Live Review, Butterfly Explosion, Whelans



Artist: Butterfly Explosion
Source: Paddy Murphy


You gotta love the people behind Club AC30, everytime they put on a show they provide the goods, last time Drop-d was here for one of their gigs we were treated to the absolute awesomeness of Amuseparks on Fire. That night Butterfly Explosion provided the support, but all was not well.

Even when I spoke to frontman Gaz Carr,after the show, he said that he agreed with Drop-d's review compared to State's. Their sound was a mess that night and we were disappointed because we'd seen them a couple of times before. We blamed the new line up of the band. For tonight's gig I was wary of what was gonna happen.

First of all fair play to the band for getting a good sized crowd into Whelan's on the night before Paddy's Day. With many other good gigs going on around the city it was a testament to the band and their faithful troop of fans that they could get the numbers in in the night before Ireland's biggest day of drunken debauchery and mischief.
