Ticket arrived in the post today....looking forward to it now!

Their new album sounds a bit more country than previous efforts, would that be fair?

it was advertised as a country show from the beginning. albeit a rockin country show

Cheers Ned, is there a support band for the Dublin gig, do you know? As the start time on the ticket is 8.30, I'm presuming probably not....

Changing gears are the support. SS on at 10:30 according to twitter

....and bloody good they were too (although they actually came on about five past ten or thereabouts)!

Short enough set from Eddie and the boys @ around 70-75 minutes, but it certainly rocked! Changing Gears were OK, liked a couple of their songs but wasn't blown away. Grand Social was hot and reasonably full by the time Supersuckers came on, but it defintely wasn't a sellout.

What I wouldn't give for a co-headliner with Jason & The Scorchers....

Ended up going myself. Not bad considering Eddie is the only original member left. I reckoned it wouldn't be any longer than an hour for €15. Picked up the country cd at the merch.

Thanks for the info. On a similiar note there is a chance of some Dan Baird and Chuck Prophet dates happening in 2017 - according to FB.

Gig is listed as the INEC in Killarney, no Dublin gig this time?
