    At the moment 2015 is quiet for my standards.
    Only 3 gigs in Ireland
    Olafur Arnalds
    Indiana
    St Vincent

    But I have planned 2 trips abroad:
    London in March to see T'Pau and Covenant/Analog Angel
    Brussels in May for 2 nights of Einsturzende Neubauten

    Was at Olafur Arnalds last night. Pretty good. Was wondering how people in the crowd had heard of him? In my case, I heard Max Cooper remix Poland and found out that way.

    For me, it was a recommendation from 2 friends, one of them a musician who I value her opinion. I had a great time in the concert too!!!

    Jan 15- Slipknot/Korn- 3arena
    June 15- Fleetwood Mac-3arena
    Apr 15- WWE Live- 3arena
    July 15- ACDC-Aviva Stadium
    July 15- The Darkness- Daytripper Waterford
    Oct 15- Grand Prix Darts- Citywest Hotel
    Nov 15- Motley Crue/Alice Cooper- Manchester Arena Manchester
    Nov 15- U2- 3Arena
    Dec 15- Def Leppard/Whitesnake/Black Star Riders- 3arena
    tomorrow night- Aslan- Crystal Waterford

    its great to look back at what was a tragic year personally for me and say gigwise it was brillent and it will never be beaten

    so for 2016 so far i have Premier League Darts, Muse, Byran Adams and Stone Roses to look forward too
