OMG, I so want two tickets for Damien Rice, to go with my gf. Anyone in need of a clean liver?

But seriously, he only performs once in a blue moon and it's sooo hard to get tickets. Not fair. PM me if you have a spare ticket or two. Optimistic, I know.

I got in to the sold out National gig at the last SFSH by queueing up on the night. Eventually got let in half an hour before they took to the stage. Might be worth a try.

About 20-30 other people did the same and as far as I know everyone got in. We had to pay of course.

Thanks for the tip!

Paying is not a problem, but the distance to Cork is as I don't live in Ireland anymore.

If we don't get in, it will be a let down. I'll sure discuss the option with her. Maybe book another gig (not on the 13th) and give the queue a go.

I understand he has a new album due in the next few months, nothing official yet, but he has 3 new tracks on his social media in recent weeks, and lots of recording has already been done, so it certainly looks positive for a new album, and i am sure, a big tour will follow that release, with more easily accesible venues for you.

fafy · 10-06-2019 5:01pm

Should be the next batch of announcements for SFASH soon, they mentioned more coming last week.

Thanks a million!

A new album and tour? WOW! That would be utterly fantastic!! I really should videotape my gf's reaction to this. (but won't

)

Possibly a totally wild rumour, but a few people have mentioned Thom Yorke as a possible act at the festival. He announced more solo gigs today, in late September and October, that would be something if he was at this festival.

Hmm, that's me interested again...

BullBlackNova · 19-06-2019 3:24pm

My money is on a play or something of that sort taking place over 3 days before/after the festival.

Last time, a lot was made of Cillian Murphy and Enda Walsh being involved in the programming but I don't remember them actually doing an awful lot other than hosting some Q&A sessions.

fafy · 19-06-2019 4:05pm

Very interesting. Ny guess is :
additional events + repeat events for Damien Rice & Feist. A lot of people were left dissapointed, several apologies issued adter the ticket disaster. It may have taken a while to make the arrangements, and now they have.

It says extended so this is likely to mean after the cirrent end date of Sunday September 15th.

Maybe - hopefully! They were posting about Feist during the week. Said that they were thrilled to have her, but said "Expect her to surprise us at other places and spaces throughout the weekend."

I guessed that was them making amends for everyone who missed out on tix but maybe they have something else planned.

I know COH are involved here but this isn't the first time that the ticketing fiasco has happened - surely for big events, they should use uticket or some other system. How hard could it be?

Cork Opera House has a drama event on from 16th to 21st, so they may need an alternate venue, Both Cyprus Avenue and Saint Lukes seem to be available.

fafy · 19-06-2019 6:02pm

Of course, they could start on Monday 10th for 7 days, and Venue is free on those days

Thomas Bartlett event and Swan Lake event look very interesting. This has always been a diverse festival, and it continues to be.

Yep, I love the fact that it continues to be totally unexpected and diverse - I likely won't be buying tickets to some of these (although La Force or Rosie Carney might be worth a look) but it's a great mix.

I just meant that on the back of the first announcement, there was some disappointment that it wasn't a repeat of 2017 with Bon Iver and the National. I had never expected it to be (though I did expect Big Red Machine, which I was wrong about). But adding Swan Lake or Caoimhin O Raghallaigh is unlikely to make someone who wanted Bon Iver any less disappointed!

Below is from the press release - might be interesting tbf!

On a new self-titled album, released by The Dwelling / Real World Records 13th September, they unite to create an LP of exceptional beauty.

Bartlett on piano and Ó Raghallaigh on Hardanger d'amore, will perform a special show as part of Sounds From a Safe Harbour at Live at St Luke’s on Saturday 14th September. Stay tuned for more details on this exciting new project.

Teaċ Daṁsa’s acclaimed production of Swan Lake/Loch na hEala makes it’s Cork debut from 10th to 12th September at Cork Opera House. The production premiered at the 2016 Dublin Theatre Festival, for which it won the Irish Times Best Production Award, captivating both audiences and critics alike, and has since toured extensively nationally, and internationally to Australia, New Zealand, Canada, Hong Kong, South Korea, UK, Germany, Denmark, Luxembourg and Moscow.

Performed by a company of 13 world-class performers, including actor Mikel Murfi and new cast member Rosaleen Linehan, Swan Lake/Loch na hEala is interwoven with storytelling, song and live music. Dublin based band Slow Moving Cloud’s score combines Nordic and Irish traditional music with minimalist and experimental influences. With powerful imagery, this Swan Lake is rooted in the Midlands of Ireland where ancient mythology and the modern world collide.

Defintely going to go for Swan Lake- with a modern take, Thomas Bartlett always worth a look, and might try for Rosie Carney also.

Could be busy for tomorrows onsale at 10am,
I hope they have sorted out the Cork Opera House online system, a disaster for Damien Rice & Feist.

There will not be another date. However, some tickets have already come up for sale, half thetickets were not sold, but held by festival organisers, so there is a chance more will come up

Only one of the two confirmed Everman gigs have been announced. Saturday September 14th has still not been announced, so very curious to see what this could be.

fafy · 18-08-2019 11:11am

The previously “sold out” Feist gig has about 40 tickets onsale now.

Just like Damien Rice, about half the tickets were held by festival organisers, and now some of these being released for sale.
