What a set he did play. His style of music is soft and easy on the ear and yet there is so much emotion in most of his songs. When he wasn't playing he was making us laugh with his cool wit and charisma.
I really enjoyed the gig, especially hearing his hate song which to me was hilarious. The stories of busking from country to country, Australia to Switzerland. All of these gave a real insight into the person behind the music and the life of this artist that has come from nowhere to dominate the airwaves, still remaining in the Irish top 20 singles.
The audience were asked to quiet down to listen, really listen to a few songs but easier said than done. As the Tayto ads say, 'there is always one', but in this case there was quite a few that just couldn't settle. It was a small bump on an otherwise enjoyable journey and I would recommend you catch the next gig.
