They are one of the headliners and being paid by Diageo so will show up where they are told I'd imagine. Looks like its definitely Texas from what I'm getting from people working in Smyths.

Apologies, didn't realise they were part of the overseas bands being brought in.

Was just onto UL and The Coronas tonight is not for Arthurs day its part of the UL 40 year anniversary and tickets are only available to UL Students and Staff! Sickened, anyone know of anyone not using their tickets? Worth a try

Primal Scream played the O2 less than a year ago, I doubt very much they'll suddenly show up in Smyths

The smoking cage in Costelloes would be more Primal Screams kind of vibe :pac:

Texas sound checking in Smyths at the minute.

It's true. Was speaking to one of the managers. There's rumblings of a 2nd big act making an apearence in Smyths too it seems.

My friend in the queue outside Smyths and you're right it is Texas

She's fecking thrilled. Thanks for the heads up Vertigo100

Dolans is the place to be in Limerick today. Unless this act also makes an appearance at Smyths.

I heard that the act in dolans is swapping with Texas so both places get both acts. Can to tell who's down in dolans?

Volvic12

That's excellant news for Limerick if thats the case that Smyths and Dolans will swap over acts.
I actually can't elaborate as I don't know myself but my source is v.v.good (in the know) and I all I was told was to go to Dolans if in Limerick this evening. He said I wouldn't be disapointed.

I wonder if it's The Coronas playing Dolans after playing in UL today

Vertigo100

Texas about to come on.

What exactly are you into then because I don't know your tastes therefore I haven't a clue as to why you wouldn't be disappointed.

Tell me yes or no, is it Ellie Goulding?

Think I have the name right. Can't make out what the front man is sayong

Vertigo100

Of course she is...

Well, that's me in for the night so. I won't be bothered missing the rest. I would imagine Fatboy Slim would play Dolans seeing as D.I.E is on.

EDIT: Wait, I'm listening to to the interview. It could be a phone interview, no? It never says she's in the studio. This thing is a shambles, what good is a surprise with no hints? Like, what?

Thomas20

how long is the music on for and is it already full in these places?

Vertigo100

Texas finished in Smyths. No other headline act in limerick. Confirmed by the GM of Smyths. Texas were however excellent. FBS is playing the old oak in cork.

Ellie was in Cork (SO CLOSE), Example and Mumford... are in Dublin so anyone holding out should stop right now.
