Thanks for all the well wishing for the gig.. sorry I didn't get a chance to reply properly but my parent's internet access leaves a lot to be desired. I wasn't joking about the "wilds of Ireland" part last time
Anyway, this is the best I can offer for the gig. I was a bit too enraptured throughout to make any real effort at getting a proper pic or two..
Still, the colours are pwetty
Twas a great night. Otherwise known as a fucked up day topped by a great night!
The guy who offered us his apartment never came through so we had to get a hotel. The first place was simply put, the Hotel from Hell. We had to lift a part of the wall to get into the room - and I swear I am not exaggerating. The sheets were stained and the wall had dry rot. At that stage I was just in hysterics laughing.
I had noticed an Ibis straight across from it so I popped over and it was 13 quid cheaper to stay in that fancy place. Very nice I must say.
Then Melle's plane landed late and her underground train broke down at the second last stop so she had to get out and run for 20 minutes with a bunch of other fans while my sister and I were freaking out thinking we were going to miss the gig. Note to self: no smoking the wacky-baccy while waiting anxiously for girlfriend to turn up for gig, We literally walked in the door and they started up! Absolutely amazing gig, although it still doesn't top a full on show from them.
So yeah, threw up those pics of my Mam's 50th if anyone has 3 mins to waste and wants to look at a bunch of wasted Irish people dressed funny: Flickr goes Retro...
So that's about it from me.. how are you all doin?

It probably says a lot about me when I read the blurb and looked at the prices!
