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 Unfortunately Siobhan had left the band by then and been replaced by Heidi, so I never got to see the original lineup.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.

Last weekend was busy... 3 gigs, 2 nights, 5 acts and a few DJs thrown in for good luck!
The first gig of the weekend was Ultan Conlon in McAuley Place in Naas.
I've seen Ultan perform before and it was a great show. Tonights affair was a much more intimate acoustic gig, but none the less, was fantastic. I was trying to think who he reminded me of and mid gig, it came to me, Roy Orbison.
Anyway, I'd suggest you check him out live and sure give him a listen to on Spotify.
Support on the night was from Fia Rua. I'd heard of Fia Rua before, but this was the first time I'd got to see him perform. An excellent set and I'd like to see more of him!
