The Dublin Legends - '50 Years: Further Along The Road Tour'

Half a century ago, the Dubliners stood on Belgian soil for the first time. More than 50 years later, the Dublin Legends, the torchbearers of this legendary Irish folk group, return to the Lage Landen. With in their ranks singer/guitarist Sean Cannon, the man who was part of the Dubliners from 1982 to 2020. Als The Dublin Legends climb the stage, you imagine yourself in an Irish pub within a few minutes. The beating heart of the Irish cities and villages, where stories about tough sea dogs, fiery romances and unhappy loves go around while enjoying a pint of Guinness or a good glass of whiskey. No band can put down that authentic and infectious atmosphere with as much enthusiasm as the foursome Seán Cannon, Gerry O’Connor, Shay Kavanagh and Paul Watchorn. The real folk fans might know the musicians better under the legendary name ‘The Dubliners’. That name disappeared when Dubliners frontman John Sheahan quit in 2012, but the legend remained! Just like the insanely good pub atmosphere, which drags the listeners along, stomping and clapping, through rousing songs and melancholic ballads. The Dublin Legends bring Irish folk as Irish folk is meant to be. Pure and raw from the heart. They don't need shiny sets and special effects to make an impression; good Folk carries itself. And the gifted foursome proves that time and again when they shake up the room with their enthusiasm and rhythm. ‘Molly Mallone’, ‘Whiskey in the jar’, Seven Drunken Nights, The Irish Rover and ‘Dirty Old Town’, all classics that you just have to sing along to. Ten years after the 50th anniversary of the famous Dubliners, that famous name may be history, but the band has not lost a fraction of its unparalleled style. Folk with capital letters!
