So you're not a Smokey fan?
Ha ha, I actually saw them down there, but in my defence it was at our work Christmas party.
So you're not a Smokey fan?
not a fan of florence and the machine doesnt live up to the hype imo but good to see cork getting a decent gig for a change.
Well I am at liberty to say that the date is definitely Saturday December 5th at Cork Opera House. What I also heard is that the deal is not yet sealed and signed, but that should be happening in the coming weeks. If it turns out that Florence cannot be accomadated (for whatever reason)a band of equivalent profile will be there instead.
At the moment the headline act for Murphys Big Night Out is The Magic Numbers http://www.littlebignightsout.com/2/0/54,2009-12-05-big_night_out.html
Not exactly an equivalent act to Florence !
There are several other good acts in there two, Lisa Hannigan, Villagers and Armoured Bear.
So, while it's my understanding that talks with Florence did happen, at the moment there is no confirmation of them appearing.
Theres also the possibility of additional acts to be announced according to the link above.
Registration for ticket draw entry starts today at 12 noon.
Does anyone know what the deal is with registering for tickets? When you register with the site does it mean you get free tickets or you're in a ticket draw? Or is it the only way to buy tickets? It doesn't say anything, i'm sick of registering for every little thing online, i'll be getting emails from murphys forever after it, annoying.
