Dublin, Cork, Kilkenny, Limerick, Copenhagen, New York, Los Angeles. The Vibe for Philo has come a long way from its humble beginnings 20 years ago. Not only is the Vibe taking to the road in Ireland this year, but tribute events will also be staged in America and the Danish capital. Few could have imagined the show growing into the global commemoration it’s become, taking in almost every venue in Dublin along the way – including a sell-out Point Depot at the 10th Vibe and attracting acts from 3 continents. Fans are coming from Holland, Sweden, Denmark, America, Canada, Belgium, Britain, and beyond with two Dublin hotels currently booked out with guests over specifically for the Vibe.
With the turkey out of the way rehearsals have been intense and sponsors Jim Beam have once again put together a choice selection of goodies to raise money for charity at the various shows. The Full line up includes, former Lizzies Eric Bell and Brian Robertson, with Jimmy Faulkner, Noel Bridgeman, Southbound Band, Trad Lizzy, Ex-Pogue Cait O’Riordan and Roadhouse, Glyder, Jimmy Coot and Shibata from Japan’s Lizzyboys (a memorable hit from the previous outing at Vicar Street) and surprise guests.
Tickets are available Nationwide from Ticketmaster and locally from Venue’s and usual outlets.
