Just because I post a photo on the Internet, it does not give anyone the right to grab a copy and use it on their own site. It certainly does not give anyone the right to edit that image and remove it's watermark! Why do I say this? Well, a Music, Art, Film and Food print/online magazine here in Ireland did just that with one of my images. Was I annoyed when I saw the image on their site? Yes!

I had planned on an early night last night, but it was brought to my attention that Bunoscionn were playing out the road at the Prosperous Music Festival, so the early night was ditched!
It’s been a while since I last saw Bunoscionn… No idea why, they’re a brilliant live band and it’s impossible to have a bad time at one of their gigs!
Bunoscionn play an interesting set, Folk, Trad, Dance, nothing is off limits and It’s all good. They do a rather brilliant trad infused version of Faithless's Insomnia that just makes you want to dance. Their sets do go on for a long long time so don’t expect to go home early!
