Way back in September 2004, I was coaxed by a good friend and musical guru to go to a gig that I was told would be a "Life changing event - like Al Green mixed with a bag of hammers".
On a typically lacklustre Dublin weeknight, I arrived rather unenthused at the Spiegeltent, a temporary venue erected in the IFSC docks as part of the Dublin Fringe Festival... and left inspired.
Having seen Jamie Lidell previously, one of the joys of returning is witnessing how those new to the experience react. You're compelled to tell anyone who has half an interest in music about what you've seen... but cautiously. Like being privy to a wonderful secret, this is something you earn.
