Dublin in a rainstorm

@RobLooseCannon I think there was a turntable years ago in the floor of its garage on Hawkins St so that the CEO could drive in forwards, then have the car turned so he could drive forwards when leaving.

@AskJoeTV @gguworld Respectfully disagree. Serviceable, swept along by the greater talent in the band. His drumming suited a lot of the music, but nowhere near the pantheon of greats. When you watch their live gigs with excellent percussionists on stage you get a glimpse of what might have been.

@ShakaInc @BlackLCult The dowels are not what they seem...

@RolandGunnTN Looking dapper there on the Irish American prep circuit, @Trickstersworld...

I think it's funny that Irish-Americans so thoroughly own the New England prep brand now that people regularly confuse them for WASPs.

@yunclesage @ljdfilm Shane Meadows' entire canon has to be on your list then.

@bigmonsterlove It's a classic. Richard Burton at his finest, and it was filmed in Dublin, with Smithfield standing in for Checkpoint Charlie. Love that film.

@1000GigGuy @kraftwerk @BGETheatre Also, the tribute to @ryuichisakamoto was particularly moving.

[OscarGodolphin @oscargodolphin]

@pants Positively Lynchian... Excellent.

[OscarGodolphin @oscargodolphin]

@1000GigGuy @Vicar_Street I also suspect the last return (in darkness by way of protest) was after checking the minimum duration he had to perform contractually without penalty.

[OscarGodolphin @oscargodolphin]

@ThomasSilken Often have to pause when I remember he is gone so soon, but take consolation from the sublime musical legacy he left.

@signifyingwolf watching a hero, Will/Bonnie with Harem Scarem, Dublin 2004(?) ;\

@AkaPaulHoward Fish still getting headline gigs since the acrimonious Marillion split 40 years ago. Fair play to him.

@paranoiacs Hard to beat the unique experience of the full 69 song set performed over three nights though! Quite the emotional rollercoaster. Came out appreciating the magic of that album even more.

[OscarGodolphin @oscargodolphin]

@powerofdreams30 I was at that! Glorious chaos.

[OscarGodolphin @oscargodolphin]

@hering_david Managed to get to all three of these performances. Hearing Invitation to the Blues, Heart of Saturday Night, Hoist that Rag, etc etc was a life milestone never to be forgotten.
