Wouldn’t have thought they would fill Iveagh Garden though. Had quick google there and no mention about new album on the way.

At one gig there was a girl who literally had her back to the stage for the whole thing yapping away. Also the sound seems to be quite low. I guess because it's in the middle of a residential area. But coupled with the constant chatter it's a bad combo. I recommend going right up front to avoid both of these issues.
