I noticed the little igloo icon disappeared from Damien's website...
He gave up on us ![]() So let's bring the forum back to live. Facebook is great, but the igloo is less flighty and a great source of information for unreleased stuff. Last edited by carrroline; 08-28-2018 at 03:08 PM. |

Your threads are great.
I'm still sorting out something to put on here for the Palma show last month. Show was great for me, but he seemed "a bit precious" that night. Much prefer Eskimo to Farcebook stuff anyway! |

I think a lot of those views are just people directed here by google when they search for damien related stuff + it is really hard to get your account verified (I had to wait a couple of weeks or months even back in the day), by the time newbies are able to post, they lost their motivation :-/

and they can't tell us if it doesn't work...
I don't know if it's any indication but the name of the "newest member" at the bottom of the page has changed since yesterday. So people are definitely trying to sign up. |

also some people told me they're signed up but cannot start a thread
but I think thats normal in all forums I think you got to have like 10 normal posts first or something like posts replying to people in posts that you didn't start and then start a new thread I think it's normal that your first post cannot be a new thread but not 100% sure

I haven’t been here in a while, either. I’m trying to keep up with it all, but I miss the good old days when we only had to check here for everything.

Any news/thoughts on as and when anything new is hopefully arriving from Damien? It's over 17 years since I first saw him play live at the Wedgewood Rooms in Portsmouth, Hants, UK and about 2 and a half years since the last show I saw in Majorca, hopefully when it's safe to tour again we might see him out and about again.

Thanks a lot Teddie2003 for coming back here again !
I hope everyone had a beautiful Christmas time. Sadly nothing new about Damien... Is Majorca so far away, (2 and a half years) i was there too. Can't wait to see him live ! Have a good end of 2020 and hopefully 2021 will be better ! |

Whereabouts were you sat in Majorca? We were in front row of the circle seats 18 & 19, next to us was a blonde lady from the UK who'd been to a few Damien gigs before as well. I thought that gig was pretty good even allowing for him being a bit precious a couple of times when the audience was being a bit noisy. Thought the one at Bristol in 2015 was one of the best shows I've seen him do though especially the last song of the night, It Takes a Lot to Know a Man |

Yes i hope 2021 will be better...
For Palma i was seating raw D, seat 13. The show was good but sometimes the audience was noisy, indeed. Sadly i was not in Bristol. But i went to Dublin and Cork in july 2015. |

So that made more sense, plus it continued the run of always seeing him a different venue each time we've seen him. |

Thanks for the explanations !
It seems Galway was very noisy (audience)... You were lucky with only two hour drive to Bristol. And i learned they changed the name of the Colston Hall, because of "BlackLivesMatter". And it's a good idea to always seeing him in a different venue each time. |
