Electric Picnic
Wow wow wow Damien was amazing as usual......cant remember the whole gig as i was a tad drunk but i got to meet him & get a photo with him......he was wandering around the Big Tree area during Paul Noonans set.....Brilliant weekend!!
|
Setlist(s) and did anybody tape?
|
He played officially 3 times over the weekend. He also popped up a few times with other artists..
here are somewhat rough setlists Friday - big tree - Blower's Daughter Pt 2 - Volcano - Nine Crimes - Be My Husband Friday night - Electric Arena (in no order whatsoever as i wasnt in the remembering frame of mind!) Professor & La Fille Danse Rootless Tree 9 Crimes Eskimo Volcano Blowers Daughter Pt 2 Woman Like A Man Blowers Daughter Cannonball Cheers' Darlin Coconut Skins Electric Arena was packed to capacity for his gig. And i was dissapointed they played the quieter songs as it was a festival and theres no chance of getting any quiet from a crowd... I was stood quite near the back but still enjoyed it.. Saturday - Special Guest at Big Tree luckily i noticed there was to be "special guests" so i banked on it being damien and got right up the front:) - Me, My Yoke & I - Cold Water - 9 Crimes - Then Go & Big Jam, a few other performers from the big tree stage came on too - Be My Husband - Lisa & Vyvienne (not sure on the song) - a final jam which went on for about 30 minutes. Was the most intense jam ive seen damien and band do. I noticed for the final gig most of the band seemed pretty out of it. Especially Lisa!! They were all in great form and seemed to really enjoy it, which made up for their grumpy selves at vicar street So glad i caught the final gig as it was class!! |
took some great photos on the saturday night as i was right up the front
ill try upload when i get a chance to... |
Basement Jaxx Was The Highlight Of My Weekend
|
far too many highlights but the yeah yeah yeahs totally blew me away
i expected a nice little gig but it ended up being absolutely mindblowing other non musical highlights :the body & soul area. So damn cool with a kind of amphitheatre with everyone sitting around smoking :Tír na gCaisce - Little place in the woods, mostly had raves going on. Went there sunday night and didnt get kicked out till 9am. :The girls who robbed the golf cart. Absolutely hillarious and i really shouldnt of helped when they got it stuck in the mud.. All in all it was amazing. I got quite a reality kick when i had to leave why does reality bite so much? :icon_scra |
i'm holding a funeral tommorrow for the picnic, its up the mountains...bring wine
|
Lisa played her own stuff at four o clock on sunday.
|
a little piece of me died when u told me that yesterday...
|
Yeah, they had it written up on the board, she was on after Duke Special and before Neosupervital. She played six songs... Tomo did some beatboxing, Damo played the djembe, it was all good. Very weird to hear so much completely new stuff in one go.
|
again...i little piece of me died just there
|
Oh yes, so many completely new songs in one go, songs that you're not likely to hear for a good while... not to worry though...
I was there. Muh ha ha ha ha ha ha. |
im never going to dance at your disco again
|
You have to, I'm a disco inferno. Never forget...
|
here..thats a completely different kettle of ball games....
i used that line at basement jaxx when i was dancing with my mustache friends...then almost widdeled their pants when i said it.....it made my ovaries flutter. how was your tea? and floury spuds un ur million year old jesus house? |

glad you had such an amazing time, but sorry reality had to come crashing down (damn reality, i hate it) maybe if there's a heaven it looks a lot like electric picnic.. sounds like heaven to me anyway :) |

a-flutter. If you plan on using my running jokes then don't bastardize them, lest I become perturbed... The disco inferno that I am. For I believe it was Jesus Christ who said; "you haven't lived until you've ... ... (help me out here) |
snorted coke out of a virgins pussy."
Jesus has never been so right. i can bastardize all i like |
eh found a small clip of damien with the dublin gospel choir i think at electric picnic
its quite small mind you - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J-6FUN_LAlU |
thank you! (i was quite distracted after pinky's last post there...)
it's small but lovely i robbed a pic off another board :D http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v1...ight/EP131.jpg damo wearing shades! that's a new one.. |
thanks for the clip! I loved the clip of Flame they had too :)
and I must say, damien looks divine in those glasses - what board did you get it off of? |
when was this??? i was at the choir and there was no damien....
|
It was the later show for the Dublin Gospel Choir, at the end of the set they brought on Lisa to sing 'Grandma's Hand/No Diggity' with them, then they brought on Paul to sing 'Flame' with them, then they brought on Damien to play 'Still Haven't Found What I'm Looking For' with them. I'd never heard him playing the full version of it (when it's not part of a jam) before... Good stuff. You wouldn't have heard it because you're not indie and underrated enough.
|
we'll see about that
|
What, now you're going to tell me you're from Montréal? That would be quite Avant-Garde and Post-Modern of you...
|
Here you go m'dear.
|
iv already seen that one you pleb
|
yeah you pleb (what is a pleb anyway?)
i didn't notice it was brendan from irish music central that uploaded it at first tho.. i'm going to subscribe to him (i see angela already has) Quote:
