Richard Hawley

This is brilliant! I just got tickets for Richard here in Cork at The Pavillion on Sat April 24th. This is great news. A great venue. I saw Gary Numan there not so long ago and Imelda May last year.
I will have to have another drink to get me to sleep tonight, so excited, Richard in my hometown, I cannot believe it, roll on April 24th.

Just got my 2 tickets too, 350 mile round trip from Dun Laoghaire but no matter. Can any Corkonians suggest suitable 3 star hotels in walking distance ( 2 miles ) of venue ? Caught The Olympia gig last Autumn so chuffed to be catching a 2nd gig so soon. What size venue is The Pavilion?

The Victoria Hotel is two mins walk from The Pav off the main street Patrick Street, this is a perfect location and it is cheap enough.
The Pav I think has a capacity of about 700 (saw Gary Numan & Imelda May there and also going to see Damien Demsey on Paddies Day), a very good venue. There is a bar next to the main venue where everyone goes before and after the gig also called The Pav.

If I'd know about this before I bought the Galway tickets...

Still, if I get a job between then and now I reckon I'll treat myself

Haven't been to Cork in years

Will be driving down to Richard's gig at Pav.
Does anyone from Cork know of a safe parking area very nearby?
Many thanks,

Paul Street Car Park is literally 3 mins walk from the Pav right in the city centre, open til midnight, cheap enough cost, very little street parking in that area. There is another car park about 5-6 mins away that has over night parking if that's what you need.

Almost definitely can't make it. Moving house hopefully at that time.

Thank you very much Denisec. That is very helpful. Many thanks again.

Does anyone happen to know if the current air flight problems are going to be a problem for the two Irish gigs or is Richard currently in England and able to manage crossing by ferry?

The Cork show is now completely sold out, nice one.

Denise, thanks for advise a while back on Victoria Hotel, great to hear show has sold out. Would you care to further enhance your reputation by suggesting a nice venue in the Patrick Street/Grand Parade area for an early bird meal before the show: Italian/Indian/Chinese/Steakhouse, all would suit. Hope to get to see you in Pavilion for a drink after to thank you for your helpful hints,

my bet is that he wont be giving you any more helpful hints if you keep calling him Denise, its only a weekend thing with him.

I saw an elsebound train, on the overpass
In the driving rain, every ticket costs the same
For where you can't go
Mustang horses, champagne glasses
Anything frail anything wild
It's the price of living motion, what's beautiful is broken
And grace is just the measure of a fall.

Is my face red? Apologies to Denisc for what the combination of dyslexia, poor typing skills and tired eyes can do.
