NO ENCORE

NO ENCORE once again turns back the clock in order to evaluate a select group of Irish albums from a given year.

The boys are back in town the studio together for the first time since the triumphant live outing at The Workman’s Club. Craig’s fresh from yet another wild stag weekend, Colm is basking in the afterglow of judging the Choice Music Prize and Dave… well, Dave is still pretty opinionated and possibly misunderstood. On this […]La entrada NO ENCORE #052 | I Like My French House To Be Slightly More Substantial se publicó primero en Headstuff. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

What can possibly be left to say about Ed Sheeran, ‘Galway Girl’ and its parent record? Plenty, as it turns out.

Well, as best they can at least… ACT ONE: […]La entrada NO ENCORE #051 | Beef With Hans Zimmer se publicó primero en Headstuff. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

It was a highly eventful evening in The Workman’s Club, Dublin, as NO ENCORE – The HeadStuff Podcast Network’s only music podcast – turned 50 in some style. There was NO ENCORE LIVE! Not your usual instalment, this episode takes in everything from the rather underwhelming Longitude line-up to how going to a Busted gig led to Jedward fans giving Dave […]La entrada NO ENCORE #050 | NO ENCORE LIVE~! se publicó primero en Headstuff.

There’s mere days to go until NO ENCORE LIVE at The Workman’s Club, so it’s little wonder that Dave Hanratty, Colm O’Regan and Craig Fitzpatrick are in a lively mood this week.

As ever, the roundtable select five Irish albums from the year in question and attempt […]La entrada NO ENCORE: THE REVISIT | 1992 se publicó primero en Headstuff. Hosted on Acast.

Colm O’Regan and Craig Fitzpatrick are again embarking on a two-man expedition through the murky waters of the music world this week, as the half-century mark draws ever closer for NO ENCORE (tickets for the landmark live show available HERE).

The streak is over. It was going to take something serious for Dave Hanratty to miss a recording for the first time, but a suspected bout of tonsillitis – [Dave note: a seven-hour spell in A&E confirmed that it’s actually glandular fever and I’m hating life right now] has felled the NO ENCORE mainstay this week.
