She is![img]smileys/smiley4.gif[/img]And you forgot sweet, funny, smart, gorgeous....[img]smileys/smiley2.gif[/img]

Those too. [img]smileys/smiley1.gif[/img]


So how's the guitar playing coming along?

Well, it's kinda tough without a guitar![img]smileys/smiley2.gif[/img]Her guitar's still in Madrid..

Hmmm... yeah, I could see how that might cause a problem. [img]smileys/smiley36.gif[/img]Oh well, I'm sure you two of got plenty of other things to do. [img]smileys/smiley2.gif[/img]

Hehe, sure we do![img]smileys/smiley17.gif[/img]And she'll get her guitar in July, when some of her friends are coming over.


So... are you coming tonight or what?[img]smileys/smiley2.gif[/img]

I don't know. I have to see how I get on with my work as I'm a bit behind. [img]smileys/smiley6.gif[/img]Tony's in town already - got home early from work so he's gone to play snooker. Tell ya what, I'll send ya my mobile number and you can text me and let me know where you are. How does that sound?

Sounds good! Where does Tony play snooker? Mariaplaats?

Yep, you got it in one! [img]smileys/smiley32.gif[/img]

i found nothing about him..where can i listen to something?

Concetta, you can listen to his stuff here: http://www.irishmusiccentral.com/the...at/sounds.html


(The Prayer Boat is his band. The "Other Voices" stuff and the Today FM Sessionis him solo - but some of those songs come from the Prayer Boat's album Polichinelle)

thanks a lot sezmo!!! [img]smileys/smiley9.gif[/img]

The Prayer Boat is no more???


I love that place at Mariaplaats... I go there to shoot some pool sometimes..[img]smileys/smiley1.gif[/img]

You're welcome. Hope you like it! Let me know what you think. [img]smileys/smiley1.gif[/img]

sure!!! i'm looking yet! [img]smileys/smiley2.gif[/img]

I don't know actually... first it was with his brother and some Irish guys yeah? And then with some Danish guys? And now him solo. But he said he was going to stay with his brother for a while in upon his return to Ireland I think, and part of the reason he was leaving Amsterdam was to find musicians. So... maybe they're starting it up again.


Probably best to ask Marloes about this one - she's far more knowledgeable about this stuff. Marloes honey? Got any info?



Tony used to go there a couple of times a week. Hasn't been in ages though since they got moved to a crappy table at the back or something. But they were home so early today they decided to go for a few frames.

i see you're doing your (new) job spreading the emmett word around the world!![img]smileys/smiley2.gif[/img]

Take your time. [img]smileys/smiley4.gif[/img]

Or ask Angela.. she knows everything!!!


Angela???[img]smileys/smiley2.gif[/img]


There's still plenty of snooker tables if I'm not mistaken. Oh well, I'm crap at snooker anyway. I think the biggest break I ever made was 9![img]smileys/smiley9.gif[/img][img]smileys/smiley36.gif[/img]

[img]smileys/smiley36.gif[/img]Yeah but I need Marloes' and Angela's expertise to clear something up: I don't even know if The Prayer Boat will continue of if he's carrying on solo only or what. [img]smileys/smiley9.gif[/img]
Edited by: sezmo

Oops, yeah of course. Angela's another good person to ask! (sorry Angela [img]smileys/smiley9.gif[/img])





Yeah there are plenty of tables. I think it just got really busy in there for a while, and one of the tables is not as good as the others and they were always getting stuck on that one. Something like that anyway.

ahem, you seem to now as much as I do [img]smileys/smiley4.gif[/img] But I think it is safe to assume that Prayer Boat as it was is no more. If you listen to Oceanic Feeling and Polichinelle there is already a world of difference between the sound, and I think that was mostly Emmett's decision to change the course. And the gigs he has played in the past 4 years (at least in Holland) have either been solo or with different musicians than the ones on the record (such as the danish jazz musicians you can see on the fabchannel recording) And besides, the new forthcoming cd is going to be a solo record, but I don't think this means it's going to sound drastically different from Polichinelle. End of rant [img]smileys/smiley17.gif[/img]

Thanks, that's what I thought too. But then I didn't wanna go spreading something that was totally untrue. Phew! [img]smileys/smiley1.gif[/img]

YEAAAHHH! but first a business meeting...erhm... amsterdam? sure, why not... but soon we'll have to travel together in ireland, y'know, make sure our wee artists are behaving themselves...

Okay, well I'm already going there at the end of September. And possibly at the end of July as well. Wanna come with?

Well if we are going to be in business together we have to get our facts straight [img]smileys/smiley36.gif[/img] Maybe we can ask Angela to be the 4th partner, she can handle business on that side of the ocean [img]smileys/smiley4.gif[/img]

huh? Already sent it. But nothing in my outbox. What is going on with this site today??? [img]smileys/smiley7.gif[/img]


Another PM on its way to ya momentarily

Again nothing in the outbox. Bet you didn't receive that message either then eh? [img]smileys/smiley5.gif[/img]


Okay, I've just e-mailed it to ya instead - to the hotmail address in your profile. Hope that works! [img]smileys/smiley36.gif[/img]
Edited by: sezmo

Got it!![img]smileys/smiley1.gif[/img]So.. do you prefer txt msgs in English or Dutch?[img]smileys/smiley2.gif[/img]

Maakt niet uit. [img]smileys/smiley17.gif[/img]Is your PM inbox full or something? I can PM other people but not you. [img]smileys/smiley5.gif[/img]


[edit: can't spell]
Edited by: sezmo

Yeah, it was full. I didn't even know that...[img]smileys/smiley9.gif[/img]

[img]smileys/smiley36.gif[/img]I thought I would get something saying it was full. Guess not.

Yeah, good idea! Then we can be translatlantic right from the get-go. [img]smileys/smiley32.gif[/img]

They never broke up officially, but for all practical purposes they broke upyears ago. They didn't find commercial sucess and some started families and with that were no longer available for touring outside of Ireland, though Emmett's brother originally said he'd still be willing to play within Ireland. But he fell by the wayside, too.


That's why Emmett used the Danish and Swedish musicians for a while. They are not "The Prayer Boat" and they no longer play together, now that Emmett is back in Dublin. He used them for his new album, but that album is an Emmett Tinley solo debut.Edited by: Angela

No, it's pretty much in the same vein. And it's very beautiful from what I heard.

What business am I in without knowing? [img]smileys/smiley36.gif[/img]

yeAH, I WAS THINKING OF TEH SAME THING!


HEY ANGE, HOW'D YOU LIKE TO TAKE PART INOBTAINING WORLD DOMINATION? SOUNDS GOOD , DONT IT?[img]smileys/smiley2.gif[/img]Edited by: cillecille
