Anybody go to the gig at The Diamond in Ballymena?

I have read the odd MySpace comment here and there, but does anyone have a first hand experience to share with us?
Thanks for that Rog! Sounds like the ideal venue. Here are some pictures courtesy of Fiona's myspace, many thanks!

We had to travel light, so just a guitar, bass, a case of cymbals and some t shirts/cd's that the locals enjoyed haggling over.


Guessing the guitar was just a spare lying around 'just in case'

Here is some footage from the gig ...

Ace, I think you left out a letter "t" somewhere........


But 'genteel' doesn't have an 'i' or 'a' in the spelling!! Oh! and thanks for pointing me towards the video links!

Cheers Ace, I think I just about held my own!!


Mr McCoy, Robin and Bernie were all no doubt subdued by the Guiness and Jameson's supplied, no doubt you have put the distellery and brewery on stand by for their return visit!

Welcome to the forum Fiona, I look forward to hearing about the gig on April 24th. Thanks for all your kind advice supplied to me via your myspace, but my plans to attend have been thwarted!

Have an awesome night one and all!!

Sounds like a sweltering belter!
Here are some pictures, thanks to Fiona for letting us put them up here, will find some more soon, but in the meantime 4 to be going on with ...

Out of sight, but caught?



And bright onstage





Nice new jacket?



And it must of been hot, for it to have come off!

The Diamond should be on everybody's tour itinery,  great place, great people, and they even let me loose on the sound desk ! Sorry if anyone still has ear ache.
Fantastic audience, maybe next time I will train harder so that I can successfully carry Cheesey out of the dressing room.



Fiona, think McCoykini.................


If it has your endorsement, it must be a top place, and whose idea was it to let you loose on the soundboard? Come on own up whoever you are!
