“With the Macklemore and Ryan Lewis gig just around the corner [July 10 Marlay Park,] here is some of what happened when they played Dublin last. The guys were over for the two sold out night in the O2 we filmed them over the two nights for their tour film.
“This is the cut we put together out of our own material. There is a longer version that explains the origins of the trad music used in Irish Celebration but its 12 minutes which is a bit of a stretch for the web….”

Oooh.

“I asked listeners to TXFM Drive to decide which country would come out on top in a battle of the bands and singers. Of all the remaining World Cup matches, no other two countries can offer up the same intriguing contest. While most of the music we listen to comes from Britain, the U.S., and of course our own country, there’s no denying that France and Germany have provided some quality artists over the years….”

You FIGHT decide.
