I was due to see King Kong Company perform in Naas recently, but unfortunately, that festival got cancelled. So, when I was asked if I'd like to go see them in Dolans , Limerick, I obviously said yes! I hopped in the car after work last Friday and hit the road. A few stops alongt he way, and I was there by 19:30, in plenty of time to make the show. I've seen King Kong Company plenty of times now to know what to expect. I was curious to see how Bobby Fingers would perform though, what with him have a dodgy leg. I needn't have worried though. He bounced around the stage on one leg, waving a cane in the air like a mad man! Support on the night was from local hip-hop artist, Citrus Fresh , a new name to me, but I really enjoyed his set. Anyway, on to the photos:
The last gig of the weekend was Daithi and it was also in the Button Factory, about 90 minutes after King Kong Company!
Daithi has just released his latest album. L.O.S.S. and tonight was its launch party. It's a superb album, check it out on Spotify and then go buy a copy!
Anyway, on to the gig. I'd seen Daithi play a few times, but it's just normally himself on stage, joined every so often by a guest vocalist. Tonight he was joined by Elaine Mai on keys and other electronic wizardry. He also had a drummer, whose name escapes me. Vocals on the night came from Sinead White, Ailbhe Reddy and Tandem Felix. It was one hell of a party!
There's not many photos of the night... It was late, I was tired, I was dancing, I was... Anyway, yeah, great night!
