Just looking to see what bands are playing tonight in Dublin...
Anyone know if any of these are worth seeing....
Am thinking maybe the Open Mic Night at the Legal Eagle might be alright, usually you get a few ok guitarists at those things.....
Well Isotope in JJs will be pretty good, they are a resident jazz band. Hugh Buckley is the guitar player and he is damn good - has a few solo albums out and stuff, he is also a lecturer at the rock school in ballyfermont.
Saul Williams in Crawdaddy will be excellent. I got my ticket for it last week. It is rap esque music. More poetry with a beat behind it really. Very good stuff. Look for songs of his called Telegram, Grippo and Black Stacey to give you an idea of what it will be like.
Just like to make a comment about Saul Williams gig last night - it was excellent. He is a modern day Martin Luther King or someone in that vein. I strongly recommend that people check out some of the aforementioned songs. The man is an absolute genius and a gifted lyricist.
