Used Nutgrove a few times
You heading to The Cure?
Lewis Capaldi all but confirmed for the Picnic after tonight
I wish. Capaldi for her birthday.
CMAT is an unfunny eejit. Like the crowd wasnāt rising to her whatsoever this evening. Iād bet that she will end up in the cunt of the year contender in the next while. Her music is shite, best of luck to her.
Capaldi did a set for 1hr10. A fair amount of the songs he had to stop himself laughing. Maybe itās a part of the tourettes, I donāt know. If I got caught for ā¬200 a pop or that Iād be seething, I most certainly didnāt pay that. In general heās amazing live. She reckons he was laughing cause people were proposing up the front. Lewis mentioned he seen someone propose alright, so maybe sheās onto something.
Would I go again? Possible in about five years time.
Great show from The Cure.
The brother was at it.
Texted me giving out about Rockshore being the only lager there.
Thatās mad about CMAT I think her music is great - catchy, great lyrics - and I love her fuck you attitude. Can understand how sheād rub fellas up the wrong way but I think thatās the whole idea.
Iām not a fan but sheās only going to get bigger. She could end up headlining Slane
Ha!
Can you imagine the outrage from the cranks on TFK ![]()
The Blizzards opening the show and then a spoken word segment with Lottie Ryan and Eliza OāDonovan ![]()
Itās the same at the Malahide Castle gigs, Rockshore is the only lager. Itās awful stuff.
Long set?
2hours 20 minutes.
8 (eight) songs off Disintegration. Surprisingly played nothing off their recent record which is very good.
Yeah itās shite. I had three pints of it and it was manageable until the last 50ml.
Iād no interest in drinking much anyway. Didnāt want to have to go for a piss every 40 minutes and miss a song
My heart fairly sank when i walked in through the gates last night and seen all they had was that piss.
You can get that dynamic at these outdoor/festivally summer concerts where someoneās who on the ascent in their career has an aul 40-minute support set for a more established mainstream/headliner, the crowd donāt really pay them much attention, they may not be fully invested themselves as a result but itās all part of the dance.
The Cure should be headlining Slane.
@binkybarnes would it be ok/advisable to park on Clonliffe Road for a Fairview Park gig tonight?
Yeah. Down the Ballybough end your only 10 mins walk away. Safe enough.
