I've been a Sugababes fan since I first heard Overload way back in 2000. It was, and still is, a pop classic. Over the years, I managed to catch them live a couple of times. The first time I caught Sugababes live was way back at Creamfields 2002. Unfortunately Siobhan had left the band by then and been replaced by Heidi, so I never got to see the original lineup. Did it matter much at the time to me? No, not at all, I was just their to party! As a side note, post Sugababes, Siobhan went on to release two solo albums, Revolution in Me in 2003 and Ghosts in 2007.

I do like going to see John Spillane play… It’s much more than a music gig, the interaction with the crowd is great, the stories within the songs and, indeed, between songs are fantastic.

Support on the night was from the excellent Enda Reilly. I’d not seen Enda play before, but I really enjoyed what I saw of his set (I was a little late getting to the gig!).
John invited Enda back up on stage towards the end of the gig just to wrap it all up.
Anyway, that’s it. That’s John Spillane in the Nuns Chapel in McAuley Place in Naas.
