    Any of you dudes 'n dudettes at Final Fantasy on Sunday night in Whelans? He was amazing. Four foot-pedals, a violin and a drummer who wandered on for a couple of tunes. Amazing stuff. Just incredible. Really enjoyed it and particularly cos i hadn't heard really any of his stuff beforehand. Dublin Guitar Quartet who supported were ace too.

    f**king marvelous gig. I saw him open for Arcade Fire last May and he was wonderful then and he's wonderful now. I also picked up a copy of He Poos Clouds at the merch desk, it's far better than the first record. I spoke to Leagues O'Toole afterwards and he told me that they're bringing him back over in October or so.

    I'd hadn't really heard of Final Fantasy until now, but judging by the picture on the Gig page Unicron, it looks like he stepped out of the weird Japanese playstation game of the same name. How long 'til Sony issues a cease and desist order?

    According to the interview he had in the last Foggy Notions he's not too concerned as he has "no money" so there is no point in them suing. And he could always score one of their video games in compensation.

    I don't think he's even shown up on their radar. Part of the reason for choosing that name, he says in the Foggy interview, is that it gives him a kind of anonymity. Anyway, yeah, cracking stuff and looking forward to his next visit.

    great show and I'll go see him again when he returns. i had never heard anything by him before the gig and went purely on recomendation. i've now got both albums so hopefully I'll be more familiar with his work before his return
