friday 11th august? im presuming its saturday these tickets go onsale...

sweet.....:icon_sunn

Might be worth the trip.

well I know, I can manage the 10mins walk from work that night :smiley36:

Go for it Sean, of you were at his gig from Xmas 2002 you'll know the audience was quiet. Yes, non talkers at a gig, it's rare nowadays.

just called them to get times and they're on sale now (in the past few minutes) on 021 427 0022

yay i just got 4 tickets!!!!

wooooo hoooo and to think i travelled all the way to edinburgh to see damien in march cos i thought he wasnt gonna do an irish gig - let alone a cork gig!!!!

Go on Damooo you know you want to do a Belfast gig :)

thats what you call a sly marketing gimmick

Is it me or are those ticket prices unreasonably expensive? If I were to go, it would wind up costing over $50 for one ticket with the exchange rate + whatever fees. That's crazy.

And Childish as a B-Side? Could he not give us something new?

No, Simon, I will not quit my moaning ;)

its no barbara streisand, and its over a hundred miles away

Damn it!!
I wanna go, but alas I'm in exile

up the rebels.

gwan baiiiii

I'm not going, Glttrgrrl is right; forty quid is too expensive. Anyway, I've seen him about fifteen times already.

All funding is deferred until Macbook is procured.

Also, Cork are sh*t... They were beaten by Waterford. That's just embarrassing.

*sneers* i've got a mac book, nuh nuh nuh nuh nuh

Where did you see him for the first time, sean?
x

NOW hell has officially frozen over :smiley16: what's it been? like 2002 since he played Cork?

yep, same venue, between Xmas & New Years, bloody fantastic gig that was.
must toddle off, Vyvienne playing here tonight...I'm late.

Well I won't pretend that I'm not envious of your Macbook, but the last time I had enough money for one I spent it all on Gibson LG-0, US made in 1967. They don't make acoustic guitars like that anymore. It actually makes Damien's Lowden look and sound like a bucket of monkey spunk. I'm sure it's nothing compared to your Macbook though. :smiley20:

I think the first time I saw him would have been on the initial run of the O tour. I would have gone to the Juniper shows, but I was busy being eleven and whatnot.

well it's about time then! did you get tickets, dan?

have fun at vyv's gig. come back and give us a review after

I did. 3rd row centre in the balcony. They werent selling front row balcony at the time. It'll do. :o

Back from Vyv's show too. No support, just her (& 5 fellow band members). Lovely show but who ever organised the table/seating arrangement should be fired, haha. Initially they should have kept them to the front but they had them down the sides -fixed them before they came on though.
Nice tunes by herself, especially the second song "inheritance". Nice reaction from the crowd, singalong at the end. Finished at 11.

i didnt get great seats for minneapolis, and i thought about trying the balcony instead. i think in a smaller venue you could get an even better overview than further back or off to the side on the floor. birdseye view so to speak. is the cork opera house very large?

sounds like vyv's gig was lovely

I love that song. I think it actually is called 'She can't wait to get her hands on the inheritance'.

great... a gig in Ireland... Ill be right there...

DAMO COME BACK TO DETROIT! im going through some serious withdraws since may.

No, Im happy for you guys though, Damien anywhere is a blessing to all.

last time damien played in cork was december 2002... so it's definitely time that he came back here...

Right on man, you said it better then I ever could.

And he chooses a day that I'm away :(

Vyv's playing up here on Wednesday. I'm going to Fridge on Thursday, Dan Deacon on Friday and Slint on Saturday. I think I'll probably skip it.

tut tut Ian.
What else would you be doing on a Wed night?

Hopefully watching the Arsenal hammer some Czechs.

i wish i could go, after my years of belly-aching that he never plays cork, but i'm going to marlay park and i do NOT have the money for another gig!!


i'm just gonna hang around the stage door for a little while to see what i can see :smiley1:

called them earlier to get 2 more tickets for some friends. With seats about 1000.
looks like its close to being sold out. Can't but 2 together on the net but can over the phone.
Also got Declan O'Rourke tickets for Dec 14 off them too.
Sweet.....:smiley32:
