From Nirvana at Sir Henry’s in 1991, to Bob Marley’s in Dalymount Park and Dolores O’Riordan’s first gig at with The Cranberries, we speak to some of those who can say ‘I was there when’…
Irish gig history
Every regular music concert attendee has that one gig where music was approached through the lens of another dimension. It might have been the time you witnessed a fired-up opening act inform the tone of an entire arena, or watched hometown heroes tear up as they watched strangers shout lyrics from the cheap seats. Some of these gigs might even have gone down in music history.
Now a new podcast is telling the stories of some of these huge moments in Irish music through the voices of the people who were there. For Dylan Murphy, the host of I Was There, the chance to share the untold stories was an opportunity too good to pass up on.
