The voting only proves that those who went to Templehouse did not go to either of the Leonard Cohen concerts. Had they been to see Leonard the score would have been 100% for Lissadell. The greatest concerts ever held in Ireland. :lol:

Some people seem to have been busy, Lissadel is leading again (198 vs 139) :D
Easy to see you're a Ballymote man, Mike! You spelt Templehouse as is used to be. Wonder when/why it became Temple House? I'd imagine it would also be a nice concert venue.
For me, second greatest concerts ever in Ireland. But then you didn't experience Kilmainham!
Best wishes.

You are all gone quiet again. Write something to break the silence. Have any of you got the DVD of the 31 July concert yet?

Hi jdhayes,

DVD of the July 31st concert? Somehow I have a feeling it's only a European dvd. Would this be playable in the US? If so, I would LOVE it...and will pay whatever is necessary!

Thanks,
Diana
