This is rapidly coming up and I am looking forward to it - if more for the supports than the main band.

The last Abigail Williams album is very good. Not gone on everything before that - a bit of a mixed bag.

Is the main lad, and I had to look his name up, Ken Bergeron travelling to Ireland alone and playing with local Irish lads as his backing band?

I only ask this because, having lunch with a few people earlier, one lad said to me that a buddy of his was playing with a metal band in The Pav and showed me the poster for this gig. I assumed he meant Soothsayer or Body Drinkers but he said that he thinks the fella that he knows is playing (guitar....?) in the main band from America.

Seems plausible as it appears that the band is Bergeron's project. Thar being said, this lad isn't into metal and wouldn't be going to this gig so he might have it all wrong or I might have completely misunderstood.

Bryan O'Sullivan has played with Abigail Williams live on some tours and on studio recordings for a number of years.
And he's a local lad for sure.
