    Noticed that earlier. Still no official announcement, but would expect it in the morning. And confirmation hopefully, if it's solo or w/ The Sleeping Souls.

    Yay!!!! Saw him in Glasgow last month (12th time) and the band are the tightest they've ever been. This better be legit.

    That'll do nicely as well. Wonder if he'll do a couple of smaller solo gigs like he did a couple years back.

    Hey hynesie, I was at that Glasgow gig too! First time in the Barras, was not disappointed.

    Looking forward to this double header....

    We seem to go to a lot of the same gigs, I probably know you to see.

    It was awesome wasn't it? Really hope he brings skinny lister over with him, they're in Europe with him the weeks beforehand so maybe...

    Yep, Skinny Lister and Will Varley again would be great (I missed Will in Glasgow, unfortunately), a crowd-surfing double bass in the Academy would indeed be awesome.

    Well, that's a first, a Dublin gig being significantly cheaper than a UK gig. Both tickets got, for €18 in the Academy, it would be madness not to!

    Is the Dublin show sold out? Can't tell if it's that or just ticketmaster acting up.

    Yeah. FT really puts it all out there.

    Shame about the guy who walked out during 'Glory Hallelujah', leaving his girl behind. :pac:

    Maybe it was my singing was the problem, 'cause I was belting that refrain.
    His friend stayed to the end of the main set.

    Funny song that one, I was looking around during it and there were less hands in the air than most songs but those that do sing along sing it with passion. For me that is about as religious an experience as I'm gonna get :P

    Great couple of days stalking Frank on his Irish mini tour! :) Two great shows in Belfast and Dublin and the in-store appearance in Tower was a chance to meet the man and hear some songs he doesn't play so often any more e.g. The Real Damage. Hope he doesn't leave it as long next time.....
