enter the republic of loose. **** me what a band. best live act on the circuit and it showed. this is our second week on the tour and everyone is getting to know each other . we are playing in thurles tonight so not too sure what to expect. when we arrived at the venue me and the owner nearly boxed the heads off each other. gave me ****e for walking on a mopped floor. he was very close to getting my telecaster across the ceann (wanker). anyhoo. the venue itself looked pretty cool.
watched the loose sound check some of their new material and it rocks. considering the set up and pa the sound was pretty good but unfortunately thurles is not known for being a mecca for music lovers. as usual the bands rocked and were hugely professional considering the small crowd and venue. its something i have noticed on the tour is how professional everyone is. there is no bull****e. we do what we do but all the bands deserve much more than playing to small crowds. without sounding like a dick, all the bands are far too good for small crowds. headed up to athlone for the show the folowing day. thurles seemed like a nice place but the town was very quiet so we loaded the bus with alcohol and off we went to the midlands. me and doran still not touched alcohol. was eyes have stopped twiching so i think i have got through the wordt of it. go team blizzards. your mother is a fridge
WELL LADS. SAW YE PLAY IN ATHLONE THE OTHER DAY AND HAVE TO SAY YOUR SONGS ARE ALL SINGLES. DO YE DO THAT ON PURPOSE. VERY CATCHY. HEARD ALOT ABOUT TOUR SUPERDRUG TRACK SO WAS BIT DISSAPOINTED THAT YE DIDNT GET TO PLAY IT. HOPE TO SEE YE AT OXYGEN
Just wanted to say a quick hello. Saw ye play in HMV in Cork last Sunday and I was very very impressed. Gonna check you guys out at Oxegen for definite. Along with the loose and Director. I agree about the bands being too good for the small crowds. Or rather...too good for the crowd at Blast....no offence meant to anyone but I felt like one of the only ones at Blast there for the music. Oh well...such is life!
Can't wait to see you guys at Oxegen anyways. Should be a good one. Loving the song on the Faction cd!
cheers lorna, glad your digging the track and the faction album. pop up and say hello at oxygen . big up the cork posse. one of the nicest cities i have ever been in. hope next time there is a better crowd. spread the word sister.
