i read a review of a gig in dublin once where a mates band was supposed to have blown everyone away................... that band wernt even approached to play the gig!

I wouldn't be so surprised if it was for In Dublin or something like that; but it was the Irish Independent!

Not that I read that paper, or pay any attention to the reviews - but with its circulation a lot of people must.

The guy in question is actually a nice bloke, but it's complete bullshit for any journo to feel they have the right to review a bands performance when they don't bother staying for it all.

I mean, do reviewers for art exhibitions walk out after looking through a few pictures, or does a book reviewer write his piece after reading a few pages?
