hansard played a few new tracks one or two older ones and then he invited the commitment on stage they sang 3/4 songs then Liam came on and they all jammed together for 4/5 songs, finished up with forever young - that was it. I really like hansard and his stuff but i did think liam would have played more. Am tryin to pick up a ticket for tonight - cant find 1 anywhere!! - was a savage gig though, best ive been to in whelans id say.
