So last night was a bit good!
See Niall Fennessy’s LIVE THROUGH A LENS Brilliant pix here!
Slash, Myles, Brent, Todd and Frank managed to successfully rock The Olympia!
From start to finish, this was a pure Rock n Roll show..
With the band introduced by notorious bad boy, Charlie Sheen, who then went on the conduct the Charlie Sheen Show from box 9 of the theatre, keeping everyone entertained, including the band, who were playing on stage and watching Charlie’s antics! (Including nearly falling out of the box!)
This is not your typical review, I’m not going to run through song lists and ruin encores etc, but I do hope you get the 15 minute version of Rocket Queen that we got on Sunday!
Conspiritors Todd (bass & vocals) and Frank (rhythm & vocals) struck me as two heads who’ve won the lotto several times over and are loving the RnR attention, both are very much in love with their hair and appear to be in a shampoo commercial while playing on stage!
I won’t bore you with how brilliant Brent Fitz was keeping it all together behind the kit.. So Solid!
Myles is faultless, vocals are note perfect and he looked to me to having a ball..
Slash, even dripping wet from sweat, is the definition of cool. An amazing player, so comfortable with his bandmates. He’s found a groove with these guys and it works.
A 2 hour solid show, you will not be disappointed.
Afterwards the entourage moved to Lillies, where Slash drank water and Charlie drank…. emm.. More!
Our party of 4 “after showed” in “Abra” Portmarnock and we even saw Slash there, a guy having a slash (on the street) there!
Rock N Roll!
Fu*king cool Marty! We’re going tonight. Any idea on where tonight’s after party is?
Fantastic Gig…Rocket queen was sensational..not going to mention other songs that were played but were fantastic. Everyone knows Charlies in town so the element of surprise would be lost tonight should he turn up..RE Todd & Frank they’ve been doing their stuff for years and finally got their big break (look up “it’s not you it’s me” by Todd Kerns..Best rock song you never heard) and they are enjoying like everyone else last night every Minute of it…
I thought the band treatment that opened the show were very good, song sounded very ac/dc-like, very entertaining, bar the little test on guitar and his sappy faces he was pulling. Myles was quality, dude has a fantastic voice. Really commands the stage too. Watching slash work his guitar was worth the money itself. The guy just wreaks of awesomeness. As for Charlie….. What a f*ckin tool!
Great gig. Had a super night.
