    Gigs for 2008.

    Was just wondering if there is many big acts coming to Eire this year. Velvet revolver are in the ambassador the 12th and 13th of march but other than that is there any others confirmed?
    I know theres the rumour that Zepplin could be playing Phoenix or Slane but other than that................................

    Bon Jovi in Punchestown in June.
    Tickets already purchased.
    I don't class myself as a music fan of any kind by the way, the girlfriend is a massive fan and the last gig at Croke Park was a good show.

    Never mention those 2 words in Finn Park if you value your life. Living on a prayer is an out-lawed song in these parts. Oh no I've said to much................... (long story)

    Metalitia in Dolans Warehouse on January 19th!!!

    Apparently the non-tribute are on the way too later in the year if they ever finish the album ...but frankly - I can't get smashed off my tits at an actual Metallica gig and stagger home in a mood for some heavy metal lovin'

    Yup, the one and only Kim Deal. She wrote the Pixies song 'Gigantic' and performs it at the Breeders shows.

    Only gigs I have planned are Korn next Sunday & Monday in the Ambassador.

    Then I'll do a festival in the summer, thinking of trying out Rock Am Ring in Germany or maybe Download again...possibly Rock Werchter in Belgium

    Co-wrote I'll have you know! At least I read that she co-wrote it with Black Francis, while even her ex, John Murphy, had a couple of inputs too.

    Black Francis will be at Vicar Street as well, I'm going to that.

    Supposed to be going to that. Was at the Guns'N'Roses tribute on Stephen's night in there too. Quality, even if the crowd was a little disappointing.

    Seen him there before with the Catholics in 2003 I think it was, amazing show. I've a ticket to see the Smashing Pumpkins the same night though so I won't make it this time.
    In the sleeve notes for Surfer Rosa it says it is co-written alright but by in large the song was 90% Kim Deal, as Frank Black admitted when quizzed about it in an interview I read a few years back.

    Disappointing? how so? as in small? that'd be very surprising for a Stephens night. Usually jammers whoever's on.
