Works fine for me I just clicked on the adsl link. So far the setlist have been:


The professor
Volcano
Delicate
Woman like a man
Cannonball
*some story about a wee Irish boy
Amie
Blower's Daughter pt. 2 (new song)
Blower's Daughter
Me, My Yoke and I
I remember
----------------
Eskimo


A very good show so far! Don't worry if you cannot see it, because it will be in the archive on the site in some days. Damien has got himself a mohawk... The supporting act was the Citadels.


By the way, I'm new here so hello to everyone.


EDIT: The setlist

[Wheels]

Hey Betina. I'm not sure the mohawk works, what do you think?

[betina]

I liked his curls (sorry large photo), but the mohawk is okay... It's better than the totally shaved head.

Woman like a man

He said that there would be an European tour in October or November. I hope they will visit Denmark...

[Angela]

Good for me he started late <img border="0" src= "smileys/smiley1.gif">Came back from the dentist and saw almost the whole show - yeah!!! Damien is always good for a surprise, eh. A mohawk - who would have thought so!


Does BD Pt. 2 sound like Creep or something? Was the first timeI heard it.

[Sionna]

Damn it I missed it!Someone better have recorded it,I'm dying to hear the blowers daughters part 2!Whats this about a mohawk?!?I liked his hair the way it was!

[Loveless]

yeah I thought the same, it sounded a small bit like the acoustic version of Creep he used to play before. I only got to record the first eight songs from the set, it cut out for me after that. Is that 'scotish song' a cover from another band 'cause I'm nearly certain I've heard that song somewhere before.. sounds like something Looper would do.

[Angela]

The Scotish song wasn't a song. Damien told a story of a Scottish boy in a fairy-tale'ish fashion before launching into "Amie". Is that the song you mean, "Amie"?


Exactly! Like the acoustic version of Creep. I think the beginning is even identical

[daol20]

AHH!! I couldnt get it to work for me!!! I was on at the right time and everything!! Thats phucked up!! Im pissed off i missed it! especially his new stuff!

[julia]

Hey I was wondering if someone could post the live concert on the website please!!!!! I could not get it to work the other night.. I am sure many of us would greatly appriciate it... Thanks

[hannadanna]

it's being archived on www.fabchannel.com ("") so keep an eye on that for the gig.

[Sionna]

Cheers hannadanna!R u the guy from Ennis who I was chattin to a while ago?

[daol20]

I checked that site. Theres no sign of the gig in the archives yet! I'll let you all know when it does!

[Angela]

I think what happened was that the link in the first message here was a direct link to Damien's page, but there was only the audio. I went to fabchannel's home page and that automatically popped up a separate window with the video.


There's a great (25 minutes) Frames gig in the archive, btw, and an even better one (70+ minutes, depending on connection speed) by the Prayer Boat. <img border="0" src= "smileys/smiley4.gif">

[daol20]

Half of those links on that site wont work for me. i listened to a few. Some of them play with media player and others with real player. When i click the meadia player ones the player loads but nothing happens when i hit play. Anyone know what the craic is???

[hannadanna]

Cheers hannadanna!R u the guy from Ennis who I was chattin to a while ago?

yep that would be me, ps. check out the clare champion this week (pg 18. of the sports section)

[katinka]

i was there ofcourse...smileys/smiley4.gifno need for fabchannels

[gally45]

I didnt have any problems but i was listening on a broadband connection that might have something to do with it. It was intersting to hear him say that he wasnt going to put cannonball on O but lisa convinced him to cause it was her favourite song,way to go lisa!

[kavu478]

man, what a great show!

[kavu478]

Oh... Angela, I'm with you on BD2...the begining does sound a lot like "Creep." I guess I didn't realize how funny Damien was! The lil scottish boy was awesome!

[dara]

my only prob is bd2 is a complete rip off of creep and thats a bag o sh*te. we all know damien is more capable than to rest on his radiohead jb crutch. and also the wee boy i mean cmon hes been sayin that for almosta year now at every gig. was cool the first time , now its just like whatever.just my opinion .

[Wheels]

To be fair Dara, it was probably the first time anyone there heard it... he probably doesn't expect people to hear every gig he plays smileys/smiley1.gif

[therescueblues]

i honestly dont think the blowers daughter 2 sounds like creep relly,meybe a tiny bit,its sounds a bit like the blowers daughter(the start anyway)but thats just to be expected!

[kavu478]

angela-

Thanks for the tip on the Prayer Boat... not bad... killing the one I love had a good sound. thanks for the tip.

[Angela]

kavu478,

Glad you liked him. Emmett's music grows unto you!

There are some more sounds here:
The Prayer Boat (sounds) (http://www.irishmusiccentral.com/theprayerboat/sounds.html)

Some recent solo work at the top. smileys/smiley10.gif

[daol20]

I cant get that link to the Amsterdam gig to work!!smileys/smiley7.gif

[Angela]

Damien's? It starts out in the dark, so you have to wait a minute or so. Did you, Daragh?

[daol20]

Yeah, left it for ages and still nothing...........

[Angela]

Wish I could help you. Did you try any of the other videos? (There's a Frames one, btw.) If those don't work either, it's either your media player, I think, or your computer may not have enough memory. smileys/smiley5.gif

[katinka]

Great to hear and see the show again. Did you notice Damien stops playing at a certain moment and goes to someone in the audience in front of the stage? There was somebody (I think a girl) who suddenly did not feel good. You saw the shock on his face, he stopped playing, checked her and then got his own glas of water and brought it to her. He's sooooooooo nice.

[Vienna]

i tried watching it last night, but my computer is soooooooooooo old and the picture was terrible but the sound was ok so i was happy!!


can't wait til i get my new computer to actually watch it properly!!!!

[katinka]

a lot is black though, because they asked to put the light down cause they don't like being in the spotlights smileys/smiley1.gifsmileys/smiley1.gifsmileys/smiley1.gif

[LisaOBrien]

watched it last night...it was great. BD2 pretty damn cool!

[FredDaNinjaPunk]

It won't load for me either Daragh....its strange...cos I never have a problem with the media player here, and it can't be memory...Oh well, I can probably see it when I get home.

[Gatsby]

i can hear it but i cant see it... it just has "windows media" on it which is really annoying as the professor sounds amazing good

[daol20]

I cant even get that far! It says Win Media Player and i click play and nothing!!!!

[FredDaNinjaPunk]

Exact same thing happenin wiv me, Dar

[Gatsby]

have you tried "real one player" ?


it sounds like a great show... just a shame we cant see it at the mosmileys/smiley6.gif

[Cormac]
