They played a lot of songs from the current album last night together with Happy Hour from the Housemartins and Beautiful South songs Song for Whoever Don't Marry Her A Little Time Perfect 10 Old Red Eyes and Rotterdam.
Did they play Blackwater Banks at the Dublin gig? ------------- Double Maxim without doubt the greatest drink in the world |

Reflecting on last night got me thinking about a gig back in 2009 in Sunderland when Dave Hemingway Alison Wheeler and co played a largely Beautiful South set the support band were Baby Jenx from Dublin who were excellent its a shame they didn't make it.

Yeah they played it alright. Went down very well as did most of the new stuff (She Got the Garden is a great tune). Your setlist from last night sounds pretty similar to the Dublin setlist to be fair. All round a very enjoyable gig. I'm off the Queens of the Stone Age tonight which is a different ball game altogether! |

I'm not on Twitter but I was sent a clip which I think is the one being referred to. It was the band in a hotel room warming up for a gig by doing an acoustic version of Happy Hour. It's worth a look if you're a fan, although I still prefer the original. |

There are a couple of places which are about 11km from the city centre on booking.com which are priced in the €100 - €140 range. Alternatively, depending on where you're living, it may be handy enough to get somewhere in the likes of Drogheda or Maynooth. |
