[flashback]

I went to a Dire Straits gig, in the Point when I was about 10.

I thought it was deadly at the time. Loud guitar and cool riffs. But, I later learnt that Dire Straits were really uncool. I would try to say things like "But the Love Over Gold album has a really good track on it", and "he's a deadly guitar player", and I got looks like I had just contracted Syphilis. Ie, mainly pitiful yet slightly disgusted and scared.

UB40 in the RDS. I was about 11 or 12. While me and my mate went up to watch to gig the aul boy hung at the back reading his book in between bands got talking to a group of people after he warned them of plain clothes guards circulating while they were skinning up. In return for the info they gave him a couple of spliffs and got himself toasted for the gig. He only told me this about 2 years agos.

haha
they would have been seriously shit then. Would have been good to see in 1980 / 81 though.

I dare you to go over to eircore and say that. Dire Straits are the reason punk rock was invented.

















ps the first album I bought on Cd was Brothers in Arms.

 

[coast to coast]

i'm really ashamed of having gone to see The Seahorses at the Olympia years ago

morto

you think thats bad? i have all their singles (four of them). the shame... though they have one really good b-side called Falling Is Easy. don't have the album anymore, but its fucking cack. I was always trying to convince myself it was good cos John Squire was involved.

 

[xsteox]

minus the bear

you take that back dave!!!

 

[Stan Bowles]

the verve at slane..

Pffft, The Verve were an amazing band. They only went shite when Ashcroft went off and wrote Urban Hyms on his own. Nick McCabe rules.

If I remember correctly(which I doubt I do) they played played very little other than Urban Hymns, they did play on your own as an encore which kept me happy.

Yeah I guess in fairness the gigs after UH went massive weren't the best.

I saw them a couple of times just after they got back together and they were still playing old stuf like man called sun, brilliant gigs.
