  • Last night rocked at The Academy.
    I really do love music, especially when I see superb Irish talent. Last night I experienced three fantastic bands live: Codes, Fred and Bluemoose. Codes, the Dublin indie-electronica outfit kicked off the events at The Academy, Dublin yesterday evening. Bursting onto stage, albeit to a small crowd that soon grew larger, they kicked off with "This is Goodbye", their brilliant song, taken from their latest album "Trees dream in Algebra". They continued their set with the powerful tracks from their début release, crossing songs that were uplifting, passionate and wonderfully melodic. I was right up the front, against the barrier, enjoying the performance from thi...

  • It’s back. 4oD Returns to Ireland.
    Channel 4. One of the good guys in broadcasting. And, they've done another nice thing. They've brought back their streaming video service, 4oD, to Ireland. Richard Davidson-Houston contacted my friend, Shane McEntee, today via Twitter and declared the news, and I came to see the press release on the Channel 4 Products website. Alison Crowe, from Channel 4 said: As of this morning the Channel 4 On Demand service is now available for users in the Republic of Ireland.  The 4oD app used to be available but unfortunately we could not make the service on C4.com available immediately, because we were not able to differentiate between content where we had right...

Because I can. Now, that's geeky. But, there's nothing better than a day off, free merch, and something to gloat about to your IT crazy colleagues. Let's not forget, you can still vote on this....

  • The Nominees Are…
    Okay, they're in. Here's who you can now vote for at the MTV Europe Music Awards 2009. The nominees were announced at 12am this morning. Where was I? Eagerly anticipating them. In Short Lady Gaga and Kings of Leon are equal in nominations, with 5 each. Green Day, Leona Lewis and Tokio Hotel are the first three acts announced to perform at the event. Best Video is to be decided by the MTV Judges, but it's more than likely, I think, going to be Beyoncé's "Single Ladies". After all, it's not going to be Taylor Swift, is it? Sure, "Beyoncé has one of the best videos of all time". I'll post a list of my predictions another time after I've had a think about it, but...
