What an awesome night with Shane Sullivan Music and band, in Athy Community Arts Centre We are so blessed to have such talent in our midst. Live music at its best!

Calling all fans of Sultans Of Ping - this radio doc by Paul McDermott is worth taking a listen to - the story of one of Ireland’s truly great bands rte.ie/radio/2xm/danc…

Can't wait! Last time for me was in the National Stadium with 10,000 Maniacs in the 80's This will be a very special night, and it wouldn't surprise me if a second night was added. Interest will be huge :)

Mary Reynolds is someone who has a genuine connection with nature and this amazing world, which which is collapsing all around us. But we can make a difference, bit by bit. Have a listen - be inspired.

Looking forward to hearing the solo album...its been a while.

music.youtube.com/watch?v=lU79fE… Chaos For The Fly, solo album from Grian Chatten, out 30th June. Stopped me in my tracks. Definitely worth checking out.

One of Ireland’s most magical places, a glimpse into what’s possible in terms of protecting and nurturing biodiversity in an extraordinary landscape.

hotpress.com/music/nick-kel… So sad to hear this. A lovely guy, with an infectious passion for music. Always loved catching up with him in Kilkenny at various music festivals.

Natalie Merchant 3Olympia Theatre MCD Productions I was talking to Paul Donohue before the gig and he showed me a great pic he took of Michael Stipe while R.E.M. HQ were soundchecking in the SFX in 1984. Hasn't changed a bit. 😏 This is it: x.com/pdapauldonohue…

Natalie Merchant was truly sublime last night 3Olympia Theatre . The 3 hour mesmerising show left us all feeling privileged to have been a part of it. MCD Productions

Thoroughly enjoyed last night's programme. Brought me back to the wonderful "Here comes the Night" show, back in the 90's

Farewell then to Karl Wallinger. In another world, in a different time, World Party would’ve been a household name. Sad news.

Great to hear John Murry and Jane Foom Hylands Burren Hotel last Wednesday.

One of the most underrated, influential & brilliant Post Punk bands of the 80s: The Chameleons. Up there with Joy Division & the Sound. Playing Dublin in December. Won’t cost you a small fortune to buy a ticket.

A memorable evening with The Chamelians in Dublin, last night. And when they came back on stage for the encore set, they blew the roof off the venue.

Up there with the legendary Whelan's Christmas gig, Something Happens Set Theatre tonight was magic!

Well done Bro David Donohue for pulling this together.
