Two Days in Dublin
Brendan and I went to Dublin for a couple of days to see Elbow at Vicar Street Monday night. The concert was fantastic. I've heard it said more than once that the true test of a band's talent is if they sound even better live than they do on the album, and this was definitely the case. I'll write more about Elbow later though. Here is another little photo essay from the last couple days.
(You know how much I usually deplore this sort of couple-y smugness, but I think the artistic value of this shot makes it worth including.)Brendan and Diarmuid after lunch at The Bank on Dame Street. Probably the best gastropub in Dublin--food, service, and original nouveau decor all awesome.Shitmonkey: the only toy Diarmuid and his brother Donnacha ever had, apart from a Lego set.
And here are some shots taken from the balcony at the Elbow concert:
