@IrishHeart Have fun. I first saw them on their Do or Die tour here in Europe and a couple of times after that. I always thought that Mike McColgan was their best singer, but Al Barr did a good job. Now with only Ken Casey singing, I'm not sure if I'd enjoy it as much.

@tody I know what you mean, but I think they still put on a good show and bang out a good tune. Hopefully they don’t disappoint.

@IrishHeart saw them twice, on the warriors code and meanest of times tours I think. Always a fun show, but I lost track of them after Signed and sealed in blood. May have to go back and listen to their later oeuvre. @tody I hadn’t realized Al Barr had left. I liked the combination of him/McColgan and Ken Casey

@Tago-Mago Al Barr wanted to take time out to help look after his mother who had been ill. I think it was left that he may come back to the band at some point in the future. Hopefully that is the case as I agree with @tody that they are better with him.

@Aetas I bought their latest, which I love, and bought a ticket for their Munich show even before that. That, plus talking to @seawolf about them made me revisit their catalogue, which reinforced their status as my favourite band of all time. Their progression throughout their career is fantastic, and I love every phase of it.

@mclaincausey glad it finally made it to you. Should make an excellent travel book

To anyone with apple music, there's a fantastic live session of Julian Lage in a trio format I highly recommend. It is in Dolby atmos so really sounds great on compatable equipment.

I did not realize until just now that Mike Watt has been working with this guitarist and different drummers, including on two albums Jim keltner
Good stuff. Kind of weird and chill.
