    I LOVE Blue October :D The are in my top 2 fave bands. I absolutely love Justin's voice and lyrics.

    I don't know anyone else who likes them either, so it's nice to know there's someone else out there who digs them too!

    I actually LOVE Blue October
    They're so good
    Yeah you're right though, I think I only know two other people who like them
    and it's because I got them listening to them [:

    i think their best albums has to be a live "Argue With A Tree", its just amazing to listen to. I also really like their first album "The Answers"

    Quite like Blue October. Not a huge fan by all means just like the odd few songs.

    18th Floor Balcony (Live one is terrific), Calling You, Fairy Tale, Into the Ocean, 2 A.M Lovesick & X Amount of words are all good. :)

    Only discovered this band very recently.Justin's voice is awesome and "Hate Me" is one of the best i heard in years,very powerful stuff.

    "hate me" is one of my favourites also, try listening to "come in closer" or "HRSA" both brilliant i thinks. also "black orchid" is good stuff

    Tuesday the 14th? I just went there tonight before I realized that tonight, Tuesday is the 12th and Thursday is the 14th. the lad behind the bar said that a regular singer is on tonight and that some band is on Thursday night.

    Whats the story I'd love a Blue October tribute, is it on Thursday or is all this just a load of bull****?

    Yo let us know if there, if you know of another Blue october night, been a massive fan since 2004, love them, just wish they'd come to Ireland.

    I was only looking at the dates over the weekend, seriously thinking about it.... Must look at the finances to see if its possible!!

    I had tickets to one if their gigs in England back when they released Approaching Normal album but couldn't make it in the end, was gutted!!!

    Are you thinking about it?


  • Registered Users Posts: 13,164 ✭✭✭✭sammyjo90


    Ah that sucks! Yeah I am, I went to their london gig for any man in america..went on my own tho, the gig was great but the being in london on my own part wasnt! Looked at flights and stuff and Dublin to gatwick was only about 60 quid..but that was a week ago! Plus accomodation etc


  • Registered Users Posts: 4,500 ✭✭✭ReacherCreature


    Are they not coming to Ireland? Surely they'll get a nice amount at one of the smaller venues?


  • Registered Users Posts: 13,164 ✭✭✭✭sammyjo90
