    First Gig - Chris de Burg in RDS in 89 (he had some good stuff back then and I was only 16 so my mum dad and brother went too!)

    Best Gig- Roland Gift in the Hot Press Hall of Fame (now Spirit) in 99 (i think). there were only about 12 people there and I sat in front dictating what songs he should play next. He played most of his FYC stuff. After got chatting to him and he invited me back for the next nights gig too where got photos taken with him and FYC stuff signed. He is the sexiest man alive!

    Also other favs were Sultans of Ping FC in Rock Garden around 91 I think and lying on our backs air cycling to Turnip Fish, Something Happens in the Fiddlers in Carrick 99ish where tried to get Tom Dunne to drop his trousers for me so could see his sexy legs.....aw the memories.

    Worst gig - 02 in the Park a few years ago (had to bring the chislers)

    Wettest gig ever - Feile 91 got so soaked!

    This thread is like an old girlfriend I keep bumping into. I know it is spookey to keep going into the past, but it is pure self-indulgence.
    There used to be gigs in Macroom Castle around 1978 and 1979. Can't remember what they were called. They got huge crowds to see Paul Brady the Dubliners, and I think Rory Gallagher played there too.
    Saw Loudon Wainright III at de Lacy House which is now called the Qube. Happy happy days in 1981.

    You probably remember the Anti-nuke gigs at Carnsore Point then... you're old enough anyway
