16th September 2008
Ok so… The mini Irish/pre Canada tour has kicked off, with Electric Avenue in Waterford, The Underground in Tipp Town and Dolans Upstairs in Limerick all behind us, and gigs with Fred in Roisin Dubh, Galway this Friday and then a headline show in Cleeres Theatre in Kilkenny on the Sat, we’re slowly getting ourselves in shape for Canada. One of the highlights was getting to air a couple of new songs live for the first time in ages, hopefully something we’ll be able to do more of over the next few weeks.
Some pictures from the Dolan’s gig can be seen here, thanks to Limerick photographer Matt McKnight.
The great support over the last few gigs was from Tipp band Maslow, Limerick singer/songwriter Maca and Waterford’s Shane Barry and the Distractions.
Looks like we’ll be in Toronto from the 7th Oct-13th Oct for Indie Week ‘08, a relatively short stay compared to our last few visits but we’re still playing four shows and doing numerous radio interviews so we’ll be fairly busy.
Once we’re home, work begins in earnest on writing new material, which hopefully will find it’s way onto album number two!
That is all from my infrequent and sporadic posts for now, until my next one of course.
