That was some week last week. If you had of told me in 1990 that I would see separate shows from Conflict, Paul Heaton, Jawbox, Descendents and Moving Targets in the space of 8 days I would have said “pull the other one, next you will be saying there will be a global pandemic and we will be in lockdown for 2 years”.
And now on a Tuesday night in Dublin you have a choice between Martin Stephenson from the Daintees who is playing with John Perry from the only ones, or you have Gregor Barnet from the Menzingers doing a solo show OR you can go see Tigers Jaw. All on a Tuesday night, in Dublin. Mad stuff, brilliant but mad.
The hardcore fans have Jesus Piece re-arranged gig in the Grand Social on Thursday but big one of the week is the quick return of Chewie to Whelans. I missed their Easter show there due to Covid so am excited about seeing the band again.
