I hear the support band's bassist is not only a captain of industry, but a king among men.

Yeah but it woulda seemed crass to go "and by the way, I'm playing too". Seriously, The Wrens are amazing, my all time second favourite band. GO GO GO, if Marloes and Samuelle were around they'd back me up on it.

Yeah, Ian may be a miserable bastard but he has great taste in music so you can all trust his judgment

If I wasn't already going to another gig in Amsterdam that night, I would be hopping on a plane to Dublin just to see this gig!

I totally wish I could go! I the Wrens! And I've never seen nanobot, but Ian's one of my favorite people.

I'm stuck in DC apartment hunting in the snow with a cold no less.

no time to be modest dear boy, we want details!
I've been checking all your usual hangouts, but you're keeping awfully quiet
have you died and gone to heaven?

I've been asleep and now I have to go play tourguide to some gentlemen from New Jersey.

It was good.

Which is to say it was ****ing amazing.

Proper recap tomorrow.

Everyone should be able to play support slots with their favourite bands.

I'm so jealous! Sounds like fun. You have to let us know where you took them in Dublin, too

I really don't know what I can say really. The wrens are one of the best bands ever and they played like it.

We did well.

I got to sing with them.

It was good.
