A Night for Christy

This week there is only 1 gig we will be featuring on the blog and that is 'A night for Christy'.

A night for Christy is a benefit night for Aslan front man Christy Dignam who is battling cancer. Some of the best and brightest that Ireland's music industry has to offer will all come together for this special night being held in the Olympia Theatre Dublin on Friday 21st June. 

Already confirmed for the gig are some big names including Paul Brady, Shane McGowan, Mary Black, Paul Walsh (Royseven), Danny O' Reilly (The Coronas), Tom Dunne, Ryan Sheridan and loads more. Even Jedward are getting in on the action. 

I'd post a link to Ticketmaster for tickets but this has long been sold out. Keep your eyes on your usual spare tickets buying websites like Toutless, Adverts and DoneDeal because this is one night not to be missed.

Opening the night will be Paul Walsh with his rendition of 'Gotta make it'. Later on in the proceedings U2 will perform 'This is' from their LA Studio and will be shown on a screen at the Venue. Others on the night will sing many more Aslan favourites including 'Down on me', 'This Time' and 'Chains'.

Not only will this be live in the Olympia but the gig is also being streamed live Worldwide. Over 100 premises around the globe will be streaming it live (some of the list below). An updated list will appear on www.aslan.ie later this week.

So, if you have tickets, don't lose them. If not, get to the nearest place streaming it or get your local to stream it by contacting mark@amamusicagency.ie 

Then on the night, get yourself your favourite tipple and raise a glass to Christy.
