I hadn't seen Delorentos play in nearly 4 years. No particular reason why, it just never seemed to happen for us both!
The Workman's Club in Dublin announced a series of gigs called 'We Are Workmans' and one of the acts announced was Delorentos. The tickets were cheap, like real cheap! So I figured, yeap, that's for me!
So, off I headed in to Dublin on Friday night. I got there in plenty of time to see the support act State Lights. I'd never seen them before, but I enjoyed their set. It's a bit of a throwback to 80's rock like Simple Minds and U2, but it's enjoyable and they put on a good show. Worth checking out if you get a chance.
By now, the Workman's was heaving, full to capacity and everyone waiting for Delorentos to take to the stage. When they did, they did not disappoint. It was 2 hours of a non stop party atmosphere. The band gave it everything, the crowd gave it everything. It was a hot, sticky mess of a night and it was glorious, just glorious! It's probably the best gig I've been to all year and it will take a lot to beat it!
Just one minor thing. Red stage lights at gigs are the absolute worst, it really makes taking photos difficult! Anyway...
