    BREXIT

    Can't beat a politician for hypocrisy. Second referendum is deemed undemocratic while asking parliament to vote on the same agreement twice (and possible three, four five times) is ok?

    BREXIT

    I don't really understand why the idea of a second referendum is so unpalatable. May says it's undermining democracy, but people vote in general elections and change their minds from one party to another all the time. Surely not allowing people to change their minds is anti-democratic. At the...

    What gig did you go to last night?

    Yeah, first time I saw them was in Whelan's in 2011 I think. Saw them in NCH around 3 years ago as well. Just incredible musicians and the interplay between instruments is superb. Played this as the encore - one of my favourite pieces of music from the last decade Sya6Jh2pwzA

    What gig did you go to last night?

    Punch Brothers in NCH on Monday night. My third time seeing them and they were fantastic as always. Could take or leave the albums, but they are amazing live.

    What gig did you go to last night?

    Nobody else at Grouper? I was at the early show. It was a great mix of the dronier, early stuff and the new piano material. Really enjoyed it.

    The best gig ever to take place in Ireland ever

    Best gig ever in Dublin was the Boredoms in the Village in 2007. I was at the Boadrum77 thing in NYC earlier that year, and the Village show was even better. Shame they've not come back since. Honourable mentions to At The Drive-In in TBMC in 2000, Battles first show in Whelan's in I think 2006...

    Comprehensive List of Bands You're Glad You Saw

    Portico Quartet in Whelan's. Saw a post on here about it, sounded good and wasn't doing anything that night so decided to head along. They were brilliant, and have been one of my favourite acts since. Lali Puna in TBMC. I quite liked their first album, and went along on a whim. They were over...

    Comprehensive List of Bands That I've Seen but Wish I Hadn't

    I've been to plenty of mildly disappointing gigs but Mum in Vicar St was absolutely dreadful. I loved the first album, and have hated everything since. Yer wan's childish voice just drove me wrong. Animal Collective supported and were shit also. Went with a mate to a band called The Concretes in...

    Rate all of their albums

    Although it has my favourite 'Mats track - Answering Machine - I always find myself skipping Tommy Gets His Tonsils Out and Gary's Got a Boner. I always play Tim right through. Also Tim was the first album of theirs I got, for 99p on cassette in a HMV sale back in 1993.

    The 'bands *i* get but no-one else does' thread

    Either the first or the fourth. The first one, Glee, has Drinking in LA on it. Sounds like a compilation with so many different styles going on. The most recent one is called The Garden and is probably my favourite. More consistent, and has 2 of my favourite tracks of the last few years
