Hey!
He's the singer in the band yeah. He does alot of covers and stuff, but sometimes I pop along too and the band play some of our own songs

ahh ok, any chance you could ask him to play something new for a change? i drink in there most weekends and every friday/saturday he's in he'll play the same songs on both nights. its getting pretty fucking annoying and good old heckling doesnt seem to work

haha!

I'll ask him for you. I dont think he cares too much really. As long as he gets paid, he'll play what the majority want him to.

He doesn't have a job, but he earns more than me in a week! Mad...

hmmm, thats a bit annoying actually. they used to have a folk band in most weekends who were great. to think that they now have someone in every weekend who doesnt really care is just a kick in the teeth. i supose its more down to the management now (fatties) but its also a reflection on your man who's doing it. if the guys getting paid for entertaining a busy dont care whats left for the wee bands who get nothing from gigs in dundee?

Well he probably would care more if people wanted to hear more from the 'wee bands' or our wee band aswell. To be honest, we play a few songs, but in the end, the Malones crowd only want to hear crap by The View or Oasis.
Unfortunately its the norm around some parts where people are are unusually close minded.

Quite sad to be honest.

If Keiran didn't play the stuff people wanted him to play, he wouldn't get the gig in the first place I guess.

If I hear "I've had the same jeans on" or "dont look back in anger" at another Malones night, I wont be back either to be honest.
