loads of different comments to make
had f**king excellent seats on the balcony
sorry about the flash i always get carried away
he looked great, sang great, had a sh*t load of pedals, man that was crazy!

anyone know what wine he was drinking?
some german wine-teehee!
i bet the girl who sais "Where's Lisa?" felt like a right tool [img]smileys/smiley36.gif[/img]
the two people beside me were a little annoying
passed us out twice during the gig (it was tight squeez ya know), i dint mind that but the reason she went out was to buy drink!!!! the arsehole!!!
also both of them were on the phone a few times during the gig!
the venue is really fantastic, a hundred times better than the Point or the Olympia

probably the best or joint best gig of my laugh [img]smileys/smiley1.gif[/img]
yay yay yay!!!! [img]smileys/smiley4.gif[/img]

I wonder whats up when so many people can walk out of a gig saying how amazing it was, and a handfull say it was crap?



(Not being part of that handfull myself)

Usually depends on what experience you've had withthe artist in question before. And where you sat. And where the arseholes sat in relation to where you sat...


*rembers the Ryan Adams thing in November* And what kind of show you were expecting as well.

the amount of energy andpassion that comes from damien when hes performing is asounding, its still buzzing inside my chest. i could only ever dream about touching others in the same way as his music touches me. this gig was amazing, not even annoying people with phonescouldbug me in my awstruck haze! i can't even pick a favourite, im still seeing stars lol

If you expect too much you will always be disappointed... I always try to go into a gig or film or whatever with low expectations... that way I'm always happy [img]smileys/smiley4.gif[/img]

[img]smileys/smiley36.gif[/img]"lowered expectations"..... sorry, it was a Saturday Night Live skit, but also know otherpeople who live their lives by this philosophy. I can't get behind it though-- lets out the whole "hope" factor for me. [img]smileys/smiley5.gif[/img]

i thought it was a good gig, had ok seats up on the balconey, i prefered itto his gigs in february, he played a lot more songs this time i thought, it was my third time seeing him, the best probably bein the time he played in the olympia on his ownat christmas two years. but the other nite would be up there as well had it not bein for some girl spilling a beer down the front on my jeans, i wasn't a happy bunny after that

that reminds me of his 1st concert i went to.
it was a nice little cafe/pub. really set the feel to cheers darlin for me ever since.
after the concert damien hung around in the bar for a good 2 or 3 hours, it was such an awesome night,
i really felt i had begun to step into my own skin,
knowing perfectly well i was the youngest person in that bar by 3 years, (i was underage...but somebody pulled some strings for me...not quite sure who...perhaps damien himself?)

i miss those days.
i doubt ill ever see a damo gig so intimate again,

I was at the gig...well not the gig, i saw the entire soundcheck. We
helped the opening band mates bring in some equipment and right
when i walked in the door there he was...Damo playing on stage....It
had been my dream to see him play for the 6 months prior to that (6
months prior i was in Dublin again and bought his CD and now its
the love of my life!!!!) Im really wondering if anyone has nay pictures
they might be able to share, I would owe you more than you could
ever imagine....I just reall need this, Thanks for any help i can get.
