I used to live a few doors down from him in kildare. His older sister used to babysit me. Yay. my claim to fame. His dad was very good at guitar aswell. He used to play at the estate barbeques some of the years so my mam said.

*waves*


I heard "Amie" on a satellite radio station &amp; was instantly hooked! O is just the most amazing album I've heard in a looong while. The lush orchestrations will do it for me every time ;-D


I really know nothing about this guy *ducks*, but I'm off to find out... <img border="0" src= "smileys/smiley1.gif">

Yeah i know the guy who plays electric guitar on The Blowers Daughter and Damo once stayed in my house with Tomo aftera gig in the Lobby 2 years ago.


But hes just a normal guy with an extra ordinary job, and of cousre a great way with words!!


I couldnt say ive a fav damo song but if anybodys seen him play cheers darlin live its brill and the album version does not do it justice!!!! he downed a pint of Guinness during it once at a gig in Galway, way cool. It was many of our first time seeing or hearing about him and some of us girlies were teary eyed after I remember..... that was nearly 3years ago now.<img border="0" src= "smileys/smiley10.gif">


Well of to do some work.....................

Yeah it s good to watch people grow and get a break, havnt heard that damo song yet, havnt heard many new one and i only saw him play like a month ago, still lod school stuff.


That gig in Roisins was amazing, really at the beginning of his solo touring. Also saw him in An Taibhearc laterthat year was amazing they have such a great venue for good musicians like damo!! really close to the stage, really comfy etc...Saw him in the lobby in cork itwas good cause he and tomo had a greatimprovon Ukeleas (spelt wrong) but man that place is small and cramped!!!
