Let's see if i remember the setlist.
I think this is it

The professor
Elephant
I don't want to change you
9 crimes
Trusty and true
Delicate
I remember
Woman like a man
Older chests
Volcano
It takes a lot ...

-- (encore: standing on a chair)
Cannonball
The greatest bastard
The blower's daughter (unamplified)

Genuinely beautiful show, but to me not as magical as the Iveagh Gardens.

La Fille Danse at the start too.

I loved the show. He was in great form. My highlight was the end to the main show with all the layering, building up to such an intense loud ending. Fantastic.

It was great to meet a few more Eskimos too. It seems there were more there than I got to meet too... sorry to have missed you guys.

It was honestly the most incredible experience of my life. I'd waited 8 years to see him and he was everything that I could have hoped for and more! I'm sure everyone could have listened to him for hours and days. Wasn't a massive fan of Trusty and True though, thought he could have cut it shorter and just given a snippet of it!

I do prefer the album version ( Correction! I was thinking of the one with the harmonium... which was that again?)

Some pics...although I was adamant not to stand in a place where his face would be covered by the 2 mics again as in Dublin, AND I was the second person to arrive at the venue, I ended up in the same position as in Dublin!! Dumb!! Oh well.

I liked the show, but not as much as the other ones I went to...

I was really emotional during Elephant for some reason, but Trusty and True didn't do it for me and afterwards I was not as into it as in the beginning... :/

But it was wonderful to see him live in Ireland with everybody singing along to the old songs... not something that happens much in France

I don't know... But I know I am way too shy for my own good. :/
Were you the people first in line? I arrived much later. But Claude if you had the same shirt as in your picture, I definetely saw you! Next time I'll come and say hi, promise.

Sadly it won't be in Paris on monday cause I didn't get tickets... :/

C'est bien toi que j'ai vu alors, j'étais à l'opposé de la file mais juste à côté de vous en fait (quand la file a fait un S)

C'est dommage indeed BUT I managed to get a ticket for Monday! YAY!!!
I don't understand what happened, I looked regularly on the Grand Rex site and today places were available again... But I got only one, I feel like it was the very last! I have a balcony place, though...

Can't wait !!! And maybe I'll finally be able to meet some eskimos

Hello everyone,

These are some pictures I took in Cork on Monday.
It was really awesome!
In my list only second to a Leonard Cohen concert a few years ago.

i was lucky enough to go to the gigs in dublin, cork and galway and i have to say that the concert in cork is on top! i agree with the fact that he played a better set list in dublin but i felt the songs he played in both places (like i remember, woman like a man, 9 crimes, italtkam, for example) were much more intense and full of energy in cork than in dublin... maybe it was only me

i loved trusty and true and it really hit me... i started crying like a baby, lol (the song has been particularly significant for me lately) and i found it extremely powerful... as it was italtkam... that was mind explotion. how deep he was into it... his body language, so so intense. it really transported me. it was a perfect ending before a perfect encore... standing on a chair, with the cuttest excuse "i´m not extraordinay tall", lol

it seemed that he never wanted to leave. he looked so happily overwhelmed (like the photo from carole proofs it -thanks claude for posting ) that he even threw a kiss to the audience. i don´t think he´d even done that before, although i could be wrong.

a few minutes before the concert started, i was thinking to myself a bit concern: what if get use to his gigs or to his performances?". i´ve only seen him live a couple of times before but with the space of years, so i got worried... but from the moment he started playing i knew it would be impossible to get use to (fortunately!)... the energy, the intensity and the magic is all new in every gig (and i´m saying that after being at the concert in galway)... and i was mesmerized all over again

having seen emmett and wheels at the end was a real treat too! also, having sharing the experience with such lovely eskimo friends! thank you for staying with me while i had to kill some time despite you all were worn out

thanks for all the vids, marti. i will re-live the moment endlessly now
