Weekly Update

Another update so soon you ask? Yes! We have some cool stuff to share and didn’t want to wait for the weekend. But first, this afternoon we were both really pleased to be able to watch the Imeall interview on TG4 from our respective cities stateside! It was a fantastic piece and highly recommend you to check it out at the link.

Like always, we’ve added even more setlists and show comments, including some from the earlier years. When we have just setlists for a gig, they are not added to the +Content section so you have to poke around for those.

We’ve made some new additions since we last posted: even more setlists from throughout the years (thanks Courtney!), more great photos in Stills, a new selection for the Jukebox with lots of new and old videos of performances of Finally, a gig poster by Ivi Rebova for a 2006 Prague show, a gorgeous video of Santa Maria from a 2002 Halloween show at the BE Gallery in New Jersey, another Santa Maria video from Vicar Street June 2001 (incl. funny Glen banter) and video of A Caution to the Birds at Pinkpop in 2005, among others! Of course Q & A is sitting there waiting for folks to tell us where they are from. Thanks to the 2 lovely ladies who have already commented! If we find that folks just aren’t interested in answering our questions we may do away with that idea. We’ll see….thanks for visiting!
