliant. You could see she had bucket loads of talent plus the small setting helped to make it very memorable.

Certainly one of the best shows on Irish TV

This has been Syd_Vicious speaking...

Good show except for all of Glen Hansards smug ginger input.

Josh Ritter was decent as was Nina Hynes last week. The reason for having them all play in a Dingle church escapes me but whatever.

Does anyone know who else has/will appear(ed) on the series?

The series has featured the frames,damien rice,
nina hynes,interference,damien dempsey, josh ritter,

Some of the acts also on it are mundy,gemma hayes,mark geary,colm querney(i think),paddy casey

for the guy who really liked josh ritter his album the golden age of radio is in tower for €10

i watched Damien Rice on it a while back , would have watched Josh Ritter if i knew he was going to be on it.

Mossy Monk · 07-04-2003 1:53am

do RTÉ repeat this at any stage and how long has it been on for?

i would check Digiguide but the damn thing needs a new registration code and my credit card has nothing to give me until tomorrow

DerekD Goldfish · 07-04-2003 11:06pm

Its been on for six weeks and is going on for another good few i think about 10. Its moved to wendsday this week at 11something this week it has Jerry Fish(of mudbug and an emotional fish fame) and Cateal Cineach(female singer songwriter)
P.S I know its spelt wrong
