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:
It seems like I've seen Elly D more times this year than I have in any other year. That's no bad thing though, she's bloody good!
Anyway, tonight she's in Ubh Cafe in Newbridge playing a very intimate set. Artists probably don't make a hell of a lot from these gigs, which is a pity, but they do create a connection with fans, something you don't get in the larger venues.
If you haven't caught Elly D live yet, I can't recommend her enough. I really like what she does.

Support on the night was from Gemma Cox, a new name to me, even though we both live in the same town! We're sure to hear a lot more about her though, stunning voice and some great songs.
