Sunday morning & i would love to sleep but the A/C is on the blink and it's in the mid 20's i'd say...A great great night in The Gaelic Theatre and about 400 turned up demanding Ballads. Cameron & Colly warmed up the crowd with 2 great sets and i took over about 10 30.. and off we went..The crack was 91 for the next 2 and a half hours with Joxer getting an outing twice, my new song ''County Bondi'' also got a double shot and it went down as i had hoped..flags waving, tears falling, irish boys calling their mam's from their mobiles, girls hugging each other trying not to spill their double double vodka..you can picture the scene.
All the gigs have been so different and i have been thankfull for the ability to adapt as per concert.. and concerts is what they were. Canberra was a completly silent listening crowd wanting to hear and to listen, Perth and Melbourne was rowdy and fun but with both audiences willing to sit & listen when it was required and For the Gealic Theatre well i just sang because that crowd was in festival mode and that was ok with me. When Dean turned up the house lights during some songs you could just see the energy as well as feel it!!
So 5 down and 1 to go and i need some rest before we head to Penrith Geals Irish Club just outside Sydney. A bit of an emotional hangover from last night which i need to snap out off.. France just won 1-0 but it's only half time. Sinead is keeping the home fires burning which is a much harder job than mine.. William has kept the cows fed fair play... I hope someone reads this!!!
