G-Man Gig of the Week

I am torn this week as the one that I am most looking forward to does not really throw up any surprises as everyone knows that Bruce Springsteen & The E-Street Band are gonna be their usual jaw-droppin’, guitar-rockin’, show-stoppin’ selves and, after all their Glastonbury coverage I think it is safe to say that The Boss & Co. do not need any more help on the marketing side of things.

And so to the gig of the week!!! This Sunday night sees the amazing Deerhoof take to the stage at The Pavilion in Cork for what is expected to be one of the gigs of the Summer, if not 2009. A wonderful coup by the Word of Mouth boys and girls the band Pitchfork modestly described as : “The best band in the world” will finish off their three date Irish tour here after gigs in Galway in Dublin.

Support is provided by Ten Past Seven and Percolators.

The gig scene in Cork continues to flourish. ‘R’ word my ass….
