    Don't know if many on here are interested ,but Dan Reed from Dan Reed Network is playing a solo gig in Whelans on Sunday 6th.

    To me he's not just a great singer with a great voice but a brilliant songwriter.I saw him last time he was here and he didn't disappoint.

    If you're free sunday I would recommend you go.

    Yes i would love to see the band back here, but who knows it may happen soon ??
    It is baffling why there's no real advertising about his solo gig,hence my post here, lol.

    In recent years ,actually the past 5 years whenever he hasa been touring he plays Belfast and hasnt been to Dublin in about 5 yrs.

    I asked him on FB few years back why he wouldnt come back to play Dublin and he said it was because of the "recession" and thought no one had any money .

    But hey, he's changed his mind this time.

    He stated on FB on Friday that he wants to make his Dublin gigs an annual event and requested people spread the word.

    Thanks for that . I had a look at his site and it shows hes playing a friday night which is good. Hopefully more people will be in attendance. I spoke to him after his last gig and he said it was difficult to get any day bar a sunday to play whelans, they would only give him a sunday.

    Thanks Poundhound, you beat me to it.
    Hopefully he will get a good crowd tomorrow night, the last 2 gigs, crown wise, were disappointing, he was though his usual brilliant self .

    For those people reading this and dont know who Dan Reed is , it is THE same Dan Reed , from the Dan Reed Network, go see him , you wont be disappointed,

    I took some photos of Dan playing Whelan's last year. He seen one and contacted me requesting to use it as his Facebook profile picture. Of course I agreed. He's using it now.
    Chuffed.
