I hope she doesnt give up the LIVE performances as I've enjoyed her gigs many times most recently Vicar St 2019. Hopefully this announcement is a simple combination of whiskey and twitter and she doesnt give up all love performances.

I know covid measures will increase the costs significantly over a normal gig, but thats surely about 5-10 times the cost it should be. Especially bearing in mind its going to be fairly low-cost Irish artists playing, not expensive international headline acts. And when there are no marketing costs to pay for the gig, which is usually also a significant expense.

The issue reportedly centres around the bill allegedly presented by the promoters, which Dublin Live understands is for €670,000. With just 3,500 tickets for the event going on sale, the average cost will be just under €200 per ticket to put on the show. A source told Dublin Live: “It looks like the concert is off after the row. “They (Department of Culture officials) didn’t take it too well with the bill they were presented with.“You’d get U2 and Coldplay together at your wedding for that price.
