You could be forgiven for thinking you’ve stepped back in time with Gary Numan, Midge Ure, The Frames, The Mission, Protex, Kerbdog, Ugly Kid Joe and The Skids all in action this week. Royal Hospital in Kilmainham has some open air gigs which look promising. I heart Jeff Buckley gig in Whelans should be a cracker, these tribute nights always bring some very welcome guests.
