Though as cruhoortwunk says, as the Jan 2015 gig is billed as "The Mark Lanegan Band" I would imagine he will be playing his new album, Blues Funeral & his heavier band material.

He even sat out down the back to sign copies of posters and get photos taken after the gig. The support act ( Sean and Zander) was really cool too. I didn't even know that venue existed in Galway!!!!

MrJangles wrote: » Fantastic gigs overall, really enjoying the electronic sound on the new songs, pity about some people who just talk through the whole thing though, it's been mentioned before but I just don't get why people pay nearly €30 for a ticket when they have no interest in the gig. Great surprises last night were Low & Dead On You (the latter very very rarely played, if ever, as far as I Know).

MrJangles wrote: » Yep, Dead On You played on Sunday. I'd say there was about 7 or so added/different songs played on Sunday including When Your Number Isn't Up, Dead On You, Low, Revival, Killing Season & I Am The Wolf, plus maybe one or two others I'm missing. Played until 11pm on Sunday, I think Sat was cut short (10.30) as the club night in the Academy starts at 11 on Saturdays.

RolandGoose wrote: » Ah, that sucks! I'm glad you got a good sound tho. I felt like strangling the damn sound engineer all night. He just seemed very incapable of getting it right. Pity because the set list was pretty sweet. As a result of the ****ty sound I think the audience just got restless and started yapping, there were loads around me rabbiting on, I couldn't really blame them, the gig never stood a chance of taking off due to the dreadful mix! I'll definitely catch Mark the next time he's around, the more stuff i listen to the more I like him, incredible musician! Hopefully its in a better venue next time! damn if I could turn back time I'd be at that Sugar Club show! Did anybody hang around to talk to him after? I was so pissed I just bailed outta there!
