The Café Bar near The Headline Pub also comes recommended for those seeking pre-gig pints.

The sun is shining and blue skies outside my office window, and I'm about 30 minutes walk from the venue! Mind you, 'twas raining heavily up to recently. The usual four seasons in one day.

Hope your quiff stays erect.

The Ferry news isn't looking too great.... http://www.bbc.co.uk/travelnews/public/ferry.shtml

A mate called earlier to say his crossing to Dublin was cancelled... he's hoping to get on a later one.

Good luck to everyone . Fingers crossed.

Surely he could offer a discount for Swords locals ?

I am just back from the concert at the national stadium. Absolutely perfect! He even asked "Anybody from Swords here?" Great gig, although I wish he had played more classics. Still, incredible performance. The band are great also, that Gustavo the new pianist is quite good.

great gig definitely one of my favourites. I hope someone got a picture of the love heart of sweat on Morrissey's back? how funny was that?
Highlights for me were "Is it really so strange?" "because of my poor education" "teenage dad on his estate" and "the loop."

I thought when he came on first he looked tired, and it seemed to be the audience that energised him and he soon got into a playful mood. Aer Fungus reference was very similar to comments he made over 3 years ago at the INEC in Killarney, if i remember correctly he said they had caused his cold on that occasion and last night he stated they don't like people. Let's hope he never travels with Ryanair

Not to focus on the negatives by any means but two things I was wondering about. At one point in the show, possiby during "Don't make fun of daddy's voice" Boz stopped playing and was motioning to someone in the crowd making a fist mouthing what looked like "f***in don't." I couldn't seem to figure out what that was about. Also for the encore it seemed like Boz was having trouble with his amp and then banged down his guitar on it, then leaned over on his guitar for over a minute looking very pale and sick. Anyone else notice this? I was worried for him. He also seems to have got a few new guitars if I'm not mistaken.

All in all, a great night. The new material from Doll and the Kicks is also superb. It is late and, this here is my bed and I must lie.
