Everyone goes apeshit about Black Sabbath not actually being Black Sabbath without the drummer but everyone is grand with Gedge and his backing band...

the support band were fucking mental altogether! met them afterwards-they were sound

the weddos sounded excellent! but I thought the whole thing wasn't loud enough, the gigs in TBMC used to be bangers! what happened? did the residents complain or something??

Just back from Galway.
Saw them at The Róisín Dubh last night.
Front row pogo action galore. Great gig.
