Had the pleasure and catching Tadhg Cooke in DA2 last nite, who played some lovely mellow tunes, lovely soothing voice and very easy on the eyes aswell,his cd The Sparks,has been added to my collection anyway!

Definately 1 to watch out for.

piscean

I'm sure the EP is great, bought it @ his gig however it doesn't work on my cd player or any1 elses!

polarbelly

tut tut

he's plain in da2 this unday night i believe... bring a big stick and seek your revenge:D

You must have gotten the dud Piscean.

But sometimes, just sometimes, the dud can turn out to be the best. The Ugly Duckling. Cinderella. SuperTed.

I'd treasure your copy if I were you.

Hmmmm it was only €5 so I won't lose sleep over it, I must frame it though!
Any1 know where I'd pick up a copy of his cd that works?

tiggertigger

hey there folks

Emmmm sorry about the faulty CD. It was brought to my attention yesterday, not sure who bought them or how many were sold (hoping it's only a few). Thankfully it's not as serious a problem as I originally thought.

If you know something about CD writing read on... if not, skip to
the last paragraph....

These faulty CDs weren't "closed". Which means (if you don't already know) that although all the right tracks are on the CD, only a computer will be able to read it. The good news is that it
takes only a few seconds to fix.
If you have EasyCD or another CD writing program (Nero, Toast etc etc), then all you have to do is:
Open the program.
Put the CD in the drive.
Then look at the properties of the CD.
You should be given an option to "close session" or "close CD".
Once that's done the CD should be playable in pretty much all CD players known to civilisation.

So, if you didn't understand any of the above.... then give me a shout here on the message board and I'll arrange to give you a new (and working!) CD. Sorry about all the hassle.
There goes my good name.
And by the way, Mick! what the hell! can I get you arrested for incitement? What's with the big stick and the hitting? Beware Polar boy!

That's all. Let me know if you hear of any more problems.
Thanks and Apologies
Tadhg

phew!
crisis averted.
hey isn't that an iceberg ahead?
never mind... this boat can take it.

Tadhg, what did u think of my mates playing after u in DA2 ie The Greenbacks, the drummer is a v good friend of mine,1st time I actually had d opportunity to catch him play, between ur good self and the Greenbacks I had myself a great nite, good end to the Paddys w/end!:D

tiggertigger

I must say I enjoyed the night's music (as I did the whole
weekend). Well organised and a great range of acts in the
various venues of wexford st. There was a bit of a wild feeling
in the streets though.... it was like there was a riot waiting
to happen.... A bit eerie really.

Actually speaking of the greenback's drummer,
a friend of this band I used to know years ago was at the gig
specifically to check out the drummer. Check out in the technical
way, he's a drummer too you see.

piscean

oh rite once it was in the technical sense and not in a malen seeking male for fun and frolicking sense:D I'll be sure to tell Sean that he has an admirer of his work!

twas a metaphor... yes thats it

for getting the stick(ones good self) to the revenge (the next gig)

sometimes i'm so arty i even blow myself away

piscean

well u won't be bored by the looks of things Tadhg.

Haven't had a chance to sort out the cd but i'm sure it'll be grand.

tiggertigger

a valiant attempt to clear your name
I'll let you off with a warning
I'm thinking I'm free on monday
so if I'm not washing my hair
(unlikely - I rarely wash my hair - not much to wash)
I'm going to mosey down to Whelan's
for yourselves and 66electric
I'm not really sure how to spell mosey
So I'm going to assume I'm right

roxy

Oh just by the by Mick, I'll have you know that I plugged your monday gig on the show last week DESPITE it clashing with my show. Coz that's just the kinda of girl I am. Awash with love.

And apologies again that I couldn't turn the gig into an OB as you requested so cheekily but really, I couldn't be arsed going to all the trouble. And it'd be a lot of trouble, believe me. More than I could care for.

Tigger, you've plenty of hair. Relax please. You're rapunzel compared to some, my big big brother namely. you may or may not have noticed but he's got problems up there. (better than having problems down there). Lucky he's a giant so few can see the top of his head but it's gettin shiny believe me. see that sheen. but dont mention it or he'll bait ye! Ah no he likes you. ehh...don't be alarmed...

Roxy!!

so yeah mick, have a good gig.
