If you go to the Undertones website (www.theundertones.com) there's a link to an archived Dutch radio program with a recent performance.  Yes, it's not the same without Feargal, but it sounds really good none the less.  The new DVD (the John Peel documentary, plus their videos) is quite good too.

Which song is as good as teenage kicks?
   
maybe I overstated a little, but given that teenage kicks is one of the best songs of all time its a pretty high standard to live up to
 
 and I really think the first three songs and the last 3 songs on the new album are well worth going to hear live - Thrill Me is a fantastic song

Mankie is probably more likely to want to see 4 Way Steet, with the Bigger Lovers opening?

Saturday is definately out....it's the start of the F1 season and our company always has a massive party for it....attendance is compulsory for all sales staff so we can rub shoulders with the rich bastards of the metro-DC region. EUGH! Imagine me (for those who've met me) in that environment.

Oh you're just pissed off because you're not music savvy as me and never heard of The Undertones.  ;)  
 
 4 way Street!!!!  :eek:  Really?
 
 I make no apologies for my comment about them, now I know it's not some tribute band....I've heard quite a few of their songs on XM and they're all very good.

My sympathies.  Be sure to compliment the wealthy elite on their fine sport coats, khakis and boat shoes.

There will be more red worn that evening than at Old Trafford on any given Saturday.
 
 The ladies will be wearing their  body-hugging red Ferrari tops to show off their new boob-job, with platinum prancing horse earings, and the men will have their red Ferrari pit-crew polo shirts with collars turned up no doubt...with their Girard-Perregaux Ferrari F1, special edition watch to make it all come together. (markie would fit right in)
 
 It will be fun...so much fun.

Thanks Mankie, looks like it will be a struggle for mme to get to see the undertones. I guess if I hop in a cab at the end of the last lap..... I might just do that.

Bigger Lovers are the openers for a 3-band set?  Hmmmm, that's an important bit of info.  Thanks, Rhett.  But the ottobar show is cancelled.  All this back and forth.....
 
 Markie, probably good you can't make it to Undertones, as I'll probably be there!

 Not washing your pits?
 
 Asking were Fergal is?
 
 Asking which ones are twins?

All of the above, AND wearing my Barry shirt.
 
 You know, I think this is all really masking a fondness for me that is scaring you.....
