The Gigs

For those of you who were at the launch of spunout.ie, you probably noticed the entertainment. Well we were it.

Who is The Music Diarist?

17 year old Conor is from Donegal and hopes to make a career out of music some day.

Date: 13 May 2005

We were the first band that played straight after the launch. Personally I wasn't happy with my performance…I forgot my words but everybody said we were good (probably trying to make us feel better). Still, as long as they're happy who cares.

Then things were quiet until I got a gig in Glenties. So this was the chance to redeem ourselves and we did. Brilliant night in there! Massive crowd and good craic. We played well and were asked back to play again.

Next we were asked to play a gig in Ardara. We played great but it wasn't as good as the Glenties gig, however at the end we were going well and we had a wee singsong to finish off. Pity bout the crowd (they were poor).

Ah now the busy weekend: we had 4 gigs in 3 days: god was that cool! Especially when one gig is at the Rory Gallagher and another is a Battle of the Bands in Leitrim.
Talk to you all soon. And I'll tell you the gossip…
Experimental Shortcuts kick ass!
