    Christy Moore tomorrow night

    I am going to see Christy Moore tomorrow night at the Manchester Bridgewater Hall. The last time I had the pleassure was in '97. Saw him a couple of times pre'97 and have always been fascinated by how one man and his acoustic guitar can hold an audience spell-bound. A most carismatic performer.
    His last few tours did clash with my work commitments, but not this time.

    Have a good weekend

    Peace

    Wow, there's a name I haven't heard in a while. If the live discs catured even 10% of the excitement of the show then you're in for quite an evening. Pretty impressive crowd interplay old boy has and for some reason I have the feeling you will be at the forfront of the "interaction".

    I was going to say be careful and behave well, but forget that. Have a celebration earned by a year's hard labor and make it count.

    Peace

    I'm not familiar with Christy Moore but this statement is very intriguing indeed. I'm a sucker for great accoustic guitar. I'll definately have to investigate.

    Have a great time at the show Bernd!

    I received a little package in the mail last night and I have to say that this Christy Moore stuff is very good. As Bobsticks pointed out, his live stuff is certainly lively. He's a great story-teller both inside and outside of his songs. After hearing the live CD this is an act that I would definately go see if he ever ventured to this side of the Commonwealth.

    Also received in my pre-christmas gift from overseas was Mike Scott and Miracle Mile. I've not heard either and look forward to giving them a listen. And Sigor Ros, (), which I own and am not particularly fond of. But thanks for the thought!

    What I'd really like to know is why it takes a package from the US three weeks to reach me and a package from the UK can get to me in under a week!
