We7 recently launched here so I decided to go take a look. It’s currently playing me Radio Conjure One which is nice.
I never signed up for a pay account for Last.fm because they wouldn’t make their iPhone app available outside the UK/US/Germany. Without that I just wasn’t interested. It wasn’t helped by the fact that [...]
I sort of bought the Loreena McKennitt Live at the Alhambra DVD in France the last time I was there. Mainly because it wasn’t too expensive, it had a free CD and I quite like The Mystic’s Dream. I watched it, thought the sound was great and then Christmas/snow and lots of bad things happened. [...]
National Concert Hall, last Thursday night. I’m usually there in time to play games on my phone or, if I’m really prepared, to do a little light knitting. Thursday nights, however, don’t work for this. I made it into the auditorium as they were closing the doors because I spent a very long time on [...]
This one may be best for Kevin I think.
I was listening to Acoustic Cafe on Radio Io today, through my iPhone. I tend to do it through the phone more often than not because the iphone application currently doesnt’ have ads, and while the Radio IO ads are not particularly annoying, it’s nice not to [...]
I am about to go back to the crochet which is not working out for me at all. But before I go, this is a route to escape the mundane of Ireland.
This is one of my favourite pieces of music; it’s about 10 minutes long, and it dates from 1975. I am not typically a [...]
I fell in love with Jean-Michel Jarre when I was just 14 years old. When I was 15, I got to go to Destination Docklands and that’s almost 22 years ago to the day last night when I went and got to see him for a fourth time. I still love him.
Last night was great [...]
A few weeks ago, Kevin left a comment on the blog to let me know that I might be interested in this gig that was playing at the Seamus Ennis Centre in the Naul. Or Naul which is how it appears on maps.
So I booked tickets for myself and my sister and her husband and [...]

It’s all kind of downtempo/glass of red [...]
You can’t hear it now but currently pouring out of my stereo is a piece called Ar Baradoz. You’ll find it here on Youtube, however.
The weather is sort of funny at the moment – it’s been really warm, last night, meaning I couldn’t sleep, and really cold now, meaning I wish I was asleep. It’s [...]
