Whoohooo - 30th Birthday Gig of the Century!

Shhhhh, this July I'm entering a new decade! I'm feeling old. This blog is making me feel young. Anyway when the wife entered a new eon we went to NYC and had a blast. Sooooo what do we do for mine!

Well heres the thinking so far! Let Ryanair tell us where to go! Pop in a random city and a date and look for cheap and cheerful. Prague looked likely, then Paris, then Oslo and even back to Amsterdam for some chilled out reflection!

Even more shhhhhhing now.....wife is a big Nanci Griffith fan, and she is playing a hotel up in Letterkenny Co. Donegal. Then it was confirmed that she will be playing in Galway too. We love Galway to bits. So bohemian and spontaneous. Anyway no decision was made!

Then on Thursday on one of my regular visits to the official Ben Harper tour page in the vain hope he might bring the band to Ireland I see an oasis....no not Liam and Noel.....I seen this....


Wed Jul 2 London, England Hyde Park Support to Jack Johnson,

Well you could have hung, drawn and quartered me and I'd have been still excited. Ben and Jack on he same bill. So as quick as McGuiver step one was, going to Ryanair.com ....whoohooo free flights to Stansted. Step 2.....Ticketmaster! Hmmmm Tickets currently not available. Hmmmmm no worries Ebay to the rescue! Bid in £100 for 2 tickets....bidding still at just £82 quid and at this moment in time there are just 21 minutes left in the auction! If you beat me I'm gonna be hunting you down.
