Default Electric Picnic: Place your bets

What are the odds he shows up and plays with Glen or The Bellies or Ed Sheeran or Christy Moore or Ben Howard?

Glen Hansard: even money
Bell X1 2:1
Ed Sheeran 2:1
Ben Howard 5:1
Rest of the field 20:1

i have even my eyes crossed () for him to show up at glen´s gig, since i´m going to the electric picnic (after 6 years of dreaming of being there!) on sunday (my birthday actually), mainly because of glen!

no idea about the odds... only my fantasy and my hopes

Hey he got his start by listening to Damien and does some of the same covers. 2:1 is probably a bit unrealistic. How Bout 5:2

As long as we're talking odds. What do you think the odds are o him ever singing another song with Lisa? 100:1?

Better question is what are odd of Lisa singing a song with him? I would say 1000:1, or perhaps a bit less.

That would be the ultimate validation of their reconciliation, wouldn't it?

How do we know that there was any sort of reconciliation?

Can't find it now, but I did read the interview where Lisa talks how Little Bird is about Damien and how they did talk after she read the interview, but that she doesn't want to say the details.
If I find interview, I'll post it here.

EDIT: Found it!

Or, simple part 'bout it
"Did you read that interview?

She blushes slightly.

“I did, yes. It was very nice. He said some lovely things so that was nice to read, but weird to read in a magazine. Very odd. So much time has passed, things obviously change over time. But yeah, I did read it. I had to with the amount of people saying, ‘Have you seen this?’”

Did you speak to him afterwards?

“We have been in touch, yeah. But I don’t really want to say any more than that.”

The impression is that they’re reconciled in the complicated sense. Still, she’s wearing a Claddagh ring with the heart pointed inwards, a reference to her relationship with comedian David O’Doherty."

I've never said that they reconciled. And I don't think Damien wants to get back with her just so they can be "together" again. Like her, seems like he's pretty ready to move on as well.
