Wedding Present venue change (1 Viewer)

[Davy Chase]

had a feeling it might be downsized from the Ambassador. pity though as I was kind of looking forward to seeing them in a theatre style venue. no matter though, probably better sound in tbmc anyway.

The Wedding Present's eighth Dublin gig was a most enjoyable one.
Nicely full although nowhere near an unpleasant jam. Very hot inside (no surprises there as it was positively tropical outside).

We got setlist 3 which had many highlights. Especially You Should Always Keep In Touch With Your Friends and Why Are You Being So Reasonable Now? (complete with deviation into Pourquoi.... halfway through). Not heard that one live since McGonagles in 1988.

Kennedy sounded far better than the 2005 version. Take Me was a delight.
They came on at 8:50pm and played until 10:15pm. Which enabled me to get the last train home thus ensuing I wake up in my own bed tomorrow as opposed to my sister's couch.

which means we missed half an hour. shite.
anyway they were really good, what we saw I enjoyed way more than the village gig.

yeah they came on a lot earlier than I thought. I only arrived 5 or 10 minutes beforehand.

Balls, knew we should have got their earlier. It was great anyway, I enjoyed watching the 30-somethings circle pit during Kennedy, very entertaining.

I stayed at the back. If I had tried to mosh I probably would have collapsed in exhaustion.

We were even sadder and sat upstairs, but at least we left with our dignity intact Paul.

I thought this was wonderful too. Like someone said above, Why Are You Being So Reasonable Now, You Should Always Keep In Touch With Your Friends and Everyone Thinks He Looks Daft sounded aces. I was dancing (like an idiot) at the back of the on again off again mosh pit. Dancing to the Wedding Present is much more fun than moshing. No one really actually dances in Dublin, do they?

In a lame, fanboyish kind of way, I think Terry di Castro is stunning.

Take Me was a delight.

geebags! my fav weddos song, i was just way too tired to attend this. i wore my weddos t-shirt yesterday though.

was a very good gig. Shivers was ace. not too bothered about the really old stuff but still nice to hear it. Take Me! was class as was Ringway and Octopussy
