Well Christy, what can I say except a heartfelt thanks for a wonderful gig, full of emotion and beautiful contact points to so many good people. Great putting faces to names of so many 4711ers, Lars, Patsy, Dave, Hilary of course, and the great Bourkey, Birgit and others over from Germany, England etc.
And thanks Christy for the shout-out, performing Tyrone Boys, and especially giving our sadly departed big sis Majella a special mention. Very very kind and thoughtful, a big thank you from our family, and yes, indeed, let the music keep our spirits high!
Until the next time!
Hi Christy,
Words cannot describe tonight in Vicar Street. It was just awesome.
Thanks very, very much for the request, it is deeply appreciated. I am conscious that you probably had to practice, but hopefully my request did not take up too much of your time. Be assured you made me one happy man tonight.
Enjoy the break and we look forward to Mullingar.
Ride on.
Best Regards.
Patsy
I loved that gig tonight in V St. it was very special…thanks for Deluge..I remember a time when that was a regular opening song….enjoy the few weeks off from the gigs…never stop…Monday is the new Saturday x
Christy, that was wonderful, thank you so much. I had just been thinking that it had been a long time since I’d heard you sing After the Deluge live, when you missed a couple of words and improvised such funny lyrics about how it had been so long that you’d forgotten the words – I admired the fact that your on the spot replacement lyrics were still in perfect scansion and rhyme. And Faithful Departed, and Spancil Hill so beautifully strong and moving. Well, the whole concert… thank you again. We both enjoyed it so much, and Mike was very happy to hear so many of his favourites. Anne
Mike and I have arrived in Dublin and we are very much looking forward to your gig tonight.
We have settled into our AirBnB, which is by the mouth of the Dodder and has great views of the Dodder, the Liffey and The Point. We’ve stocked up on supplies at Dunnes food hall, including Barry’s Master Blend, which I’ve not seen before.
Many thanks to you and all contributors on here for the fascinating discussions recently, and to Rebecca for sharing her videos of some of the beautiful songs from your last gig. It was great to see and hear Andy again.
I hope that with a week’s holiday I will be able to contribute a little more myself, I am looking forward to some relaxing days with TradFest events in the evenings.
My mum is currently going through chemo and was meant to attend your concert tonight with myself and my 3 siblings but she is too ill to attend. She is a huge fan – she first saw you 40 years ago in Cookstown. Her name is Bridie and her favourite song is the voyage. (From her 4 big waines John, Thomas, Lucy and Ella)
Enjoy the gig all…bon voyage Pat and family on a poignant occasion…
No spoilers and hopefully film chat here soon..after doubts during pre release run up to ‘A complete unknown’,I’m very happy to be eating my words now…last night I sat in a small,old style cinema and was engrossed in the film…huge respect to all concerned.
Well Christy, just waiting for Aer Lingus to pick me up and fly me to the island for your gig tonight.
My trusty iPod is playing your songs in my ear. I got to thinking, I can’t categorize your songs or even name a favourite. Depends on the mood and moment.
But you have such a diversity ….fun songs, sad songs, love songs, place songs, historic songs …a huge load of songs pointing out injustice world wide and at home.
Then Throne Boys came on. I counted eight different causes mentioned, all of which I remember experiencing, from Aughnacloy to the courthouse in Tralee, including Julia’s assassination by rubber bullet. Is there any other song world wide which points out so many injustices, and done in such a gentle manner?
The plane is calling me. Myself and my sister Noleen will be there, in memory of the first anniversary of the passing of our big sis Majella. She would have loved to be in the Vicar St choir tonight!
Have a great night to end this wonderful run!
Good morning, Mr Moore. First time visit this evening for my partner and I to Vicar st. As always we are looking emensly forward to it.
I had wondered if you would consider playing ‘My little Honda fifty’ this evening.
Many sincere thanks, Claire and Nicholas.
A dozen Vicar Streets, just like that…I’ve enjoyed every single minute of the ones I’ve attended so far and lookin’ forward to Monday night so much..have loved the mix of songs and as I mentioned a few weeks ago, no two shows are the same…loved the inclusion of so many of our Waldo’s songs in the set list. Boy in the wild is beautiful every time and as Wally’s second anniversary approaches next week he is high in my thoughts here…missed always…I’ve been dyin to shout out ‘Some of them were dreamers..’ at gigs there recently….I might get brave…was lucky enough to meet and photograph the great Denis Law a couple of times, and on one occasion spent a weekend with the 1968 team here in Dublin, he was a real gent along with the great George Best., Bill Foulks, Tony Aston, Charlton, Crerand, Nobby, Kidd, Stepney and others I can’t remember at this hour…a different class as Jimmy Magee might’ve said… Anyways…more memories to be made tomorrow in town just after 8pm..happy new year…Finglas boys to be..x
Hi Christy, just to say hello en to wish you a great night tomorrow in vicar street. I saw today a notification on Facebook of Traveling the world to see inspiration, and because it was about Ireland I took a look. Were mentioned as famous persons: U2, Sinéad O’Connor, Yeats…For completeness I included your name.
With love from Belgium
Hi Christy,
Well we’ll be off to Dublin on the train, on the train
tomorrow morning for the last of the Vicar Street run.
Caught Lisa O Neill on The Tommy Tiernan show.
She’s a bit special but she’s in great company
Dolores, Moya ,Mary B and C, Maura, Sinéad …
Have they ever asked you to be on the show ?
The Bob Dylan film is worth a look.
How the feck did he write all those songs between
1960 and 1965 ? And then all those other ones from
1965 to 2024 ? Fishes upstream for sure.
Looking forward to Monday evening’s cabaret.
