Went to see him in concert on October 24th (my 2nd time this year) and it was soooooooooooooooooooo much fun!
Fortunately there weren't any sound equipment problems so it started pretty much on time, but I had to get a taxi into town as there was severe flooding in many parts of the city. The driver even told me that if he was unable to get into town, he would bring me straight home but I was thinking, "No way! I've been waiting for this for months!"
Anyway, the setlist was quite different to the gig I was at back in March, but I still loved it. Patrick was his usual upbeat self and really made us all laugh - especially when he started pulling at his trousers (a pretty tight pair of Lycra trousers!) and told us that he was wearing underpants with birds on them.
He even told us about the award he received from Trinity College Dublin earlier that day, which was for 'Outstanding Contribution To The Arts' and said it's likely to be the only award that he'll ever win. I'm so happy that he got it as he truly deserves it.
He even performed a new song called 'Pelicans', which will be on the 'Brumalia EP' (out on November 28th) and when he performed 'The Future' everyone cheered when he sang the line 'And sweet dreams of Mother Ireland'.
I took several photos, but here are several videos from the gig:

Here's the setlist as well:

At the end he said that he will be back next year, so I can't wait to see him again!
