    The guys in the purple hats at the 3stage were bringing people stage side, interesting to see, but obviously you’re behind the speakers so you can’t hear the music very well.

    I decided to go way back for this one, up near big wheel, as needed to eat. Was very pleasantly surprised that no/limited chats around me. Really enjoyed her gig and had the crowd in her hand which given her age is something else

    Those EP washout articles from a few weeks back looking a bit off the mark!

    If anyone is tempted by the pizza place opposite kincara, don’t. Its vomit inducing sh1te. Absolutely **** awful.

    Completely empty is a bit of an exaggeration. There were a few bodies there at the start. Although I was getting flashbacks to the 2019 3 Stage with the small crowd size. It filled out a bit by the end thankfully.

    She has a great vocal, even if the band were total sh1te I might still listen to them

    I was, and the top half of me is today, what one might call well dressed

    Are any of the members of Ham Sandwich Liverpool supporters?? ,some atmosphere 😄😄😄

    Jamie Webster? Was he any good. Gutted I missed him.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2, Paid Member Posts: 3,384 ✭✭✭Genghis


    Thought she was great too. Spotify algorithm favoured her shuffling in to my ep23 list so had been looking forward to it. Was a bit worried for her at 5.55 as I counted 4 others in the tent. But like you say she drew a crowd and it worked well enough.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2, Paid Member Posts: 3,384 ✭✭✭Genghis


    Might mosey on up before beach boys so. One more Murphy's from the Stradbally Inn for the road ...

    Will be wearing a Rubber Soul Tee.

    This was a response to @fatfrog about Hannah Grae. My dodgy internet connection dropped the quote. I was coming back to edit it but this works just as well.

    There was a comment ages ago about last dinner party being the industry plant and the sheer number of phographers would back that up but they had a great but short set.

    Billie always uses a very heavy backing track, she only sings parts of each song.

    Nobody seems to want to call her out on it though.

    Impossible to run around the stage and jump up and down and also sing properly.
