Gigs for 2025 - post your reviews here

Caught Mick Flannery and Susan O'Neil at Sligo Live last night. What a beautiful gig 😎

Have been to see Mick a couple of times, never experienced SON live.

Anyone at Vicar Street tonight, or getting to their gigs over the next few weeks are really in for a special night.

For me only minor dissapointment was gig not running for another song or two (came in at just under 90 mins), but I'm (very) old school on that!

Also bonus of having 3 members of the Fynches do a short support set. Very impressed and with their full band touring in the coming weeks, well worth a nosey.

It was a really special night in Vicar St. High quality support act in Valerie June, kind of psychedelic blues/folk/funk, would go out of my way to see her again. Mick and Susan and band were wonderful. Anyone going tonight will have a great time.

Saw them in Connollys of Leap a few weekends back, they are always incredible but this run of intimate shows are special.

Enjoy Hotblack. Don't think there was support.

I could be wrong beacuse it was a night out that got messy and I was stopped by the gardai. Four pints after the gig in Cassidys wasn't such a great decision on top of a bunch of Big Bunny 6% IPA and bongs.

Whiteouts. Wouldn’t wish them on my worst enemy. (FYI - They’re called greenouts in the US/Canada).

So this is my belated tuppence worth on seeing Counting Crows last Tuesday in The Point.

My background is as a 90's teenager "August and Everything After" soundtracked a lot - that and "Recovering the Satellites" - somehow had only seen them once before - at their (in my recollection) ill-fated Oxegen 2008 appearance - my memory of this is patchy as was middle of a 3 day session - but a quick google reveals at least one fairly awful video from that gig on a page titled "5 worst Oxegen performances"

anyway, back to Tuesday - I had never been to The Point in that format - small standing area, tiered seats around it and the upstairs balconies closed - standing ticket price was 80 all-in but I heard the seats were expensive, that and a Tuesday night gig meant I would say it was fairly poorly sold

the gig itself I thought was good - Adam's voice really good I thought - now maybe can't hit some of the high notes but not really noticable tbh - I thought the band were fairly tight - and while the setlist didn't 100% suit me (5 new songs but I was prepared as it has been essentially the same all tour - but also 5 off "August.." so that's ok) - this gig will encourage me to check out more of their stuff - Adam did have a sit down at times during some songs but at 60 I think that is fair enough

I'm not sure I would go again if they came back in a year or two (unless they were doing an "August and Everything After" tour) but I'm glad I saw them and wiped out that Oxegen 2008 memory!

I'd be curious to hear what others thought, especially those who've seen them many times

Hope you're ok dasdog.

Not into the gange myself but have to admit things have occasionally got out of hand on the falling down water.
