    Juts thought I'd stick this here for any Dandy Warhols fans that didn't know they are playing tomorrow in Vicar Street.

    I only found out about it yesterday. Seems to be plenty of tickets left. :)

    I suppose they are not that popular anymore.
    I've bought my ticket couple of months ago.
    This will be the fifth time I am seeing them live (4 previous times inGreece, where I come from) . I had a good time every single time - highlight being a 3-hour-long set back in 2003 (I think).
    Been checking recent setlists - half of the songs are from the "Come Down" and "13 Tales from Urban Bohemia" albums. So, I expect this to be a good one!!!

    I have never seen them before and really looking forward to it, should be a good show, I think Ham Sandwich are support.

    What an amazing gig !!!

    Not a huge fan but that was brilliant ! The new album sounds great !

    And that keyboardist/bass/solo artist has to be the hottest woman in rock :pac:

    Was a great gig. I still can't believe they opened with Be-in. I'll die happy now.

    what a f***ing amazing concert!!!!!
    agree with Tommyboy2222 that the new songs sounded great live!!
    And the people went crazy in some of the oldies!!!!
    I was in such a state of euphoria after the concert that I went and bought one of the t-shirts, although they were not super great (I'd love a t-shirt with the "welcome to the monkey house" album cover)

    this is what setlist.fm gives and looks pretty accurate. (not sure about the last one, after Country Leaver the lights went up and music started playing so I left)

    They finished with a Rolling Stones number.

    And then Zia sang a song on her own .

    Should have hung on for a few more minutes !!!!

    Had to leave before the lights came on, so I take it they weren't messing when they said at the start of the show that they were gonna play for two and half hours?

    I was impressed actually. 8 people on stage, it seemed really crowded on stage. Very good singer - both her voice and her physical presence are amazing!!
    Didn't know much about them, but I will definitely check them out further!

    They are one of the best Irish live acts around.
    It's like a party ever time they play!

    Check out their album 'White Fox'. Some fantastic tracks on it if you enjoyed the gig.

    Awesome, that's good to hear. I love Ham Sandwich. I saw them live a few months ago in the Academy and they were amazing, Podge really knows how to get the crowd going and I could look at Niamh ALL day.
