The Trim 2025 gig last night was, even for an ol’ fogie like me, fecking brilliant. A moxy load of local talent all washed down by The Magic Numbers. I’ve lots of photos and will post a few here and a lock on Pix.ie when I get them sorted. Here we have Brian who will appear in another guise later. He’s one of the soundest lads around and a mighty dancer!! Well done to Martin Tighe for pulling off the impossible. I’m looking forward to next year already. See more about last night’s goings on at the following locations:  Culch & Peter Donegan.

Donal: The Magic Numbers at Band on the Wall

§ December 5th, 2009

A few weeks ago I headed over to Manchester for a spot of footie and looked up gig listings for the weekend.  I spotted that The Magic Numbers were playing on the Sunday night so I thought why not?  I didn’t really know much of their stuff but I had heard some songs.  It’s always great to go to a gig with little expectation and be subsequently blown away by the buzz and atmosphere that they generate.  It was a thoroughly enjoyable gig and for those of you luck enough to get a ticket to see them tonight in The Opera House here in Cork as part of the Murphy’s Little Big Nights Out campaign, enjoy!  I, along with 7000 others apparently, unfortunately got a lovely rejection email from Murphy’s.  It felt like a PFO for a job application!

Just a short note on the venue, Band on the Wall, it looks like it has a great line-up with different types of music going on there all the time.  Well worth checking out if you’re in Manchester.

Lots more photos in the full set on Flickr.
