3.28.2013 – The Thursday before Good Friday, here in Ireland. That night I went to Fibber Magees (aka ‘old’ Fibbers) on Parnell St here in Dublin, Ireland to watch an Evening of Rock & Roll bands, with the final band being a Rory Gallagher Tribute. It was a fun evening – with 3 Euro drinks, a good crowd (Friday being a day off for many, despite the ban on alcohol hitting at Midnight) and lots of great music.
The third band of the night was Specter. To say the least, after the first two bands, they were a bit of a shock, as we went from some Bluesy Jazz and some Indie Reggae sound to some seriously hard Metal in a matter of minutes. Because of the change over in the style, it was interesting to watch the crowd change from the blues / rock fans to the metal fans in a matter of minutes. Specter is made up of Noel Duignan – Vocals, Mark Lennon – Guitars, Dan O’ Neill – Guitars, Dylan Magner – Bass, Rana Rassouli – Drums. While I’m not quite into this type of music, the crowd was enjoying themselves very much, and there are many compliments on a great gig. They were fun to watch – and so was the crowd – there was lots of thrashing about and nodding, and headbanging as the band performed their new single unwhole.
