King, Chuck Berry, and Max Wall) - who was Jools’ drummer until he retired in 2024.

Their shows last between two and three hours depending on the level of fever in the room. Most recently their sound has been enhanced and reinvigorated by the return of Peter O’Toole on bass, bouzouki and vocals. Drumming with the band these last ten years is Dave Clarke. Dave has been a drummer in Dublin since the beginning. His commitment to the beat is mesmerizing. His style has been a force in the direction of Hothouse Flowers today. Also playing with the band these days is Dorset man Martin Brunsden on double bass and backing vocals. His musicality adds yet another dimension to the ever evolving sound of the band. There is an unpredictable energy in the band that harkens back to the 'Risk' days. They call upon their grand repertoire to create a show that is unique to the time and place. No two shows are the same. Improvisation can come at any point and allow the men express their brightest and their darkest influences. 'Rock and Roll is not about safety or politeness, it is not about perfection either. It is expression and it is spirit.' Humour is also never far from a Hothouse Flowers night. They do not take themselves seriously however, there is no mistaking the musical integrity among them as they open up to each other in musical dialogue. Fiachna, Liam and Peter are traditional musicians. This allows for moments of ancestral connection. What was a second before a Doors-like workout, becomes an earnest and a timeless offering to the memory of Currachaí na Tra Báine. A song inherited by Fiachna describing the blow inflicted upon a community and a family due to drowning. This moment and moments like these set the Flowers apart from almost any other band of their time and trade. They are carriers of Culture and all of what that entails. Hothouse Flowers came out of tough times. They played the streets and brought the streets to the stages of the world. Individually Fiachna and Liam are enjoying a broadening of their horizons. Fiachna has been producing and presenting radio and television programmes and working as a composer of music for television. Liam has been collaborating with the Fabulous Beast Dance Theatre Company. Still Hothouse Flowers has not yet fulfilled her destiny. The possibilities are endless. The will is there. Ni fada go bhfeicfear.

Bernstein’s fast, sparkling and witty overture to Candide starts with a bang and never lets up. It quickly became one of his most popular works. Gershwin wrote his next concerto hot on the heels of the success of Rhapsody in Blue. Conceived as a New York Concerto, it intones the bright lights of Broadway and its exuberant rhythms represent the enthusiastic spirit of America. New York is also the backdrop for Bernstein’s On the Town. Jazzy riffs in constant motion conjure the youthful enthusiasm of the city so good they named it twice! Influenced by his eclectic background, Libertango symbolises Piazzolla’s bold departure from tradition. Its catchy bandoneon melody, syncopated rhythm, and rich chromatic harmonies made it instantly recognizable. Inspired by a Cuban dance, Márquez’s Danzón No.2 has a rhythmic quality at its centre with accents that shift throughout making it feel as if the tempo is constantly changing.

In comedy, ‘killing’ is a good thing. Everywhere else, it’s frowned upon.Jimmy has confirmed kills in over 50 countries and on 13 specials. Eyewitnesses describe it as ‘a brutal, hilarious, life affirming night out’. The brand-new show is packed with fast, dark one-liners about all kinds of terrible things. But they are just jokes. They’re not the terrible things.Jokes are like magnets. They attract some people and repel others. You can joke about anything, but not with anyone. If you’re attracted to Jimmy’s brand of comedy and think you can take the jokes, then by all means come out and play. If you think you’d be offended, then stay away. At this point, being offended at a Jimmy Carr show is like buying a ticket to a horror movie and complaining you got scared. Don’t be a dummy. Look, if you’ve read this far, we know you want to come. So hurry up and buy a ticket. It’ll sell out, so don’t miss out.Please note, a £3 ticket commission fee is included in the price of the ticket.

Blam! Joey Page is back. (Never Mind the Buzzcocks, Got a Problem, Mate podcast, face of microwavable rice). Look, Joey just wants to have a good time.

Yet this hilarious and lairy lad from the rubbish part of Kent keeps on trying his best to have a good time whilst side stepping the big questions, like: 'why are we all here anyway?', 'what will we all do when the world ends?' or ‘why does everything keep changing when we liked it how it was?’
