  1. Agreed, I saw The National there last summer and it is a lovely setting to see a band, especially with good weather.

    I will be attending.

    Yeah, The National also played at Live at the Marquee in Cork last year. It would be great to see Wilco there too. The Marquee is as good a tent venue as you'll get in Ireland.

  2. I have a friend in Ireland raising a Wilco fan and would love to take his son 10 yrs old to a Wilco show without leaving the country.

    He reports its been 3 years since last stop on the Emerald Isle.

     

    He's in luck. The Iveagh Gardens on 10th July. As good an outdoor venue as you'll get in Ireland.

  3. Hi. My first time posting here prompted a real treat last night. They were in great form. I'd seen them in London but this was better I think. Cracking version of Diamond Light among others and the solo set was brilliant. My Dad said, "It's hard to beat one man and a guitar when it's that good".

     

    Jeff's banter with the audience was very funny and included criticising their "amateur whistling" and inviting us all to boo them as the band weren't "needy".

     

    Venue is super but was nowhere near sold out which made last night that bit more intimate. I've been to two great sold out and fairly raucous Wilco gigs in this venue before and hoping they come over again soon. Not sure if this was posted elsewhere but this article was in yesterday's Irish Times. Some mention of new Wilco album at the end...
