Doctor FinnBarr Posted August 10, 2023 Share Posted August 10, 2023 Now, I normally avoid Oirish pubs like the plague (unless they're in Ireland) but I might make an exception tomorrow night. Daughter has been given a late afternoon gig in Finnegans Wake albeit due to someone else letting them down. Her first time playing outside West Lothian so its a biggy for her. 🥰 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was a bit critical of them live but I gave them another chance by listening to their album and I have to admit I absolutely love them now.

They're fully booked musician wise til the end of September but have asked her if she's available short notice to fill in if someone pulls out. She seem's happy with that.

Did you enjoy Deafheaven? I'm less enamoured with the black metal screaming but do love the shoegazey element they bring to their sound.

Ulysses Posted September 7, 2023 Share Posted September 7, 2023 2 hours ago, The new West End said: How was he? Really good. It was just him and Steve Nieve. Costello sang and played about six different guitars, while Steve played piano and keyboards - brilliantly, what a musician. Costello's singing was rough for the first couple of songs until he settled into it, but after that it was great. Highlights? Veronica, She, Shipbuilding, (What's So Funny 'Bout) Peace, Love and Understanding. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
