2019-08-30 Strangers With Guns - The Grand Social

So a while back, I stumbled across a video by Strangers With Guns for their latest track 'Monkey King'.


Anyway, I tweeted it out and the band got in contact with me.  They mentioned that they were having an album launch in the Grand Social in Dublin and they wondered if I'd like to head along.  Well... I think we know what the answer was, and so last Friday, off I went in to Dublin!

I got to the Grand Social and headed upstairs to the venue. I always feel like a bit of a tool saying "Hi, I'm on the guest list." and tonight was no different.  If I ever get used to it, you've permission to slap me.  Only once though!  Turns out I was indeed on the guest list, so yeah, no embarrassing moments there...

Anyway, on the night, the support acts were Brand New Dead Things and Easy Tide and they got the night off to a brilliant start. By the time Strangers With Guns hit the stage, the crowd were nicely warmed up and ready to rock, and for the next hour or so, we did!

Anyway, look, this is not a review site really, I just go to gigs of bands I like and take photos of them. Will I go see these guys again?  Yes.  Should you go and see them?  Yes.  That's all I have to say!

Check out the photos below:

Greatest goalkeeper never to play for Ireland at any level. A failed rock star. Now I take pretty pictures of Rock n' Roll, Burlesque and Political Activism.
