Anyone at the headliners gig?

Boy Named Sue · 07-25-2004, 10:49 AM

Was the headliners gig any good(stupid question really)? What did he play and when are we gonna see it on the telly?

Anybody out there know if Damien's comin to Cork anytime soon? We havn't seen him in the peoples republic for a while.

celia · 07-25-2004, 01:51 PM

yeah Im really suprised no one has posted about it!!!

You wouldn't believe how gutted I was, I havent had the internet this week and didnt know Damien was going to be there But I was at Riverside Studio Sat moring seeing Keane at CD:UK and I saw them put the Damien Rice poster on the window when I was outside chatting to Keane!!! I was so gutted I could have gone to see him if I'd have known grrrrrrrr.

I want to know how it was...anyone??

cille · 07-25-2004, 02:00 PM

haha yeah - well what I've learned is that I shouldnt have moved house to a new job where I dont have internet access for a year. d'oh! [img]smileys/smiley9.gif[/img]

#Ian# · 07-25-2004, 04:36 PM

I just checked the official forum to see if anyone posted about it. Not a word.

Did this gig actually happen or what?

Damo has decided to stay in Burma and work with the aid workers there because he was so affected by what he saw.The pressure for a new album was too much again(thats why b-sides was realisedin Ireland).A look-a-likeis gonna replace him and start cashing in for the record company in a few months(just like Paul McCartney). He'll reform Juniper in three years and go on a ten year world tour.[img]smileys/smiley2.gif[/img][img]smileys/smiley17.gif[/img][img]smileys/smiley36.gif[/img]

Thanks to a lovely person offering tickets I was there.

Amazing, wonderful but very very hot! Must of been my dream like state but didn't catch when it was being aired - anyone else know?

I won';t be watching it though - put me in the front row and I'm sure I was clapping like a seal!

[img]smileys/smiley5.gif[/img]

#Ian# · 07-26-2004, 08:53 AM

Set-list please folks.

I assume that it was full band?

tannerd · 07-26-2004, 10:44 AM

Well, off the top of my head the set was:

Cannonball

Woman Like a Man

Volcano

Cold Water

I Remember

Eskimo

Delicate

 Blower's Daughter

Not in that order though.

They also had to re-do cannonball, and during the 3rd attempt Damo's
guitar/pedal cable died. So whilst they spent 10 minutes trying to fix
it we persuaded Vyvienne to play Seven Nation Army (she had to borrow
Lisa's mike). They did film it, so i tmight make it onto the show.

They also had to re-do blower's daughter.

All in all it was really good! Felt quite intimate, although there was
a feeling that you weren't at a gig, more helping out the recording of
the show.

Michelle Joey · 07-26-2004, 10:47 AM

What happened the "exclusive tracks off the new album"?

#Ian# · 07-26-2004, 11:07 AM

The new album that isn't finalised yet?

Michelle Joey · 07-26-2004, 11:10 AM

Well that's what it said in the advert thingy [img]smileys/smiley5.gif[/img]

OpenedOnce · 07-26-2004, 11:14 AM

That setlist is wrong. They played:

Cannonball
Volcano
Woman LikeA Man
The Blower's Daughter
Cold Water
Delicate
I Remember

Then, whilst there were some technical problems, Vivienne played 'Seven Nation Army', then they did

Cannonball (again)
The Blower's Daughter (again)

On the actual setlist it had written:

"The Blower's Daughter/Creep"
and
"Eskimo"

but neither Eskimo nor Creep were played.

Damien mentioned that his trip to Burma had helped him put a lot of things into perspective. [img]smileys/smiley1.gif[/img]

#Ian# · 07-26-2004, 11:14 AM

Yeah I know, I thought that was a strange thing that they added into the blurb. Its not like advertising people to lie to us, I'm shocked.

Michelle Joey · 07-26-2004, 11:16 AM

Shocked and appalled eh? [img]smileys/smiley36.gif[/img]

olsie · 07-26-2004, 01:08 PM

it was amazing, i was the guy who asked vyvienne to play white stripes or the beatles, was well proud of myself. Thanks to everyone whourged her on.

front row, next to damien, right behind lisa, i also asked her for her setlist which she gave to me, how nice.[img]smileys/smiley4.gif[/img]

pookadana · 07-26-2004, 02:10 PM

Oh Olsie, I remember you,

Iwas the loud dublin girl the other side of the Speaker helping out with the urging (to your left) right behind Lisa, that girl was messing with her drink cup no end!

Bless - lovely women!

But agree with the helping out making a TV program but hey not bad exchange I have to say!

olsie · 07-26-2004, 05:31 PM

[img]smileys/smiley2.gif[/img]cheers.

what a gig though. soooo unplugged. i was thinking right, so stage and we're infront of it. not a circle. sooo cool.

Libby · 07-26-2004, 08:43 PM

I can't believe I missed this- I only noticed that it was happening after all the tickets were gone[img]smileys/smiley19.gif[/img]

(Libby runs off to kick herself)

Anyway, I am glad you all enjoyed it [img]smileys/smiley4.gif[/img]
