Today marks the 37th anniversary of the passing of Phil Lynott.
He's gone but never forgotten.
2022 is the year the gigs came back and I got to many of them.
Here's a big pic list of all the gigs I went to in 2022 in venues like 3Arena, Marley Park, Ormeau Park, The Academy, 3Olympia Theatre, Whelan's, Dolans Limerick, Fibber Magees and O***M
Plenty of great ones to come in 2023.
What was your favourite gig of this year, do let me know.
Heavy Metal Christmas and happy new year to you all.
Happy birthday Lemmy Kilmister Motörhead

Bad luck for Cruachan
Unfortunately we were not selected as one of the six acts to go to the televised final to represent Ireland at Eurovision. We received notification just now from Michael Kealy, head of music and entertainment at RTE. Michael said our song performed well with the jury but just didn't make the cut. He was very respectful and appreciative of what we have done and that acts like Cruachan would be interested in the first place. Regardless, we have certainly changed Eurovision in Ireland - before us, nobody was aware of anyone submitting songs for consideration, that has all changed as the media reaction to our entry was phenomenal. Shall we try again next year? Let's wait and see. We almost represented Ukraine once, maybe we should do that next year? 😅
We'll most likely release 'The Blacksmith' as a standalone single, probably around the same time as Eurovision 2023.
Thanks for all your support on this. We know you all wanted this to happen, probably the entire country wanted this as we would have brought such a huge change from the normal pop music but alas :(
Here are the stage times for Volbeat and Skindred.
Not sure what's happened to Na**lm Death.

Great news! I am cancer free 🤩 The surgery took everything cancerous out and it hasn’t spread! I’ll get local radiation therapy in February to make sure everything stays out.
I’m getting my energy back after the surgery and feel a huge relief to know it was successful! I’m not back to a 100% but I have no doubt the shows will give me the power push I need to rock with all of you on the upcoming European tour 🤘🏻
Thank you for your amazing support and well wishes 🙏🏻🙏🏻
