Button Factory hold what 600? Double that is Vicar St, The Olympia and The Ambassador

Though there is 100% a need for a 4,000 to 6,000 space in Dublin just not for Chat Pile

Think he said the new song was called Family Funeral(s?)

Show in Cork was a cracker, great crowd and amazing sound, my first gig in Cork in 18 years  :-X  will be back

I hope the support bands in Dublin enjoyed their sets and that the promoter thought it was a great idea for them to run over so SG had to cut their set short (and the sound for Adam's vocals was diabolical)  :eyeroll:

Belfast is:
Doors - 19:00
Microtonal - 19:30
Adrenachromehearts - 20:30
Frayed Ends - 21:30
Stampin' Ground - 22:30

So that's me out, bus back to Dublin is 23:00, glad I saw before I got on my bus to Belfast

Might go to Jamie's show now ...

Thanks, will be at both those shows so good to know

Hopefully the Belfast show is done in time for the bus I booked back to Dublin ;D

He replied to me ages ago blaming gremlins but it's still €22  >:(

With the new customs rules it would likely come to over €32 for postage (€22 + €3 customs + €7 An Post fee)

The digital version is on Bandcamp will have to see when I am back in the UK and get it delivered to a friend/our London office

EDIT: Apparently there is a 10% discount with GROOVY10

Saw a clip from an interview from the guy who started Sonisphere, he left Live Nation (Download) to get it up and running with the intention of making it a traveling thing. He said it was not too expensive at first and then Live Nation started twisting the knife and massively outbidding them, quadrupling costs for booking some big bands so they had to give up.

I imagine they'll do a show in the O2 in London for the live recording now, power cut in Paris and Bruce under the weather at Knebworth? They need a clean take really

Not to give away any secrets but all you need to do is go to the ticket page and add "?did=prompre" to the end of the URL to access the MCD presale for any gig

Don't some of the Euro festivals have a headliner and then a smaller band after them?
