Yeah, I was sitting up on the balcony I totally wanted to throw something at him too. I guess it wouldn't have been in the anti-war spirit of things tho (hmm, protests next wkend mightn't be either). What did he expect to have a debate about it or something... i'm all for debates, but there's a time and a place. To make things worse, his mobile phone rang during the next song.

Speaking of which, that song was great. It was a Billie Holiday song called Strange Fruit. Can't remember who sang it last night, but it was really beautiful.

yeah it was probably the highlight of the night... her last name was corcorain i remember but cant remember the rest...

also the guy who read the poetry... his poems are really nice but i couldnt stop laughing cos of his thick accent and the way he said it[img]smileys/smiley4.gif[/img]

it was great the way they brought the lights up as soon as the idiot started talking. i felt she should of answered him tho. she just kinda blew it off

Mojo_Pin1980 · 06-21-2004, 08:46 AM

What's the name of the American band?[img]smileys/smiley36.gif[/img]

Gatsby · 06-21-2004, 08:49 AM

its on the tip of my tongue...

you usually dont remember the names of bands you dont like but this band you had to remember the name to know never to go to one of their gigs...

hopefully banjaxed knows

Banjaxed · 06-21-2004, 08:52 AM

Halliburton Corporation (i think).

They were on Marianne Finucanne (sp?) the other morning with Christy Moore. Christy was talking about the WBCTS gig, and then he heard their song being played on the show and asked them if they'd like to play at the gig.

Mojo_Pin1980 · 06-21-2004, 08:56 AM

Never heard of 'em. Guess I'll keep it that way[img]smileys/smiley2.gif[/img]

The violinist (Zoe Conway) who played solo during Damo's set was deadly too.

an old traditional song.....made famous by the wonderful Christy Moore...he played a blinder at the fleadh in london yesterday that i was priviledged to get a chance to see

Diarmo · 06-21-2004, 03:36 PM

Damo did quite a few Christy Moore Songs. Black Is The Colour and Lonely Soldier (although Damo did help him!)

Michelle Joey · 06-21-2004, 03:38 PM

Haha,my turn to make fun of you now [img]smileys/smiley36.gif[/img]

Lonely Soldier's Damien's song [img]smileys/smiley36.gif[/img]

Closing Doors · 06-21-2004, 07:40 PM

who were the band that came on after Damien on the first night and were so bad that the place emptied ? Just curious....

Féileacán · 06-21-2004, 08:58 PM

I was at the gig in Vicar St. last night too and have to say I really
enjoyed it. Gavin Moore was really good, unexpectidly I must admit but
I thought he was great. I thought The Chapters were really good
too-will be listening out for them in future.

But the definate highlight was Damien, after all it was the reason I
went! Was a bit disappointed that he didn't play for longer but The
Blower's Daughter made up for it all-all I can say is WOW! I have to
agree with previous comments on Lisa-I really didn't think her voice
sounded it's best singing in such a low range!

Can't wait for my next Damo live experience!
